SG-gone

Sci Fi Channel is grounding "Stargate SG-1," the longest-running science-fiction series on U.S. television to date.

The cable network has decided not to order additional episodes beyond the show's current 10th season, but it has picked up a fourth season of its more-popular spinoff, "Stargate Atlantis."

Never watched the show myself. But as long as it has an energized fanbase and decent ratings, I'm not sure why this is happening. I realize the franchise continues in SGA, but I suspect the show's costs have more to do with it....

In that case, I'd...stay away from Galactica. It's...uhm, boring, that's it. Tedious and boring. Not worth your time. Yeah, that's the ticket.

(Seriously, are FOX and Sci Fi involved in some sort of Faustian wager to see which can Firefly the most shows?)

To be fair, after 10 seasons I don't think they can quite be accused of Firflying SG1. :)

Okay, wrong show-verb. "Farscaping" it, then.
