That or he does something to outcast himself? He could lose his rag at some point and beat the crap out of her, geek-boy coming to the rescue, and hey presto, the balance is restored!

That is possible, but I just cant see them taking his character that way, he is the only mentally stable officer on the thing. His commander is half dead and one of his subordinates is a psychopath.

I just feel the writers are slowly pushing themself into a corner trying to write stuff to be too edgy and then completely missing the obvious basic plot lines.

Stable? He decided to walk off into a desert, and then hallucinated about a drunkard priest from dehydration

Each week I decide I CBA to watch it, and then end up watching it when it comes on >< I still prefer Warehouse 13. It may be kiddy-ish, but its fun and entertaining. The only thing I didnt like is how it seems between episode 1 and 2 the two main characters went from hating each other to (not so) secretly loving each other.

the showkinda feels like its been a pitch that has had the Stargate brand tacked on by an exec to sell it to an existing fan base, it doents have any of the SG traits, while its not terrible it feels a bit like enterprise did compared to normal star trek.

I liked it, even though it was a bit predictable. Guy falls in crevasse and gets saved at the very last minute...

Hopefully that senators daughter dies though, shes just a terrible character played by an even worse actor.

Also, Robert Carlyle has more acting talent in his left pinky finger than the rest of the cast combined.

Indeed, seems to me like theyre hoping he will drag them all up to his standard.

The problem is, he is having to overact a bit to try and get them going. He doesnt really have anyone to play off when acting, the closest he has got is the young lad who isnt excessively bad. But yes, some of the others are appauling.

Was going to say, with all the negative opinions, at what point do you abandon all hope and stop watching?

Me and a mate were talking about it and end of the day we are only really watching it because there isnt much else when it comes to space sci-fi at the moment

Perhaps you should stop taking the series so seriously which is the biggest mistake you make in Sci-Fi and just enjoy it as it is meant as enternainment.

Carlyle is in no doubt a strong actor and I can see why they needed someone like him for such complex mysterious role. Carlyle has the ability as the producers put it, to make dislikeable things likeable.

I dont think the other actors are bad by any means, but they are a relatively fresh cast of unkown actors and it takes time for things to gel. It can quite easily look like Carlyle is carrying them when the role is complex. Greare seemed to be very straight forward at first glance but there seems to be more to all of them as we get to know them.

Im starting to think that a cardboard cutout of Robert Carlyle would have more acting talent in its left pinky than the rest of the cast combined...

Actually that might be the problem, he shines so brightly that the rest of them hardly get a chance to be noticed.

There is no excuse for badly thought out scripts. Sci-fi has science attached to the begining and should be rock solid, even when dealing with fantasy issues.

I do enjoy programmes as entertainment, but there should be more.

OH GOD OH GOD WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE AND YOU ARE ALREADY f**kING THE GOOD LOOKING MILITARY GUY!!!!

Oh wait we are in the star, its pretty and we are still alive... and you are still f**king the military guy. Lose lose for the math geek!

Alternatives, the ship could have been fitted with a Bussard ram scoop or just went into the oort cloud and grabbed a few protocomets. Of course that wouldnt have been as exciting.

Then again you know they are going to be back next episode so you already know that theyll survive. There arent that many of them either so they cant afford to lose more than one or two people an episode.
