After 6.5 million viewers across multiple platforms were left in shock following the season one finale, The Ark has finally returned to SyFy with an all-new chapter in this tale of intergalactic survival. When we last saw the crew of the Ark One, they were in incredibly rough shape. Viewers didn’t even know who survived being caught in the explosion of a planet. So ahead of the season two premiere, we here at That Hashtag Show went out in search of answers.
So, to promote the current season of the fan-favorite sci-fi series, we spoke to star Christie Burke and co-showrunners Dean Devlin and Jonathan Glassner about what is in store for the intrepid explorers of the Ark One. During our conversation, the EPs shared some insight into when they learned about the series renewal and what goes into the decisions regarding big character moments. Then, Burke discussed how the events of the season premiere will affect Sharon Garnet moving forward before the trio touched on what makes them most proud of the initially reluctant captain. Plus, the performer even teased a potential romance for Garnet in the upcoming episodes.

For more on the returning series, here is the official synopsis of The Ark:
The Ark takes place 100 years in the future when planetary colonization missions have begun as a necessity to help secure the survival of the human race. In season two, after the brave crew of Ark One reaches their destination and finds it uninhabitable, they must survive long enough to locate a new home for themselves and all the ships that follow.
New episodes of The Ark starring Christie Burke, Richard Fleeshman, Reece Ritchie, Stacey Read, and Ryan Adams air every Wednesday at 10:00pm on SyFy with replays available on Peacock.
