Nah, Stargate has aliens who we're told are smarter than us. What the show actually depicts, sometimes, is another matter

I just saw the final episode of Stargate, and while it was not by any means a bad episode, it could have been better.

I'm kinda sad to see the show go, after all, I've been watching the show for half my life! Good thing there's a couple straight-to-DVD movies coming out

I'm interested to see how things go in Atlantis. I know we now gained all the Asgard knowledge so we can probably crush the wraith (We only just finished season 2) but I know there are Replicators in Atlantis and even the Asgard couldn't finish them with all their knowledge so that makes the Replicators the main enemy from now on.

Rather ridiculous. Rather like finding a theoretical caveman and giving him a computer is my first impression.

Well they gave us the tech specs. Perhaps it'll take us decades to work it out.

...Centuries, more like.

But then, earthlings in Stargate are simply amazing at figuring out technology, while everyone else is clueless.

Yeah like the ancients couldn't defeat the Wraith, so by the end of season 2 humans have devised a method to turn the wraith back into humans

The show is ok. I would like it better if they hadn't fall into the uber tech we are so smart trap.

Stargate seems to have fallen into the trek category. It isn't bad, but it's part of that generation of scifi.

I'd have to disagree with the "not bad" thing. The constant deus ex machina and ever-escalating scale of ultimate bad guys drove the show into the ground. And it started off so well in the early seasons... sigh. Bloody Sci Fi Channel.
