Episode 1/2 - Rising


it better be good ... VERY good......

[Tiara]

Heh, I just watched SG-1 Season 8 premiere on my PC as full screen goodness (734 MB version)

It was pretty damned good. Looking forward to Atlantis too

[Ashrak]

734 mb 0.o *looks for DL*

I'm personally not looking forward to it... At least in my area, its going to take timeslots away from SG1, and it just doesn't look that good... I love SG1, but to introduce a new series is more likely to harm SG1 then to help it... Its like that old animated version idea...

[Tiara]

It'd better not be like Voyager was for Star Trek. (IE: A series that ass rapes the whole concept.)

[ShadowWolf_IH]

actually i think it's going to be ok.

[Thorn]

I dunno.. that Wraith Queen looks like cheeese...

[Nuke]

the fact that they are not wearing military uniforms scares me. why do all theese scifi shows make people wear uniforms that any self respecting circus performer wouldnt touch with a 10 foot pole. the b5 uniforms were cool, the crusade uniforms, gay. the old trek uniforms, gay, the trek movie (1-7) uniforms, cool. the tng, early ds9, voyager, uniforms were sorta gay, the new movie uniforms 8-9 and late ds9 were kinda cool. theese atlantis uniforms are hella gay lookin.

[Tiara]

The MACO uniforms were cool

[Nuke]

i think theyd be better off in the wormhole extreeme uniforms.

[neo_hermes]

@ Nuke really?

its better than being naked thats for sure!

They have more of a navy look to their uniforms but its the same uniform.  Just less green and more grey and blue.  , they much like the SG-1 uniforms are essentially military issue with a few tweaks for television/plot.

They work pretty well.

[WMCoolmon]

Looking forward to it.

So I want to hear if it was good...it's going to be another 2 months at least before I see it.

Global picking it up or something? Thats the only Canadian network I can think of that would....

[Dough with Fish]

Eh, it's on right now.

The begennigng was good, but only because of the SG1 cast being in it. It's gotten a little slow, and a bit cliche, and the cast is a bit odd (lolz, T-1000 is in it) but it still has an hour left, so hopefully it'll pick up.

[JR2000Z]

I haven't watched SG1 but I'm ejoying this series right now.

[Ace]

Not half bad. The uniforms aren't as bad as I thought they were either.

While the overall plot was similar the pilot of SG-1, they did it in a way that was very different.

Hopefully the next few episodes will maintain a high quality, if they do this could be a worthy spinoff.

[Fenrir]

I liked it. If they can keep it up, we'll have a great spinoff of a great show.

And what's so bad about the uniforms? Does it really detract from the show that much?

Looks good. Teyla is pretty hawt too

Although I think that the suspension of disbelief was stretched a bit much..."Say, let's go check out this random planet for EXTREMELY advanced Ancient tech. Let's figure out how to use all this stuff without so much as a readme or even an Office Assisstant."

And of course Daniel's "Hey guys, I was just thinking, wouldn't it be so funny if it was actually a 8-chevron address? And then I realized, hey, I just found the Lost City of Atlantis! Err, sorry about that last season and a half of people dying or so..."

Edit: But it really was good.
