Hey all!

Im a big Stargate fan (even of most of atlantis) and was wondering what everyones expectations are for Stargate Universe since it will be starting (in Australian anyway) in the next few days on payTV.

Hope people find this interesting.

I fear it will be meh.
I'm a fan of SG-1, even more so of Atlantis (well, except for the last few episodes), but when I heard that the "target-audience" will be a younger crowd, I immediately feared a new "hip" cast and whatnot.
We'll see how it plays out, but for now my expectations aren't too high.
By the way, the premise reminds me of Sliders, what with the short time-frame and so on.

Agreed, i have heard its like a Isacc Asimov book (don't know which one),
Seasons 3 and 4 of Atlantis were great but i agree that the last few empies of S5 were not very good.

Universe reminds me of the SG1 episode "200" where they replace the crew with a younger team

That is one of the best episodes ever.

The zombie reality and the "need to beat the replicators and jaffa army in 30 sec" to get to the stargate are awesome.

And thanks for the 1st quote ever of me :D

When I first heard of the premies for Star Gate Univers I emedeatly thought Star Gate Voyager, but after seeing some of the promos it looks like they're going for more of a Battle Star Galactica feel, so I have high hopes.

I shall remain optimistic about this. If the cast and script are solid we might have something here and I also can't wait for the MMO.

I am a massive fan of both SG-1 and Atlantis, so I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully even with the new direction it seems to be taking, it'll keep that essence of Stargate that made me enjoy the other two series so much.

no idea what it's about but it has that guy from 28 weeks later in it and he's awesome.

I'll miss McKay though... best. character. ever.

I'm hoping it'll be good. I'm not sure how I feel about it being serialized, though. My schedule is never fixed and I always forget to catch up on episodes I've missed, which means that I'm always missing chunks of the plot. The upside is that serialized shows are often more engrossing when I actually get around to watching all of them.

It had a very "Stargate Galactica" feel to it and is definitely darker in premise than the other two, I admit. I'm still on the fence with the whole thing but hopefully the characters will grow on me as the show proceeds.

It's darker? So it's not all kiddy-like or anything?
Whew, that's a relief!

I'm looking forward to the new series, especially seeing as though Robert Carlyle is supposed to be an A-Morale scientist which is a type of character that i love to watch, im just dubious as to what they can add now as a race of antagonists, we've had the G'ould, the Wraith, i dont know what they're going to do now
