    Oh hell, that's a good point.
    We should enjoy the anti-thread for as long as it lasts, cause with season 5 we'll have to share with everyone else -> pro, anti and everything in between.

    Good comparison.

      Remain on-topic please. If you want to talk about fish, talk about how fishy the second half of S4 smells.
      SGA-1 is a big fish in a small pond. Yup, we can still keep the topic of fish connected to the show.

        I, for one, welcome over new negging, pro S5, overlords when S5 starts.

        Good comparison.

          Indeed we can. And the fun thing is that when a fish gets too big for a pond it either dies or gets transfered. Lets just hope this fish loses some of its dead weight and returns to being the small elegant fish it was in S1.

            But you know, it only seems big because the pond is small, if there were more good quality shows on SciFi then SGA-1 would be seen for what it really is - a small, unimportant fish that would no longer be allowed to live. It's sad but that's the way it is. It wouldn't even be good for cats, way too small and smelly for a cat to wanna touch it. My Max certainly wouldn't, he's very picky when it comes to his food, he's like me with TV shows. LOL

              Yup, a very good point. I thought the rules were blanket, for all sections not just the popular ones

                The main problem is that in this particular pond, the SciFi genre, most fish don't get the chance to grow and reach maturity since overzealous TV-Execs - who love their flawed ratings, despise SciFi, and love to count their money - kill these poor fish. And their only save haven, the SciFi Channel, has slowly become infested with these fish killer who have begon to replace the original fish with new, completely unrelated, species of fish, all in the name of ratings.

                I guess it's time for a new pond where these fish can be nurtured and reach maturity and I think it's also time for these fish to show some teeth and demand multiple seasons renewals instead of a per season renewals so they can finally gain a following once more and don't have to worry about getting killed while doing so.

                          SG-1 was a golden goose, they were reluctant to put it down, even when the eggs were starting to come out tarnished because they knew people would still buy them, even though the buyers were beginning to look elsewhere for their golden eggs they still made the poor bird suffer and they're doing it again with their new golden goose, even though it's turned into an old boiler at such a young age. The only thing to do with a goose at Christmas is stuff it with sage and onion.

                            That explains everything. Actually only why characters get fished

                              I wonder why their "golden gooses" became so dreadful, perhaps because the owners stopped caring about what it ate and thought that even when only feeding it junkfood it would still give them golden eggs.
