I'm a little behind. Just for the heck of it, I set my PVR to tape every episode of "Stargate SG-1" whenever it's on (but it doesn't save duplicates). I never really watched the show. Until two weeks ago, I'd seen fewer than a dozen episodes, so they're all new to me.

Downside: there's about 10+ hours of Stargate per week and 16-20 if there's a morning-midday marathon.

I'm leaving one Sarah Jane on the dish until next week to watch the two parts together. I haven't gotten around to BSG yet. It just seems like a chore. Especially when Stargate is so much fun. And Doctor Who is just fun as well.

I really like Stargate too... I had the worst timing, though, cause I started watching SG-1 literally only weeks after it went off the air (I’d catch random episodes when I was a kid and bored, but I don’t remember much other than the fact that I liked it because lots of things exploded and there were wormholes and astrophysics). Anyways, I’m hoping I’ll catch up on Atlantis before the next season starts, I don’t think it’s quite as good (and it doesn’t have quite as many explosions) but it’s still a lot better than most of the other stuff I find on TV these days...

I never could get into BSG for some reason... the camera work annoyed me to no end (shaky cameras are only OK if they’re supposed to be someone’s handycam), and so did the lady in the red dress. I don’t know why I wasn’t interested, cause it wasn’t for a lack of action, spaceships, explosions, etc., but I found it really hard to watch, and I wouldn’t care less if all the characters were to suddenly die or something.

PS. WHEN are all these episodes on? I’ve seriously never seen SG-1 on recently except once earlier in the year when it was something like 2 AM and I was channel-surfing looking for something to play in the background while I did my homework, and once last year on a local broadcast channel.
