Samoa Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 I like Farscape and Stargate. I find Farscape to be a better show, with better acting, better storyline, and just better. Stargate is great too. I can see why it was chosen over Farscape. Stargate has a much more flexible storyline, in that it can be run for several more seasons at least. before it gets stupid....but never will have the quality of Farscape. I have been watching Stargate it is a good series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 (edited) Well the good news is that the next season or spin-off of stargate will be Stargate Atlantis :), which is completely different, and it will infact involve the builders somewhat :woot: The unfortunate part is that I haven't seen the latest season due to my cable provider :( Are there only five or six episodes about the asgard(the sun with the unstable element, the underground lab where they study their own species, the o'neil ship one, the treaty established with the system lords, and the first one)? And why can't they continue the epic of Tolana :cry: Believe it or not, I've only seen up to season 5! Only Five! Damn Cable :( Edited July 23, 2003 by Evolution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahem... :devil: I only watched half of an episode of Farscape a long time ago, so I have a bit of bias. I would have to say Stargate, anyway, 'cuz it has Michael Shanks. :drool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samoa Posted July 23, 2003 Author Share Posted July 23, 2003 Stargate SG-1, for sure. Best show with the coolest prop. Yeah, the stargate is a cool prop...Farscape has that cool ship, and they deal with worm hole theory in a more traditional way. Comparing the storylines though, I have to say with out a doubt Farscape rulez hands down. John Critin's search to get home with a band of outcast individuals with similiar intent makes the whole thing better. Every episode, save one or two, are fantastic. Where as, as I've noticed, that Stargate has some great episodes, and a good number of not so good. The storyline isn't as developed as Farscape, which serves to leave it open to more options, where Farscape is much like Voyager in a sense that there is that one goal. So it is more limited. Hey both are great. Yep, Farscape will be back and Stargate season 8 is coming....great stuff....IMO. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOC Veteran Posted July 23, 2003 Veteran Share Posted July 23, 2003 Just so you peeps know, it's been confirmed that there will be an 8th season of Stargate SG-1 ALONG with the spin-off show Atlantis. P.S. Both shows are terrific, but The Dead Zone pwnz them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both shows are terrific, but The Dead Zone pwnz them all. Hell no. That show really drags. I like some of the episodes but it turns me off to see the same lame story line in every episode. Oh yeah, perhaps you could read some too. I already mentioned Stargate will have it's 8th season. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 farscape started off good and then they added f**ked up characters that acted werid and rubbish stories that were boring and envolved small aliens always attackin the crew. it lost its touch, and not forgetting the endless Scorpius-inside-johnshead-secretsofthe-wormholetechnology!!! episodes...why didnt they just shoot him, they were boring. they should've done more mindless space battle episodes or atleast some decent stories..its always the crew ****ing each other off and doing werid stuff. SG1 ownz deadzone and farscape, because of it unique stories and characters, sense of adventure, realism and humor along with great acting and awsome sfx. AAAAAAAAAAnubis. hmm sorry. i vote sg1...oh wait i already did oh and that stargate infinity crap should be burned, with its same-old-animation-bs (aint watched it, but you can tell not even kids would watch it unless they r obbessed with treasure planet or something close to it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really didn't care for the wierd tower episode. But no way Stargate beats Farscape. Stargate plots do not measure up to Farscape plots. Farscape attempts to provide more realism about the Sci-fi scene than Stargate does. Each have our own opins though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+primortal Subscriber² Posted July 23, 2003 Subscriber² Share Posted July 23, 2003 Farscape to me was just one huge episode that spanned 4 years. IMHO it was one of the best written shows, you weren't sure where things were going to end up. In SG-1 you knew it was all going to be ok in the last 5-10 minutes of the show. Harvey aka Scorpius inside Jonh's head was basically a memory virus trying to steal information to give make to Scorpius. They just couldn't kill him cause he was helpful (somewhat) with the Peacekeepers and the Scarrans. If the did more mindless space battle episodes, it would get tiresome real quick. I voted for Farscape (not just cause I run a fan site dedicated to it :) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
