Stargate Universe Recap 1.07: Earth

On Earth, life is even more complicated for the crew and passengers of the Destiny than their uncertain existence on the ship. That’s the lesson for this week. Man eating dust devils, no water or air and sun surfing, those are easy. It’s relationships that are hard. I can understand this....

See The Preview Of This Weeks Stargate Universe Episode Earth

Stargate Universe is a popular little Sci-Fi effort that seems to have a certain strange attraction to both Nix and I and you, out there, in the dark beyond the tubes. Some people like it, some people hate it, some people just watch, uncertain of how it as yet computes in their estimation. I want it...

Stargate Universe Recap 1.06: Water

As I have been dutifully preparing to write this weeks episode recap of SGU, I’ve been wracking my brain trying to think of a particular moment or event in the story to launch from. Did anything really happen at all in “Water”? I don’t think so. The episode didn’t exactly...

Stargate Universe Recap 1.05: Light

Amidst the early episode cheese, boobs and startup fumbling in “Stargate Universe”, I detected faint traces of fascinating Sci-Fi possibilities. In the 5th episode of SGU, I think we finally have what we’ve been waiting for. I’ve never watched Stargate before as a television series,...

Sci-Fi Babe Spotlight: The Girls Of Stargate Universe

Oh you knew it was coming. Here I was, innocently studying the last episode of SGU (Darkness), pen in hand, scribbling notes for further intelligent discussion when Blamo!, out came the Boobs.

Stargate Universe Recap 1.04: Darkness

Welcome to the episode 4 recap. When we last left Dr. Rush, Eli Wallace, Colonel Young and friends aboard the starship Destiny, they had just figured out that whole breathable air thing. Oxygen is good. Other than the life support conditions aboard the Destiny, there’s not a lot of other things...

Stargate Universe’s Alaina Huffman and Elyse Levesque are Steppin’ Out

Here are two more reasons to watch “Stargate: Universe” — Alaina Huffman and Elyse Levesque are on the cover of “Steppin’ Out” magazine. I have no idea what the magazine does, or where it’s steppin’ out to, but it can’t be all bad if it’s giving...

Well, SGU is certainly being discussed around these parts. It seems that despite the early mixed reaction, Sci-Fi kids are tuning in to the tale of the fateful trip through a Stargate less traveled.

Get a Glimpse Of Stargate Universe Episode 3

TV Review: Stargate Universe – Pilot (#2)

I am just about a Stargate virgin. I have seen the first movie, starring Kurt Russell and James Spader and I liked it. It had a cool concept and I really liked the whole Egyptian mythic tie-in. Since that movie it just hasn’t been on the radar. I’m sorry. I’ve been a very, very, bad...
