the story is a little bit thin, and the acting is boring, they shout too much...
hopefully it will get better. i give them a second chance, but i'm already longing sg1 and atlantis.

my wife and i were both quite excited about getting a new stargate fix, but after watching this,
feeling very disappointed at the moment... felt like a bit of a rip-off of bs:g with a stargate
badge just slapped on it (ftl fer christs sake, robert carlisles character being a stand-in for
baltar, the young military guy as apollo etc...)
still, will hold out hope for the new series, see if the next few episodes improve at all

keep a positive mind and you will have a chance to like this, as i did. it was not a "fail", it was
totally ok and i'm looking forward to the next episode!

i just watched it and love this new series, yes its different than sg1 and atlantis but the same
concept would be boring a 3rd time round.
i dont know why people are complaining about spped i got it in under an hour. mayb you people should
look into you bittorrent setup and portforwarding etc.

i for one am very happy that they didn't copy the first two series. would get old really fast. and
don't know if you folks watched the other series from the beginning but the acting wasn't superb
there either.. takes a few episodes for the actors to get used to their roles.
quality is great and thanks to eztv for the show.

how good is this =)
thought it was ace, not as jokey as the other stargates, but no worries there. no alien bad guys as
yet and the hints that there are consequences for actions might actually happen (no more blowing up
solar systems without even a slap on the wrist hopefully). it's less toys for the boys too, there
wasn't a hint of a super weapon or magical character. its a genuine attempt at a plot driven
intelligent bit of tv, which to be honest is rare and welcomed. by me any how. it does seem to
borrow heavily from bsg and lost in space, but without being ultra bogged down with mythos,
technical gubbings and an arm flailing robot =) its far from perfect but compared to anything else
this year (as far as the pilot episode goes anyhow and perhaps with the exception of flashforward)
it warrants some decent attention.
did lou diamond phillips have more than one line it? i cant remember, i'm sure he's meant to be in
it for more than one scene though =)

awesome episode. and the quality isn't bad at all, at least when you watch it on a tube television.
i really liked it, and i actually like rush. no one in the series likes him (and my mother sure as
hell doesn't) but i do, he seems like he's trying to do his best.

and it was exactly as expected...

i expected this series to be shitty, even more shitty than sga. when i read about the plot online i
was sure that the series will be boring as hell.
i was wrong. i was pleasantly surprised by this show, and it's amazing crew.
robert carlyle shows amazing acting.

i was a bit surprised to find out he's in it for the
long haul. he's an established film actor (not a bad one either) and it's p. rare to see one
crossover to tv for anything other that a guest appearance. i was sure when i first heard that he
was in it, it would be for the first episode or two then get killed off, but imdb puts him in every
ep. maybe he's gotten typecast as a violent little brit and can't get any decent movie jobs, so has
decided to do a tv spot to break the typecasting.
