"Stargate Universe" Discussion/Speculation (Spoilers)

[xxxevilgrinxxx]

HAHA.

Thats not at all what I meant.

It really doesn't matter to me the persons sexual orientation. I should have just said getting intimate in other peoples bodies. When I reference homosexuals I was more talking about the political issues like.. Is it ok for a gay lady to maybe get intimate with her partner in a heterosexuals body on earth or visa versa. I wasnt trying to single homosexuality out.

gotta ask but why does the fact that it's a homosexual couple make it a political issue?

It may not be what you meant, but its how it came across to me. I don't see how being gay is a political issue. And there is a thread about body swapping into a person's body of a different sexual orientation. We've pretty much debated out this issue in that thread. I'll see if I can find it and edit this post a bit later.

True political is the wrong word. my bad. And it's not about being gay, it's about doing intimate things in the body of someone with a different sexual orientation.


So what did you guys think of the scene in pain. It didn't bother me too much because pain was such an awesome episode. However, it was unnessecarly graphic.

Also I think it's dumb that JM said SGU is family friendly and then they brag about how eye clawing the sex scenes will be.

A back and some arms, that's really as graphic as it got
I guess I don't really see the big deal?

I didn't see the big deal either. I have seen a lot worse than that on TV before.

If you live in certain areas of the country some people are popping out kids at 14 years old, so they know what sex is, lol. Times have changed, and the network is getting away with things that would of gotten them fined by the FCC if it was 10 to 15 years ago. Look at one of my favorite shows, Family Guy. What they do on that show is amazing how it gets aired.

Lol, I think it's hilarious all of the pot-shots they take at FOX in their own episodes and it still gets aired. Guess FOX learned after cancelling it TWICE only to have to bring it back.

Family Guy had the highest ratings for like the entire weekend in the 18 to 49 demo compared to all the other network shows. So Fox will take the abuse, lol. Sunday's episode was one of the best in a long time. Quagmire's Dad. lol.

(2) Which then brings a bigger question. Over the run of SG1, SGA, and now SGU, there have been ‘alot’ of deaths of Earth people. When you start adding them up, it easily adds up to the thousands. There are also ‘alot’ of people involved or who have knowledge of the Stargate program. Is there any plans for a big reveal of the program?”

1) I’m not sure what the official cover story was but, yes, something along those lines – possibly a heart attack followed by a closed casket funeral. As for Chloe – she’s probably attending a school out of state.

2) Depends who’s doing the planning.

Answer: Sorry, Rex. No idea.

Ludo writes: “Do you look for new actors for the SGU season to come?”

Answer: We do cast locally. Each audition is script-dependent of course.

Answer: Doesn’t look like it.

Answer: Yeah, I think it speaks volumes about the people who spend the greater part of their existence endlessly wringing their hands and stomping their feet over a show they claim to hate and don’t watch anymore. When I first heard about it, I simply shrugged and thought “Hey, kids will be kids.” And then I learned that the organizers WEREN’T kids but (presumably functioning) adults. Holy crap! That’s both scary, sad, AND a little funny. I would think said “adults” could direct their effort to more constructive pursuits like getting cereal pitchman Sugar Bear his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame or organizing a nationwide boycott of tomatillos just for the hell of it. Oh, and I’ll respectfully call bull**** on your “site dedicated to allowing fans to speak their minds”. I’d add “so long as their opinion parrot that of the site’s organizers.” Hoowee! A Japanese word comes to mind. Hikikomori. Look it up.

Do people not realise the difference between not liking something and a hate campaign.

I was shocked that the episode that did get pulled was about abortion Everything else is ok, but that was one step too far? Really? Reminds me of how Isaac Hayes was when South Park mocked one of his beliefs. I understand that in the US the far right-wing are anti-abortion, so it kind of makes sense, but I was still surprised.

I agree though, compared to the stuff Family Guy get's away with, SGU is a saint's show

JM, I think I love you, man! First green of the day and I can't even green you personally...it's the thought that counts, right?

Some people don't, no

Yeah all 3 shows saw negativity, but with SGU it has been the worse.
