Television Recommendation: Stargate (Seasion 5, sort of)
So, for the first recommendation, I've got the television series stargate. Just finished up watching season 5 and moving on to 6 on the dvds now, which can be found at your local store, online retailer, or, if you're lucky like me, library.
The two rules of Stargate: 1, any human colony with sufficiently advanced technology will inevitably be a bunch of utter dicks, and 2, as a general rule, how good an individual episode of the show (from season 3 onward, at least) is directly proportional to the number of unrelated prior episodes referenced by characters in the teaser+ the first act. (That would be the first 'chapter' on the DVD format; the evil producers of the Stargate DVDs having chosen to break the fundamental rule of TV on DVD by not providing a chapter break immediately after the opening credits. Especially after the switch to the extremely boring Sci-FI channel credits in the later seasons.)
