    A Stargate Series I might actually watch? Oh my!

    I loved the original movie. I HATE all the series though. But theres a new one starting, and it looks like they are pulling a BSG. It actually looks tolerable!

    I dunno if itll end up being any good, but we'll see. Millions of people will watch it anyway though, because Stargate has its own following of rabid nerds.

    I'll let Smarticus do most of the rebutting here, but I'll say that Stargate has been a passable sci-fi franchise so far. It has been feeling a bit weak over the last two or three years though, whether or not Universe will feel fresher I don't know. I mean Atlantis was pretty good in the first season but then started to run out of steam by the third season. I don't have cable, so I won't be seeing it for a least a year (local syndication does air Stargate, but always the previous season).

    "We'll beam you up to our spaceship." Ha, classic O'Neil moment.

        I liked the movie and SG-1. Atlantis not so much. And the cartoon may as well not have existed at all. I'll give Universe a try and see what happens.

          I used to really like the movie, now I look back and it's so hokey and stereotypical Hollywood stuff.

            Even so, it's done with style. Normally, I dislike the whole "alien astronauts" idea, yet Stargate's entertaining enough that I watch it anyway.

            Are Smarticus and I the only two people around here who actually like Stargate?

              Richard Dean Anderson was the only reason to watch stargate really. Without him it's barely tolerable. But yeah, I have seen the complete series really only up to the point at which he left, then I stopped caring.

                I think its just us orius.

                It premiers this Friday, October 2nd with the pilot episode Air (pt 1 & 2). I think part 3 will be the following Friday, or maybe they will show all three in a row.

                I plan to give the show a chance, even though I stopped caring about BSG past season 2 or so.

                I've seen every episode of SG-1 and Atlantis, I hope this one doesn't ruin it all.

                    And it has nothing to do with the snake I put in your head.

                      Then that symbiote poison I accidentally released five minutes ago won't be a problem, right?

                        Not with the enhanced replicator blocks I've been working on, no.

                          I saw it, and didn't like it. Interesting concept with the ancient ship and all, but it feels way too much like Vorager Startrek.

                          The drama was overly forced and badly done. The characters are more annoying then interesting.

                            It was... very average. Which is a little better than I expect from Stargate.

                              Since there is nothing else on television, besides Psych, I'll watch it. I'm going to give it a chance. I only just watched it (DVR for the win), so I'm not really sure how I like it.
