stargate universe

[a.kitman]

so after alot of sucking its starting to get descent. biggest probem right now seem to be the writers want to tell a epic story, and the studio wants a episode by episode typ of show. and of course it feels halfassed.
i dont really care in what direction they go just pick one damn it.

so who else is following this show?

So far I never managed to watch an episode of it for more than five minutes. Looks like the poor man's version of nBSG to me (style-wise, story-wise I have no idea since I never watched it long enough to get a clue what it's really about).

[Heraclitus]

I had some patience for it, but every episode I watch leaves me a bit more underwhelmed.


They did do a good time travel episode tho.

[Tattila the Hun]

Good thus far. The daily survival routine has thus far been interesting, along with the, well, standard SG go to planet X, encounter threat, get rid of threat. Also, Lt. James' boobs.

I watch it, but I'm not sure how much longer. It's tough to like any of the character, and the writing is inconsistent at best. Many of the episodes just don't go anywhere, and there are times when I just wish the ship would explode. And the whole "ancient stones" travel is just bad... I thought this was "stargate"

[The Emperor Fabulous]

I'm auditioning for it next week. So I hope people keep tuning in

I'm also a fan of the show, and I don't really watch either of the other ones. I prefer serial instead of episodic television.

Also, Lt. James' boobs.

Pics plz.

Something tells me she'd be absolute crap in battle...

I have to agree. They tried to take Stargate and turn it into a cross between Star Trek and Babylon 5 which just doesn't work.

Young is no O'Neill.

Rush is as good as Carter or Mc Cay, but he is evil.

Eli is ok but no Daniel Jackson. Chloe is weak.

There is no Tilk. Not even a Ronin or Kayla. No aliens in fact which is too bad. Scott or Greer are ok but they don't give something different.

Johansen is a joke compared to other Stargate doctors.

The problem with this cast is that all characters are too grey and some are redundant. No strong female roles either.

Didn't we already have a thread on this show?

Eli is a bit of a joke too. He's portrayed like a teen ager but he's supposed to be 25. past time to man-up boy!

Young is also a little bit on the evil side too. Maybe they meant for him to be a leader thrown into a tough almost no-win situation like Admiral Adama, but he doesn't come across as the epic hero like Adama.

I think they need to try a few episodes without Young - they should have extended the mutiny across several episodes.

It has been o.k. so far. Rush and Young are interesting characters. I agree though that the writers seem reluctant to extend story lines across multiple episodes. That hurts the show.

I don't know about this crappy show, but Caprica is pretty awesome.
