Walking Dead – Best new show in years! Great overall quality, writing very good, acting pretty good, special effects (well, blood splatters!) also pretty good. Waiting until October for Season 2 – SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SGU – came on pretty strong this season. Overall pretty happy with the show. Almost surpassed Atlantis and probably will after the rest of this season.
Event – ehh…still don’t know if it’s worth watching or not. I’ll stick with it for the rest of the year and see if something actually happens.
Of the three I’m only invested in The Event. I stopped watching Walking Dead after the first episode. And SGU is on really thin ice with me. *shrug*
Loved SGU…can’t wait until it returns. Thought The Event was okay…didn’t seem as good to me as some of the previous episodes but I’ll definitely be back.
I can’t vote on Walking Dead as I haven’t seen it. It’s on the DVR but it’s not in HD so I think I will wait and rent the discs. I really don’t like watching non-HD content on my 96″ screen. Maybe I need a smaller TV for these situations.
SGU .. Very good. It is the *only* SG show that I’ve watched.
WD .. The end was a bit lame. We knew the show had a second season .. so they had to escape alive .. but .. I found it hard to believe they survived *that* close to the explosion (second only to an atom bomb)
Event .. gave up on it weeks ago
I’m still on the fence with The Event. It’s an interesting concept, but the plot and the characters have been so flat that I’m barely holding interest. I may or may not be back.
Looking foward to The Cape. Summer Glau is such a hottie, ill be watching this show just for her, hopefully its good!
I have to many shows to watch and not enough time to watch them all so I don’t follow SGU or the Event. Walking Dead is a great show and the finally was as good as expected.
@Joe, hey, lately your URL gets caught in the spam filter. Might wanna have that checked out, or leave the URL out for a while and see what happens.
Loved the ending of SG:U! They have really picked up this season.
The Walking Dead was a strong ending, but not as strong as I was expecting. I’m not sure if that is a statement of the show itself or me just not wanting it to end….
The Event? I’m still waiting for that show to have an ‘event’…..oh..like a cancellation?
SGU just got canceled, folks :-(…

This is it. I am fucking done with the god damn Syfy crap channel. I am no longer going to watch anything on this reality show driven trash heap of a channel. Then can burn in hell, I’m through.
First person to act smug towards me about SG*U gets punched in the junk. >:-( You won’t make it to the “ya” of “told ya so.” It’ll be “Told yeeeegaah!”
Stargate Universe – Canceled and not surprised, this was a poorly written show trying to skate by on the last Chevrons’ of SG1 and Atlantis. I never understood the logic of canceling a show – only to bring back an offshoot version – which the channel execs know is “Not what viewers want!”
The Walking Dead – Not seen it.
The Event – Another show that has potential if the writers don’t mess it up. Unfortunately, it is more than likely this show will go the way of “Fast Forward”.
