So the second Stargate franchise comes to an end. Sad, but not suprising I guess. I have enjoyed Stargate Atlantis, but still prefer SG-1 over SGA anyday. I will miss the characters, especially Rodney McKay, Elizabeth Weir, Sheppard, and Zelenka. The good news is MGM has greenlit a two hour movie for 2009 for Stargate Atlantis and if the previous SG-1 movies are any indication it will be great. The final episode airs Friday 9/8C on SciFi.
Comment Discussion: Did you like “Vegas”, the recent Stargate Episode? John Sheppard as a detective? Wraith serial killer? Alternate realities? Zelenka in a suit? I didn’t really love it, was kinda hoping for more ya know? What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.

I hope Torri Higginson will come to her senses & decide to be in the upcoming Stargate:Atlantis movie. I liked SGA better than SG1. SG1 lost something when Richard Dean Anderson left the show. I mostly stopped watching it after he left. Anderson was the only reason I’d started watching it in the first place (I loved him on “MacGyver”). It sucks that Malozi & the writers screwed up SGA the way they did. My favorite characters were John Sheppard & Elizabeth Weir. I never really liked Rodney. “Vegas” was ok although in my opinion the alternate reality thing has been overdone in scifi. The series finale was great(except for the fact that Weir wasn’t in it).
Lacee, I agree SG1 definitely lost something when Richard Dean Anderson left. MacGyver was like my second father growing up, lol.
Almost everyone I talk with list Weir as one of their favorite characters. I also hope to see her in the movie!
Thanks for the comment.
Phil,
I never missed one episode of either series. I concur that SG1 was slightly more enjoyable than SGA. I really liked Claudia Black. I wish SciFi would pick her up and give her a show. Heck…I wish they’d bring Farscape back too. I thought Rodney was the best character on SGA. I can’t get enough of that guy.
I really enjoyed Vegas! The writing was fanstastic!
I really enjoyed the final show Friday night…except for the fact that the map showed Atlantis landing north of Hawaii, but when they came out on the ‘cloaked’ deck they were looking at SanFran. That was bad.
I will really miss Stargate. SciFi has nothing else to watch…..
Stargate Atlantis is the best series ever made, I do not like sg1 really, but atlantis is awsome. so far i have watched all episodes 5 times, and I intend to carry on. My fav charicter is definatly carson becket. I really wish there were more episodes though.
