"What we endeavor to do each time is to introduce the franchise to a new
audience, make it a bit more contemporary, more relatable," Howe told
Multichannel News this week. "The ambition with Universe is to skew it
younger than the previous two chapters and fill it with a fresh-faced cast;
and a storytelling that is more for the late 2000s than it is for the 1990s."

"我們每次都致力於向推廣這個經銷權(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_franchise
給新收視群，讓它更與時俱進，廣受認同。" Howe本週告訴Multichannel News說, "我們
對Universe的雄心是讓它比前兩部更年輕，換上新面孔的演員，劇情更符合2000年代末期
而非1990年代。

Howe also wants Stargate Universe to help fill the "space opera" gap left
when network jewel Battlestar Galactica goes off the air next spring. While
of course Stargate will never be the dark and brooding character drama that
Battlestar is, Universe might be a little more so than SG-1 or Atlantis.

Howe也希望Stargate Universe能填補Battlestar Galactica明年春季結束後，在頻道
上留下的太空劇的空檔。當然Stargate絕不會如同BSG一樣黑暗血腥，但Universe也許
會比SG-1或Atlantis更加如此。


"As a network, obviously we look at Battlestar Galactica, that's set the
standard in terms of tense character drama. Stargate does not have the
intensity of a Battlestar Galactica. But it may well be somewhere in between.
Brad [Wright] and Robert [Cooper] are very eager to keep the action and
adventure and the sense of humor [in Stargate Universe]. But I think there's
an opportunity to maybe inject a bit more dramatic intensity into the series.
But that's obviously a conversation for them as they start to script and move
into development."

身為一個電視台，我們當然視BSG為緊湊劇情的標竿。Stargate不具備BSG的強度，但它
(指Universe)也許會介於兩者之間。Brad Wright和Robert Cooper非常渴望在Universe
保留動作、冒險、以及幽默感。但我認為也許有機會為這個影集注入一些戲劇強度。

這位高義還告訴把他信箱灌爆的SGA fans:

people need to mourn for a while and come to terms with it. I don't anticipate
that that will subside quickly.
