The Stargate is the best TV show ever.
I have every single season of both SG-1 and Atlantis.
Well, I'm waiting for Atlantis season 5 to come out in DVD.

I also own both movies, Continuun and The Ark of Truth.

Maybe Stargate TV is what passes for good in the third world, but in the civilized world, we have higher standards.
I don't know about this show "The Stargate" that you and Siege are bickering over, but the original Stargate SG-1 on Showtime was quite good Sf, for what it was (an action-adventure series that didn't take itself seriously).  I never watched the follow-on series nor even the last four years of the original, as it passed out of my ken, but I would much rather watch any 12 hours of SG-1 than all of the Star Wars movies put together.
Why do you hate America?
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Sounds like a nice show :)
Hopefully, it won't get cancelled after 13 episodes.

Hopefully they have a structured story arc which finishes when the story is complete. Immediately followed by the writers and producers getting Hugo Awards galore and they immediately move on to make quality sci-fi or television somewhere else.


That's imposible.

Well he is a Jew.  You'd think at least that part would catch on.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

You know what annoyed me the most about that show, how they managed to keep it secret from the public. There's just no way with so many people involved that the truth wouldn't get out.
Yeah, right.  Just like the Manhatten Project couldn't be kept a secret - because there were so many people involved.

Of all the things in the show, why pick that to bother you?  Besides which, the show dealt constantly with the difficulty of secrecy, and eventually the project was made public.

How many people were involved in the Apollo project?

And the truth have never got out.

iirc, it was made public only to the other big four of the UNSC. And maybe later to more nations. But the general public didn't know about it

Yeah, Mythbusters convincingly refuted many of the moonlanding hoax myths.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
