The Stargates survive!

Last year Stargate SG-1 got cancelled, now another gate closes down… but you can’t send a great tv series in oblivion! Bad news aside, 2008 proves to be a HUGE Stargate year!

 

Stargate SG-1 survived several cast changes, spawned a succesful sister series Stargate Atlantis and the show’s heroes were victorious against many foes. But the show starring Richard Dean Anderson, Beau Bridges and Amanda Tapping didn’t survive the number crunching bureaucrats at SciFi Channel’s headquarters.

 

More bad news…

 

Now after 5 succesful seasons, Stargate Atlantis also needs to close down.

 

SciFi channel wants a noughties scifi series with a younger cast, as apparently Stargate Atlantis is too much "nineties" for them.

 

But hang on there’s loads of good news too!
