I also remember a time long ago when MTV used to be all about music and show music videos instead of crappy reality shows.

Indeed, SGU wasnt the level of SG1, but it was steadily improving. And now we got nothing anymore :(

to be fair to 'syfy' (urgh), the ratings, writing and most of the acting has been pretty awful. I would have stopped watching long ago if it weren't for robert carlyle being pretty awesome

just like every other corporate entity (syfy, ccp, my employer, anywhere i look) focus is always on immediate short term gains.
any trace of customer loyalty/satisfaction, long term strategy and investment and anything else that requires a responsible though-out plan is dumped.
i refuse to watch the channel, i'll be damned if i'm going to sit through their ads and those of their sponsors. the channel is being driven into the ground and i won't support it. dvds? lol, yeah right.
i'll download everything on torrent and to hell with them.
as a customer, why would I keep shopping somewhere when every time i walk into the store they yank the carpet out from under my legs and say "sorry, cleaning, you understand" ??
what is the quote? "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results"
Someone wants to run a business model that doesn't spit in my face? I'll watch your channel and at christmas i'll buy your dvd sets. otherwise, internet AWAY!!!!!!

Universe sucked hard though, fat kid annoyed me to no end.
Atlantis on the other hand had a good cast, once they killed off the scottish guy.

Saw that one coming to be honest but sucks donkey balls anyways. The show was just gaining momentum and than this. I tell you now it'll end in an epic cliffhanger that never gets resolved since a couple of weeks ago the writers announced that they had a 5-year story laid out for SGU. Well so much about that.
But the syfy morons killed the show even before it started. Moving of timeslot. First mistake. Making a show so much different in style than stargate so far, definitely made for another audience and advertising it beforehand as it would still be the stargate we all know. Second Mistake (doesn't attrackt new viewers who didn't like SG before and old "fans" won't like it).
And third, the biggest mistake was the financing of the show. They said it had a budget of over 2 million bucks / episode. Sure just about 1 million viewers isn't nearly as much as it would take to make it a success on the CEO's wallet. So I ask here: Why the hell didn't they did, what they had done before with BSG? Let some other guys pay for it as well? BSG wasn't only paid for by SyFy but also by Sky1 in the UK. Maybe some other channels that broadcast it too and hey 1 million viewers is all you need.
Yeah sure and they don't care if people DVR it or buy it on iTunes because of the advertising crap. Anyhow. SyFy is on the best way of become worse than FOX.
I just hope they really nail it with BSG: Blood & Chrome and don't do the same crap all over again.
Sad side effect of this is, after 14 years of constantly running on TV they probably just killed the Franchise with that move(s). Don't think that there will be another SG themed TV show in the forseeable future. See what they did with star trek after enterprise got canceled (prematurely too in my opinion).
RIP Stargate :/

I remember when SciFi used to be about SciFi. Old Dr. Who, Twilight Zone, coverage of various SciFi conventions, interviews with writers and producers and other celebrities. There was some truly innovative programming and a lot of just weird but cool stuff late at night.
It's really a shame that they decided to start catering to the lowest common denominator, and in the past few years it has become a really, really worthless channel. And the name change to "Syfy"? Seriously?
Yet another victim of trying to be everything to all people and in the end being nothing at all.

FUUUUU-
I love SGU, the only SG that actually feels like it has a real storyline to it. Not that I didn't love the other ones, but not quite like this one.

I remember when TLC use to be The Learning Channel. Which had spawned off of the Discovery Channel.
Now its just a channel for bored housewives at home all day watching crap like Hoarders and reruns of John and Kate + Eight.

Wait, what, a storyline? They were going to have one thing of consequence happen each season?

SGu sucked anyway. The only thing they did was running around on that darn sapceship, and it was dark, and someone locked somebody else in aroom. And the got mad, and the power broke, and the fixed it. And they saw ghosts, and some aliens, and the lights went out and they never left the spaceship.
And not enough MacGuyver.

HAHA this. All I remember is the first couple episodes everyone crying for a few hours every episode. And why did they all hate Robert Carlye's character? The rest of them were all like grrr!! I'm angry and boo hoo cry.

SGU was kinda dissappointing in the first season. However, i drudged through and it steadily improved - Season 2 got off to a good start and has gotten very good in the last few episodes. I will have to kill the writers for
( spoiler alert )
killing off Ginn and forcing that stupid Young/Rush conflict way past it's expiration date. It finally ended, the show was gaining massive momentum after the seed ship episode, but now it's gone.....
Yeah, whoever's running SyFy are a bunch of idiots. They just condemned the channel to have to survive purely on year-to-year budgets with nothing to fall back on - Which means they'll probably go the MTV route and not actually make any sci-fi anymore, only showing soaps.
And for the record, Rush and Wallace rocked. If Ginn was still there they'd have had a pretty good trio to build the rest of the show around.

The entire series is bad, and the sooner it's forgotten about the better the hope is for a good sci-fi show in the future.

They could show re-runs of star trek*, Babylon 5, SG*, DR Who from the black and white onward, B Sci-Fi films. Heck, I'm sure they could do readings of all those dime store 1950s sci-fi paper backs and get better ratings than some of the current garbage.
How about ghost hunters ... all those ghosts are the now absent customers.
