I am with Comic Book Guy when he says “of the four Star franchises: Wars, Trek, Gate and Search; Gate is easily my third favorite”. But Stargate has its moments, and in Simpsons-like fashion they celebrated their 200th episode with a very Treehouse Of Horror type set of stories and parodies…here is the Trek one
The episode also parodied Team America, Star Wars, The Wizard of Oz, and Farscape . One admirable quality of Stargate is that it doesn’t take itself too seriously (like that other show on SciFi Channel…Hey Ron I Kid I Kid…love BSG).

I will say that I would TOTALLY be behind Ben Browder as Kirk. I am sure that I am a small voice in a LARGE CROWDED ROOM, but I firmly believe he could carry it.
although I am sure he could do it, I don t think that would be a wise marketing decision. I think they need some one with wider appeal beyond the genre audience. That is the same issue I had with Scott Bakula best known for Quantum Leap, although he was capable…I thought they should have brought in someone with a bigger nongenre base, maybe from a CSI or NYPD blue type of show.
