Finally got around to starting Atlantis So I finally started watching Atlantis and I've finished season 1.

Current thoughts? It's OK.  A few annoying characters - some OK ones. 
It doesn't feel original though. Something about it feels like it's just SG1 episodes with different characters. 

We've had a pretend world, secret codes to discover etc. But we also have a big enemy who is more powerful than the human team who wouldn't be a problem if the Earth crew hadn't alerted them to our existence. The crew picks up an alien member who grew up in fear of the big bad guys. This alien is also quite a master of combat. The team then have to spend much of their time looking for new technology to help them overcome this new enemy. 

Does it get more ...original?
