I've been an originally Stargate (the movie) fan, Then Stargate the series, then Atlantis, and now Stargate Universe.
Of course my favorite series was the original series, but i really enjoyed atlantis. I have enjoyed SGU a bit but no where near the amount of the other two.
I think that because they dont go off world as much it does not make it as interesting, this series is more about the internal affairs and it's a much more serious episode. There does not seem to be the comedic relief characters as there were in the last 2 series which is kind of a downer.
I get really excited when i actually see Colonel Jack O'Neil in one of the episodes because his character had such FUNNY parts, he is always so funny to watch.
I would love to meet him (Richard Dean Anderson) in real life, now if i could only make it to the stargate convensions in vancouver one of these years to meet him AND Amanda Tapping..
