Yup, you missed it. Except it's probably on Wednesdays and upside down where you are. Didn't Oz ban the show or something?
Just Google = Torrent+SGU+S2E1

Naw, it's on Fridays still here on the Scifi cable channel. Channel 10 which had it canned it after 3 weeks for poor ratings (but then, they canned supernatural as well which was the follow-on show
)As to being upside down, that might make it better
Torrents, don't do it. I'll watch it on Sat when it gets replayed or just DVR it and watch it later. Just me but I hate Torrent sites for TV/Music, if you want it, pay for it.
getting it now...
I am getting it now. Its morbid curiosity, sorta like wanting to make SURE the thing is still dying. It doesnt matter if it runs under the couch, or to a new day of the week. Its gonna end up twitching and then finally still. I wanna see the episode and then I will know whether my feeling that they will have a sub-million premiere will be valid. And we get ratings TOMORROW!

3 excuses.
BIG EXCUSE X: "Our target audience was still doing their homework by the time the show aired, but by next week, they'll have dropped out of school, so we should see an uptick."
BIG EXCUSE X+1: "People need to get used to the show being on Tuesdays, it may take a few episodes. The SGU spots where running during the SG-1 marathon, but cool people don't watch that show."
BIG EXCUSE X+2: "The marketing campaign was missed by cool people that have lives, but now that the kids are back in school and parents are home from vacation, we'll start seeing an uptick in the ratings."
... ok a few more:
BIG EXCUSE X+3: "As with the software industry, we're seing that many people are pirating the episodes on bit torrent sites .. if it wasn't for the pirates, then people will have CERTAINLY watched the show live, just like software pirates would certainly PURCHASE the software."
BIG EXCUSE X+4: "Oh cool people are recording/PVR'ing (?)* the show to watch it later."
* I've never even seen a PVR thingy .. but doesn't PVR'ing contribute to ratings anwyays?

Whenever Lt. James walks on screen the majority of the male audience has a sudden urge to leave the room and contemplate their thoughts in the bathroom for a good hour or so.
On another note the sales of andrex tissue paper have gone up.
