First off, let me apologize if there's a similar thread out there. The search function only gives me the forum homepage, so my chances of finding such a thread are low.
Secondly, I've been cruising around the forums for the past few months reading about what people have to say about the current SGA episodes and I'm finding a lot of negativity. People keep bashing episodes by saying that, "The CGI is horrible," or that, "the writers suck," and even, "*insert character's name here* would never do or say that!"
Lets take "Remnants" for example. People have said that the episode resembled Star Wars too much with Sheppard losing his hand and Koyla looking down on him from the cliff's edge and that the whole "Sheppard Story Line" would never have happened because he knows Koyla is dead and that the Genii could never know where Atlantis is. (This is not the only episode--just one I can easily remember).
Now don't get me wrong, I'll admit that SGA has had a few stinker episodes but are the viewers becoming to serious when it comes to watching SGA? I have enjoyed just about every episode of Stargate there is and it's because when I watch Stargate, I throw reality out the window and dive right into the Sci-Fi that is Stargate. Doing this allows me to take in everything that's given to me on the big screen and appreciate SGA so much more. It seems to me, however, that some people are looking for an excuse to bash SGA and in doing so, they miss out on the Stargate experience.
So, are the viewers too serious, or am I just not watching T.V. the right way anymore?
