    The second season is an improvement but it could not save the show. Actually I gave up after watching season 1 but did view season 2 out of curiosity and noticed the improvement. My main point of season 1 was that while the premise and ideas were rally good the characters and episodes were not remarkable aka mediocre. Here they have better stories that made me to want to see more and theThe second season is an improvement but it could not save the show. Actually I gave up after watching season 1 but did view season 2 out of curiosity and noticed the improvement. My main point of season 1 was that while the premise and ideas were rally good the characters and episodes were not remarkable aka mediocre. Here they have better stories that made me to want to see more and the characters work much better. The premise of the show is solving the 9th chevron riddle. The Stargates operate by using chevrons. With 7 you can travel inside the galaxy to another Stargate and an 8th chevron is used for a Stargate in another galaxy (Much more energy consumption!). What the 9th does is unclear as the Ancients (Stargate builders / Precursor race with technology that was incredibly advanced) information is not understood. Dr. Rush the leading scientist creates a puzzle based on Ancients algorithms in a multiplayer RPG videogame to find young brilliant minds for the project. They solved this but are stranded on the ancient Ancient spaceship Destiny. The precursor race of the Ancient discovered some strange patterns in the young universe that cant be explained naturally and sent the Destiny to investigate. Our protagonist stranded on the ship that is so far away that returning home or even sending the fastest ship to rescue them does not work. Season 2 continues the struggles for survival as other Galaxies are dangerous and the Destiny caught attention to just name a few problems. Like I said this season is better and from here on I would like to follow the characters and stories. Sadly it was too late and the show was canceled. Overall this was an improvement and for me good enough to watch. I freely admit that it still was weaker than Stargate and Stargate Atlantis but not garbage.… Expand

    In its final season, this is one space opera that deserves to be put out of its misery. [11 Mar 2011, p.70]
