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.

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. Go to Full Review Scotsman Staff Scotsman 05/19/2018
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. Go to Full Review Rob Keyes Screen Rant 05/19/2018
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... Go to Full Review Charles Webb MTV 04/17/2018
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. Go to Full Review Meredith Woerner io9.com 04/17/2018
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. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jonny F @RT25859128 09/04/2023 Less camp and more serious than SG1, some times grown up story lines. Stargate Universe is gripping and fasinating overall, with lots of character focus. The ending is very sad, but if anyone can resolve that situation it's..... The best music by the SG composer, RIP. A jewl in the star gate crown. No more seasons of the show, but a couple of graphic novels continue the story. See more Tina K @tinaksf 04/20/2023 One of the best sci-fi series around! See more Zul T @RT22121577 09/13/2022 It goes nowhere and the villains in this series are so painfully uninteresting. See more 12/19/2021 Better than Season 1, but still a disappointment. See more Felix R @FSR2003 11/28/2021 Wonderful series, too bad it didn't run longer. It deserved no less than 7 seasons. Lots of storyline potential. See more 10/16/2021 10 years later and SGU remains the best Sci fi show, In terms of character driven narrative, big underlying science ideas, and thoughtful plots with great characters and actors. Plus outstanding music score.. Rewatching this as Apples Foundation is showing. SGU is so much more enjoyable and thoughtful. Shame it only had 2 seasons. See more Read all reviews
