I've been wondering about this for a while. 'Gate has always had an amazing ability to self-correct when it gets a bit off track, or go off in new directions when the old ones get stale. It's far better than any other series in that regard, and it was one of their strengths.
But were the producers themselves happy with SGA? It seems to have been fiddled with more than either other series, significant cast changes, significant premise changes, lots more fiddling about than SG1 ever went through (Mostly, as I understand it, because of Syfy meddling), and it ended a year early with no solid conclusion, and a dozen dangling threads.
I don't know the backroom deals, but word on the street is that Wright and/or Mallozi basically jumped at the chance to do SGU even if it meant killing off SGA, which suggests they weren't entirely thrilled with it. (I admit total ignorance on this, just curious).
Anyone know?
