please people (hi first....), i dont know, its just me, or this show is "not working".
the first episode, mmmm ok, like it.
but 3 episodes later, and still, 45 minutes of talking......................
i watch sg since the movie, i guess like many of the fans here, and.... where's the action, cmon,
you have an ancient ship that travels faster than light (yes, its like crap, and need a lot of work
and fuel....) and they talk and complain all the day (ok, they are close to death by getting nowhere
with no air, food, fuel, water....).
i agree, poeta_inf! sg-1 was great, sga was quite good but rode on sg-1's magic. sgu might be where
the magic gets lost unless something is done about it. the spaceship is huge! much has yet to be
explored to have some inkling of its potentials. it's like atlantis traveling endlessly in space. i
don't think the people that got there are enough to man the craft. i see potentials for good and
exciting stories here but when will it come? i still haven't seen this episode, but i'm hoping it'll
be better than the last one.

i'm actually liking this show. it's not the standard "creature of the week" that most sci-fi shows
fall back on. it's actually trying to "tell a story" (or arc) rather than the usual episodic format
of the other shows. if it was the other 2 shows you knew that rodney or carter would 'save the day'
and be to rebuild the entire space craft in 2 episodes, then you'd have "stargate: voyager" rather
than "stargate: galactica" lol
as for the size of the ship, most of it's cut off due to damage, and it's fully automated (it
survived this long with no one aboard). so, i think, the first half of this season will be the crew
just trying to survive (food, water, power & equipment) then once that happens then they have the
rest of the season to fix bits of the ship and explore it (like what the hell is in the ancient
cargo boxes!!) lol as well as the odd off-world adventure.
also we'll find out what the very end of episode 3 means (the detaching [rescue??] craft)...
boring, predictive and extremely chatty, but then again i guess that is what happens when you change
the station name from sci-fi to sy-fy, it sounds similar but definately is not.
and the "scary" ending of episode 4 - oh no, are they going to crash into the sun... please, the
ship is just going to refuel.
and yes the show is different from the good old sg's and so far this is not a good thing.
oh no, are they going to crash into the sun... please, the
ship is just going to refuel.
in space, it would be dumb not to use solar power as an emergency energy source ... i bet that the
whole ship will turn out to be covered with photovoltaic cells that save the day once more.
