I was curious to hear the reaction to Michael Shanks interview with Alan Blair of Sci-Fi Wire today. If you haven't read it, here's the link:

The title of the interview is, "Shanks, 'Sg1 as Good as Dead'. I know that SG1's demise has been widely discussed both here and elsewhere. I think that most fans figured that it was a log-shot to hope for any new films, even direct to DVD. But, I was rather sad to hear him say it, because now that what everyone's been thinking is out in the open, that's pretty much the end of it.
The interview was actually to promote Shank's role in Smallville. Here's a quote:
"Never say never. It's always a possibility,” Shanks said of future Stargate projects. “But I think everybody's moving on to a certain point, and with the new show doing well, everybody's focusing their attention on that. The ‘SG-1’ idea is somewhat on the back burner, which is a little bit unfortunate, because I think one more story would have been a great way to bring Rick [Anderson] back in and really go there. But you know, business is business."
It was good to hear him say that one more SG1 story would have been nice, but the tone of the rest of the article pretty much makes that a longshot at best.
Thoughts?
