Here’s your preview of “The Greater Good!” As usual, beware of some spoilers …
From Syfy:
Destiny comes upon a heavily damaged ship floating in space. Dr. Rush suggests that the alien vessel be explored in the hopes of salvaging any worthwhile data or technology. Without a shuttle, Rush and Col. Young must make a dangerous space-suited expedition to the derelict ship. Once safely aboard, they discover that the ship contains empty pods similar to those they encountered on the seed ship.
As Dr. Rush gets the life support and power running, the ship’s engines suddenly engage, propelling it away from Destiny. With the power now depleted the ships drift helplessly apart.
From Sky1:
The Destiny is left stranded in space after an encounter with a damaged ship. While Young goes into panic mode, Rush refuses to divulge a valuable secret.

I dont want this show to end its sooo good :D Hopefully the ratings will pick up this ep it seems really good!!!
Yes it would be such a shame if it ended.I think the last two eps were amazing and from what I've read about this evening's one..this is it folks,that's what we all have been waiting for!It was worth a wait and for those who've stuck with the show and waited,it's been more than worthed,I'd say!We're getting a huge pay off!That plus the slower character development and their interactions and the story build up,have only made us more invested,involved with it,which now makes the viewing experience that much more exciting!!
At least that's what I think and how I feel!
I only hope the ratings improve too,so that this doesn't end up being the last season,because whether you like it more,or less..this is Stargate and we at least have a stargate show on the air.It would be very sad if there was no more Stargate,after all the legacy the franchise has left thus far.
Also Brad Wright had said that this show has so much potential to last and be on the air for a long long time..that was showrunners initial plan in the first place.And I absolutely agree with the potencial of the show as well as I think it will get only better and better as we go..and it would have become only better if they cancel it!At least if it gets canceled,which is a distinct possibility at this point due to it's poor ratings not accounting for it's huge budget and expenses,I hope it gets a decent ending of a very interesting story.
I only hope it stays on the air and fulfills all of it's potential,although in order for that to happen,a pretty dramatic pick up in it's ratings would be required!
Well what most people don't understand is they have to figure out how the ship works and lay down the ground rules of the Destiny and such. People act like it should be action all the time from the beginning. I personally like how they are slowly figuring stuff out. It's more enjoyable. People act like they wanted them to figure stuff out the first episode. Hey we're on a million year old ancient space ship and we've figured out how to control it and work it in one day unrealistic. It's a more realistic show and it has human characters trying to cope with their situations. It's not like anything is just dropped in their laps. thier is no cure all fix all. It's fantastic and I hope the ratings pick up so they do do another season.
Some fans on Twitter are working to get SGU to trend on Twitter tonight, it's all being run out of the @SGUawareness account
@syfygyrl Yeah exactly!Remember after season 8 of SG-1,Whan O'Neill had left,people were like complaining about that and about someone else taking his place and how come Sam wasn't the new SG-1 team leader,but I was just happy that Stargate SG-1 was still on the air,plus those last two seasons turned out to be quite amazing if you ask me!It was diferrent,the show had changed quite a bit..there was a new vibe,a completely new story,a new kick ass bad guys and new main characters.Yet it was still stargate havily connected to mythology,still fun and humourous and advantureous,exciting..Ben Browder and Claudia Black of Farscape were exellent,feature star B.Bridges was awesome as well and I basically still loved it!
What you said is something I personally also don't understand..quite a lot people still making their complaints based on what they've seen not only in season one,but in the first few eps of season one..like they havent watched aynthing that came after that.Yet thay still make an effort to come on here and complain about something,some of them clearly say have stoped watching long time ago!
That's just absurd.
I hope the ratings go up! Season 1 wasn't that good until the very end but season 2 has really taken off & it's a shame that people would miss out because they're still thinking what they saw in season 1.
This is going to be great! Go, go SGU!
Hey everybody (new on the site) I'm from The Netherlands and love SGU but i cant see it because i dont have SyFy and SGU in not yet on TV here.
sorry i cant support the ratings.
Ow... and i will buy SGU ofcourse... on blu-ray.
THE MISSION! THE MISSION!
ohhh my have I been waiting for this! Season 2 has been fantastic!
I've been looking forward to this episode. Hopefully the true mission of the Destiny will turn out to be something profound.
