“SGU is about survival, more than anything else,” actor Robert Carlyle said in the video. Carlyle plays Nicholas Rush, a scientist charged with the task of unlocking the Stargate’s unused ninth chevron — then finding a way back when the team is stranded on the Ancient ship Destiny.
“These are real stories, and real people with real concerns,” Lou Diamond Phillips (“Colonel Telford”) said.
The teaser also features longer looks at scenes from episodes such as “Air,” the 3-part series premiere — such as a discussion between Telford and Camille Wray (Ming-Na), a kiss for Tamara Johansen (Alaina Huffman), and a desert planet that the team visits (recently filmed at White Sands, New Mexico).
“It’s going to have a different look,” actor Brian J. Smith said. Smith’s character is Lt. Matthew Scott, a military greenhorn who must rise to the occasion as a leader of the deep-space castaways. “It’s going to have a different feel. It’s going to be written a different way.”
The teaser also features brief comments from Ming-Na (“Wray”) and actress Elyse Levesque (“Chloe Armstrong”), who talk about the show’s emphasis on its characters — telling stories of human will, hope and faith.

Actually, I believe some of these scenes are from earth.
Like in one scene you see louis on earth and you see the back of Carlo rota's head. And was it Matthew who got lucky and had Tamara kiss him.
Awesome promo-clip. And Ming-Na is still adorable. Love her since she did voice-acting work for Aki Ross in "Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within". What a cutie. ^_^
That was a fantastic viewing experience...and this is just another promo!!! My excitement for this series continues to build and build and build with the more I see and read and hear!!!
Suffice it to say that I cannot wait for Stargate: Universe to get its première in October!!! Bring it on!!!
I just saw this for the second time on Sci Fi tonight around 10:40. This teaser only brings my hopes up more. Can optimism go any further? :P
At first I was excited about SGU. I was also excited that Stargate was going to contuninue....but this kinda made me re-think this....
Not to be mean....but from that little clip it makes me feel this is Battlestar Stargate. It had the same feel of that show...
Don't get me wrong, I love that there is at least something Stargate to let me chew on...but I'm not sure if this is gonna be for me.....But I'll keep an open mind till I watch the show.
Not feeling the love yet. Just doesn't have the feeling of the Stargate shows that I have come to love. But perhaps the show will be better than these promos have been. I'm just not really in the mood for heavy angst. I can watch CNN if I want that.
This is exciting!
Wow...
I very much dislike the fact that they repeat over and over again that this will be Stargate but not STARGATE, like the two previous series were flops and they want to distance themselves from bad products starting a completely new brand from scratch. If THAT should make me, a long time SG lover, watch, they are completely off the mark!
Sexier, grittier, please no!
I don't want it to be not stargate, I want it to be more of the same, that formula was working, do change the show for the sake of the franchise.
