Well Atlantis coming to an end and can't say I was pleased. I think what killed Atlantis for me was the "Green" episode (with Bill Nye the Science Guy)..

The season started out good.. I do like Woosley. He surprised me. I also liked seeing Beckett.. I did like the episode with Nicole DeBoer (ok I have thing for gals with dark hair and blue eyes)...

It was a good show. It had potential to overtake Sg1, but it didn't. We shall see how the new Stargate show is.

As for Sancutary, I'm sorry Amanda I love ya, you where awesome as Sam, but the show sucks.. You are killing the English accent..

As I had only watched one episode of The Star Trek Chick Captain Lost In Space Show, I had no idea Woosley was the hologram doctor guy. I really despised his character on SG-1, but he seemed to humor up a little the last few years. I’ve missed half of this year’s final season, but will catch up later.

Serenity was on last night, but my girlfriend was over and I could only switch back and forth every now and then. I wish Joss Whedon would write another sci-fi show.

I’m a couple weeks behind on Sanctuary, and I don’t feel a pressing need to watch them. I’m still watching the reruns of SG-1. I think I’ve seen them all now.

What do others think of FRINGE? I’m loving it.

SG1 & Atlantis are/were very good shows in their own rights. I guess Atlantis is running out of steam. Sad, I rather liked Atlantis a lot in the first couple of seasons.

I did like the CSI style ep. that ran last week. It was different.

Only a couple of more weeks until the next season of Battlestar Galactica!! I can’t wait to see where they take the show from where they left off last season.

Speaking of Sci-fi, I watched The Invasion of the Body Snatchers on TV last night. For the first time I understood what's wrong with California.

Agree about Sanctuary... I even took it off my DVR. Stinkaroo.

Oh well, I guess all shows can’t be a winner.

I’m really going to miss SG Atlantis

I didn’t like it for the first season but it has grown on me. It started turning around for me about the time they added Ronin. Basically the less Teela the better.

Sanctuary officially sucks. Most of network SciFi is just X-Files rehashed without the humor that made that show good (while it was good). Now all we have left is Battlestar and reruns.

I barely remember it on Toonami, but I have to say if it had looked like that I would loved it way more (maybe not as much as Sailor Moon)
Wow... I can’t even Id all the movies they used with that... That was amazing though for how they put all those show together :D.

I kind of thought Sanctuary was the old Special Unit 2 series without the humor and fun.
