I've been very excited about StargÅte: Åtlantis, as a scifi show I think it goes even more techno and scifi than SG-1 could, yet the concept and quality is guaranteed under the StargÅte header. So far it's been both exciting and pleasing to watch, they've managed to make something new and interesting out of the old and so loved - I think we have a keeper!
Anyway, to my question ..or ponderings, whatever you want to call it..
How do you see and feel the new cast? Do you think that they have depth, credibility and, most of all, room to develop from where they are now?
To me, Shepherd, although not an exact copy, somehow reminds me of the good ol' Jack O'Neill and I'm sort of waiting to see where the character goes from there.
Beckett is something new, a little edgy and unusual, he seems to be a little out of place and that makes him a very interesting character to be watching - and to be listening to, thanks the adorrable Scottish accent!
I find that Weir and Teyla are both looking for their places as are everyone else, but since they are the leaders of their people, it shows even more. It's also very cool to have 2 strong leading female characters, scifi has always been male dominated and I really can't see why!
Anyway, here are my initial thoughts on the show's cast.. and I'd love to hear yours!
