Re: OT: The irony of SG1
Yeah like the ancients couldn't defeat the Wraith, so by the end of season 2 humans have devised a method to turn the wraith back into humans  |

Re: OT: The irony of SG1
The show is ok. I would like it better if they hadn't fall into the uber tech we are so smart trap.

Re: OT: The irony of SG1
Stargate seems to have fallen into the trek category. It isn't bad, but it's part of that generation of scifi.

Re: OT: The irony of SG1
I'd have to disagree with the "not bad" thing. The constant deus ex machina and ever-escalating scale of ultimate bad guys drove the show into the ground. And it started off so well in the early seasons... sigh. Bloody Sci Fi Channel.

Re: OT: The irony of SG1
Luckily there is a good chance that the Stargate Movie will get its two real intended sequels, with Kurt Russell and James Spader... but that is, of course, last year's news.

Re: OT: The irony of SG1
When I said it's not a bad thing, it's just a thing of that age of scifi. Many scifi shows from that period were the same, much like scifi from the 40's and 50's and 60's were all very much the same and it took Star Trek and Star Wars to really shake up the genre.
Just like Babylon 5, Firefly, DS9, and the new BSG really shook up scifi today.
But bonnie hammer at scifi can be blamed for turning a lot of scifi into crap. Last press kit from BSG indicated that RDM and Eick were told to make BSG "more episodic". That's a nice way of saying..
"We feel the audience is stupid so make the show stupider so ratings go up."
