What You Leave Behind. If you lived on a near-derelict space ship millions light years from home, with no way of ever going back, would you dream of another life? What if you discovered that that life was real?
“Epilogue” picks up right where last week’s episode left off, airing tonight at 9 p.m. (8 Central) on Syfy. With a ship full of refugees — the crew’s own descendants, thanks to an alternate timeline where they travelled 2,000 years into the past and established a colony — Destiny arrives at the planet Novus, only to find that their passengers’ homeworld has been decimated by seismic activity.

Well, Atleast i hope they have time to head to the nearest supermarket in the city, and possibly get some new clothes, hahahah.
The show is getting soooooo good now. It’s a shame that apathy for anything different to what came before killed it.
Such a shame that this show only has 3 episode’s left. I could have seen this going on 5 years or more. Still we have 3 episode left, lets make them count. One day Stargate will be back and and Col Jack O’Neill once said “it will be a good day”
Happy narrator: “only 3 episodes left!”
that’s a slap in the face right there… even more because it seems these 3 will be some of the best SG episodes from the past 15 years..
I have to say, tonight was one of the best episodes in this series. If the rest of the shows had been more like this, it may have lasted another few seasons.
Literally by far one of the best episodes in the franchise!!! I’m gonna rewatch this episode again because it was so good. Is there still a slight chance that MGM will reconsider their decision? If MGM just watched this episode their probably slapping themselves in the face now. I can’t stand to think that were gonna be left in a big cliffhanger, especially when the series is at it’s best.
There is no chance, SGU is dead.
what an emotional episode yet inspirational ..
Such an amzing series!
Another great EP, reminded me of “A Hundred Days” from SG:1
BBC America should pick up SG:U, they have more sci-fi than SyFy lol.. BBC 2 in the UK used to be full of sci-fi, always used to watch it from 6PM
If the beginning of the season would have been like the last 3 episodes the show wouldn’t have been cancelled. I have said it since the beginning, them clogged up on that ship was killing the show. Fans wanna see exploration onto other worlds…
One thing I won’t miss is David Blue is his screechy voice saying “You had control of this ship the whole time!” at the top of every episode!
Funny Thomas, I was thinking that last night.
Great episode, two to go… Then time to cancel my cable again.
There were some seriously funny scenes in this one… The muzak in the elevator, Eli and Corporal barnes (didn’t see that one coming), Brody with the moustache complaining about the kids on his lawn.
What a shame…
Knowing that they were getting cancelled, they should have changed the airing sequence and had this be the last episode. It is the ending of the show that the show will now never have.
It’s unfortunately a reminder that SGU could have been good.
Why couldn’t they have started out like this, these have been classic Stargate episodes. My personal best of the series, this one. Can’t believe its gonna be all over in a couple of weeks.
haha ThomasG, agree with you on that one.
@michael AGREED
what’s the significance of the elevator music? Is it a reference to something?
I gotta say this. This episode was very touching. If SGU ended with this episode I would have felt content. But…… Being SyFy frakked that up…. We will have to deal with a cliff hanger….. oi vey
@mythos: No. It’s a reminder that SGU *IS* good. That’s even if you aren’t capable of recognizing it. This episode was true artistry, unlike the ash gray flavorless void that was Atlantis.
@Tenth Doctor Yeah I know, but what their saying on facebook seems like there might be a 1 in a million possibility. Someone said that a show called Primeval was canned and they brought it back after a year. Syfy will also lose millions of viewers from cancelling all their scifi shows and hundreds of people are spamming their sites/pages telling them that. Millions of dollars will be lost, so hopefully syfy is smart enough to see that @Gaeth really dude? Your going to bash Atlantis? All 3 shows are very good just leave it at that. If you must… Read more »
Great episode.
Too bad their planet’s name wasn’t Kobol and their civilization wasn’t destroyed by Cylons. That would have been funny, heh.
One of my favorites. The only thing I would have changed would have been for the muzak in the elevator to be the SG-1 theme…would have reminded me a little of Chimera.
I’m puzzled over their reaction to the muzak. Was it because they didn’t expect to hear it or because they recognized it?
@Gaeth – No, it’s a reminder that SGU could have been good. First, SGU is cancelled so it’s potential to be anything now has been cut off. Also, the show started out badly. Really badly. It was like watching water evaporate. This episode was an example of what SGU could have been but largely failed to be (when considering it’s whole run up to this point). Granted, it has gotten much, much better. But it was cut off before it could become good. @puddlejumper_1 – Unfortunately, whereas Primeval was mostly b-grade or lower actors and writers, SGU had some bigger… Read more »
