Stargate SG-1 ends after this season

It already moved over from Showtime to syndication to Scifi, but I guess it could move back to syndication where they're still showing reruns. Doubt it though. I'm a little sad because I'm a fan of the show, but I have a friend who's going to go insane. Looking forward to the movie, if one exists, and maybe some new things on Atlantis.

I've missed a few eps here and there, but it's usually a fun show.
 
It's had a good run...far more successful than any other "current" scifi series. Now we just have to see if BSG will take it's place (Come on, SciFi, OCTOBER??? WTF???)..

And I like Dr. Who, and Atlantis is catching on to me as well.
 
What is ironic is that SG1 has always been given the news that each season after season 5 was their last, Richard Dean Anderson wanted out after 6 and the ending was to lead into a movie. Didn't happen, the movie was cancelled and season 7 was made. Then it happened all over again for season 8 and season 9 didn't look to hopeful either.

Now its in its 10th season, they actually planned a season 11 and it DOES get cancelled, here's hoping MGM can find another outlet for the show since they want to continue with it. It is their biggest franchise after their Bond series.

Failing that, wouldn't it be cool if they continued to make the series but just release it on DVD and iTunes, that would definately show how strong the show is without a channel hosting it always trying to move it around or change its lineup against other programs.

At the moment ALL the episodes on iTunes are in the top 100 video listed.
 
Am I the ONLY one who can't stand BSG? :D


Here's hoping that SciFi picks up "Surface" and keeps it going for awhile, or perhaps works with the "Aquaman" pilot.

well almost every friday night for me is sushi-scifi night. This is going to be difficult because i have been doing that for 2 years now. at least i have atlantis, eureka, dead like me, and BSG for my scifiness
 
I part of me will die when SG-1 ends. I have been watch since I first saw it on FOX almost a decade ago. Nothing made me happier then to see a TV show made after a movie I loved.

I can think of some creative words I would like to say to sci-fi right now. I never got into Atlantis, but I am going to try giving the alternative of no gate travel. Beside news, SG-1 is the only thing I really watch. Though when I was at A&M in 01' and saw farscape, I would skip class for my fix. They crapped that up to. I have yet to finish the farscape series.

I have a good filling that Jackson will be going to atlantis. I just hope they finish the ori plot. Damn them to hell if they don't.
 
i really think, while it's one of my 3 or 4 favorite shows, it's time for SG-1 to end.. it's been a long, great run, and a movie or two would bring great closure to a fantastic series. (especially if they can get Richard Dean Anderson back for them...)

Of course, Dead Like Me is another wonderful series that was cancelled too soon. Sci-Fi is just showing the reruns. (Dead Like Me was also filmed at the same studios where SG-1 & Atlantis are filmed.)

Aeolius: I'm not in love with BSG either, but for some reason I keep watching it, hoping I'll find something to like about it. I guess I could say I like the special effects.

I went to Creation's Official Stargate convention in Vancouver back in March of this year, and the audience was overwhelmingly women. :D

Those were all qoates from that Simpsons episode that RDA guest starred on last year. I don't doubt there are a lot of female fans. Every Stargate forum on the net is riddled with Shanks/Browder is so hot threads.

What season did you get up to? You should really finish watching the rest of the series and Peacekeeper Wars. I finally finished watching last week. I just discovered Farscape last fall when it got syndicated on late night tv. I've been buying the Starburst Edition DVDs since December. Got to the second to last volume at the beginning of this month and couldn't wait for the final volume to be released in October. So I broke down and bought the older more expensive editions of the episodes I was missing along with the Peacekeeper Wars. After that I needed more Browder/Black so I imported the season 9 of SG-1 from the UK.
I was hoping Fargate would satisfy my Farscape withdrawl for a few years, but I guess it wasn't ment to be.
I wonder how much of the cast can sneek into Atlantis.

No, they can't release it all on iTunes because I don't have broadband and I FRAKKIN' LOVE SG-1!!!!

I hope, that if this is true, somehow some of the current crew members would move to Atlantis.

Vala, oh Vala, how I love you. :cool: I like Atlantis, and it has gotten better over time, just like SG-1. It was a little shaky in the beginning, you have to admit, but that's practically all shows. I'm glad my FOX station stopped re-running season 1 of Atlantis and started showing season 2 because I swear, I saw the Genii episodes at least 5 times. They are also replaying season 8, I think, of SG-1 which is good.

I hope they get renewed. I can't live without it, and BSG.
 
I am crushed. My friday nights are ruined.

I hope beyond hope that some other network will pick them up. I'm going to send angry letters to Sci-Fi complaining about this bone-head move. And, for good measure, letters to Spike or some other channel and tell them to pick it up.
 
some one said it before BUT...

SAVE WALTER!!! what would we do without him, how would we have known what chevrons were locked or engaged.

there has to be a save walter site. there just has to be

Don't forget about Steve. ;)
 
And now apparently next friday is just a night of the fan favorites of SG1 and not new episodes of SG1 nor Atlantis i believe

:(
 
The problem with having so many channels showing the same programs these days, is it's hard to figure out which channel you're watching a show on, and whether it's chronologically ahead of or behind the last one you watched. I'm watching 2 shows a night (Sky One here, after midnight), but have no idea which series it is - Jonas has been in the show, and Jackson is back, though I missed the episode where that was fully explained! Anyone know which series that is?

Whichever, it seems the production quality was greatly improved that season, the general cinematography and 'score' is generally feature-film quality.

On another (offtopic) note, since someone mentioned BSG, I just checked to see when season II is out here, and according to HMV it's out today! I missed most episodes when they were broadcast - is the second season worth buying as a box set?

Jonas was on the show during Season/Series 6, and Jackson's return is explained at the beginning of Season/Series 7.
