Compared to SG-1 and Universe, where does Atlantis stand with you? I tried watching SGU, but I never made it past "Air, Part 3." For me, it's just SG-1 and SGA. That said, during the early years, I never thought the show would get a spin-off. It didn't strike me as Star Trek where there could be numerous spin-offs. For me, the appeal was the characters, so once the show is over... that's it, right? When Atlantis first aired, it just didn't hold a candle to SG-1. I liked it and all, but I just didn't see it replacing the older series. However, that changed very quickly. SG-1 got retooled for the Ori saga, and SGA got retooled by adding a ZPM, the Daedalus, and Colonel Caldwell. Suddenly, both shows were very different. From then on, SGA became my preferred show between the two.
I've excluded the movies as I want to focus on the three shows.
I don't want this to be a ranking thread. I want to focus on Atlantis, and I'd like to discuss why it's your favorite, 2nd favorite, or 3rd favorite. What were the show's strengths and weaknesses when compared to SG-1 and SGU?
