Look everyone,
I love stargate as much as any fan. I'm looking at my stack of box sets next to my DVD shelf right now. But 10 season is a LONG time for a show to air. It's not a failure for it to get canceled. I think season 9, 10 are some of the best stargate ever! In fact, I think some of the older seasons: 3,4,5 were inferior compared to the current season's storytelling. I loved RDA's character. But I like Mitchel and Vala as well. The ratings were low for the beginning of the season. But its summer! It's tough to get high ratings when everyone's off vacationing right before school starts. I think ratings are going to pick up. Probably pick up even more now that the cancelation is anounced.
Personally, I think after season 8 they really should have created a spin off series that includes Vala and Mitchel. Stargate Command should have been created to continue the series.
But ultimately, Stargate won't stop here. It will continue. Any other network on TV would have to be stupid to say no to SG1. It's an excellent show that would draw millions of viewers to its network. I think Spike TV should seriously consider buying it. Or hey? How about USA?
It's SciFi's loss. Stargate is now a franchise. Like Star Trek. It won't end. We'll see feature films, spinoff series' and TV movies in the future. I'm confident and hopefull.
