These are the only shows I watch.
Sorry, I'm going to sound harsh here, because television and recommending shows is serious business for me.
You have an interesting list
Doctor Who: Made of diamonds and golden awesome.
Walking Dead: Golden.
Stargate Universe: Ring made out of plastic found in a dirty gutter.
I'm curious, have you watched Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis?
And, why do you like Stargate Universe?
The reason I ask is if you had watched Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, you would have recommended Stargate SG-1, then Atlantis.
Also, all the Stargate fans I know and have talked to, despise Stargate Universe.
The only reason I continued watching it is because I wanted to see how long it took for the show to actually get to something remotely interesting or relatively related to anything Stargate.
Answer: It has taken one and a half season, and the related bit is only a half-hearted attempt.
It shouldn't be called Stargate Universe, it should be called Stargate Galactica: The Soap Opera. Because the horrible filming style from Battlestar is being used. On top of that are so many romantic relationships that are crisscrossed and messed up, it is as bad as a soap opera.
It is so bad that the things that the show is actually about, the stargate, the ship, and who created the universe, are delegated to an after thought or a less focused side story.
If they don't get their act together with this last half of season two, I will be hoping and praying that the show gets canceled. Because if they can't properly make a third show that holds the awesome title of Stargate, then it deserves to be canceled, and let Stargate live on with the epicness that came before this crap.
Rant over. I need to make a review thread for Stargate Universe, so I can go more into depth about how bad it is.
