Larry Kramer's Andromeda Site - Rating System

The rating for each episode is given in a table with zero to one stars assigned to each category.

These ratings are totaled at the bottom of each column. The overall rating following the table is an average of all nine ratings in the table.

If there is text in parenthesis for some categories it is a short hand explanation for the rating. Further detail can generally be found by referring to the text of the review for that episode.

Consistency

• How consistent is the content compared to that of previous episodes?
• While perfection is impossible this side of Heaven, it makes for a more enjoyable story and a more believable series if there is consistency week to week.

 Believability

• How believable is the content of this episode?
• Yes, I know this is a "Science Fiction" show. However, if the content of a show does not make sense in the context of the story/series then it is difficult to suspend disbelief and enjoy the show.

Well done/Enjoyable?

• How much do I (and hopefully others) tend to enjoy and appreciate the content of this episode?
• The most subjective criteria, but bottom line in a review one needs to say, "Is this something I liked and think others might also?".

" " = No stars (abysmal)

" * " = 1 star (poor)

" ** " = 2 stars (fair)

" *** " = 3 stars (good)

" **** " = 4 stars (excellent)
