Maybe the feds are trying to catch us collectively watching Atlantis is fantastic but once you notice that the writers liked to extremely overused the pregnant pause to cause tension it gets kind of annoying on re-watch. "Sheppards jumper just disappeared from our scopes!!" *reaction shots* "Sheppard this is Elizabeth, Are you there?" *static and reaction shots* "Anything on the sensors?" "No Ma'am" "Sheppard this is Atlantis Control, .....John...........Do you read?!" *reaction shots of worried people* *a few more seconds* *........* "This is Sheppard " *control room bursts into cheers* It's like Sheppard was a dickhead that got off on waiting 2 minutes to respond to radio calls. Happens a billion times. The reason i can comfortably talk about stargate in this climate catastrophe is that I heard about Shell's carbon capture plant being fully operational. Now to check the rest of the thread for any related news while drinking an endangered morning coffee......

sg1 year 1-5 was good. everything else is extremely variable. i think atlantis really wasted a lot of interesting opportunity and universe completely hosed it up. it could’ve been so cool to travel the universe lost and alone but no, they get to psychically travel to earth every episode

i've gotten to sg-1 s10 again and way too many episodes start with the mid-conflict up front, then after the intro credits it starts with whatever happened before without so much as a cursory "24 Hours Earlier" title card also kinda hosed up that throughout all of the series SGC+ insists that these other cultures need to disclose fully with their populations what's actually going on while maintaining as much secrecy as possible on Earth word is if the new series actually happens it'll be post-disclosure for Earth which may make for some good flashbacks Free Jaffa: "We'd like to show the Tau'ri our appreciation for their efforts in freeing us."

they are called stargates but as far as I can tell the gates don't actually go to any stars, just the planets nearby. And thank god for that

They gave us world peace, cured all disease, doubled our lifespans, geo-engineered the planet and in return they just wanted to sterilize most of humanity to keep us from loving up the planet.

Im the weirdo who liked the first 2/3rds of Universe. Not better than SG:1, but I don’t think it deserves the hate. Doctor Beckett had the best character arc in Atlantis, and they even only killed him the one time.

But posted:In a lot of ways covid has also been a catalyst for positive change as well. For many industries and individuals the new work from home norm has improved both work/life balance and productivity. It also has helped push people into retirement who are typically high wage earners but not necessarily high productivity individuals. This improves the job market for younger, potentially more productive individuals.
