Legal Battle Could Determine Futures of 'Andromeda,' 'Mutant X'

Quote:

CHICAGO (thefutoncritic.com) -- The future of syndicated dramas "Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda" and "Mutant X" may be decided by the legal system, according to documents released by both series' U.S. distributor, Tribune Entertainment.

The news comes on the heels of last week's closing of Fireworks Entertainment, the Canadian company which produces both "Mutant X" and "Andromeda" (read the story). Said development caused production on both shows to be halted indefinitely, calling into question the fates of each.

All I have to say is

Mutant X is done, according to the cast. And I remember reading somewhere that this was going to be the last season of Andromeda anyway.

Andromeda could have been something special had these schmucks not got their hands on it. The acctual premise and some of the people in it were quite interesting, the problem being that tribune made it stink.
