Stargate Universe: Lost, Sabotage, and Pain

By | May 27, 2010

These three episodes are more or less… silly.  The show’s plot is coming apart at the seams.  “Lost” is of course a continuation of “Human”, but we’re never actually worried that they’ll be lost forever.  Their solution to get back to the ship, which they did in “Sabotage”, was rather obvious to anyone familiar with how Stargate networks function.  “Pain” feels very out of place and disconnected from the rest of the plot.

I’m sure I just missed some offhand comment that would satisfy me, but one question keeps plaguing me as I watch this show.  Back at the beginning, they were trying to dial Earth, but they couldn’t because the ship didn’t have enough power.  But since the ship replenished its power to full capacity (more or less), they have not tried even a single time to dial Earth and see if they can get back home.  Why not?

At any rate, the show is going downhill rather quickly.  I don’t see how they can keep the series going.
