- Commander Kelly Grayson (Adrianna Palicki)
- Lieutenant Gordon Malloy (Scott Grimes)
- Lieutenant Commander John LaMarr (J Lee)

Lieutenant Alara Kitan, who was loved by many, died in the second season. When asked about the possibility of her appearing again, the executive producer said that they would love to bring her back.
