▲ 491 ▼ Stargate SG1 was so versatile. Somehow it pulled off episodes as different as ‘Heroes’ and ‘200’, with each feeling perfectly at home in the show. (lemmy.world) submitted 3 years ago by setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world to c/sciencefiction@lemmy.world 95 comments fedilink hide all child comments

But stick with it. It becomes a more serious rendition of the franchise, but it's just as engaging. It not only keeps the overall spirit of the franchise going, it revitalizes it because of the set and setting. Where SG1 and Atlantis have humanity becoming virtually indestructible gods through their new technology, EVERYONE in SGU is vulnerable. It's really unfortunate because the show was canceled right when it was finding it's feet. permalink fedilink source parent
