I think the Earth parts are arguable some of the most 'scifi' parts on the show, I mean they're inhabiting someone's body on the other side of the universe using aliens technology for crying out loud! For all the drama, it's still pretty much all linked to the situation they find themselves in due to scifi elements, or directly through the technology itself. For me, it's more of a true scifi than SG-1 or Atlantis ever were.

Of course it is. They're people in the know about the super secret STARGATE program, refugees from an Earth base on another world, gone to a millions of years old alien space ship. When they get the chance to be on Earth, it's occupying someone else's body via an alien communication device that lets them communicate in real-time across billions of light years.
How much more science fiction can you get?"A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in. Good people do things for other people. That's it, the end." -- Penelope Wilton in Ricky Gervais's After Life

Originally posted by Captain Obvious View PostThe people that are complaining the show is not scifi are looking for "Bubblegum Scifi", neat little plots that resolve themselves every week, cute little pratfalls, one standard " Big bad meanie" to fight all the time. Nothing realistic or dark. Lots of cute quirky technobabble and the day always gets saved with 3 seconds on the clock.
