I can't believe they are bumping SG:A for this CRAP.
I mean it sounds and looks like a typically poorly written and badly acted british low-budget scifi series, like that crappy DrWHo and whatnot.

Did I say it is CRAP?

I'm pissed.

 

[ShipWreck]

I DVR'd it to watch later

 

[M1P90]

I watched it for a little while but had to change the channel. IT WAS SO LAME! Amanda Tapping has got to be kicking herself for forgoing SGA and SG1 for this crap.

I watched it. It was OK so I'll give next week's a chance. It has a ton of people involved in it from both Stargate series. The main bad guy is the wraith called Todd and Major Lorne is in it as well. Also one of the Genii from SGA.

The show is Canadian, not British.

Thanks, I knew I heard the voice before but could not place the face.

 

[ShipWreck]

I tried watching 20 min of it and gave up

Her accent is original. She was born in England and makes her home/work in Canada.

 

[javi]

hard to imagine, after watching sg1 for so long, guess I am more used to her sg1 "accent"

 

[M1P90]

I also hated her hair. BLACK? :evil:

 

[ShipWreck]

My wife watched about 1/2 of it, and I walked thru periodically. Glad I quite at the 20 min mark.

 

[MrNuke7571]

Glad I wasn't the only one that thought it stunk bigtime.

It really reminds me of a low-budget British scifi show. Poorly written, predictable outcome and really bad acting.

 

[O'Neill]

Pure crap!

 

[rmdye]

wow you guys are making me wonder about my self now.. :evil:


i kind of liked it..

i didnt think it was bad, i thought the Dr was trying to play Daniel or something. i left it on season pass.

I didn't think it was that bad either. Remember a lot of series premieres have been rough and this was was in no way anywhere close to being as bad as you guys describe. Remember shows like "Manimal" or "Galactica 1980"?

Some of the best writing (and acting) on TV has appeared in horrifically low budget British television productions. Stories and dialog from these shows are still being reused to this day.

Yeah re-used and re-written by people with actual imagination. :-D

I'll check out another episode 'MAYBE' but even the premise of the story-line seemed pretty weak to me. We'll see I guess.

Didnt she move to Canada when she was like two?

If so, I wouldn't say that is her "original" accent, if you hear her speak in any of the SG interviews, she's got a distinctly "Ab-oot" Canadian accent.

I think it's a different kind of show, much less sci fi, much more Fantasy.

 

[tqtran]

Its not her real accent. In an interview she stated that she had to learn the "old English" accent. Which is different than current English accent.
Its sort of a blend between "mid-Atlantic" and current English accents.
