Started watching it on Pluto and only in the first season but I’m liking it. I’ve seen random episodes here and there and my dad rented the movie once it was available at blockbuster. Plus it’s cool to see a show with Air Force members as an Air Force vet. I assume since it ended before the woke era there aren’t any major girlboss moments.

IIRC there are maybe 2 or 3 episodes with "muh sexism/racism" but considering that the series ran for 10 seasons that's pretty minor. It's still probably my favorite series ever.
Season 1 was a bit slow IMHO. It felt fairly low budget and there was too much character introduction and not enough action when I rewatched it. Although that's maybe not an issue if you're watching it for the first time.
The later SG Atlantis felt slightly woker with that weird mystical girlboss but other than her it's still great.
SG Universe ... well, we don't talk about SG Universe.
I’ve heard a lot of people don’t like SGU. What did they do wrong? Totally change the lore?
Not the commenter you posted at, but I just have to reply ;)
They changed the lore, the format, the focus, the acting..
It’s a product of its time. mostly aping the directing style of the Battlestar Galactica reboot with the ongoing mystery of Lost and musical cues matching every drama at the time, which is fitting because of all the romance shit thrown in. At best it’s jarring compared to SG1 and Atlantis. At worst it’s painfully derivative. Still. The character of Dr. rush can be fun to watch (I’d describe him as ruthlessly pragmatic) and there’s a soldier with nice breasts.
Oh, thanks for the heads up
