No one talks about this show anywhere, but it was such a huge part of my up bringing. It made think deeply about a lot of stuff as a younger person.

Plus it’s cool as heck.

I don’t know if there’s much of a point to this post other than to say thanks to ever made this sub. You rule.

    Ehhh…it’s lack of popularity wasn’t due to serialized storytelling, which had been around especially in SciFi for a while at that point.

    It had it’s high points, but on the whole, it just wasn’t very good. People wanted Stargate and they got a bad BSG knockoff instead.

    I rewatched it during Covid, and while I didn’t hate it the way I did during the initial airing, I still wasn’t sad it didn’t get a second season.

      Yeah… the tone wasn’t right… It had this vibe of “we’re going to make a serious TV show this time.” Vibe to it. However the things you get to see in that show are very cool. I’m just now realizing Lemmy doesn’t have spoiler tags so I’ll leave it at that.

      It got a second season. The second half of it is actually rather good, but the damage was already done at this point unfortunately.

      With SGU they went and made exactly what an episode of SG1 was mocking.

      Take stargate, but replace the cast with angsty teens/young adults.

        Oh yeah! Episode 200, classic. Daniel in the sharing you are referencing is pretty much what Eli ended up being in that show.
