There are a variety of reasons I'm dubious about SGU.
The core one for me is my worry about the shift in identity of what is Stargate as a show, but I've discussed THAT to death.
Failing that, I think what worries me most about this premise, out of the tangible info we've been given, is the fact that it's on a ship. The idea of them being stuck at the farest regions of the universe could lead to awe inspiring scenes, the actual SGU logo with the nebula is evident of this. There could be some ASTONISHING sights, particularly if we ever see the absolutely edge of the universe. And I don't mind a present day contingient not being able to contact earth again.
But WHY a ship? Why make it ship based? Why space battles? Why can't they just be stranded on another planet out there? It's the ship, at the heart of it, the ship and the ship alone which is at the root my misgivings of SGU.
What about you guys?
Feel free to discuss or contribute your own personal grievences.
(And for the record, this isn't an "Anti" thread)
