Hi all, maybe this community can help recommend some new shows. I'm looking for Star Trek-like 'world-of-the-week' stuff.

I've already seen the following:

The Orville
The Expanse
Battlestar Galactica
Farscape
Babylon 5 (I forgot that I never finished it, so it's going back on the menu)
Stargate SG-1 Quantum Leap (looooove Scott Bakula)
Doctor Who (Not all of it, but pretty caught up since Eccleston)
Firefly
Sliders
Foundation (really enjoyed this one, especially the Cleon clones storyline)
Andor (not a big Star Wars guy, but I really liked this series)

Is Andromeda worth watching? What else is out there?
Thanks in advance!

This might be a reach out of /10, but my wife and I are about a dozen episodes into "Deadwood" (HBO Western from the early 2010's?) and I can't help but let her in on how it reminds me of DS9 in how every character is fleshed out in this backwater outpost. It's so good. Naturally she just looks at me like I'm speaking some dead language, but for any DS9 fans, cheggitout

Deadwood is great, Ian McShane is a standout! I also loved him in American Gods.

I can definitely see the DS9 comparisons.
