Stargate Universe

This show is currently the centre of much debate in the office and i wanted to know what people on here thought of it

Mrs L and I have watched all of the Stargate off-shoots and we're enjoying this one just like the others.

Quite like the grittier aspect of the story-line and the characters but Mrs L says she's upset Ronin isn't in this one because "he was such a good actor.......with his top off and looking moody"....dirty moo that she is!

One of the reasons I'm not normally on live on Tuesdays along with Chuck and Dolls House.

I'm enjoying Chuck, Only recently started catching it,

Enjoyed SG1 so may have to check this out. Cheers for the heads up.

Loved all the Stargate series and films, not caught up on the new one, must torrent. Watched all the first Dollhouse, is there a 2nd season?

2 nd season started last week, Rob

Yeah....and it's a bit.....erm....odd.

I think that's the best way to describe it.

Yes, very. I keep thinking I missed something.

I havent started on the 2nd series of dollhouse yet going to download it when the series is finished so i dont have to wait a week between episodes

You'll like the new opening credits

Last night's episode was particularly interesting?!?!

Haven't watched it yet, but was interested by the subject matter.

Have your quizicle "Whaaaa???" face at the ready.

Will do! I'll try and watch it tonight, after TT and Wingman.

Its not bad. I quite like it.

Big stargate fan. Looks promising, quite gritty. Copying BSG by any chance? And the soldierette has big norks.

SGU followed by chuck is 2 hours of quality tele, sky+ is a godsend.

I think that Stargate really needed a grittier edge as it had just turned ito sunday afternoon cheese. Taking notes from BSG can only be a good thing for the franchise.
Anyone here watch flash forward I've given up on it as it was too stupid, but loving True Blood at the min almost have 2nd season finished. Just got to wait the 6 months until season 3 of chuck!!!!!!

What's chuck about? not a big fan of season 1 of trueblood, but loved the 2nd season - absolute madness.

Chucks is a geek spends all his time working in a BuyMore (electrical goods store) where he runs the tech support section (the Nerd Herd).
He gets an e-mail from a guy he knew at college, and it downloads lots of Government secrets into his head.
The original computer these were all on is destroyed, so now only he has all this information, and so he has to continue his normal life whilst also being a highly prized Government 'asset', and is protected by two agents, one posing as his girlfriend, and the other as a co-worker.

Adam Baldwin working retail, would be a shorter sell line!

Oh, and it's funny! Not at all serious.

Chuck is about an underachieving IT worker that accidentaly gets all of the US government secrets downloaded into his brain after watching a program an old college friend sent him (who was now a secret agent). He then gets recruited to be an undercover spy as he has all of the background knowledge on terrorists in his mind.

Very funny and parodies that kind of game geek lifestyle a few times. There one ep where he gets out of being captured with the old lie that the whole place is surrounded; and when the terrorists don't believe him, he calls his best friend and gets him to describe his plan to him which is actually his mates team tactics for CoD:WaW

Chuck =
A nerdy bloke works in currys, ivy league droput, has the national intelligence database downloaded into his brain (no this is not johnny neumonic!!!). Since uber important asset, protected by fit CIA ass kicking blonde (whom he fancies) and a gruff NSA bod (a baldwin who can act, who'd have thunk it). The 'asset' is chased lots by baddy spies, working for some private spie group, who are pretty crap at shooting. The fellow currys employees are misfits. Sister is a moaney cow doctor, who is marrying mr awesome. Chucks dad and the blondes dad are both famous sci fi legends.

Can't belive we all posted that at the same time. Will have to vote to see whoi gave the best description (I could do with another medal).

Well, you slagged off Ellie, so your out!!!!

both good, sold it to me fellas, gonna get hold of chuck - sounds great.

Smellie Ellie? At least someone from saved by the bell had a real career afterwards. (apart from the screech porn )
