I watched the first six, so far nothing. But in the "Andromeda" thread they said it does to some arcs and goes somewhere, so I'm still in waiting to see what, if anything, actually happens after six episodes.

I would recommend making it through at least the season. It does take a little time to get going, but things do happen.
I remember my incentive to get through early season weirdness was the first episode I saw was "Into the Lion's Den (Part 2): Wolf in Sheep's Clothing." Where Crais and Talyn blow themselves up in the Command Carrier, and John takes Scorpius on a joyride through a wormhole.. I caught it late at night on SyFy when channel surfing. I had to know what this show was and what this was all about. Never regretted a second.
Stick with it until you at least get to "Nerve" and "The Hidden Memory." They set-up the table for the rest of the series. The first season has its highs and lows, and the rest of the season even does its own table setting, but those two episodes are the ones that truly set the tone of the series from there out.
...coincidentally, those were the first two episodes I saw of the show (and I think out of order, so I was really confused at first) and they really grabbed me. But I maintain that they're very important for the overall show.

Watched another six yesterday, for the first twelve episodes of the show. If this was airing now as a new show, I'd have abandoned it during the first episode, but since it's not and I am told to wait, I'll wait some more.
