Atlantis was crap. For four years they essentially just sat around and delt with the villian of the week. It never progressed, never lead to an ultimate defeat or anything along those line, not to mention the writers started to recycle material from the last show.
SG-1: for the most part it was a good show. The show for me was the modern military thrust into an "extreme" situation. They werent on a "heros" mission to rid the galaxy of the villian, hell their primary goal was just to defend themselves. It started to get shakey when earth started to get its own space vessels (I think it was a mistake) even if most of the tech was ripped off (it was kinda pushing it with the whole higher plane of existance thing but I looked the other way for that). I could have done without the Ori arc completely.
Im not sure about SG:U to be honest. From what ive read on gateworld most of the cast is going to be in their mid twenties which tells me they are targeting a younger demograph, that and the whole cut off from earth on a ship feels like a blatant rip off of ST: Voyager.

Even so in the movie when Daniel is reading the story on the other planet it stated that the gates were a means of transporting slaves quickly between planets linking to why there were even humans on the planet in the first place. Its just that the humans on Earth rebelled and buried the stargate stopping any military advance.
Of course the ship could still get there but it wasn't an instantaneous jump like stargates were, and frankly I don't RA even bothered trying.
Ra: I didnt want that planet anyway...
Seriously though in the context of the lore Ra likely would have sooner said he wiped out earth then even hint at the idea that the humans there rebelled. If he was the top dog he would have appeared weak for having let a rebellion get as far as it did if word ever got out. |

Sorry but Stargate had pale humor compared to Firefly.
I agree, had the show not been canceled it could have really had given SG1 a run for its money if they were in the same time slot. To be honest I would have picked Firefly over SG1.

because of who lead the SG-1 team, i just once in all of the seasons he was a regular want to see them somehow whip something up from spare parts.
though there was that episde where someone else did MacGuyver a stargate in a basement with a toaster.
There is a blooper where Amanda Tapping makes a joke about that. It was during the episode where they found the second star gate. "Seriously, just take some of this ice and build us a boat, or something. Help! Im stuck on an iceberg with MacGyver!" |
