Anyone watch the show? Is it good? It won the People's Choice Award for Favorite Sci-Fi Show, beating out Battlestar...I admit, I'm intrigued.

Oh, it's good. :) It's no Firefly, of course, but the best thing out there, for now.

IMHO, it's gotten much better this season, but it's still not as good as the first five years of Stargate: SG-1.

It's getting better, now that Jewel Staite has joined the cast. It isn't Firefly but, it is still one of the only shows I watch nowadays.

It's a great show, but has been sliding lately. I recently watched the first three seasons on DVD and Season number one was the best, going a bit downhill in seasons 2 and 3 and season 4 has been so-so up to now. Jewel is in it but she isn't in every episode, only 11 or 12 in season 4 and sometimes only in one or two scenes. She has gotten a lot of hate from the fans for two reasons: she is preceived to have replaced Paul McGillion, whose character, the beloved Dr. Carson Beckett was killed last year; and second, I don't know what happened to her, but Jewel isn't very good in this role. She plays a doctor and she hasn't really made an impact. Granted the writer's have made her this nervous, overly serious, shy, whining doctor who happens to be the head of medicine on the most important scientific research project in all history. Makes you wonder why she ever got the job, her character I mean, nt the actress. Anyway, she has had some good stuff and is romantically linked to another main charcter now, but still, she has a lot of work to do to win over the older fans. I hope they give her better episodes next season and make her more of a main character.

Oh whaaaaaaaaaaat!! I didn't know Jewel was going to show up!! WHat a suprise!!!!!!!!!!

I just started watching Atlantis, and am sending netflix back disc 4 so I can get disc 5 of the first season. So far it's awesome, starting out better than all shows besides Firefly and Battlestar. I can't believe Jewel is coming in season 4, that is most welcome news.

Is Atlantis good? Of course it is! I watched SG-1 for a long time, just because they kept pumping out so-so episode after so-so episode. (SG-1 gave me what Firefly couldn't.) Now Atlantis is like SG-1 2.0: better and funnier. Unlike most shows coming out, they don't try to be completely serious, slipping jokes about the show in, characters, and TV/movies in general. It's giving me something great to watch while I wait for Battlestar to come back.

A testament to how much I like it: When I get that netflix envelope, I watch all episodes on it the same day. :) I would still give it up, along with my left leg, to get Firefly back on.

Stargate Atlantis is the best Sci-fi show on TV right now.. I really love the show... I also think people should support it more or else it will be taken off the air too, and we will get more Ghost hunter stories instead.

Last ep (0414) was fun, too. Especially the ending. :)

Little girl was mighty annoying and bratty at first. But I guess McKay was willing to see past what she was, and on to what she could be. Were it me, I'd probably leave her lay and haul anchor. :) Nah; but I wouldn't exactly be bringing her tea and dumplings, either. :)
