SGA News

I'm kinda not surprised, actually.



So apparently SGA is getting cancelled. You know, when it first started up I didn't think it would last very long, especially with the casting changes happening early in the series. But then it seemed to be going on pretty strong around S2 and S3 even if I didn't like it. At that point, I figured they were going to press for five season. That seems to be the magic number for tv shows to better syndicate.

I do give the show credit for lasting longer than I intially thought it would, though. And it sounds like they want to do movies, so any SGA fans will at least have that.

Sorry, guys. It always sucks when you shows get cancelled. :(

I watch a few eps here and there, but you can tell they were struggling to get people to stay on the show. Tapping was only there for a season, and Jewel Staite signed on after three years of production had already occurred. My heart definitely goes out to the fandom.

Er, I don't think it was a matter of getting people to stay on the show--it was more a matter of finding cheaper actors so they could fire the more established older and more expensive actors.

If Rodney McKay hadn't turned into such a break-out character, he would have been gone toot-sweet after the first season, IMO.
