I know, too bad MGM are way to greedy to give the rights to somebody else. So far, the cancellation of this show is one of the only things I in my life that I haven't moved over. A part of me was left empty, and this should prove how much it meant to me. If I ever had to choose a single movie/tv series continuation to see, I'd revive SGU with 3 more seasons, as it was originally planned,
perhaps a fan project like Axanar, especially if MGM isn't going to do shit about it. because i too would like the story in the background told, i wan't to know more to the alteran and their history and their journey within the vast star system they built. i know the show explains that the shit was automated, but i don't think it was always automated because this was their first built gate system and the destiny comes with built in facilities that would suggest that the ship wasn't always automated. i want to know of the ancient alteran, and what life was like during this era within their progression of their lives. before they left the ship to be automated and left to seed the milky way with a new gate system.
+Toko Andromeda Actually a soundtrack is exactly what SGU DOES have- what it doesn't have is an official full length theme song... Thank goodness- what a waste of time!
To repeat what most people have already said, losing SGU left a hole in me. I am 42, saw the OG Kurt Russel stargate in my prime, saw SG1, SGA as they aired. I actually didn't catch SGU until it was already on season 2. I did not like it at first, found it confusing. But since then I have watched both seasons back to back at least 4 times now. Its beautiful. ANd I love how this track is called Light. It's so dark, yet but carries the hope that every member on Destiny would feel each time they avoided the Dark on that most epic journey. RIP Destiny.
Had to watch the show again. It was my fourth time. And every time after the last episode I feel the same frustration and angriness. SyFy should have offer us at least two part finale, a short season 3. Maybe they can't see and think this how the audience see and think. SGU was more than just a tv show with a bunch of actors. It was a relaxing escape way from the reality.
From all of the SG universum SGU by far was the best one. I'd love to see all those plot lines combine. Maybe Destiny could reach earth. Unfortunatly one of actors is dead. RIP Don S. Davis.
Well mate, you just said something very true. I love stargate. SG-1 at first was about discovery and adventure, later a whole new Universe was born with the Asgards and Ancients. A very complex and very intresting universe. Than Stargate Atlantis arrived with an other unexplored galaxy and with a god damn city (anytime any anywhere someone asks me, which is the best architecural masterpiece, I respond THE Atlantis.) After we had love, hate, adventure, drama and everything the last thing that could end the series perfectly is Universe. The final goal to reach the meaning of life and everything. They started an amazing show I was totally lost in the series and they ended it. I know it is only a series, I shouldn't feel angry about it, but fucking hell. I was a god damn maniac when they ended the series.
You should check the comics that were made later, explaining the following of the season 2, and acting as a "season 3-ish". Sure it's not like the original, but with a good taste of OST like this, and the comics, it should revive the good SGU vibe for you ;)
This show is one of those things that makes me feel like I'm the only sane man living on a planet of crazy people. This show was deep, probably deeper than any other sci fi on TV at the time (it was about the origin of the universe and the meaning of life, for god's sake), it had phenomenal acting, didn't spoon-feed its audience or wrap things up in a nice bow at the end of every episode - in fact, this show embodies all the hallmarks of so-called 'quality TV drama' that is now considered to be the height of contemporary TV - yet because it _wasn't_ Stargate Atlantis people just had an automatic resentment for this show's existence and chose to ignore literally every great thing about it. I'm also sick and tired of hearing the Battlestar Galactica comparisons, too, which are just invalid. Battlestar was primarily about terrorism and war, exclusively depicting humans battling robots to make allegorical parallels with real-world situations (mainly in the middle east). Stargate Universe was about survival, depcting humans stranded in space fighting to stay alive whilst discovering the 'wonders' of the universe to explore philosophical and psychological concepts. The only thing that even comes close to similar about the two shows - and what I think people are lazily referring to when they make the accusation - is the camera/shooting style. But even _that_ isn't the same; when you really look and analyze it in depth, Universe's camera style isn't the same as Battlestar's. Universe takes a completely documentary-style approach, literally having its actors just act out the scene in one go and having the camera crew just filming around them with handheld camera like it's a documentary. Stargate Universe's camera/shooting style is actually most similar to The Shield's than any other show - which isn't surprising, as it was The Shield's director who did the first few Universe episodes and gave it this visual style. The Shield, by the way, pre-dated Battlestar Galactica by 2 years. But it's easier and more convenient to just label it a Battlestar rip-off and deride it, because that doesn't require any real critical evaluation and/or brains.
They also kept bringing sg1 back with it's little short films. They made the SG "story world" so unbearably cheesy and dumb. They really overdid it. I personally feel that is what killed everyone's interest in the Star Gate. I was utterly crushed when they ended SGU. I haven't enjoyed much since. It felt like my people all died.
Still my favorite show. Serious scifi, drama, action. Without it being a light hearted adventure like the first two shows. I, like many SG fans, simply grew out of SG-1 and SG-A.
i loved all their series. sure they all had their own flavor and everybody has their favored taste. but i loved them all. the flaw that sgu had in my own opinion. was the show was drawn out to long. it took forever for them to get to the good story telling.
Try listening to this and think of the fact that SGU died; if that didn't make you very sad until the point where you want to cry, then you aren't a Stargate fan at all.
@@stevescoffee8325 Nope, I understand that SGU wasn't SG1 and SGA and neither did it try to be, I am just willing to accept the show as what it tried to be - a different take on the franchise. Call me open minded, not a fake fan.
@@marius1662 Open minded by saying if we don't cry at that thought we're not fans? I've seen SGA and SGU so many many times I stopped counting, and yet I don't cry or regret it, I'm happy I can watch it still. Now call me a fake fan
I just discovered this series and am on my 3rd rewatch! This is brilliant and deserves to be continued!! I never watched the stargate series and this is my first exposure...the creators of this show would do great if the let this series continue, great, captivating storyline and music!!

Hey people, I thought Stargate SG1 was the best, then they brought out Atlantis and it took a few episodes and then got into that. Then came Universe, it was different and once again it took a couple of episodes to get into that as well. To cut a long story short, when the final episode happened I was left gutted, sad and felt like I had lost a good friend.
Right now Im working on remaking the track "In a limelight" and "Countdown to Destiny". I just finished the first one and starting my work on the latter one. The quality and the resemblence is unlike I have ever done before, I look forward to releasing these 2 tracks
This series leaves a hole in me similar to DS9. Maybe I'm giving it too much credit, but it achieved that in 2 seasons. Imagine what could have been possible in 3-5.
This show was just too surreal. Listening to this and remembering some of those epic scenes I feel like part of the crew. Still adrift.. no hope of ever returning home, and yet at peace at with journey that lies ahead. Rest in peace SGU. *sheds a tear*
for a second i thought you said this to offend. but just remembered he had passed. i to wish this series could have had at least a few more years left. and there other great composers out there that would do stargate just as much justice.
Yeah, he was gone too soon. When I think of some of the composers for a future SGU show, then I thought about Steve Jablonsky ("The Island"), Ramin Jawadi ("Westworld"), Ty Unwin (several UK documentaries about Earth and space), and John D. Boswell aka Melodysheep. Melodysheep has made awesome music videos about Earth and space, the most awesome of these being "Timelapse of the Future: A Journey to the End of Time".
Been a fan of the franchise since the original movie. Universe is my favorite series of the 3. Syfy put it out there to die. Their series had always been on the regular networks' off season, but for SGU they put it up against the regular season.
I really had a feeling inside me that the storyline in this serie had to tell us something that did happen to some real human beings. The Star Gate Universe story is very realistic in my opinion. Imagine beings that developed technology..maybe a million years beyond our time. Let's say one thousand year beyond our time... i imagine a ship like the Destiny, flying alone in space... left behind by other technologies.. i imagine a technology we shouldn't find yet... we backengeneer it.. (with some help?) .. and voila... it's real. I really believe this story told us something more than SF...
After my 9th time going through both seasons I still can never get bored of this show, and the comics that gave it an ending. Such a huge part of my life and who I am as a person, strange how a show can do that to a person, and have such effects.
SGU opened almost immediately with this sound, and right then I knew this show would be something different. This instrument is used for the leitmotiv of the ship, Destiny. I had assumed for the longest time that it was an electronic enhancement of a viola da gamba, but I recently found a commenter in a chat room who posted an excerpt from an interview where Joel Goldsmith said it was a dilruba, an Indian bowed string instrument
this show could of became something truly amazing. something that would of blown our minds but all we got was two seasons and a finish that lets down the whole stargate universe
Too bad they didn't do like in movies where people put the name of soundtracks at the end. Instead, all we get is the name of the music producers. I wish i could find more soundtracks like this
I didn't impress with this show at first because I watched Stargate franchise in order SG1-SGA-SGU in the short amount of time and I thought they were trying to mimic the edginess of Battlestar Galactica but now I think I love SGU the most. It was something different and it trying to break away from the cliche of its sister shows and they building up the way how Stargate program could be open for public in most logical sense and not just like wow uh oh the program got exposed in just 1 episode of SG1 and moving on from it like nothing happened.
I miss the show so much... just when it got really interesting, they took it all away. The soundtrack is one of the best I know and yet you can't buy it. A shame.
Always liked SGU more than SG1 and SGA. The latter two are still absolutely amazing, but SGU was somewhat more mature and instead of the protagonists against the bad guys it was more of the protagonists against the bad "guys", each other, and themselves.
It really was only a matter of time before the SG'verse demanded a show with betrayal, mutiny and back-stabbing as central parts of the plot. Being an American show demands it. And so we got SGU... sigh.
It seems the worse the Stargate series, the more seasons it gets? Universe was by FAR the best, Atlantis also good but probably for a much younger audience? Universe was EXTREMELY well written compared to Atlantis, very mature and it got better and better and better... and died.
Because the fans of the previous show thought it wasn't reflective of what the previous two shows are... But that wasn't the point of why the producers made SGU. Teh fans simply wasn't willing to grasp SGU. They abandoned and boycotted it. So SGU was then cancelled because there's not enough viewers. Now the fans asked for a new SG that reflected what the older two shows are, but MGM said, "nope, we don't think we can make SG without restarting SG all over since we can't continue the plot without SGU and you guys didn't like SGU, right?"
zaghy2zy this was around the time MGM were bankrupt and didn't have any money to fund productions. SyFy did it all by themselves for SGU and we all know SyFy love Sci-Fi right? (joke) But yeah a lot of fans didn't like SGU, myself included. We wanted our Atlantis film and we wanted more of the same shows. SyFy just weren't prepared to put up all the costs for a show that's ratings were going down. Looking back now, I actually really like Universe and it's second season was definitely better too. It's just a shame that MGM couldn't help continue the franchise. Dean Devlin plans to make another film after Independence Day 2 so there is hope yet.
rather have a hard back novel or movie then a comic reason is person drawing comic might decide he likes some thing drawn diffrent then they had it in the show say lets make Atlantis more doughnut shipped for example not saying the artis will do that
thats good but was only worried that the art might not be the same suddenly Eli Wallace is well some thing other then how he looked in the show or some other crazy art thing i cant think of........ is what i really ment thats what worrys me mostly and reason i dont tend to like comics
Thank you so much for this music. I find that I am haunted by the music of SG-U. Would it be possible for you to download some of the other episodes? I know there's a few in Season 2 (can't remember which ones) that are just as haunting as this one.
If I become filthy rich, I would bring this show back for at least one more season.
I know, too bad MGM are way to greedy to give the rights to somebody else. So far, the cancellation of this show is one of the only things I in my life that I haven't moved over. A part of me was left empty, and this should prove how much it meant to me. If I ever had to choose a single movie/tv series continuation to see, I'd revive SGU with 3 more seasons, as it was originally planned,
MGM aren't greedy, but I suspect, that there might be another party that co-owns the rights.
Or you could fund a real life "Stargate" like program :) Give the guys at Area 51 something to think about haha.
perhaps a fan project like Axanar, especially if MGM isn't going to do shit about it.
because i too would like the story in the background told, i wan't to know more to the alteran and their history and their journey within the vast star system they built.
i know the show explains that the shit was automated, but i don't think it was always automated because this was their first built gate system and the destiny comes with built in facilities that would suggest that the ship wasn't always automated. i want to know of the ancient alteran, and what life was like during this era within their progression of their lives.
before they left the ship to be automated and left to seed the milky way with a new gate system.
The actors will be pretty old by now. You have to make a hell lot of changes in the script to make it in the current timeline.
The soundtrack put so much emotion in the show, love it.
true..and imagine.. it is' nt the sountrack. The show doesn't officially have a soundtrack! But i feel it to my friend ;)
+Toko Andromeda Actually a soundtrack is exactly what SGU DOES have- what it doesn't have is an official full length theme song... Thank goodness- what a waste of time!
I miss this show so much... it made me feel connected to the universe.
I have so much nostalgia towards that show, and i am only 17 years old, 17 year old people shouldn't have nostalgia.
Nope that is not unusual. It was a great show and you just miss it is all. I just rewatched it again a few months ago myself.
I first watched this when I was 11 and I watch both seasons at least once a year and I'm 17 now and I still love it so so much

I wish i could find more soundtracks like this
The best thing in SGU in season 1 is all about Destiny Ship. I remember seeing Destiny submerged inside the burning star and resubmerged, charged up
Guys, it's time to wake up from hibernation. You're sleeping way too long :')
FINALE CAME FROM ME TODAY,BUT WILL CONTINUE.PEACE FOREVER.
I didn't impress with this show at first because I watched Stargate franchise in order SG1-SGA-SGU in the short amount of time and I thought they were trying to mimic the edginess of Battlestar Galactica but now I think I love SGU the most. It was something different and it trying to break away from the cliche of its sister shows and they building up the way how Stargate program could be open for public in most logical sense and not just like wow uh oh the program got exposed in just 1 episode of SG1 and moving on from it like nothing happened.
sgu is the best
I'm dying to see this revived by Amazon Prime Video with the team from The Expanse ❤
The heavy use of synth always reminds me of the 90s
I miss the show so much... just when it got really interesting, they took it all away. The soundtrack is one of the best I know and yet you can't buy it. A shame.
Always liked SGU more than SG1 and SGA. The latter two are still absolutely amazing, but SGU was somewhat more mature and instead of the protagonists against the bad guys it was more of the protagonists against the bad "guys", each other, and themselves.
thank you
It really was only a matter of time before the SG'verse demanded a show with betrayal, mutiny and back-stabbing as central parts of the plot. Being an American show demands it. And so we got SGU... sigh.
Magnifico.
Nostalgia ❤️
Our world change. We grew up. We as boys put away our toys.
Does anyone know what the main bowed string instrument playing in this is called? I think it's playing an octave above a cello

It seems the worse the Stargate series, the more seasons it gets? Universe was by FAR the best, Atlantis also good but probably for a much younger audience? Universe was EXTREMELY well written compared to Atlantis, very mature and it got better and better and better... and died.
Yep, and its pretty sad we wont get a end for it.
Because the fans of the previous show thought it wasn't reflective of what the previous two shows are... But that wasn't the point of why the producers made SGU. Teh fans simply wasn't willing to grasp SGU. They abandoned and boycotted it. So SGU was then cancelled because there's not enough viewers.
Now the fans asked for a new SG that reflected what the older two shows are, but MGM said, "nope, we don't think we can make SG without restarting SG all over since we can't continue the plot without SGU and you guys didn't like SGU, right?"
bring it back
zaghy2zy this was around the time MGM were bankrupt and didn't have any money to fund productions. SyFy did it all by themselves for SGU and we all know SyFy love Sci-Fi right? (joke) But yeah a lot of fans didn't like SGU, myself included. We wanted our Atlantis film and we wanted more of the same shows. SyFy just weren't prepared to put up all the costs for a show that's ratings were going down. Looking back now, I actually really like Universe and it's second season was definitely better too. It's just a shame that MGM couldn't help continue the franchise. Dean Devlin plans to make another film after Independence Day 2 so there is hope yet.
Chewu As I have heard, he is planning of making a reboot of the original Movie.
@samramdebest I so agree with you. This show haunts me and the music adds to it.
sgu
They should have done it in his memory :(
😍 😍
i want a movie or a book to end this not some cliff hanger crap :/
There will be comics coming out soon, to finish both this and Atlantis.
rather have a hard back novel or movie then a comic reason is person drawing comic might decide he likes some thing drawn diffrent then they had it in the show say lets make Atlantis more doughnut shipped for example not saying the artis will do that
superchairbed Being made by the same guy who did the writing for the show, so it's probably going to be same story line.
thats good but was only worried that the art might not be the same suddenly Eli Wallace is well some thing other then how he looked in the show or some other crazy art thing i cant think of........ is what i really ment thats what worrys me mostly and reason i dont tend to like comics
hey guys guess what i tought off this tv show and is going on 3rd sesason
Is there still a chance for a sequel to Stargate universe ? :(
2:15 is the shit, such an awe inspiring piece of music
Kocham SGU r.i.p 😥
Thank you so much for this music. I find that I am haunted by the music of SG-U. Would it be possible for you to download some of the other episodes? I know there's a few in Season 2 (can't remember which ones) that are just as haunting as this one.
Jesus This Series of stargate Scrape the show
Who else listens to this whilst playing elite dangerous especially when entering sol
Amazon will hopefully breathe new life into the Stargate franchise.. maybe we get a cross-over ep into Destiny!
