Musings On SG-1 and Atlantis.

So, recently I'm under the impression that there are quite some few people who complain about the characters in the Stargate universe, or the way things are going, how characters develop - or not - and frankly, I can't understand that.

To me, both SG shows are fun shows. I watch them for *gasp* entertainment. I've never expected to see great, new, mind blowing shows, pushing the limits of television. I've never expected to see broken characters that are constantly fretting over their lives. I've never expected to see story arcs that make you question religion, politics, or your own existence.

There's other shows for that, which I also watch happily.

But Stargate's become my "relax television". My fun shows. Give me an entertaining plot, a little snark between the characters and I'm happy. I never thought season two of SG:A was worse than season one. I don't think season three is even worse than that.

They're just... oh, I dunno,...fun?

I don't expect much but it's just... not even fun anymore? Season 1 was fun. S2 was boring most of the time. It's just on endless repetition, that's what bugs me.

But I'm not complaining about characterdevelopment *g* They keep me watching the show *lol*

Oh, I wasn't directly pointing at you or something, it was just a general observation. And I thought season 2 was fun... :-) Some of the best episodes were in season two :-)
