Still laying groundwork..., 11 October 2009
5/10
Author: Patrick Maderia from United States

While not moving the show forward in any real way, this episode serves to firm up the characters a bit more and give us a taste of the planet-hopping to come. The only issues with this are the lead roles are still very one-dimensional, and the planet was an empty desert and uninteresting as they come.

I'm still cautiously optimistic for this show; no, it's not the campy-adventure series that was SG1, and nor is it the deep melodrama like BSG, and as such many decry the lack of..."oomph" in this Stargate outing. But I can foresee some great things from this show (I just hope that SGU doesn't pull a Voyager and wait 4 seasons before really maturing).

On the bright side, the writer's are stealing a page from "Lost"s book and providing some flashbacks as well as a vehicle to keep the characters in touch with people back home, thereby opening doors for deeper story-arcs that transcend several galaxies (at least physically...sorta). And Ely is definitely making a good impression. I would just rather enjoy the entire ensemble than one character...again, giving it time.
