- TriviaIn a recent interview, Eva Habermann revealed that the first time they stopped using doubles for her nude scenes and she went topless herself, one of the technicians told her "Your body looks far better than your double." She thought it was such a sweet thing to say. But she joked that these days if a technician or any other male crew or cast member said that to an actress, they would probably be fired and shamed all over social media.

- Crazy creditsAll Universes, characters depicted, names used, and incidents portrayed in this film are fictitious. No identification with actual persons is intended nor should be inferred. Blah, blah, blah--
- Alternate versionsIn season 2, episodes "The Web"/"The Net" contain mostly overlapping material but told from a slightly different perspective. But only "The Net" has a definitive conclusion so the US Sci-Fi Channel decided not to show "The Web" at all.

Featured review
Without giving too much away, this is a great little series that was cut too short.
In the vast ocean of blandness of (sci-fi and) regular television, this is easily the most enjoyable show I've ever watched.
As counter to the stuffy, sterile and stale space operas of the Star Trek series as this could be; its a refreshingly imaginative take on the wandering starship plot.
This show is either hit or miss with most people. The reason for which is likely that main writers are German and Canadian.... and a good chunk of the humour is regional/cultural in flavour and taste. If you love absurd, bizarre scenarios and a touch of dark humour you'll love this show.
It's a mix of the original Star Trek series, with a seriously dark and foreboding air to it; with hysterical and upsetting plots and characters that keep you from feeling secure.
No Disney endings or Rambo hero's to save the day. Just people being people... and a hint of something deeper.
