AlsoPaisleyCat 🇨🇦Hey fans of *The Ark* television show, last week’s Saturn Awards nominations include a the show’s second season in the ‘Best Science Fiction Television Series’ category.
There’s stiff competition with *Andor*; *Star Trek: Strange New Worlds* and the Apple triumvirate of *Foundation*, *Severance* and *Silo*.
Nonetheless, the nomination attests that this lower budget, often cheesy new take on the oft-used Ark-ship concept continued its improvement throughout its second season.
It’s relative ratings success and enthusiastic fans in the target youth demographic also demonstrates that there’s an audience for shows that feature young people coming together to overcome obstacles and uphold aspirational values against an arguably dystopian backdrop.
Its success may in particular bode well for Starfleet Academy.
The Ark’s continuing improvement also makes the case that fans of other Dean Devlin ensembles including *The Librarians* and *Leverage* may find it worthwhile to check out if they haven’t already.
Watch parties still being planned at @thearkchat
