The series is set thousands of years in the future, and revolves around the Systems Commonwealth, a constitutional monarchy based in a distant star system called Tarn-Vedra. Humankind is a part of The Commonwealth, having been discovered by its members thousands of years prior. The Commonwealth is based out of three galaxies; The Milky Way, Triangulum Galaxy, and the Andromeda Galaxy, located 2.7 million light-years from the Milky Way Galaxy. Ships travel from one end of the Commonwealth to the other through slipstreams, following pre-guided roller coaster-like pathways through the cosmos to and from their destination.

After the 1994-1999 era when Kevin Sorbo was the legendary Hercules, he became Captain Dylan Hunt from 2000 to 2005. He surrounded himself with an attractive team and experienced five years as a sci-fi hero. Beka Valentine (Lisa Ryder) became his badass sidekick, Andromeda Rising (Lexa Doig) had her own personality, and one of the show's most interesting characters was the variable Trance Gemini (Laura Bertram), and of course there was never a shortage of popular Canadian faces like Monica Schnarre and Dylan Bierk as guest stars. Kevin Sorbo was also a producer on the series, reuniting with his acting partner Michael Hurst from Hercules, and eventually handled the conclusion of the series in a full fifth season, even when the original production company went bust, taking with it, for example, the never-finished Mutant X series.
