Ancients, Wraiths, Love, Adventure - Should Have Continued

Do you ever sit flipping through the channels wishing something would catch your eye? And think fondly of the days your screen was filled with good science fiction? I was having one of those days and I was very grateful for DVD box sets. It was time for a long overdue binge of watching, Stargate Atlantis.
I miss the days of waiting for a new episode of any Stargate franchise show. My husband got me hooked on Stargate SG1 back when we were dating and it was an ever constant in our lives from day 1. We spent many evening watching the antics of the SG1 crew. Stargate Atlantis was a great addition to the Stargate universe and I flip flop daily on which one is my favorite (Stargate Universe deserves its own article considering the awful cliffhanger the show ended on).

I love the unknown you felt watching Stargate Atlantis. John Shepard, Teyla, Rodney McKay, and Ronon (played by Joe Flannigan, Rachel Luttrell, David Hewlett, and Jason Momoa) were the heart and soul of the cast. We got to see some familiar faces from SG1 like Richard Dean Anderson, Michael Shanks, Christopher Judge; which made us want to rewtch SG1 all over again.
I think I'll have to write up my favorites from each show and seasons. But here is a great look back at Stargate Atlantis and how much it is missed.
