As many of you know, Stargate SG1 was been cancelled after it's 200th episode. As a loyal watcher, I was outraged, as were many others. The new threat (Hallowed are teh Ori) is no where close to being stopped, and it's wrong to end it like this. As fans, we're not asking for an eternal show. Just give SG1 more time, like 1 or 2 seasons more to finish it.

Man, if there's one thing that will surely overturn a corporation's financial decisions, it's an online petition!

I think I'm happy to let it die at this point. As long as something is being done with the stargate universe it's fine, and there's a game in the works right now, plus atlantis.

Come on. Do we REALLY want to watch it on the ****** Sci-Fi channel (which is essentially a ****** G4/Spike hybrid these days)?

The producers have already said they're looking for alternative means, and frankly, they've got RIDICULOUS numbers of options available.

Look at it this way, at the very least, they're going to keep it up until the end of the Ori. And then we reach a logical closure point. At the very least, the milky way is secure, at the best, two galaxies are secure and explored. Next stop: Pegasus.


Amusingly, soap operas are terrible shows that go on infinitely. Nobody would ever DARE cancel one. But a man soap-opera, like SG1, has a maximum lifespan.

We're waiting for it to die. The plots are still good(at least they fixed that much after crappy season 9), but the characters are tired.

Son of a *&#$*!

I knew it! I freakin knew it! After 200 episodes, season upon season of watching - I knew this day would come. I ranted and raved that they would pull the show mid-season and not finish up the storyline.

All you loyal fans are pissed and worried about wrapping up with the Ori! Come on people, one word.....FURLINGS! If you don't know what i'm talking about then your not a loyal fan.

I hate TV

They AREN'T pulling it mid-season.

It's going to finish out 10x

They still haven't shot the 2nd half of the season yet. It's not too late for a rewrite if they can't secure another place to air out the end of the story.

The military closes the Cheyenne mountain base, SG-1 gets cancelled. Coincidence? I think not. Stargate SG-1 is actually a government sponsored show, the purpose of which is to provide the military with plausible deniability in case the true Stargate program ever gets compromised.

What's even more brillant is that they even had a show in episode 200 where they have a show on the show used for the same purpose as what SG1 is used for in real life. Now, if anyone were to suspect that SG1 is being used as such and discloses it to the general public, they'd be labeled as crazy since "it's all just make believe".

It's too late for anything other than the finale.

I'm sorry, I love SG-1, I love Atlantis, but SG-1 is past it's prime. It should have ended with the final defeat of the goa'uld (sp?).

It's been a good run, but no show can last forever and SG-1 has a decade long run. :cheers;

Not if they've already signed on to take the show to a nother network, do TV movies, do a miniseries, or an actual series of Big Screen titles.
