The ending for Stargate Universe was just that… an ending. However, “Gauntlet” doesn’t necessarily have to be seen as just a ‘ending,’ just an ending ‘right now’ for the Stargate franchise in general.
Earlier, I wrote my thoughts on how I felt that with a bit of tweaking and editing in the story, “Epilogue” would have served as a better conclusion to the series than what was proposed to have been a cliffhanger ending with tonight’s “Gauntlet.” Let me shamelessly take those words back, eat them, and ask for seconds, because “Gauntlet” served as a perfect series finale for a show that was cut right when it started to find its walking legs.
From the title of the episode down to the interactions between the characters tonight, Stargate Universe “Gauntlet” gave the sense that Joseph Mallozzi, Brad Wright, and crew knew that the end was coming and if they didn’t then they surely fooled the hell out of me. As stated before, reports of tonight’s episode gave fans the inclination of being a season ending cliffhanger with everyone’s lives in the balance. I came into the episode expecting another space battle with the Drones with maybe a couple of people’s lives being in danger to wrap up the series, leaving several plots dangling with nothing being solved, which in turn would frustrate viewers for years to come. Instead, I witnessed proper farewells, few loose ends, and most importantly, some sense of closure.
On top of all that, I seriously couldn’t ignore the irony within the episode given the circumstances of the overall picture of the Stargate franchise in general. Let me explain. The crew was met with opposition from the Drones, which had pretty much planted themselves at every viable gate on the path ready to attack when the chance came. In our world, Stargate Universe was met with tons of opposition from fans and critics alike and was attacked from all cylinders when the opportunity raised itself. The crew of the Destiny came up with a solution to bypass the attacks, they should go into stasis for about three years. The Stargate franchise has been put on hold indefinitely until someone finds the right time to return it to our television and movie screens. Do you see a pattern here? Plus, you can’t help but notice how the series regulars were the last to go into the stasis chamber, so they could have their final moments together. The scene fit perfectly with the finality of it all and Col. Everett Young’s speech to his crew/family sealed the deal that this was a final goodbye.
The final hour didn’t disappoint in terms of closure and wrapping up things in a loose, but nicely dressed bow. The Lucian Alliance thing never got a feasible conclusion, but I seriously never understood how the crew of the Destiny could have helped in that fiasco after dumping most of the Alliance members on a planet and not being on Earth to help in the invasion itself. Sure, communication stones could have been a conduit to assist in stopping the invasion, but I digress. We had closure for lot of characters, for instance Camile having time to tell Sharon to move on, Matt being able to see his son one last time, and Dr. Lisa Park being able to see one last time before going into a deep sleep. All of those moments, and more, served as a satisfying conclusion to characters we’ve come to know in the last two years and Stargate Universe in general.
But the most satisfying character conclusion for me had to have been that of Eli Wallace, because it made sense for us to end with
him since he was basically the audience’s ‘avatar’ into this adventure. He was the heart of the show and it was a nice touch to end with him gazing at the stars of what could possibly be ahead of him. Plus, a little voice inside my head is still telling me that Eli found a way (or will find a way) to fix the his stasis pod and is sleeping right along with his newfound family, because as he stated in the episode, he is smarter than Dr. Rush and more reliable when the going gets tough. At least he won’t try to jettison who he thinks is the least valuable to the overall mission.
There is so much to go on with this finale, but I will save some of it for the upcoming Two Guys Discuss Stargate Universe with our editor Jon Lachonis so I will wrap this piece up with a last few thoughts. First, the shutting down of the Destiny was like the closing of the Stargate franchise in general. Very nicely done. Secondly, if SGU was renewed for a third season and this was the season finale, I don’t think it would’ve held such an emotional punch, unless we knew some characters wouldn’t wake from that slumber. This is why I feel as if the writers went back to the drawing board once the cancellation was announced and wrote a proper ending. Albeit, I could be wrong, but at least, again, we got closure. Finally, the “Gauntlet” might have come down on the Stargate franchise, but after watching this episode, I don’t think of it as being ‘completely’ dead right now.
It’s just in stasis at the moment.
See you on the other side, folks! Hopefully…

Disappointed in the ending. Left more questions than answers. The series was just getting good and hitting its stride. I looked forward to watching each week. Hopefully there is more to come some way. Someone will realize this and bring the series out of stasis.
Well, I have to say that I thought the series finale was OK. I am with the author in believing that Eli found the fix for the stasis pod and things will be OK.
But that still doesn't help my son get over it. He really feels for the characters on the show and was feeling pretty down after the shows end tonight and he is 9.
Lots of things were tied up, but overall, they could bring back SG:U with little work in the script. Here's to hoping!
Oh, your son was 9 when watching this? You’re an idiot. >:-)
The last 10 episodes were the best in the entire series, for syfy to pull the plug before they were even aired was such a travesty.
MGM should just bypass the networks and cable channels altogether and sell episodes for $0.99 a pop on itunes, amazon and anywhere else that's remotely suitable. At that price I'll bet the sales would be better than the ratings. TV Execs are just too stupid to deserve any control over these things.
It wouldnt be the first time Remember Farscape! Just when it was getting good They decided to end it with the ridiclous ending and then redid the ending with peacekeeper wars.. That series could have run for at least five more years and they just unplugged –Just Dumb!!!
I loved this series from the beginning, and to see it blooming like a flower and cut off from its roots is just sad. I really hope they bring this back. Come on, there's gotta be an Eli in our world that can come up with something good to continue this series. This just blows. I look forward each week to this show, I mean nothing has come close to the heart than SGU.
For goodness sakes … it's a TV show folks. It's not real people facing the Drones it's actors doing their job. If there is sadness it's that so many good people are now out of work. Which should remind you of a real-life situation that DOES need your attention. Nobody ever dies in science fiction, dead shows get resurrected and after all this WAS a spin-off. Had you rather it go on and on until it no longer had life and displeased everybody like so many other worn out shows have done? Oh please, stop your whining and go find another something to lavish your fanboi adoration onto.
There really is no reason to act like a brat just because fans of the show have lost something that they greatly enjoy watching week after week. I'm sure that there's something in your life that you would not want taken away from you. If you like to play golf, and you were told that you were no longer allowed to do so, well.. that's just tough: find another something to lavish your fanboi adoration onto.
You're obviously not a science fiction fan. If something you immensely enjoyed was just ripped away from you, you'd feel the same way. Also, coming onto a forum just to spew an attitude toward people trying to fight for something they want is pretty pathetic. So in your own words, stop your whining. Go find something positive to do, because if coming on here and whining about us is all you really have to do, I feel sorry for your pathetic excuse for an existence.
Doug, you're dumb… we'd rather the story be completed as planned, with a 5 year story arc. i agree with alot of people who hated the first few episodes… it started very slow, but the show really got great and its a shame that syfy would rather have more wrestling programing than actual science fiction…
I do believe we watch shows because for some of us, it is an outlet in a world like ours that has nothing like it to offer. I loved the show from the beginning and would imagine what would happen next only to be surprised when it did something unexpected.
Sure people should move on, but when we finally find a show that's worthy of our time, just to have to stripped away, then the search begins again and that just sucks. I disliked the lesbo scenes but the WHOLE story and plot were 1000 times better than SG1, Atlantis, and the original stargate movie.
It takes a great show to make me feel like I was part of the movie (like an actual crew member). I cried in parts and was also very attached to some characters (Eli, I need to learn from you). I put myself in their situation and I became protective of the crew. No other show has ever done that for me. I TRULY miss this show and wholeheartedly wish for more seasons. Friends lasted forever before they pulled the plug and it was a so-so show.
AAARRRGGGHHH! Who do I need to plead with to get this show back up and running or at least produce one heck of a movie off of this.
I think this was the better of the Stargate series, i really enjoyed all of it, its a shame we dont get to see more seasons of this great series.
the cliffhanger … I really want to know what happens to Eli, you cant just leave things there… aleast tell them to realease the rest of the plot as a book or a magazine!
I agree with George, put it on iTunes and charge, I would bet that enough people would pay enough money to make this show financially viable. The beginning of the end of quality sci-fi shows was when SciFi Friday was moved. Very sad to see SGU come to a end – even sadder that the WWE took its timeslot.
LAME<LAME<LAME!!!!!!!!!
ALL I CAN SAY IS….I HOPE IT COMES BACK….SO MUCH THEY CAN DO WITH IT
Jeez, if I didn't know they were cancelling it that episode would have seemed like a season finale and that I had lots more to look forward to.
This show just kept getting better and better and I thought it was great from the start. Although I kind of agree with Mike about the Lucian Alliance story arc. I'd much rather see stories of Destiny making its journey with this ragtag crew than having Earthly affairs keep cropping up.
What a shock and disappointment to find out it was cancelled though. I so hope they bring it back somehow. I like the idea of charging for new episodes. Heck, I pay nearly $100 a month for cable where we only watch a few shows a week.
I'd definitely give that up if I could simply buy episodes of shows I like and watch them online.
wow you're very brave, I'd never pay nearly 100 a month when I usually only watch 2-4 shows a week at any given time, lol. Sometimes nothing at all once shows are done for the seasons. Anyways, that iTunes things sounds cool, except that I hate iTunes, another service about the same price or a seasonal rental rights would be convenient and allow people to prove they like it. When series come out on dvd though it's better, no drm and no space on the computer taken up by tons of tv…. plus if you missed it on tv you can make a marathon out of it
Oh and I am thankful, that for once, one of the few series I get into , even though it is cancelled, gave a REAL ending, with some closure and sensibility behind it.
Plain and simple, I literally worked my schedule around the airing of each new episode and I've seen every on eat least 3 times. They can't end this show. Why not cancel one of the others like atlantis or sg-1 I never even found either of those remotely interesting which is why I was hesitant on watching sgu but as I said, I'm literally obsessed with the show and they need to keep it going… Hopefully they can reach some sort of agreement and bring it back.
dude… SG-1 ended a long time ago, maybe they play re-runs… Atlantis was canceled for SGU…
Sooo sad it's over,the finale was so bittersweet! My favorite show.Loved it from the beginning.Such rich character development, honestly very sad this "family" is gone. I know the producers gave up on a movie, I hope they rethink their position.
Great acting and intergration of characters in a very interesting concept and set design on a limited budget. This show and especially the last story is truly a complement to this syfy series where "Theme, Development and Variation" defines what "Art" really is and puts us in the story and leaves us wanting for more, much like the original movie did so many years ago. Great Job and a kudos and shout out to all the Writers and the all the Actors, and staff who showed off their abilities in accomplishing their trade for the Viewer.
Best Regards, and now what do we watch in all those channels of uninteresting stuff and garbage? A great artist once said, "the worse thing that could happen to the Artist is that One gets "No reaction" from the audience for their (Artists) work". This series made its mark by setting the bar higher for future Syfy TV series. Thank You All in showing off your craft and the Art of Acting and Writing and Story telling!
Andrew
I'm gonna miss all of these characters. Every last one of them. And that's about as high a compliment as I can give.
What I won't miss are Stargate fans in general. The most whiny, bitter, petulant, childish, silly group of fans on the planet. A group of people who want every Stargate fans done the same way, in the same "safe" Disney-like fashion. I never had a problem with folks not liking this show. But the ridiculous campaigns and websites created early on to press for the cancellation of the series was as absurd as anything I've come across from a collection of fans.
Bravo to the actors, directors, designers and, yes, writers of SGU. Cancellation is not necessarily indicative of quality. Some good shows die early just as some bad shows overstay their welcome. SGU falls in the former category.
Hear hear! I can't believe they cancelled the show because of some whining offended idiots who couldn't handle their show , which already ran for about 10 years, being cancelled. The refusal of trying something new is truly indicative of how unqualified these people are for belonging to a fanbase like this one, of how incapable they are to judge a show.
I've watched all the Stargates over the years. This was the most disappointing wrap-up I've seen. Nothing settled, nothing closed. I completely disagree with the author. It made for a great season finale but did nothing to close out arguably the best Stargate series of the franchise. It would be perfect if they made a 2 hour movie wrap-up and fast forwarded 1000 years or so. I need some REAL closure here!
Don't know why Eli wouldn't tranfer his conscious to the ship and live on like the others. Overall good series .. I think they lost with too many caracters, and just one likable in the series specially in the beginning.
I have to say that the final seasonwas just starting to click! I will miss it and wish they had made it home…but like Rush they are on a mission…I liked it, seeing Eli grow into a man. I see eli right now as kind of a protector..guiding his friends safely until he can go to sleep (one way or another)..
I hope it returns, but I dont think they need to go home, they are Destiny and need to continue.
Was really starting to enjoy the show. The ending left me with more questions. They better make a few si fi movies to finish the story
I grew up watching the entire Stargate series so I really hope this isn't the end for the Stargate franchise. I loved this show from the beginning. I stayed with it through the very boring and slow moving season 1 and it was payed off when season 2 came around and really started to get good.
I knew going in that "Gauntlet" was the last episode but by the end I re-checked just to make sure it was a series, and not a season finale because of all the loose ends and possible storyline continuations left behind! Aside from the obvious "what happens to Eli?!" everyone seems to have forgotten one, even more intriguing loose end.
The alien race that created planets, stars, and somehow restored and sent the shuttle back to Destiny.
They just kind of moved on past that whole thought, as if it never happened but whoever did those things would have been one of the most advanced races ever in the franchise; NOT something I will just forget about :p
There was so much more to be said and done in the SGU storyline anyone involved in the cancelling of the series must of been a real idiot.
The decision was like (please pardon my metaphor) spending years drilling for oil, finding little, then finally finding the motherload then just deciding to put away all the drills and leave a giant oil filled chasm just sitting there.
Yeah. Thats what the finale was like for me.
Is they a possibility of another Stargate: XXX? We've had Stargate: SG1, Stargate: Atlantis, Stargate: Universe. How about Stargate: Ancients where they finally meet up with and interact with the ancients. That would be full of possibilities.
I have to disagree with the author of the article. While this episode my have given the main characters a chance to profess their emotional farewells. The series left too many intellectual and character issues unanswered. Given more time the writers and crew would have done a better job closing the dangling loose ends. I don't know the reasons the studio and or network chose to cancel the series. (Probably money and the state of the economy?) I think the series would need four more episodes in minseries form or 2 movie length additions to finish this S0targate series in proper form. Like so many have others have all ready commented, SGU was the most dramatic and compelling of the Stargate series. The large main cast (8) kept the series interesting and compelled viewers to get involved to internalize the weekly dialogue. On an emotional level, it was easy to pick from one to all the characters to identify, embrace and follow the actors journey. A wonderful example of these writers exhibiting their craft in a true art form. Kudos to all involved in the show. I can only hope there is a little more to come!!!
Here's the easiest solution for SyFy to appease SGU fans like me. Take the money they would put into one of their stupid Original Movies that no one watches on Saturdays and put it into a SGU movie to wrap things up. That's all they need to do. Everyone is happy.
This whole franchise has been ripped off, for the moment at least. Like Star Trek and all other Epic Sci Fi shows, this one will have to return. I assume that the fandom is huge, plus much like star trek it has its own convention! This is an EPIC franchise and it really could go on forever. The ending wasn't like the new Battle Star Galatia which in the end the closure was finite. I do hope as well that the Atlantis movie will finish and that someone will restart SGU!
For me, this was just getting really started. Began to love it and waited patiently for each new episode. Not sure I will ever understand the US Networks. So many of my fav shows were shot down before their prime. I guess it's just so much easier to make £25,000 per episode of reality rubbish. No writers, no scripts, no actors – perfect low brow marketing machines for the now, low brow majority of couch potatoes.
Stargate Universe re-ignited a slight interest in the older series. I watched the entire series of SG1 and Atlantis from start to finish, saw a large number of episodes I never saw before, and came to enjoy Atlantis, which I never really watched.
Personally I believe this was the best end we could expect considering the timeline given to the producers. Instead of a hastily slapped on ending they gave us an ending that can be used to further springboard the series forwards.
I've always been a fan of the franchise, but missed the first few episodes of SGU and really didn't start catching up until this season. In a way, maybe I and others like me were part of the cancellation issue. Just when I really started getting into it, then it gets cancelled. With the history of the franchise, it seem they've enough cash to give it more than two seasons.
I was disappointed that the series is ending. There is virtually no more sci-fi left. Star Trek is gone, Star Gate is gone? I guess vampires are in.
As for the ending, it begs for a movie, conclusion or bring the series back to see where they will be in three years…
You call that a series finale? You call that a series? A couple of years of nearly pointless wandering around in space, no real mission, no real likeable characters, mysterious and till unexplained enemies.
Where did the drones come from? Who was responsible for them. Who were the aliens who abducted Chloe and Rush and why? What happened to Chloe and why?
Universe spent many an episode searching for supplies on unknown planets, the latest of which used English on all their business signs, and for what? Why waste all that episode time on such meaningless meandering anyway? Get to the point, folks. There's always room for more imagination in future stories.
Series seemed more like an excuse for a deep, dark version of Stargate — no humor, no likeable characters or plotline.
SyFy is capable of so much more.
To be fair the last few planets that had an english-like language were planets inhabited by the descendants of Destiny (when Eli's plans were off, or maybe Rush screwed them?) and so it would make sense that the language would be so related to English since knowledge and language was passed down by Earthlings and the inhabitants were actual humans who descended from Earth-humans.
I liked SG-1 and SG-A but I loved this show more. It was a really different kind of show, and yes it was "deep, dark" but you can't accuse of it of having no humor, it was just a different kind of humor.
There were likeable characters and there were not so likeable characters that you could still have some sympathy for. It was not as cut and dry as the past SG shows, which is why I liked this show more.
I'm disappointed SyFy didn't renew the show and I will not be watching SyFy anymore.
I've watched all seasons even the Movie, SG-1 e1-e10 214E wow thats alot, the SG-A e1-e5 100E then I was so exited about SG-U the first season the first episode I was so in the mood by the episode 3 of SG-U I was so disappointed with all that teenage dramma, by the 6th episode I looked at my sister and I asked "I you sure we are watching SG-U?" she look at me and she said "Let watch ***********", and I went to prep some popcorn, very disappointed, I'm still have high hopes for the return, but if its gonna be more dramma then I think that the real Final was SG-A, I have all the DVD's and i was thinking to get SG-U but I wont even bother to look at the title at the DVD store… we still don't know what the hell happen to the old enemies like wraith, the furlings we never meet them! wait, I think thats one of the extinct races, what happen to the Nox! now "we" have ships!!! "we" can go visit'em, and so on so on, many thing that StarGate has still yet to show…
I want the humor of General Jonathan J. "Jack" O'Neill, the specialties of Lt. Colonel Samantha Carter, the no smiling of Teal'c, the hard to die of Ronon Dex, Dr. Rodney McKay, Lt. Colonel John Sheppard, so great characters!!! I want them back!!!!!
Honestly I understand why they did what they did, but the ending completely sucked. What happens after? Does Eli actually sleep in stasis with the others? Do they run out of power? Do they make it to 3 years later and all wake up? I would've been happen with at least seeing Eli go to sleep with the other instead of just staring out at the universe. To me it was almost as if he was accepting his fate, like he knew that he couldn't fix the pod and was just going to enjoy his last moments alive… I don't think there was enough closure. Even if, and I do mean IF they do release it again after x amount of yrs, no one will have a clue on where it is going. No one knows if they will continue from the point they left off of go somewhere completely different in it. I would've preferred the complete closure. I was half expecting after the credits to see them wake up 3 yrs later and then the fading to black or something…
For me, this was right up there with one of the worst series finales. Right up there with Angel and Beauty & The Beast
It seems to me that Sci-Fi always manages to cancel a show right when it's getting good, ''hitting its stride,'' as <cite>cougzag </cite>stated.
Think about it, Millennium (although I could have done without all the rooster and owl civil unrest), Firefly, FarScape (IMHO the best Sci-Fi show ever to hit the airwaves – and crackers DO matter), Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and now SGU. Really? Is that their ploy? To have a show start off pretty decently, albeit somewhat shaky, only to have it really find that amazing pace and niche that (finally) puts it head and shoulders above the rest, to then simply cancel it?
Executive Decision is just a euphemism for ''making decisions without regard for consequence, weighing facts or bothering to gather necessary information.'' Whoever the rocket scientists are at Sci-Fi making these executive decisions, stop ''thinking,'' or more accurately, start thinking!
They didn't cancel Firefly.
Fox did. And Fox will never be forgiven.
On a topic related note, I'm waiting for the time when they can return to the franchise with a new movie or series. I need my Stargate fix, Plain and simple. No matter what form.
Between cancelling every good series once it gets it's legs and this stupid "Season Premier" followed by the "Season Finale" six or seven shows later, I plan to bag TV altogether as soon as I can get my wife to break the habit. Unfortunately she's still hooked on the awesome stupidity of Survivor and the 'race around the world whatever'. Between cancellation of anything good ie: that which makes you think, and seven show seasons wherein you don't even remember who the H is who by the time it comes back, it just doesn't seem worth bothering with anymore.
Did anybody notice that the last shots of the destiny were almost identical to the very, very beginning of episode 001?
Oh, my god I can't live without this show! And even if they had it on I-tunes I couldn't buy it. Somebody help me please, bring back SGU! We need you!
This series had just started to get good, are they serious? I found SGU to be the best stargate out of all of them. It's very disappointing to see a good show get canceled I hope this decision gets reconsidered.
In my opinion, this whole SGU jaunt was an embarrassment to the Stargate franchise. I know exactly what they were trying to do – put a Battlestar Galactica feel to it. However, they failed miserably.
Every episode's problem was either about those dumb stones or the droids. Get over it. They did those stupid stones to DEATH.
I honeslty feel very embarrassed for the writer's and producsers of this show. It's like an aging ballplayer that has past his prime and tries to get that one last good year but ends up embarrasing himself instead (a la Bill Buckner).
SG1 and Atlantis were top notch shows, and more importantly, they were FUN. The characters were all likable, from Col. O'Neil to Col. Carter to Teal'c to Teyla to Ronan to Sheppard to McKay – all likable, even lovable. Even General Hammond was a very likable charcter.
SGU lacked a credible nemesis (unless you count those dumb "drones"). Instead, it was all about power struggles and in-fighting to poor decisions and stupid romances aboard a drab ship that hurt your eyes to look at after the first 30 minutes.
What a waste!
Ok. Now they have time to hire competant writers. When the series re-launches, hopefully they will have stronger plot lines with an eye to the future of the franchise.
Better control of Destiny, finding a way to stop the constant power drain this series had written in. To obvious what was going to be the cause of conflict, dropping out of FTL for supplies or a fillup on Destiny's power reserves. I mean if this ship was supposed to have been traveling in space for thousands of years, power shouild never be an issue.
Needs more action. Not just graphics on Destinys computer screens. In the other Stargate series they used people from other planets and cultueres to fill out teams. Need to have just a little of that.
NO CHILDREN!!!!!! No animals. No creatrures that are invisible and affect the minds of crew members.
Since the Seed Ship had already been through, why haven't the found equipment stores? Even today military units have reserve equipment and food stashed in multiple places for covert units. An advanced culture would do the same.
Bit this ending isn't as bad as the Soprano's.
Thank you Brad Wright, Robert C Cooper etc for making such a wonderful show. I have loved every second of every minute of every episode of SG1, SGA and SGU. for the first time since I was a 14 years old no one will be making stargate. SGU was cancelled just when it started to get good. not just good but REALLY good. SGU was a show that had earnt respect when so many people were ready to turn their back on the franchise, and SyfyThanks for destroying the one show that kept people watching your ridiculous channel. Syfy hey? The program lineup just blows me away with its science fiction content… Do the right thing Syfy and and resurrect this show, let them tell the story that we all want to hear and see. If you don’t. I like many others will never watch your channel again. Thanks SGU for being such a great show and syfy WTF? Seriously WTF? thanks for nothing.
Brad and the rest, you guys rock. Stargate was the best SCIFI ever written (along with Battlestar, which at least got to tell its story).
Long live SGU… one of the best SCIFI shows ever created.
I will miss SGU very much. Yes I love scifi, but it's more than that. For that last several years I have been searching for proof that aliens exist or exited by using no other than NASA or ESA photos and videos. I proved it a 100 times over that they are real or at least, were real once. Shows like this give me a glimpse at what our future could actually have in store for us. Also if you know about the discoveries of the UK hacker Gary McKinnon, then you also know…about the off world mission, ships and US Marines that he found information on. SGU is more than a show, it may very well have been created to cover up a real mission by the US military. Don't discard this as some foolish uneducated nut job. I own my own successful business, I also have a UFO site as a hobby, and I a Masters Degree in Counseling.
What I am saying is I wish the show had never ended and I hope one day they will continue it, but today…reality is hidden from all of us, unless you seek the truth. The show has not truly ended.
I think that all the fans should get together and pay a dollar or more like donations to put it back on Air.
You could try it ,-)
There are very few good syfy stuf coming out these days.
It would be a great loss to throw this away I think.
I realy hope there will come new series of stargate.
The problem is that all we can do is hope that they deside to continu.
It was/is a great show.
And I like to thank them for making it.
SGU was one of the best stargate shows ever. The finally was horrible so many unanswered. Questions and one thing that bothers me is that we neverfound out what that signal. Was that the ancients found and the reason destiny was created. The at the least there could have been a flash of light or something just to make you feel that you got 1 thing out of watching the finally.
Great series with Eli…wish Scott would go away. To many episodes between scott and Chloe makes it too much like a teen drama!
Had to republish the following comment because there is some truth in it.
