Well, it’s going to be as standalone as a series with “Stargate” in the title can be. A few character crossovers won’t necessarily turn the show into a sequel.

Plus, who doesn’t love Shanks?

Meh, the way I see it this is either AMAZINGLY great news or TERRIBLY bad news.
If the show is good this will only make it better and it will be great to see Danial again, if he is written in properly that is.
If the show is bad this could make it worse, showing the fans what they lost, if it’s done badly it could seem like a cheesy cop-out to get more SG1 fans to watch the show.
I can see it going either way, so all in all my opinion averages out at ‘meh’.

…again?

I think he is going to the ancient communication divice and just pop in to save the day,with unbeatable wisdom lol haha

Good for him, I guess. But didn’t TPTB intone again and again, how this show is a standalone series and not another sequel, prequel, -quel of any kind? Ah, they meant standalone with SG-1 stars guest starring during sweeps. Got it.
Bringing out this old chestnut again? Actually, what they ‘intoned’ was that the series regulars would be new characters, that it would have a different location, and a different tone. That seems to be entirely true. They also said that it would share the previously established Stargate mythology and history. That means that everyone who was part of the SGC before still is. Everyone who was knowledgable and important still is. We also know there will be contact between the SGC and the ship. It would be very odd if they didn’t bring in established experts to consult with the people on the Destiny. It’s still part of the Stagate ‘verse. If you want something that isn’t, this probably isn’t the show for you.

I doubt he will be featured because of the Long-range Communication Device. Instead, I believe he will be featured in a different way…

Oh, there we go. Nobycane saved me from explaining. I just saw the post. That’s exactly what I believe. ;)

- ok, so apparantly this episode deals w/ a flashback to when Robert Calyle’s character first joined the Stargate program. my speculation is this is where we would see a lot of interaction between Dr.Rush and Dr.Jackson. Could make for some brilliant scenes!

Lordliverspots, you are entitled to your opinion.

@amconway.. bah what’s the use, I had many choice things to throw your way.. but that would be a waste of time.

Lemmings we are.. by Showing us the proverbial carrots, even one like O’Neill in his death bed (for added effects), these yahoos expect us forget their contempt for us fans, and worship at the alter of any flaming bag-o-crap that may get branded “Stargate”. But, I insist, I am not bitter.. :)

I guess no Stargate show can survive without the beloved SG1 characters. So much for being stranded away from all other human contact. Lets bring in convenient magical devices and anything is now possible, or you can just body swap.
