      Sci Fi Renews 'Stargate' Pair
      (Monday, November 15 08:30 AM)


      LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) Fresh off its highest rated summer and early fall ever, the Sci Fi Channel is renewing two of the shows that helped jump-start its ratings. The cable network has ordered a second season of "Stargate Atlantis" and a ninth season of "Stargate SG-1."

      Both dramas come from MGM Television Entertainment and will begin production in March 2005 or 20-episode seasons to premiere in the summer of 2005.

      "Stargate Atlantis" premiered in July to an audience of more than 4.2 million viewers, breaking numerous Sci Fi records. The show's stars, including Joe Flanigan, Torri Higginson, David Hewlett, Rainbow Sun Francks, Rachel Luttrell and Paul McGillion, are all signed on to return in the second season.

      Many of the records that "Atlantis" broke were originally held by "SG-1," which will tie "The X-Files" as the longest-running sci-fi drama series on American television when it returns for its ninth installment, according to Sci Fi. The cable network will only say that MGM is in negotiations with the show's stars to return.
      Robert C. Cooper and "SG-1" co-creator Brad Wright will continue to serve as executive producers on both shows.

      Although Sci Fi is already looking forward to the future seasons of the "Stargate" franchises, there are still new episodes of both series ready to go in January 2005. That month will also see the premiere of the new series adaptation of "Battlestar Galactica."

          If this information is so, then I'm very happy. I was certainly expecting a second season of Atlantis, but uncertain of a ninth season of SG1. It will be very interesting to learn more.

                    http://scifi.com/stargate/press/press_05.html

                    Interestingly, it confirmed that Joe Flanigan, Torri Higginson, David Hewlett, Rainbow Sun Francks, Rachel Luttrell, and Paul McGillion would be back, but that they're still in negotiations with the cast of SG-1. And production is set to begin in March, not February as in years past.

                              Congrats on the renewal for SG-1. It is certainly an achievement to be going into the 9th year of production. Interesting that they're still in negotiations for the original cast. Doesn't mention anyone being added to the cast.

                              Well whatever happens I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will turn out well.

                              And great news for Atlantis! It certainly deserves a second season and I'm looking forward to further adventures of the Atlantis crew.
