Many here have blasted SG-U. But having seen all three TV series, I must say I consider SG-U the one with the most dramatic weight.

In SG-1 and Atlantis, too little was on the line. Relative to SG-U, the people who inhabited SG-1 and Atlantis were merely on a romp.

In SG-U on the other hand, everyone faces imminent death. This “we could all die at any moment” premise may have been borrowed from the reimagined Battlestar Galactica. If so, for good reason. It works.

SG-U is not without flaws, but overall its dark tone raises it above the level of its predecessors.

Dr. Rush is an arrogant coward and only a few steps away from becoming a mad scientist.

Eli was funny for the first few episodes, then quickly became annoying with his pop-culture references, and endless amounts of naivety. Also remains content to have Chloe turn him into her B.F.F so he can spend the entire series with perpetual blue-balls.

Chloe has no personal skills that could benefit anyone in any way. She's not a scientist, not a fighter, not even a cook (There is an actual cook on the ship not being a misogynist). Also she's totally fine with dragging Eli around by his penis so they can have fantastic giggly girl time. I can't wait for the episode where she cries into his arms because Lt. Scott didn't notice her new hair style.

Lt. Scott is my personal favorite. Shown to be very “religious” yet has no qualms about thinking with his dick and has already slept with 2 of the 4 female main characters. Both his parents were killed in a car crash (cliche) he was raised by a priest who “drank himself to death” by the time Scott turned 16 (cliche) and he got a teenage girl pregnant (cliche)
His character is unbelievable tragic. There is no person in the history of the world that has lived that pathetic an existence.

Sgt. Greer. This is the quote for this character from the SGU website:
Raised to be a military man, his physical prowess hides a very troubled past that at times escapes his control. On lockup from a court martial when Icarus is attacked, he is released by Col. Young and undoubtedly looks to him for leadership. Destiny, while far away from his home and family, is a place for Greer to start anew and become the man he believes he can be.

Sgt. Greer from the show is a savage. A violent savage. He doesn't respect authority, doesn't respect those who are smarter than him, and is confrontational at every turn. He is the poster-child for how everyone who has a problem with the military views the military.

Col. Telford ran screaming like a little girl back to earth when is was assumed the ship was going to blow up in a sun. Doesn't matter if it was a hoax, Telford didn't know that and it basically showed who he looks out for.

Camile: We're doing lesbians? Seriously? In the first season? Talk about a cheap way to attract an audience. I don't remember Amanda Tapping having to tongue another woman to get people to watch SG-1. God that would have been hot.

Lt. Vanessa James: the second girl to have been sexed by Lt. Scott. Just a boring character. Nice tits though.

This show is garbage. There are no sentient aliens, no decent characters, and gobs and gobs of forced drama. My favorite episode to date is 'Time'
about 10 minutes in. I'm sure those who've seen it know why.

Anyway, for those people that keep saying to give this series a chance I say STFU. Already like ten episodes have aired and the show still stinks. Please shoot me, shoot me now please. I'm so glad Caprica is starting now. I was hooked from the first episode. No need to give it a chance because it already proved itself in the pilot.

Somebody really needs to take SGU outside, shoot it multiple times, throw it in a grave, pour concrete, rocks and sand. And finally blow it up with a nuclear bomb. Yes, it is that bad. Piece of crap. They are ruining the legacy of SG1 and Atlantis.

Military protocol is the same no matter what technology is being used or what the locale is or who the enemy is. I should know, I am an ACTUAL military vet. The entire Stargate entity is technically a military one, with civilian components…but still under ultimate control of the President (in his capacity as Commander in Chief). This show is a complete mess. The characters are all wrong, the ship is too dark and dreary, and the soapy drama and shaky cameras and kino scenes are all lifted from other shows.

This show has failed, it has alienated the majority of its fanbase (which is responsible for its existence in the first place), and since the rest of this season has already been filmed and is “in the can”, the next episodes could kill the franchise for good. The synopses for the next episodes have been released, but as we are all seeing now, the spin on the positive aspects of SGU are deceptions. The actual show itself is almost unwatchable. The vapid, nonsensical “science” is missing from this fiction. If I wanted to watch “As The Stargate Turns”, I could get up earlier…or just go out and buy tissues and chocolate and cuddle with my TV pillow while watching. OMG shoot me now.
