    Hey, they did mention some backstory in season 7. Not a lot, but some.
    The way I saw it, practically every episode except for Revisions involved some sort of reference (overt or otherwise) to previous episodes/characters/arcs. Personally, I liked Revisions: they go out, they find trouble, they save the/a world. Simple and self-contained. Season 6 had a few more (Sight Unseen, Forsaken, Memento). It made me wonder if S7 could draw new viewers or if the new viewers might be left feeling like they missed something. Having watched from Day 1 on Showtime, I have no perspective on this matter.

        The Aschen are supposed to make a comeback in S8. Match them up vs Goa'uld...

              It's mentioned on the Season 8 page at Gateworld. Joe Mallozzi simply said that Brad Wright had envisioned a continuation of the Aschen story and that maybe he'd (BW) develop it. Far from a sure thing.

                Oh I thought he might be joking....it still made me cringe just thinking about it!!

                This is really nothing against TPTB (at least from me). They've had a wonderful run, I've enjoyed all seven seasons, some more than others, but I've enjoyed all of them.

                It would make me cringe to hear *any* show talking about 12 or 13 seasons, even the shows that I've enjoyed most! It's a very difficult task to take a concept and keep it fresh and interesting for that long a period.

                  I believe talk of the Aschen showing up in Season 8 was a reference to the fact that the original story arc for the Aschen was a "trilogy," and that there was a "third episode" already floating around in the back of everyone's mind. If that is the case, it would be a shame if we never got to see it . . .

                  As to the Freddy vs. Jason thing I would much rather see the replicators than Apophis. Bringing Apophis back would really stretch the whole believability factor for me. You could maybe talk me into Anubis. We know the replicators are back, at least for the first part of the season. What about the Retou? Baal is supposed to be a real baddie this season . . .

                      I agree. I can't see the same basic storyline, cast AND premise continuing on that long. That's probably why they started the spinoff.

                        Warning: Annoying large font coming.

                        HE WAS JUST JOKING AROUND FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!

                        It's an interview with journalists, of course he's gonna say stuff like that. The only situation you should worry about his mental state is if he says that here on GateWorld

                          They already did, in Season 7's Enemy Mine. Remember Spirits?

                            probably. every show reaches a point where

                            there's so much back story that it becomes ponderous and tedious to keep track of

                            actors get tired of doing the same job and are ready to leave...taking thier characters with them

                            like someone said, giving a cast and crew an average raise for so many years eventually budgets a show out of existence.

                            there are very few shows that can go on for a long time. 60 minutes for example, of course they have no plot to worry about, just stories. Law and Order, they've switched casts how many times???? and there's no shortage of stories for them to base thier stuff on. and we learn just snippits about the individual characters, the show is about the cases

                              Causality should not be taken lightly.

                                WHAT? All they have in common is that they want to mine a rare mineral from another planet, the plots are nothing alike!
