Stargate SG-1/Atlantis/Universe

[Superfreak]

Exactly. I think the new schedule is stupid for a number of reasons, but Sci Fi seems determined to ruin everything good on its schedule. What they're doing with Battlestar Galactica still boggles my mind.

For BSG it makes sense. It's a long time yes, but I feel it's better than a 3-4 month break in the middle. Basically, it gives the writers less opportunities to do big cliffhangers. And the BSG ones are the worst. Waiting 6 months to see wether or not Galactica and Pegasus were gonna duke it out was terrible. I much prefer getting the final 20 episodes, in 20 straight weeks.

as for SGA, I'm not really concerned if it is driven into the ground. The show has so much potential, that they just never seem to tap into. The show needs to get a little more serious. SG1 was the same way at the beginning, but once Daniel really died for the first time, the show really picked up.

it's what I don't like about SGA... it's too fanciful. SG1 had a good balance of humor and sarcasm, as well as the other stuff. But SGA is like slapstick in comparison. I'm refering to the 'not taking itself too seriously' aspect of SG1. SGA don't seem to take itself at all seriously. That's what really pisses me off about the show. And other than Taela, Ronin and McKay and Zilenka, I pretty much hate the rest of the cast, IMO, they suck. I'll keep watching and discussing, but SGA is definately a show of secondary importance

Looks like the second episode of season 4 has been leaked aswell

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Is it also incomplete?

 

[Happenstance]

Without sound effects again yes

 

[taintedFB]

NO thanks. I'll wait for the premiere.

 

[GhostPoet]

Been reading about Atlantis...sounds like some great changes!
I love the cast changes...and the fact the show is going down a darker route is especially good to me...just as long as they can keep the humor.

 

[PuddleJumper67]

Has anybody seen the Ark of Truth trailer or the Continuum featurette? What do you think?
Both vids are at http://stargate.mgm.com/video.php

I can't wait for the new season. First time I've really been excited for Atlantis since its premiere. I can't wait to see how Carter meshes with the rest of the cast. It's a shame that Weir's getting the boot, but she really wasn't much use in her post in the first place. She's a good leader, but her skills never contributed much. All the Atlantis crew does is make enemies everywhere, it seems; no need for a negotiator in those circumstances.

I know I'm gonna catch flak for this because I'm a guy, but is anyone else struck by how amazing Carter's hair looks? Maybe it's because I've always thought she's had spectacularly awful haircuts in just about every SG-1 season, but her hair looks fantastic in the Atlantis previews I've seen so far.

tealas aways been hotter

 

[LexCorp]

Awesome a SG thread. I love this show.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

tealas aways been hotter

I agree. But Teyla's always had good hair, too. This is a first for Sam.

 

[Dr Lee]

If you put Keller, Carter and Teyla in a room i'd probably go for Keller, not Sam or Teyla....

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'd have to take a moment to decide between Teyla and Keller. I'd probably go with Keller too, though.

Teyla is an easy win for me

 

[LadyVader]

I've always believed that the men in the SG shows are hotter than the women. I mean, Teyla, Carter and the rest are pretty, but you can't say they're gorgeus (except maybe Adria).

Now, Ronon, Daniel and Baal are all really (and I mean REALLY) handsome men. So in that sense I consider myself lucky.

Oh yeah SG dudes are respectible role models...Teal'c rules.

 

[Happenstance]

Keller for me without a doubt. Never liked Teyla, plus she wears a wig.

Good wig

 

[TheCorpulent1]

She wears a wig?

 

[LexCorp]

She wears a wig?

I just think she would take it harder than the rest.

 

[Dr Lee]

I don't think she wears the wigs any more, Not sure why they had her wear them anyway......

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Just read some old interview with her and it turns out it's because her hair is naturally really dark, so rather than dye her hair all the time, they went with a wig. I don't get why Teyla couldn't just have dark hair, though. Dr. Weir was originally blonde, yet they had no problem leaving Torri Higgonson's hair alone.

 

[Happenstance]

I saw a picture of her once in a sci-fi magazine with her real her, it looked absolutely awful.

cowards, you are afraid of the jungle love. Fitness is what I'm after, Teala trumps keller on the 'be able to rag doll me' level
