I mean this is really obvious, but I think in the end...it's only the revenue that matters. If a show isn't bringing in the ratings/money,

then no sense in keeping it around. Despite a strong fan background, sometimes that just is the way things end up going.

lame, but it needed to happen. seriously look how they have developed people over the 4 seasons and how little they have actually accomplished. maybe they should stop writing horrible filler episodes and build some character depth from the start.

but i am saddened to see it go, because it had such promise.

Last nights episode was a great one. David really showed his acting talent in that one, he was quite convincing in some of those scenes I'll admit it. And as always it's great to have his sister on (his real life sister also in case you guys didn't know :))

I'm just disgusted that Atlantis was cancelled still. And you know what, it isn't ALL Sci-Fi's fault this time around - it's also MGM's fault.

It was an okay episode...

Just realized John has a Johnny Cash poster in his room. :D

they show it alot of episodes. It's a subtle touch they've done since the first or 2nd season that I really like cause it shows Sheppard is a normal cool person. I think their was an episode were he told somebody how much he loved Johnny Cash and I can't remember if the poster was their before or after, but either way it's a nice tough.

Great episode. Yes, David's acting was the best. You really felt for the guy even though he's an arrogant sod most of the time. I love the fact that his real sister plays his pretend sister, there was real empathy between them. Although some of the scenes must have been difficult to shoot without laughing.

I though we were getting a new woman character, some sort of soldier. Hopefully she replaces Teyla, man she's a crap part of SA. We need more Caldwell and Daedalus.

Yeah she was shown for like 2 second's shooting down a wraith dart in one episode but thats about it

So far the season seems like a dud, there's no story arc to it..

just seems like episodes are wrapped around characters each week but no real focus on anything new ..

No, anything ratings/cancellation related to Stargate and Battlestar is ALWAYS Sci-Fi's fault. They should have never split the shows up. If they hadn't, we'd still have all three of them, no doubt.

last nights wasnt bad

you think being the final season tho..theyd have some storyline

but its just back to random directionless episodes

but i guess..whats left..nothing really

I started losing interest when Dr Weir and carson were cut originally..and now weve got Wolesley and i keep expecting him to so say "please state the nature of the medical emergecy" every time he appears

i think they had great momentum..but they couldnt live up the original..and i think the original where azgard gave em all that technology..and they beat ascended beings and all that..ruined atlantis..rather than atlantis ruining atlantis

The last episode was quite creepy. The whole horror movie theme went well. I must admit though, the creatures in the mist really got to me.

i hope u were being sarcastic .. that ep was yet another boring filler ep (crap)... why cant the writers move on the story!! its like they've given up!

so dissapointed in the series right now

The last episode would have been good if the led somewhere, well most of the episodes lately. Everything seems to be a dead end. They could play the episodes completely out of order and no one would notice. Hopefully the tail end of the season will be more connected.

Ruki, tossing some boobs into the mix wouldn't hurt. Btw I like your sig, I dunno why though :)

that wasn't scary at all the latest episode. They need to get back to more exploring atlantis and battles with the wraith, and the michael story line is stretching pretty thin now, yawn. Though it's too late now. Hope the remaining few episodes do the series justice.

      Anybody that thinks flying cars were possible are idiots. Everyone would basically need a pilot licence, can you imagine how insane and dangerous that would be, people can barely handle driving on land safely right now.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By zikalify · Posted

      Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
