Answer :

It’s boring as hell—or at least, the first several episodes have been. I adore SG-1 and will soon start watching SGA again, but seriously…SGU needs to amp it up. I think part of it is that they don’t have any really likable characters (they do on SG-1 and SGA). I don’t care about them, which is either bad writing or bad acting. (The show also feels about 3 times as long as it is because it’s so boring—I’ll hold out for another few episodes, however, to see if it gets better.)
