Those were my thoughts back then as well. For the first season, I thought it was very mediocre, and I pretty only much watched it because I’m a big Stargate fan. During the second season, I became more and more invested and thought it could become amazing. Then it got canceled :/

Strongly agree. I was shaking my head at the first season but by the end of the second I was upset it was over.

You can actually feel the shift when they go and write out some of the stupider dangling plot threads from the first season.
The people left behind on the monolith planet that whats-her-name visits in her dreams to see her dead baby? Actually a computer program designed to manipulate dreams for monitoring and maintaining mental health and all those people on that planet actually died horribly.
It is true that SGU took too long but I think that it was cancelled right when it was getting it all together. Second season was way better than the first. Overall, I prefer SGU over SGA.
> Here’s hoping if Amazon/MGM do revive it they go for more of the original flavour, if not necessarily any of the original cast.
MGM attempted this with SGO[1] but it failed rather misearably.
