More Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for Stargate Universe Season 2 All Critics (10) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (8) | Rotten (2) What remains are two seasons of a show whose potential seems virtually untapped. This could have been Stargate's shining moment. Apr 17, 2018 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… R.L. Shaffer IGN Movies Believe me, I studied the "previously on..." recap with intense concentration. But it was so incoherent, it was almost as if it was designed to alienate new viewers. May 18, 2018 | Full Review… Staff Scotsman The premiere of season 2 serves its purpose of maintaining the drama and intensity we've come to expect from each episode of Stargate Universe... May 18, 2018 | Full Review… Rob Keyes ScreenRant Many of the episodes--while pushing forward the week-to-week narrative--lean a little too far in the direction of standalone stories, really only moving forward one or two beats in the overall story, killing any sense of momentum. Apr 17, 2018 | Full Review… Charles Webb MTV Unfortunately, it wasn't quite the weekly light adventurism that many Stargate fans were hoping for, but it's left us with... a cliffhanger that will never be resolved, giving a slightly bittersweet ending to a compelling, spectacular and thrilling ride. May 18, 2018 | Full Review… Phelim O'Neill Guardian Top Critic Last night, we said goodbye to Stargate Universe. In a strange way, the finale was almost parallel to the manner in which this series was canned - the show ended right as it started to get good. Apr 17, 2018 | Full Review… Meredith Woerner io9.com The series still has rough spots, and I don't know that it's even bothered to differentiate some of these characters from each other...but it's doing enough things right that I'll probably keep an eye on it for a while. Apr 17, 2018 | Full Review… Todd VanDerWerff AV Club Top Critic Universe's gritty atmosphere and desperate characters gave us something new, even as it expanded on the Ancient lore established way back in the SG-1 pilot. Apr 17, 2018 | Full Review… Michael Crider ScreenRant Stargate Universe has returned, and with a bang too. Apr 17, 2018 | Full Review… Carl England Den of Geek ... the best old-school science fiction on TV during its brief odyssey in 2009-2011 but it was cancelled after struggling for viewers over two seasons.... At least it ends on a satisfying note of mystery and potential.
