Leans Progressive
Primary
Stargate Universe primarily explores the pragmatic challenges of survival, resource management, and human nature under extreme pressure, rather than promoting a specific political ideology. It consistently presents the complexities and necessity of diverse approaches, leading to a neutral stance.
Stargate Universe features a visibly diverse main cast, including prominent minority and LGBTQ+ characters. The narrative focuses on survival and character development, without explicitly critiquing or negatively framing traditional identities.
Secondary
Stargate Universe includes a minor but affirming portrayal of a same-sex relationship. Eli Wallace's mother, Maryann, is depicted in a loving partnership with Sharon, which is presented as a normal aspect of her life, free from negative framing or stereotypes, contributing to a respectful depiction.
The show features female characters in various roles, including military personnel who participate in combat. However, there are no clear instances where a female character is depicted as victorious in direct, close-quarters physical combat against one or more male opponents using skill, strength, or martial arts.
Stargate Universe introduces a new primary cast and storyline within the Stargate franchise. Its main characters are original to the series and are not gender-swapped versions of established characters from prior Stargate films or shows.
Stargate Universe introduces a new ensemble of original characters for its series. No established legacy characters from prior Stargate installments were recast with actors of a different race.
