Originally posted by belanna30 View PostI'll say that when I started watching the show, I was curious. I'll admit that SGA lost my interest towards the end. Now, watching SGU I am starting to like it more and more each week. My hubby (who hasn't liked the Stargate franchise since O'Neill stopped being a regular) LOVES the new show. I think he's found a kindred spirit in Eli. I think some of the characters need work (Chloe being the biggest offender in my mind) adding more depth. Truly though, Tamara I think has a lot of potential as well. I look forward to every new episode to see what happens next and think the new format is a breath of fresh air.

I've probably been brainwashed by SG1 and SGA, but I keep expecting an external "bad guy" because I always thought of Stargate as having the "other" to fight against. For me, not having that just makes SGU pointless. And it needs more off-world episodes/time.
I know SGU is supposed to be more BSG-ish, but that kind of sci-fi bores me silly. So I guess I don't think of SGU as part of Stargate, because it lacks those things I loved about the other two shows.
and then... we get mindless Earth/body-swapping/angst/who-stole-the-extra-rations garbage.sigpic

Anyway, my opinion is pretty much still the same, I watch it for the sake of watching it, if it got cancelled tomorrow or i never saw the second half of season 1, it wouldn't kill me or anything, just another "meh" that never gets resolved.

I want to like it, yes I do...but.... The problem isn't the "science", it isn't the ship or the predicaments they are in or the nick of time reprieves. No, it isn't anything like thar. It is simply because I don't give 2 cents for any of the characters. If one of them must die it is OK with me and it hardly matters which one. I still keep tuning in hoping that there will be some magical chemistry that will suddenly connect but for now it is just background noise while I work on my notebook.

They’ve said that the direction changes in the second half of the season which is what often happens in arc based shows, they follow the needs story and can often change in style, formula and pacing over seasons. Also even if they wanted to change the back half of the season because of viewer response they couldn’t, because they had already filmed the majority of the season when it began to air. The changed was planned, they’re following the style of the shows like the Wire, introducing the characters and the world they live in the early episodes before the starting the meat of the story.My FF.netStories -Stargate Atlantis Allies-Colonel Ted Hasluck Bio
