Can't wait, have been needing a Stargate fix ever since SG Atlantis went off the air. Bounce

I WANT ATLANTIS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SGU has been horrible. I have watched every episode in the hope that it would get better. So far, It still sucks. I am giving the show 2 more episodes before I give up and take it off the DVR list.

I hate this crap. Why make a damn soap? Keep this crap in Battle Star Crapica. Stargate is meant to be a fun show that actually cares about the science. I hate that they don't even mention this issues with special realitivity.

I am just baffled by techno jargon being taken as caring about the science. Is it the staff weapons or the wormhole tech that is so caring? The sling a wormhole around the sun to travel back in time?

I don't see anything that isn't scientifically probable about the staff weapons or wormhole tech. The "wormhole tech" is based on scientific theory. They have to take some liberty for dramatic effect, but the base ideas are scientifically sound. Atlantis was the most scientificly sound of the three series.

I have the last two sitting on my DVR. I really hope they are beyond love triangles via the stones. That and it won't be back until April 2nd, but did get renewed for a second season.

APRIL? Sheesh, I don't even know if I'll remember the show by then.

Almost everyone in the show is an annoying bastard. He is actually one of the least annoying to me. Though, playing with the stupid (can't remember name) camera things does get annoying.

I'm glad Rush is stranded. I hope it means he is dead and Eli has to step up and be lead, or that Rush fixes the crashed ship and something happens off the Destiny. But in reality, even if something decent happens, it's still a damn soap.

So far this is SGU is worse than Star Trek Voyager. I though that would be the worst case when they announced the show.

I read a synopsis of an episode to come and it said something to the effect of "This episode focuses on Rush dealing with the rest of the crew." So somehow he gets back. Which I'm not personally a fan of. But oh well. The show is getting old...

Farewell SGU. At first we found you annoying and depressing. Yet you managed to grow on those fans who stuck with it and got to like you. Sadbye

Dontknow What? It's fitting to end it with the thread it started with.

The title did say 'Stargate Universe starts tomorrow' before I bumped it.

Oh, so it ended? I wonder what they're going to do next, if anything...

I watched the first few episodes, but it felt so completely opposite of SG-1, and whatever I saw of Atlantis. I missed the humor and the lightheartedness - it just felt like a Sci-Fi drama. I was so sad to see my favorite show replaced by this. Sadwalk

I really wonder what is next in their plans. Scratchchin
