'Earth' has been the best episode of SGU thus far in my opinion, was a little faster paced and had more of a Stargate feel than the episodes previous.
But there is a growing negativity towards SGU online of people who just don't like the show for what ever reason. The advice to those people is to give it 3 more episodes.
Yup, and I will. They need to pick up the pace a little. We get the ship is old, move on with the story...
Well, I think the latest episode 'Time' has to be the best one yet. It was obvious at one point that the story we were watching wasn't the typical one, although I thought the episode was done quite well. What did everyone else think?
I already typed out what I thought on Gateworld but might aswell copy and paste it here:
Spoiler:
I enjoyed this episode, like others have said it did have a more “Stargate” feel to it than the episodes previously. This one had: sci-fi elements, action & hostile aliens which is what some people have been saying the previous episodes lacked.
Some people picked up on the end being a cliffhanger: What more do we need to know?
Its easy to create your own explanation and assume that LT Scott’s plan worked: He sends the Kino through the Stargate to the past with the new info, The Destiny arrives at the planet and the team find the Kino, They watch the footage and follow the clear instructions Scott left on how to cure the virus and since they know what to do and have time to be able to do it nobody dies. Do we really need another episode to see that?
David Blue’s acting portraying Eli was just amazing in this episode. The scene right before when Chloe died reminded me of the emotion you used to feel between O’Neill & Carter, it could bring a tear to your eye lol.
Kinda agree on the Kino cam though, it was used a little to much in this episode and did get annoying at times. I personally would have preferred if it was first established that it was Kino footage but then see it normally and not always from the Kino’s perspective.

To be honest when I first watched it, I sort of forgot that those things have that cam effect.
Spoiler:
Was thinking the whole time before they flipped over to the Destiny, that it was an nice little alien bug watching them, as they did in a couple of episodes for the other SG's.
I really liked the episode. Mainly because of the end though. It's so nicely muddled and we don't know which crew is real, which we've been following, or which one died. Sort of reminds me of the episodes in voyager where they found out they were just copies.
As to Earth
Spoiler:
I was actually pretty bored by the episode. Have them finally loose normal contact with Earth. Have them be really really lost for a while instead of this annoying flitting back anf forth. i don't know, it was just boring. The end of it didn't help. Knowing he did it, but didn't have proof, might have been better.
Though considering that we're soon coming to mid-seasonm, we'll soon
Code:
have a an explanation for that leaving dropship in one of the first episodes
Code:
Not to mention that the last three episodes are called
Time-Life-Justice. Seems a pretty strong indication.
The combine has not been forgotten

Does anyone have a HD picture of the Destiny? I'd like one as a desktop background and unfortunatly, the UK iTunes store doesn't have SGU in HD for some bizarre reason.
Actually looking for a version of a pic of the Desting from its fore view at the beginning of 'Time' or any episode where the Destiny appears in the 'previously on' segment of episodes so that it doesn't have the credits in the picture aswell.
I appreciate you helping, but those images are still too small. They would get horribly stretched and pixelated when setting them as a background. If anyone has pictures like the ones Tanith posted in 1080p, could they please upload them?
Pending...

I absolutely love this new series. I used to watch SG-1, which was a bit more comical than serious. This is very dark and I like it. Plus it's got Robert Carlyle in it.
