Yeap was an accident on the beach apparently. It was a shame as Ba'al was one of the better characters in the series. I didn't think much of Continuum though.

Yeah surfing accident or something a few years ago now
I always thought he'd make a great Lord Asriel for the movies based on Philip Pullman's Northern Lights. Also one of my favourite SG characters/actors.

Ba'al's little quip when he executes Aphosis in Continuum still makes me chuckle.
I've been looking forward to this for years. Since Amazon bought MGM there's always been rumours of a resurgence of Stargate. Finally we got the announcement we've been waiting for! I was a big fan back in the day, i even enjoyed Destiny and was somewhat disappointed when they cancelled at the end of season 2.
I think there was a graphic novel or something that continued the story of Destiny after Eli put the rest of the crew to sleep. That was an interesting read for sure.
I'm hoping that in some aspect, we finally get to meet or at least learn a bit more about the Furlings that were teased so often in SG1.

Really need to re-watch those two (Ark of Truth too) as it's been years since I saw them!
One of my favourite TV shows of all time and just saw a random news article that said this was renewed. I had no idea.
I might have to rewatch it from start to finish, but some of the Atlantis episodes drag on a bit.
Some hate for Universe in this thread but I actually think it was crazy good. The acting was another level better than both previous incarnations.

Yeah Atlantis is sadly quite hit and miss to rewatch - the first 2-3 episodes, minus them going to the planet so early, is still some of my favourite TV and there are some great later episodes with the interaction between Rodney and Sam - though ultimately I was never a fan of the return to Earth part of it. I'd love a complete rewrite of it which kept it dark and mysterious and more about the city, Wraith and uncovering the mysteries and so on of the Ancients and their conflict with the Wraith - though I'm not a fan of flashbacks, etc. I think it would work here.
Yeah I love all the new technology stuff and they just didn't explore the city enough, likely cause it would have been expensive in set design.
It just got all a bit boring with the eratus bug virus they made and some of the colonists were just a bit annoying.
Still love the series but I could skip a third of it and not be upset.
