I'd be happy take it over to your LJ cause....um....I can be rather verbose - no need to subject Light to our SGU gushing (gracious offer not withstanding) :D
I'd never gotten into SG1 or SGA (despite many fan-friends who were really into them). I'm an arc-is-all person - gimme Farscape, BSG, Babylon 5 & DS9, yk? But after falling in love with SGU, we've (my sweetie is almost as big of a scifi geek as I am :P) gone back and watched SG1 and really enjoyed it for what it is. We've watched the "arc-only" episodes and that's kept us from getting frustrated by the large number of stand alones. (they did do a good job of touching on the arc within almost every ep though)
