Perfecto!

Good Cliffhanger or Bad Cliffhanger??
SGU obviously does not follow the same formula as SG1 and Atlantis where cliffhangers are what I call "Event based" Cliffhanger, where the characters are dealing with an outside force (Gould, Wraith or a Storm). SGU is much more character based and in the sense of a "Character based" Cliffhanger Justice was very good IMHO.
I do think as the series develops the characters will find their place and we will see something closer to the other SG series but still strongly influenced by how the characters stay sane.

The conversation Rush and Young at the end, where he told Young he wasn't a good commander because he couldn't do what was necessary.
I think if and when Rush does get back, he likely won't expose him... but tell him he finally had the backbone to do something, and then they'll split and go back to business as usual stuff.
This conversation and outcome just fits the characters more then him exposing Young for leaving him on the planet.

Seriously, Stargate characters are supposed to be people who you get attached to and root for. People you can stand behind. All I know is O'Niell or Shepard wouldn't have left a man to die of starvation and heat stroke on an unreachable planet, no matter what. My opinion of Young as a person just dropped off radar.
if you want to watch a show where the good guys are all good and the bad guys are all bad and there's no gray area, then go watch reruns of sg1 and sga
SGU is far closer to reality in terms of the characterizations being played out on screen than ANYTHING we've seen in the previous 2 series...
and as a note: O'Neill has done far worse than Young
O'Neill has MURDERED people on-screen in SG-1
and, no, i'm not talking about Jaffa dying in a firefight, or blowing up goa'uld system lords
i'm talking about actual unnecessitated murder
Young has yet to murder anyone
just remember thatColonel Jack O'Neill: So what's your impression of Alar?
Teal'c: That he is concealing something.
Colonel Jack O'Neill: Like what?
Teal'c: I am unsure. He is concealing it.

Originally posted by jelgate View PostMid season finales do tend to have that but its not a requirment. All that is required is for it to be the last episode for the break to be consider a mid season finale. And I did it find it suspenseful. The fact Young would do something so dirty and the what is going to happen to Rush was suspenseful to me.

Originally posted by Skydiver View Posti think the fact that young has proof that rush lied will also keep rush under control. after all, with that evidence, young can get rush locked up (if they were on earth, a trick like that would have gotten him fired and likely cost him his security clearance)

Originally posted by RepliVeggie View PostWOW Young is a monster. I am guessing we will see Rush repairing that ship and catching back up with the Destiny in the second half of the season.
