No one talks about this show anywhere, but it was such a huge part of my up bringing. It made think deeply about a lot of stuff as a younger person.

Plus it's cool as heck.

I don't know if there's much of a point to this post other than to say thanks to ever made this sub. You rule.

SGU was unpopular when it came out but with its serialized story telling it was just ahead of its time.

Ehhh...it's lack of popularity wasn't due to serialized storytelling, which had been around especially in SciFi for a while at that point.

It had it's high points, but on the whole, it just wasn't very good. People wanted Stargate and they got a bad BSG knockoff instead.

I rewatched it during Covid, and while I didn't hate it the way I did during the initial airing, I still wasn't sad it didn't get a second season.

With SGU they went and made exactly what an episode of SG1 was mocking.

Take stargate, but replace the cast with angsty teens/young adults.

Oh yeah! Episode 200, classic. Daniel in the sharing you are referencing is pretty much what Eli ended up being in that show.
