Thank you for the video. Stargate Atlantis will be missed. I do have a quick question about the video. In the video Brad Wright stated that Atlantis was doing well and was leaving on a high note but in his Q & A on Joe M's blog he mentioned that the reason SGA was canceled was because it didn't have the numbers. Question: Which statement is the truth [mod snip]?

Secondly, this is exactly what Brad said on Joe's blog:

"BW: Folks, if Atlantis was performing brilliantly in the ratings, it would still be on the air."

For your information, Stargate Atlantis' season five ratings were higher than season four's ratings were. However, with today's economy, the state of US television (including syndication), and the cost of producing a sixth season of SGA (vs a new season of SGU), the series was cancelled.

Neither of Brad's comments [mod snip] contradict themselves. They are accurate.

Ah well, my bad, sorry.

My mum says there are apples in the bowl, but my dad says the bowl is made of china. Which statement is the truth?

More importantly, why has the question been phrased as if only one statement can be true at a time?

Seriously, it's ending on a high, in my opinion and in that of many others, in terms of quality, and perhaps in terms of them enjoying what they're doing and feeling like they could keep going.

But they don't have the numbers: fewer people watch TV dramas than used to, and those who do often tivo (which means skipping the ads) and regardless of what anyone could say about the standard and quality, the show is more expensive to make, and less profitable, than the ideal scenario which would have seen renewal.

I too see no contradiction in what BW has said.

Ok, Let me explain what I read and/or heard. Brad, in the video, stated that SGA was going out on a high note.... to me that means the ratings were up there. Then in the Q&A with Joe M he made the statement that the ratings were not up there. I saw this as two opposite statements. If I was wrong then I'm sorry. This is how I saw the two statements. To imply that I don't know the difference between apples and china is just ( my snip).
I now realize how this forum is operatering and I will be more careful in the future.

It's a sad fate for all of us Sci Fi friends. Networks are going for what is cheap even though they already have financially successfull series..."reality TV." I grew up on the old Star Trek and it makes me sad that I'm losing all the great series on sci fi...

Well, i finally got to see what Cooper looked like.
