It is a good show, in spite of Sorbo rather than because of him. After Trek TOS, The Great Bird had material that he tried to turn into series, but only got as far as a film & a pilot. Those were Genesis II & Planet Earth. They didn’t go where he hoped they would go, but after he died his wife Majel Barrett took that material about Dylan Hunt & divided it. One became Earth Final Conflict & the other Andromeda.
Both shows shift gears a lot before they find themselves, so some seasons may be preferred over others since some of the changes in tone, cast & character design are very radical. Each show wasn’t short on its own ambition.

It started out well but that last season, where the “already pushing the Sorbo saturation limit” became “Sorbo overload” really kinda messed things up for me, as did the “Hercules in Space” plot/narrative.
The show was at its best when it was focused on restoring the Commonwealth and coping with the Magog threat…kinda like ST: Discovery last season, restoring the Federation and dealing with the alien species accidentally destroying planets after The Burn.
But by the Great Ones (Roddenberry and JMS), I can’t watch anything with Sorbo in it anymore after suffering through his Christo-rightwing fanaticism on Twitter for so many, many years. Shame too, he was never a very good actor, but he was perfect for Sam Raimi’s Hercules.
