Okay, Mr Wright, Mr Malozzi and all other 'hangers on' I'm getting pretty pissed at being blamed for Universe tanking. It's tanking because it's bollocks, end of story.

I Love dark Sci-Fi, and I loved SGA, (in fact some of my favourite episodes of SGA are the darkest ones among the series), but that's not why I don't like Universe. Universe simply didn't do it for me, not because I loved SGA, but because Universe doesn't work.

The writing is weak, where is should be strong, but we've seen that before in episodes of SGA where the writers simply didn't appear to have the courage to put their money where their mouth is, and stand up for their own concepts of the darkness in the Pegasus Galaxy. They were /told/ by the networks, and TPTB to 'humanise' the Wraith, (and particularly Michael), and this frankly killed what could have kept SGA going with or without the introduction of Universe. They caved too easily, and it hurt them, because having done as they were told they got 'fed up' with writing for Michael, with writing for the Wraith, went off half cocked and as a result Season 5 sucked. No wonder it was cancelled, but was it down to Universe? No. Was it down to poor writing, as the troubles that Universe is now having - yes.

Those involved need to Grow up, man up and take responsibility for their own mistakes, and do something about it - something that's not whining!

Not a happy little bunny right now, as is evidenced by the icon <==

I spent all evening coding the latest installment (the last installment actually), of No Way Back... and as I always do before posting that it's live, I went to check it. I didn't do anything I don't always do... uploaded it in exactly the same way, just... nothing works.

The ENTIRE WEBSITE is down.. 404s all round. So I call my webhost, speak to someone that is /less/ than helpful, who obviously fails to resolve the problem, and all she can do is issue a support ticket, for some poor engineer to then go fix the problem.

So, if you're trying to get to my site right now, you can't... but they're working on it, though they can give me no idea how long it will take.

*sighs*
