Love it, i was scared that it was going to be another SG-1 clone like Atlantis was, i half expected them to gain an alien team member in the first episodes. I love the tone and style of the show its very firefly/bsg. Im very excited what this show has to offer.

Pleasantly surprised about Eli as well, from the trailers i thought i was gonna hate him but he is the person i can identify with the most, and what was that game he was playing at the start, anyone think that it was Stargate Worlds MMO?

anyone notice that RDA has gained a little face weight? Wasn't as good as the SG-1 or Atlantis pilots. A little too much "drama" between characters and not enough action. Hope the next episode is a bit more exciting. I hope it doesn't turn into a boring soap opera in space with little bits of action and way too much drama scenes.

Meh, the whole thing felt slow and fairly boring to me. hopefully it picks up.

It may be different from SG1, but it's practically a clone of Atlantis though.

The go through gate, get stuck on "ship", can't go back. oh, and every episode there's either going to be an on ship/city crisis, or they're going exploring. the only difference is that they're on a ship traveling, which isn't really changing anything.

I suspect sometime in season 3 or 4, they'll figure out a way to have short gate connections to earth as well. seems like familiar territory.

oh and thank the writers the senator guy went and died, I wouldn't have been able to stand a show with him in it(the actor, and the character he plays wich is identical to every other role he has ever played).

It was good and I'm looking forward to the next episode.

I just hope it wont become a BSG-like Stargate since I felt a tad of BSG in there due to all the drama and I'm not a fan of BSG.

Thank you, that's what i'm talking about.

The pilot moved way too slowly....didn't really like all the switching between the flash backs and the present. That used up most of the pilots time, nothing much happened, they gate to ship, start to moan at each other, life support starts to fail, they find a planet, end.

****ing awesome, I'm hooked already. It's so dark, I love it.

that's how I felt, it has a BSG vibe to it and I love the new chracters, great to see the old crew back!

Eli is awesome :D

I actually preferred the flashbacks to the usual Stargate two-parters. It gave things a more suspensful and more urgent feel, but not rushed.

Overnight ratings are in already for ?Air? Parts 1 and 2, the series premiere of Stargate Universe! While lower than we had hoped, Syfy is touting the preliminary viewership numbers as the biggest premiere for the Stargate franchise in four years (since the debut of Atlantis?s second season).

The two-hour premiere averaged more than 2.35 million viewers, making for a 1.7 average household rating.

1.32 million adults ages 25 to 54 tuned in, and 1.12 million adults 18 to 49. In that second demographic, that?s the best performance for a Friday night series premiere since the debut of Battlestar Galactica in January, 2005, Syfy said.

The show also beat FOX?s Dollhouse at 9 p.m. A new episode of that show drew 2.1 million viewers.

The initial ratings data includes those who watched the show live, or DVR-delayed within 3 hours of broadcast. Complete ?Live + 7 days? data ? accounting for those who recorded the episode on DVR and watched later in the week ? will be available in abGateworld

So I have only watched 13 minutes of the pilot so far at the time of writing.

One thing I never understood, I guess I didn't read up on it too much, is the events of SG1 & Atantis in play? Is this a new timeline, if so why is Jack and others there....etc etc

Also noticed that one ship was called Hammond, assuming after the general, kinda awesome. If it is the same time as SG1 & Atlantis, is it during or after those series?

Thanks.

It takes place in the same timeline as SG-1 and Atlantis, and takes place after Atlantis. Although that will be explored later on I'm sure in the SG-1/Atlantis movies (we hope).

I never saw any of Atlantis so I really hope they don't go into that story, I don't really want to buy the seasons of Atlantis just so I know the back story but if anything comes up LOC is our man :p
