In any case, I'm looking for the opinions of Stargate fans, and what they would have done differently with the series.

Universe was extremely underrated. It got crapped on because of the slow pace and the very dark theme it had. It was by far however, one of the best Stargate shows done.
It's too bad it was cancelled.
And where did the Destiny people go? And why did some ascend and others not? There are so many questions raised with the Alterans that it's hard to have a simple understanding.

I can't remember it even being in theatres

Weir was annoying as hell

There was a video game in the works at one point in time. It was an FPS MMO. You would have free reign to explore other worlds, fight enemies, and pretty much live in the Stargate world.
The game was also supposed to coincide with the TV shows since SG1 and SGA were on air at the same time. Some of the things happening in the shows were supposed to happen in-game as well.
I was in the early beta of that game and it wasn't too bad, but pretty buggy. They cancelled the game not too long after. I can't remember why as it's been a few years.
There are, however, Stargate mods currently out for other games.

Although Dr. Weir could be a little too patronizing at times, she did her job and she did it well.
Supposedly Destiny was launched long before the Ancients ascended and they were going to use the onboard stargate to get aboard when they were ready. That info comes from the season 3 scripts I downloaded and which explained everything. It even wrapped the story up so season 3 would have been the final anyway. Really bummed it never got filmed.
I have no dhd and I'm stuck, alone, on a desolate planet with only ice to sit on and 1 channel to look at.. and that channel has nothing but sports on it, 36 hours a day...
Oooh especially the episode when Daniel was revived in a sarcophagus too many times, didn't need his glasses, and kept the rest of the team in the slave mines promising them to be released soon...

I too loved some episodes like that. Another one of my favourites was the ones where the Ancient database got downloaded into Jack's brain. Or, Merlin's consciousness into Daniel's brain.
Or even Rodney, (The Tao of Rodney), and even if they didn't, maybe just have some more focus on Ascension overall. I'm sure if something like that was discovered in real life they would dedicate a team to its understanding.
Two of my favorite episodes!! Jack always cracked me up. I love when he finally gets something complicated and gets all excited and Carter is not even phased. I laughed so hard. He was so proud yet she didn't seem impressed. I loved her character too. It was nice to have a smart ass kicking chick in a show.
Ahhh Rodney. I couldn't stand him at first but then he grew on me and I had a crush. He became one of my favs on Atlantis.
