Season 1 – Stargate Universe

I am a fan of the Stargate Series. I’ve watched literally everything from the original movie “Stargate” and to Stargate Command to Stargate Atalantis to the offshoot movies and finally now… Stargate Universe. Here is the plot.

The Previously unknown purpose of the “Ninth Cheveron” is revealed, and ends up taking a team to an Ancient ship “Destiny”, a ship built millions of years ago by the Ancients, used to seed Distant galaxies with Stargates. This team, led by Dr. David Rush and Colonel Everet Young, are trapped on the ship, unable to change its programmed mission, and encounter new races, new technology and new enemies, as the runaway ship takes them to the far ends of the Universe. – JwhitleyMail (IMDB

I like the plot… really I do. It opens a whole new universe of stories. But after watching the pilot episode, it lacks that shit-what’s-gonna-happen sort of anticipation that Stargate always has. Maybe it just takes some adjusting to the new characters. Although I find Chloe really beautiful. Hahahaha… Baliw!!!

G36C… the protagonists still carry around that old G36 automatic rifle. I know the Heckler & Koch G36 looks really good but they’d have like ten years to study the Ancient technology, the Ori technology, the Wraith technology… surely by this time they should have at least some mean and cool looking blaster gun or something. Still I believe this Season is worth watching as long as they have newer plots and not some recycled stories from forgotten movies. Meanwhile you can still get the entire Stargate show from Amazon in DVD.
