That's the problem I have when I hear people compare Stargate with BSG - apples to oranges. I'd go so far as to say that BSG is more a disaster show with some sci-fi thrown in. SG-1, at times, has gone as dark as BSG, but that's not its theme, rather the opposite - hope.
And I can guess why you watch BSG and it's probably the same reason I do - it's a sci-fi show, and there's so little sci-fi (space ships, etc) out there, that we have to support what there is. It's well-written, but it's not rewatchable like SG1 and SGA are.
And I pray that SGU doesn't go the way of BSG, because that's not what Stargate is about - besides, there'll be Caprica to fill the BSG void. More likely, it'll be a dumbed down version of SG1 and SGA, and that's not good either.
