It’s still a few weeks until “Stargate Universe” returns with new episodes. Until then, why not take a look at the cool trailer for season 2.

Some of the female characters of “Stargate Universe”:

I have a confession to make: I’m a sci fi fan.

Alright, so you probably already figured that out from reading my blog posts about the Stargate franchise or Battlestar Galactica. I’m not just watching those shows because of the amazing  female characters and sexy actresses (even though I think that would be a good enough reason), but because I really love watching sci fi shows, and also sci fi movies.

Why am I telling you this? Well, I thought that it might help you understand why I picked this particular video as “Must-See of the Week”: The trailer for the upcoming second season of “Stargate Universe”.

Because the little sci fi geek in me thinks it’s very, very cool.

The new season of Stargate Universe is due to start airing on Sept. 28, 2010.

By the way, if you still need a reason (or excuse) to watch: SGU is one of the very few, if not the only sci fi show with an openly lesbian character. Camile Wray (Ming-Na) is the quasi-leader of the civilian crew on board the spaceship Destiny. In the first season, there were two episodes that featured her partner Sharon (Reiko Aylesworth), and judging from the trailer, Sharon will be back in the second season as well. Also, it looks like Louise Lombard, who played Det. Sofia Curtis on CSI for several seasons, will be back as Gloria, the wife of Dr. Nicholas Rush (Robert Carlyle).

So, what do think? Are you into Stargate as much as I am? Let me know in the comments.
