Stargate Universe=Star Trek DS9?

[deadlockedworld]

Does anyone else think that the overall show format from Stargate Universe is remarkably similar to Star Trek DS9?

They went from an action/exploration theme in SG-1, to a small scene character study that focuses more internally on the characters than externally on the exploration.

Personally I think this is how Star Trek was killed off--DS9 just turned it into a Sci Fi soap opera instead of an exploration/action show. I really want to watch them explore new worlds... not work out their emotional issues with each other.

I didn't even know there was a new Star Trek show on TV.

I stopped watching after TNG was canceled.

hope not to flame. but star trek was never about the action. its about the DRAMA.

and your correct Universe is a soap. hell i make this claim abiout Heros once and seems the whole world flamed~!. risky to make this call.

universe seems to lack any the action sg1 or Atlantis had. i loved the series and doubt it will last as long as alantis did. I don't like the Sex scenes , need to keep that crap off TV IMHO. sure kids love it. i doubt adults care.

maybe they will gain control of the ship and become a crack-team of experts next year and shoot-em-up evil-nazi-alliens.

killing Nazi-aliens always brings in cheers. still have mixed feelings about universe, don't sure if i like it. really.

SG1 was better than either IMHO.

Got sick of catching bits and pieces off the SciFi channel so I bought the entire Stargate series on DVD.

My favorite is Stargate Atlantis 5 full seasons, however Stargate SG1 is definitely what started the whole thing for me, but I'm most partial to the first 8 seasons with Jack Oneills involvement, SG1 seasons 9 & 10 just was missing something to me.

So far Stargate Universe is like a fish out of water, flopping around on the beach gasping for air, reminds me of the Battlestar Galactica remake which some raved over, but I personally thought was a total crap disappointment! (My Opinion)

I still think that TNG was the best out of both series then probably SG1. I loved the original ST but it is very dated and DS9 had too many story lines. Voyager is ok and I never got into the newer stargate series. I might try Atlantis again. And Enterprise didn't make a whole lot of sense.
