Their version of Survivor is a bit more intense.
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Okay, I know the Stargate hackswriters like to have pretty sparks and explosions on the bridge of their ships whenever there's an enemy attack, but wouldn't the Hammond have the same Asgard weaponry and other upgrades that made the Odyssey capable of fighting off multiple Ori dreadnaughts? Since when can the Lucian Alliance field the kind of firepower that could put that on the ropes?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Oh, you're watching the new show, aren't you? Bless your heart.

Amanda Tapping and Ming Na get them my viewership for the pilot. I suspect I'll have long since quit by the time the episodes dealing with the skeevier aspects of body-swapping air.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
If Amanda Tapping is on Stargate:Whatever, does that mean Sanctuary is cancelled? I'm a bad fan.

I'm sure she's just helping launch the new series. Sanctuary did get a second season.

Well, I'm glad. There was potential there. The stories weren't bad, and the acting wasn't bad, it just hadn't really gelled, for me. Maybe it'll find its legs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't lie. I want to peek. But I'm mad for the first time at the idea of my DVR being counted.

Thankfully I'm DVR-less, so unless someone from Nielsen drops by unexpectedly my watching can't give the asshats at Bridge Studios any ratings points.

I read a good review of the new Stargate in the Boston Globe, who usually doesn't dole out pro forma superlatives. Not sure what that means as I haven't watched it, but they commented on the unusually good cast.
That may chap my ass a bit about the retroactive lack of respect for Browder and Black at least (I'm afraid since I barely watched SG, that any of the other actor's creds are a mystery to me).
