Fan rumblings

My Adobe Photoshop has stopped working, so it looks like I won't be able to make myself a spiffy Stargate icon. Grrr. So imagine that I have an icon of Daniel Jackson.

Now that I'm in season 2 of Stargate, I've seen a couple of the episodes involving the NID and Maybourne. I have a kneejerk hate for these episodes. I think I've figured out why: X-Files.

Shadow government agencies? Mysterious politicians pulling the strings? Hidden agendas? Trust no one? Yeah. I've been done that road before. It sucked. I don't want to see another show sucked into the conspiracy black hole. Please, Stargate, just keep giving me the scifi storylines I know and love. Leave the bad writing to that other show.

Eh, Stargate never really gets swallowed by the conspiracy storylines. I mean, they're there...but mostly it's about the evil aliens that want to kill us all openly.

SG-1 is way more consistent and comprehensible than the X-Files (and I say this loving the X-Files lots and merely liking SG-1).
