An expedition living on an ancient abandoned space-ship, cut-off from earth and far from home.
Doesn't *that* sound familiar? I mean, other from the ship apparently operating and flying in a way on autopilot to fulfill it's mission - didn't we just see a show canceled that had an expedition from earth living on an ancient abandoned space-ship (what *else* is Atlantis basically?) and was - in it's first season - cut-off from earth and far from home?
Great. *insert appropriate sarcasm here*
Apparently TPTB realized that this "first season"-feeling of SGA was a success with the audience (and they *did* try to get some of this back by destroying the gate-bridge in S 4) and try to reinstall it with SGU. Methinks getting Atlantis back in contact with earth again might have been a mistake...
>>breaking new ground in the relationships between mostly young and desperate explorers,<<
If they get any younger than Keller (I have nothing against Keller, in fact, I want Carson *and* Keller) they have to pass around the Clearsil and have to hire a chaperone to watch over sleepovers and pajama-parties.
'Young and desperate' Ah, in the face of this description I can't help but ask "are they out of puberty yet?"
Clearly, the SGA-fanbase might in parts not be congruent with the target audience of SGU. I refuse to watch a show that makes me feel like a cradle robber because the hero (or the heroine, for that matter) I'm supposed to gush over could be the younger of my sons/daughters.
