Here it is. There's no loss. Think about it, in sg-1 or sga, humanity, or earth as a whole, never got hit or attacked in any meaningful way, and almost everyone comes back all happy and smiles. There's no big loss, no massive tragedy to change the scope of the story. That's why it won't be dark, because I doubt there will be a tragedy big enough to change the scope from what atlantis is.
BSG started with a huge tragedy. They were nearly wiped out, that makes things pretty dark, set the tone for the whole series.
Wright, Cooper, and company would never go that direction. So those of you worrying about it getting dark, I don't think it'll happen. Look at Voyager, it was a similar deal, a crew that can't get home, well, the show wasn't really that dark, it was more optomistic.
