What's Next on SYFY's The Ark? Christie Burke & Stacey Read Tease Season 2 Twists (EXCLUSIVE)

As a longtime gamer and avid science fiction fan, I can’t help but be thrilled about the second season debut of SYFY’s The Ark. Last season left us on the edge of our seats with the dramatic cliffhanger finale that had me biting my nails in anticipation. The fate of many crew members was left hanging in the balance, and the bigger goal of colonizing a new planet for Earth’s fleeing refugees seemed to be in peril.


The second season of “The Ark” on SYFY, which has been highly anticipated by viewers after the thrilling conclusion of its first season, will make its return on July 17. The long-standing curiosity and suspense among fans regarding the consequences of the series’ shocking finale will finally be resolved.

As a fan, I can’t help but recall the nerve-wracking cliffhanger in Season 1 when the Ark One and its crew were on the brink of disaster. The sudden explosion caused chaos and left several crew members fighting for their lives. It was a heart-stopping moment that put the entire mission of colonizing a new planet for Earth’s refugees in jeopardy. In essence, this catastrophe could be the end for the Ark One and all who are aboard.

As a dedicated fan, I can’t help but imagine the intensity of Season 2, with the fires continuing to blaze, leaving Lt. Sharon Garnet in a state of heightened alertness. As the fearless leader of Ark One, she must orchestrate an immediate rescue and recovery operation right from the new season’s start. Amidst the turmoil, will Garnet manage to find some time for relaxation and rejuvenation? I had the privilege of catching up with Christie Burke, who brilliantly portrays Garnet in the Twilight Saga, to uncover some intriguing insights!

The Ark’s Christie Burke on playing Lt. Sharon Garnet: “She wants to save them all!”

Lt. Garnet has been the compassionate and impartial leader of the series since “The Ark” was introduced last year. This role demands her constant attention, making it a 24/7 responsibility. Burke’s character often faces pressing issues on the ship, leaving little time for Garnet to relax privately.

In the role of commanding a damaged spaceship, putting aside your own daydreams is simply expected. However, Lt. Garnet, as portrayed by Burke, may still take a brief respite during the challenging decisions she encounters in Season 2 of “The Ark“.

In Season 2, she comes to understand that this team is like a family to her. It will be significantly more challenging for her to remain unbiased and uphold moral principles while deciding who to rescue, as she grows attached to everyone and wants to save them all (SYFY WIRE reported Burke sharing). Essentially, it’s a dilemma of “save one or save them all.”

She remarked, “However, what I enjoy the most in this season is not just observing her in romantic scenarios. It’s intriguing to witness Garnet possibly developing feelings, which adds depth and complexity to her character. The writers have produced some remarkable content for Garnet this year, allowing us to see beyond her role as a leader.”

As a longtime fan of “The Ark,” I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension as we head into Season 2. Last season left us with a cliffhanger that had me on the edge of my seat, and I’m eager to see how the story unfolds. But having followed this show for years, I know that not all stories have happy endings.

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but express my excitement over the unique connection that sparked between Alicia Nevins (played by Stacey Read), the eccentric Ark One engineer, and Angus Medford (Ryan Adams), the passionate compost and cultivation guru in charge of the ship’s food production. In the first season, their adorably awkward romance captured our hearts as they navigated their way through quirks and nerves.

In the second season of “The Ark“, viewers will undoubtedly uncover the answers themselves as the story unfolds. However, as SYFY WIRE was informed by the show’s creators, be prepared for an exhilarating and emotionally charged journey through space.

As a dedicated gamer, I’m thrilled to share my anticipation for this upcoming season. You’re in for an emotional rollercoaster ride – trust me, you’ll be feeling it all! Following the heartwarming reactions to Alicia and Angus from last season, I’ve received countless messages from fans expressing their admiration for our show and identifying with the characters. So, here’s hoping that this season will bring more of those cherished moments for you to savor.

Regardless of who survives the challenges coming up in Season 2 of “The Ark,” Burke suggests that Lt. Garnet’s leadership will be put to the test, potentially revealing her more human and imperfect side. As Burke put it, “I really enjoy that she’s not perfect. She makes mistakes, but she’s quick to acknowledge them and apologize when necessary.”

Fortunately, there’s no need for anyone to apologize that The Ark is prepared to continue its critical mission of maintaining hope for humanity in the cosmos.
