See, because the show is completely different in tone and portrayal of the people involved from SG-1, because they jumped on the humanity is an asshat bandwagon that later-season BSG picked up.

SGU doesn't make any sense if you have seen earlier Stargates but not the 'whole' series.

Btw BSG fans afaik don't care for SGU.

Been watching Voyager again lately, oddly enough, it hasn't aged as badly as some other Star Trek franchises, interesting to think that it's around 15 years old now...

That's what I figured.

Oh well, I only have about half a season to watch in order to be up to date with SG1. :D

Spike plays a random episode once every blue moon. I haven't looked for them online, but I bet that they're out there.

Well, you can find a fair bit on youTube if you don't mind the lower quality stuff, other than that, there's a TV Channel in the UK which plays a lot of Star Trek stuff, including Voyager, but I can't remember its name :(

That's probably it, I was watching it in Glasgow over the new year, but never made a note of the channel :)

Yeah, not a huge fan of watching stuff like that on youtube... Tried watching episode 1 of Stargate Atlantis on there... eh...

Yes, Virgin 1 are showing Voyager, DS9 and TNG. Voager each night, I think TNG & DS9 during the day, then repeating the lot over the weekend.
They're also showing The Outer Limits and X-Files but keep moving them about making it hard to pin them down.
My cheapo FreeView box can only get about 6 channels but I only watch Dave and Virgin1 anyway.

I just saw a cool scene. Voyager get's hit by a species 8417(or whatever) projectile, goes into an X and Y axis spin but engages warp to escape mid-spin, complete with variable nacelle AWESOME.

It's species 8472 (I can't believe that I remember that). :oops:

Species 8473 was better, though.

Better than that crummy 626, anyway.

Humans should be species 1337 ;)
