		<description>Terrible Show.

I bought the DVD of the first half of season 1. What a joke. The description should have clued me in:

&quot;...The danger, adventure, and hope they find on Destiny will reveal the heros and villans among them.&quot;

Really? Is this supposed to be Survivor In Space?

I totally agree. The idiotic &#039;Stones&#039; have to go. No one wants to tune into a sci-fi series set three galaxies away and have 80% of the plotlines occur on Earth!

Dumb, dumb, dumb.</description>

		<description>Stephanie,

What can I say.  

What can we do except stop watching this steaming turd pile that Mr. Brad Wright, Joseph Mallozzie and company, in their infinite wisdom decided to serve loyal stargate fans via exceedingly slow drip.

Four episodes in and I turned it off in disgust.

Brad Wright and Joseph Mallozzie have been attempting to defend their turd pile from the wrath of loyal stargate fans .. and guess what they came up with?  

Well loyal Stargate fans, SGU is completely different, more mature etc.. and you need to deal with what we (TPTB) give you or you can just tune out, because we&#039;ve got new fans now. 

SGU is more mature????? woaaaaaa???  For who? Since when is teenie drama bs mature?  Besides, it&#039;s STARGATE , not 90210. We want mature adventure, tough decisions, science .. etc. 

The fact is, that Wright and Mallozzie are liars. They want to expand the demographic and make more money off the backs of the loyal stargate fans.

The first season of SGPU will have good ratings because the Stargate fans are still blind sided by what happenned.

Wright and company are gambling that by the time the drama lovers tune into the show and the stargate fans abandon the show, that the ratings will continue to climb irregardless.

Are they right? Perhaps.
Is it right?  Duh.  

I&#039;m not as smart as the rest of SGU&#039;s target audience. You see I don&#039;t want relationship issues on my TV. I&#039;m too stupid to understand human drama , like Days of Our Lives ... and I don&#039;t like it. It makes me drowsy.

I want my sci-fi to be fun and action packed. I want my heroes to be strong and intelligent and I need them to enforce good values. 

Call me stupid.</description>

		<description>I too had such high hopes for this show. The first
episode seed like many of the previous SG series 
(e.g. action, creative thought and so forth.) Fast forward
half a dozen episodes and I find my self more captivated
with the Weather Channel. 

Where&#039;s the action. Where&#039;s the bad guys, the impending 
doom, THE SCIENCE?

For a series that takes place on a ship millions of 
light years away, we sure do spend an inordinate amount
of time back on Earth (thanks to the conjuring of a handy plot
device known as the &quot;stones&quot;- how cute.)

I for one am bored silly. This show should be called 
&quot;Stargate 90210&quot; or &quot;Stargate OC.&quot;</description>
