I know. Gross, but accurate. Or maybe the image should be a Ferengi woman pre-chewing the gum for you.
That image is just too gross to entertain, man!

Source & More: Chicago TribuneA 'Stargate Universe' producer takes issue with criticism of the show. Here's my response
Source & More: tvbythenumbers.comThe drop off in SGU ratings is perhaps not quite as alarming as White Collar dropping from 5.075 million down to below four million, but there have been consecutive weekly drops for Stargate Universe and Friday it was down to 1.626 million viewers (live+SD). A week earlier it averaged 1.974 million so that’s still almost an 18% drop week over week…
I expect they have gotten the message, but of course it is probably too late. These episodes are done, and maybe the next batch made can make some improvements.
Here's the thing, and there's no easy way around this...if they wanted something "like" BSG, why didn't they just run BSG to a 5th season instead of wrapping it up in 4 seasons? Trying to turn Stargate into a mix of BSG/Stargate/Voyager wasn't a good idea when we first heard about the series being in-development, and it still hasn't turned into a good idea after what, 4 or 5 episodes into it.
I know the general plot and understand it quite well. I can see and understand most of the character's motivations and backgrounds (Rush's motives are still a bit fuzzy). The storylines have been predictable and generally uninteresting. I'm simply hanging in there and giving it/them a chance to DO SOMETHING. If this show doesn't get a move on by the mid-season break, I'm going to stop bothering to give it my time.
There are simply too many other things to do or watch besides a show that's dull, plodding, predictable and pendantic...
