Stargate Atlantis S5

[shajiby]

omg only 2 episodes left! :(

[Harsesis]

Has anyone watched the last 2 episodes? cant say i liked 19 at all!

[deadite66]

watched ep19 on fast forward, just money saving for ep20.

[Harsesis]

Meh I'm glad its over, wasn't an amazing series... SG1 was the best, early seasons were awesome. Hopefully they can bring back that spark in the new franchise.

19 felt so horrible; it looked like a mix of csi and las vegas and then put together by pbs. Ep 20 wasn't bad, and was a pretty descent conclusion. when they killed ronan i was like WTF? really cheap kill off tactics. to only be even more disappointed by even cheaper regeneration tactics

It was horrible!

why didn't they jus send a nuke through the gate into the other ship once they figured out that the gate was connected to the super hive

I thought exactly the same thing... also why did they move the Ancient chair from the highly secure Antarctic base to an outbuilding in Area-51. It can't even have been underground if a Dart crash destroyed it.

A very poor end to a rather mediocre series. What a shame.

Episode 19 was without a doubt the worst episode in the entire series. And yes there were definitely many plot holes in 20, but I thought it was alright, probably due to contrasting it to episode 19 ;)

[non.sequitur2]

SG Atlantis is a good show, but nothing, and I mean NOTHING beats The Shield. No way.

[Rob2687]

If they activated the cloak wouldn't there still be a giant crater in the water?

[Evolution]

If that were true, no cloak would be effective anywhere, since there are basic particle densities in space.

[iZoom]

That was the weakest end, well maybe not THE weakest, to Stargate Atlantis that I could have hoped for.

From about midway through Season 5, things picked up and then they end with these two episodes. I will say that I bet they had

fun with the filming and it was a good finale shot :)

Here's to the continuation of the dream :D

Atlantis landing in San Francisco bay was awesome, as well as the Wormhole Drive (although that 2nd one is such a plot device)

[Sigurd]

I actually really liked 19 it was very different. The final episode was kind of rushed too I feel like it should of been a double episode instead to explain a few more things.

[ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm]

much better than the stupid ending sg-1 had, for me that show ended on episode 19.

:yes: Yeah I was quite disappointed with the series finale.

[Evolution]

Perhaps they're hoping to make Atlantis movies ;) However the ending should have been better :/

I think they mentioned that the first time they used it.

[MrKuro]

I loved episode 19, with the csi alternate reality theme (although the csi filming effects got annoying sometimes) .. I really loved that they used snippets of songs in the episode; "The Beautiful People" - Marilyn Manson ; "Sympathy for the Devil" - The Rolling Stones

"Solitary Man" - Johnny Cash.

That was a great episode.

Now the finale.. It wasnt bad, but wasnt great.. It seemed very rushed and should have been a 2 episode deal. And just like SG1, I didn't like that in the finale there was a huge tech boost (asgard tech in sg1), and ZPM's for everyone in Atlantis (and the wormhole drive.. come on!) .. Also I agree, why the hell was earth so unproteched? (where are the ally ships and asgard tech they acquired?, and moving the platform from the ultra-secure antarctic to a shed in area 51 was just stupid, but whatever)

But in the end it worked well enough, and I am looking forward to an atlantis movie eventually. (I am very sad to see it go, hope the next stargate series can fill the void in the future)

Now that's a season finale. I thought it was a perfect way to end off Stargate Atlantis. It should open up things quite nicely with the next Stargate series.

[iZoom]

It was a cop-out for a few reasons as other posters have already stated. While it "wrapped" up the series, it wasn't a fitting finale episode.

"All good things..." from ST:TNG <---- now THAT is a series finale :D

I thought "Unending" was a good series finale for SG1.

Not so sure about this one. I always figured Atlantis would end with Atlantis on earth, taking over for the SGC, though. Among other things, it fits in so nicely with the "1969" episode from SG1 season 2 (Why the SGC was seemingly abandoned.)

[NTUsEr Veteran]

eh, i didn't like either of them. 'Vegas' was just bad, it seemed all the actors were just phoning it in, and Joe Flanigan was just the worst. Though 'Enemy at the Gate' was better, it seemed rushed and not well throught out worm-hole drive..wtf... Would have liked to seem more with the asgard, oh well, hope the Atlantis movies are better, and Universe is aswell

[episode]

I've only read the spoilers, but why is a worm hole drive so far fetched? Atlantis was moved from earth to Pegasus before, so they had to have something to do it then too.

[Evolution]

Before they used hyper space.... the gate drive is instantaneous travel from pegasus to earth... funny how the Ancients were working on it and didn't get it working, but SG:A did it in hours.
