Stargate Universe. See the short preview?

That's pretty vague. Probably all scenes from the one premier episode and not much an indicator of the whole series. That said, I'll call it now: A new SG crew takes charge in Atlantis(or perhaps some new Ship), they fire up the newly discovered Wormhole Drive, and it malfunctions as Zelenka warned about in the Finale to SG:Atlantis. They all end up in some random place in the Universe, trying to find home.
 
What were they thinking casting Lou Diamond Phillips in this? I may not watch it because he's in it, but Ming Na is in it so I might watch it.

He should be ok.
 
Looks like Stargate: Galactica to me. But you can't really draw conclusions from a few seconds from one episode.

SciFi was not the reason they canceled Atlantis but because of MGM and they wanted to spend the money on more direct-to-DVD movies.

Yes, because they have made so many of the direct-to-DVD movies
/sarcasm

I think that Scifi and MGM couldn't agree on money and Scifi made MGM take the public relations hit by blaming it on them.
If you have followed how scifi has treated some of its actors who ask for raise by canning them you have an idea how the scifi suits work. You would have also seen their attitude towards their made for t.v. movies which is we don't care about anything except whether we can promote the title of the movie and don't give a cr*p about their quality as long as you will do it for x dollars.
The sciffy suits wouldn't know scifi if it bit them on their *asses.
It is only the strong interest by many producers, directors, etc to make scifi stuff that has given us scifi stuff like BSG and Taken.

 
The fact is MGM pulled the plug on atlantis but it was sci fi that pulled the plug on sg1 so a bit more hate is going to sci fi. 😉

Didn't you guys get the memo? It's Syfy now, that means it must be good because everyone knows changing your name changes crappy products to good ones!

I heard the idea is basically there's an 8th chevron on the gate that gets figured out. Normally you use 6 to travel within a galaxy, the 7th activates a mode to travel to a different galaxy (hence Pegasus and Atlantis), and the 8th gets you even farther. The ancients had seed ships they'd send out on long term missions to seed the galaxies with stargates. This 8th chevron lets you get onto one of those ships. Apparently somehow a bunch of people get on it and yeah.

That makes sense. I just thought Atlantis may have setup things with the Wormhole Drive. :shrug;

It's the 9th (and final) chevron, not the 8th. The 8th (or rather the 7th in a series of 8, the 8th being the point of origin) is for long-distance dialing.
