Stargate SG-1/Atlantis/Universe

[TheCorpulent1]

I was just gonna take my peers' word for it in here. Silly me, trusting you untrustworthy dolts!

 

[Superfreak]

Sounds like no one watched the teaser after the last episode when they said 'In two weeks, on the Stargate Universe fall finale..."

They took Thanksgiving off. Not much point in airing a finale during it.

we get them in Canada, but they are part of the Hyperspace weekly show that airs right after. Anyone in Canada that watches Space? How much do you hate the new host of Hypaspace? A.J. Fry... possibly the worst tv host in sci fi history: he makes me not proud to like my sci fi. He's such a loser. Atleast Kim Poirier had boobs.

Usually sci fi shows are good about having hot female hosts. If nothing else, they know how to cater to their audience.

they did, then they replaced her with this skinny emo dude, who is obsessed with Astroboy. I hate him, makes me ashamed to be a nerd (as far as TV preference is concerned)

[aaron]

yeah i dont like teasers either, like someone said,they give away too much

 

[Dr Lee]

Syfy were known to be quite bad with spoilers and Stargate teasers..... Carson's Return in SG:A was ruined by a Teaser exclaiming how we'd not believe the last five minutes of the episode

 

[wiegeabo]

For some reason, SGU is one of the only shows I watch the teasers for. I don't know why. I usually try to remember to change the channel with other shows.

 

[RetroNaz]

Its not perfect by a long shot, but I missed SG last week...

 

[aaron]

me too

 

[Dr Lee]

There was no SG:U last week... cuz of Thanksgiving

 

[aaron]

yep we know

 

[Dr Lee]

D'oh!...miss-read the post...

 

[aaron]

haha its cool dude, whats the av from?

dumb question prolly

 

[Dr Lee]

There was a short Live action short brought out beofre Halo : ODST was released.

Link

The shot form my Avi comes from near the end...

 

[aaron]

ohh the thing that the district 9 guy did?

 

[Dr Lee]

no, what he did was for Halo 3...the one before this one.

 

[aaron]

well that trailer you linked me to looks amazing

 

[Superfreak]

so, finally, a good solid episode. Really enjoyed that one. And a good cliffhanger.

I just hope that the general formula of this show isn't as shown in the first part of this season. I.E. great premiers and 'finales' with mindless filler in the middle.

think Greer is my favorite character now... I hated him to start with, but he's turning out to be relatively cool.

Greer kicks ass. Loved the scene where he was threatening to march in that trial and put it to an end.

Wray's starting to piss me off.

 

[RetroNaz]

Yep, Greer is finally starting to be a bit more likable.

All of the characters are starting to come into their own...even Chloe served a purpose lol.

Looking forward to the next episode!

Young's irrational behaviour at the end kind of ruined the episode for me. In the end he became the very thing he was accused of being during the trial. He sure has a temper on him to. This is the second time we've seen him beat the crap out of somebody.

 

[wiegeabo]

I don't know if I'd call it a temper beating up the man trying to break up your marriage (of course, we don't actually know if that's what Telford is doing, but they've made that the obvious conclusion so far) and beating up the guy who tried to frame you for murder.

I don't think leaving Rush behind was irrational at all. He can't keep Rush around, the man has made it clear he's going to do whatever he can to disrupt Young's command. And he's probably the most disruptive and demoralizing member of the crew.

Heck, Rush should respect the decision. Instead of locking him up and wasting resources on him, Young eliminated the problem. It's a logical solution.

 

[LadyVader]

Young is the one who cheated first so if the marriage is broken up, he's the one to blame. Even if Telford does have bad intentions, that doesn't make it ok to use somebody else's body to go and beat on the guy, if you're the one who ****ed up in the first place. Besides, you ARE living on the ship with the woman you cheated on your wife with AND have erotic dreams about her. So that makes Young a bit of a hypocrite.

Even more so in this episode where in the beginning he is charged with a murder he didn't comit, true, and claims that he wants everything to go by the book. Because even in space, in extraordinary situations, people should not abandon their principles. But then by the end of the episode he makes the decision to act as an executioner, by eliminating and undesirable element. That is the very same crime he was accused of in the beginning. If it wasn't ok in the beginning and he renounced his leadership because of an accusation alone, than how does it make it ok when he DOES do it to Rush?

If SGU is half the gritty realistic drama it claims to be than Young should lose all faith the crew have in him. it wouldn't be hard for Eli to figure out what happened, since he KNOWS somebody framed Young and then Rush gets mysteriously left behind.

Unfortunately even if Eli comes clean to the crew, Young still will undoubtedly have the support of Greer, Scott and the rest of the military.

Leaving Rush behind is at the same time morally reprehensibile AND an overall dumb idea because he is still the smartest guy on the ship.

The point here was Telford told Young's wife that he was Cheating again, which he is not. No one will let someone get away with telling that sort of lie when you are trying to make things work with your Wife. Dreams do not mean anything, everyone has dreams, if you hold people responsible for there dreams everyone would be in trouble

Even more so in this episode where in the beginning he is charged with a murder he didn't comit, true, and claims that he wants everything to go by the book.

If it wasn't ok in the beginning and he renounced his leadership because of an accusation alone, than how does it make it ok when he DOES do it to Rush?

Young wanted everything to go by the book because if he did not almost everyone on the ship would have doubts about him and probably think he did do it. You can not be in command and have respect and expect people to follow your orders if they do not trust you and think you are a murderer.

What he did with Rush on the Planet is a whole separate issue. He did not murder him, just exiled him. In fact he probably wasn't going to leave him there until Rush flapped his mouth

Two entirely separate issues.

If SGU is half the gritty realistic drama it claims to be than Young should lose all faith the crew have in him. it wouldn't be hard for Eli to figure out what happened, since he KNOWS somebody framed Young and then Rush gets mysteriously left behind.

It was stated in the last scene when Young asked Eli for the copy and to delete the original that Eli saw the entire footage of Rush framing Young. So its pretty obvious the Eli probably knows Rush did not have an "accident"

Unfortunately even if Eli comes clean to the crew, Young still will undoubtedly have the support of Greer, Scott and the rest of the military.

Leaving Rush behind is at the same time morally reprehensibile AND an overall dumb idea because he is still the smartest guy on the ship.

And has proven and well as stated he would do everything to undermine Young's authority.
