Since Atlantis started, I have been watching both series by following the watch guide on the gateworld website.

While seasons 9 and 10 of SG-1 were OK, they were not nearly as interesting as Atlanis was, so I found myself looking forward to finishing SG-1.

Now, that it is over, I am a bit relieved and in future rewatches, I will likely skip seasons 9 and 10.

Atlantis has been great the whole way though. I really like the cast, but I just saw that Weir was replaced and I am surprised about that decision as I thought she played that role really well.

I am still early in season 4 of Atlantis, but I will likely get through it quickly as I put the show on any chance I get.

I did watch the ark of truth movie and did not like that at all. I look forward to the next movie, which I believe I am supposed to watch at the end of season 4 of Atlantis.

    Sometimes I feel like the only fan that actually likes Mitchell, Vala, the Ori, all of it.

      You are not alone. ✊

      I really liked Mitchell and Vala. I’m not as keen on the Ori. It was a great idea, and not bad in execution IMO. But I feel like they made them a bit too tropey.

      Vala was fun and Ori were cool. While S9 and 10 were weaker, they were still good.

      I didn’t like Mitchell much though. And don’t get me started on the “getting the band together” arc at the start of S9.

    I find that if I regard seasons 9 and 10 as seasons 1 and 2 of a different show, they’re more fun. Should have been called “SG-2”

    A lesser leader and his very tired veterans leave the big stuff to the fresh leading team of SG-1.

    They bring back a lot of the low stakes campy stillness of the first two seasons of SG-1.

    I recently finished Atlantis, and I feel that even it provides closure, ending was abrupt.

    Now to SG-U.

      SGU had some interesting tech, but they focused mostly in the people and, in my opinion, lost a lot of what made Stargate special. Feels more like a soap opera than a sci-fi show.

      What irked me the most was Mitchell being introduced. I mean, i get that RDA was getting tired, but they should have just given Carter the unit command and brought in a wildcard for the fourth slot, but your comic is correct i suppose in that they did not want to change the formula.

    Atlantis is awesome, the only letdown for me was the ending. I believe the intention was to do one or two movies just like they did with SG-1 to wrap everything up. But it fell through and so we were left hanging.
