    So, the story goes, I love Stargate and wanted to talk about it online, went lookin in the Teevee section and couldnt find a subforum for Stargate. Utterly shocked and dismayed at this I *almost* posted the following in Forum requests:
    I literally *cannot* believe there isnt one already. I checked the Television section and didnt come across one.

    I suggest a SG1/Atlantis forum for all things Stargate related. The latest series has been really really cool and I look forward to it every week. I'm sure other people feel the same.

    There are already a few forums out there, but mostly they are run by Sony/Some other huge brand name, and they seem a bit corporate and unfreindly, so why not create a cool boards.ie one?!

    Then I thought to myself, surely... SURELY there is one, check again, and there it was, in Sci Fi... ffs!!

    Anyway, delighted there is a forum here, and that its not a crappy american run one. \o/

    Welcome to the forum in that case! It's been going a while and I was keen to get in on it when it was announced. It's not the busiest, but we've a core group of contributors here so should at least get something out of it..

    Is there any way that the forum could appear under both sci-fi and television? I'd imagine a fair few people would find it hard to find.

    Kinda seems pointless now with SG1 cancelled... though I suppose there is Atlantis and there *could* be movies in future, I had heard there was.

    Well Star Trek has a forum and the last episodes it had were over 2 years ago.

    I haven't watched season 1 or 2 of atlantis yet.
    Will Sky show these episodes again, before season 3 premiers on sky like what they are doing with stargate sg1.

    The LOTR forum was based on the best books ever written, not the films. :)

    Good point, I don't think I've ever seen a repeat episode of SGA on any of the three Sky channels. Very strange considering they always run every show they get into the ground.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,905 ✭✭✭User45701


    There is not enough time thers 40 episodes of SGA and it will be less than 40 weekdays before sky show the new season

    They could do a simpsons on it and show upwards of 4 episodes a day...

    They did repeat the first 8 or 9 episodes of Season 1 of atlantis. They were shown on a Wednesday evening at 8.00 p.m. up until mid-may of this year. Then for no reason, that I know of anyway, they just stopped showing it.
