The second live-action series to spin-off of the hit science fiction series Stargate SG-1 was green-lighted a day after the announcement that Stargate Atlantis will be canceled after its fifth season run. Stargate Universe premiered with a two-hour movie and then went immediately to its new timeslot.

Good show but not good Stargate. Does it makes sense?
I actually think it found something in the middle of the second season, having been largely disappointing until then. I think if it had another season it would have come into its own!
@wearestarrdust No. Just no.
Actually Stargate Universe was WAY better than Stargate Atlantis. Period. But of course Stargate SG1 will always be the best :)
Stargate Universe is a disgrace to the Stargate franchise. It should've been a spin-off of battlestar galactica. Stargate is about cheesy humor, mystery, discovery, history, everyhting is possible on a new planet. In stargate universe they rarely visited planets. And there wasn't that much humor, or at least not the same kind as in Stargate SG-1. I loved Stargate Sg-1 and Atlantis. I was so happy when universe was announced, but after 5 or so episodes I was deeply dissapointed. It's probably not a bad show, but it's definitely no Stargate.
it sucks, please continue
Damn... I'm at 2x14 now and I'm really sad that it got cancelled. What ACTUAL scifi show is there to watch now? I really like this show... A LOT more than SG-1 and especially the quite weak Atlantis.
Great read on why it was cancelled:

No next episode
Lets hope that they uncan the movie and give us an ending. A new season would be even better :D
Keep hope alive!
Now lets hope the show is being brought back in 3 years!
...or a thousand.
@ColeFrost Man that is bad news :(
The follow up movie got canned:

Too bad. No story resolution. Great show though.
I still think it's an awesome show!
Very deep characters (yes, it takes time so you need fillers) but since SGU is back the latest 4-5 episodes were really good!! It's a shame it goes away.
i like it.
I watched SGU until 2x06 and I didn't remotely enjoy a single episode. I suppose I thought something would change and it would start "getting good". I have no idea why I watched it so long, but I came off pissed as I realised I had wasted my time. 26hrs of truly wasted time.
There was no story, but they faked it with exceptionally slow filler. I didn't like any of the characters- I think I found them unrealistic.
I'm sure I come off strong, but this show truly did nothing for me.
I actually quite liked SGA, prefered it to the second half of SG1 and deff prefered it to SGU ..
@PaquitoLee I wouldnt call it the best of the three but definitely better than Stargate Atlantis.
@Jonas yeah and the first episode isn't too shabby
New episodes. FINALLY!
