[Cancelled] Stargate Universe (Season 2)


Recommended Posts

I loved all the other Stargate series and I actually like SGU even more. It's full of mystery, and treachery. Also, I think for the most part the characters have a lot of depth.

Whether you like the show or not, if the ratings don't pick up it's not going to get renewed. Much as I enjoy it; I'm starting to get a little annoyed at the show at this point, the story arcs are taking too long to mature and they're not doing well with the filler that's meant to go in between.

Show is crap and its a crap from begining... I dont get how people that liked Atlantis or SG1 would like this, because its totaly different type of the show... this is more or less sci-fi DRAMA and not sci-fi action series.... also show is called STARGATE, but they didnt actually used stargate for like 5 or 6 episodes (im not sure if they even showed them in this time since im fastforwarding most of the shows or taking a nap in between). They might as well call this crappy show as "being stuck in the metal prison and having all sorts of personal issues to deal with" and NOT Stargate.

You're fastforwarding through the show and complaining that it's crap? Try watching it all the way through and experience it as it was designed to be experienced.

+1, SGU is amazing. I hope SyFy picks it up for a 3rd season, especially with MGM bankrupt.

I haven't seen episode 5 yet but I really hope this show doesn't get cancelled. The success of this show would mean more shows or movies based on the Stargate universe (no, not the current show).

I never liked SGU from the start. While I admit it has gotten slightly better, it's really not "Stargateish".

Slapping a Stargate in the background doesn't make it a Stargate show.

Cut the drama, get more onto the tech, space and the like, then i'll enjoy it more.

My god what a crappy episode, hell even the clipshows of old stargate were more entertaining than this.

I am getting sick of tired of this show being "Stargate 90210", I thought they had moved on from that towards the end of last season, apparently not. When they are actually out exploring the universe and destiny, this show is very good. When they are farting about on Earth or some guys "fake" earth with soap opera like scenes, I almost feel like giving up entirely.

I think this show (Along with TSCC's second season) is a prime example of how American TV seasons being so long end up badly affecting a show's quality. You get pointless, dull, badly written filler episodes like this that end up causing ratings to go down so when the good episodes air, no one is watching anymore.

Is that higher or lower than SGA was when it was canceled?

Caprica's ratings weren't far off SGU's...

Caprica

- 0.718 million viewers

- 0.5/1 HH

- 0.3/1 A18-49

Edit: "The final episode, "Enemy at the Gate" got a Nielsen Rating of 1.5, which was also the highest rating in season 5.[31] "Enemy at the Gate" was viewed by 2.02 million people in the US, including 973,000 in the 18 to 49 demographic, and 1.12 million age 25 to 54"

Yeah and see what happened to Caprica not an hour or so ago...I think it may just scrape a 3rd season but the story has to progress...luckily next weeks looks good.

From an article about Caprica

http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/show-patrol/2010/10/syfy-cancels-caprica-final-5-episodes-to-air-in-2011.html

"As for "Stargate Universe," which also has seen a dip in ratings since Syfy moved it to 8 p.m. Tuesdays before "Caprica," the rep said "I don't think they're ready yet" to make a decision on whether it will be back for a third season."

Which I suppose is the usual stonewalling a network gives right up until they are ready to say anything. If it does get cancelled I don't see them doing so before the back half of season 2 airs, assuming they take a break between halves again.

Out of all the female cast members, I find her attractive in the way you'd like to bring her home to the parents ...anyone else?
