Stargate sg1 why did it end

These new elements didn't guarantee the series' longevity past Season 10, and Syfy confirmed the cancellation in After all, Season 10 premiered to the lowest ratings in the show's history and was the most expensive to produce. Our contract with MGM prohibits it. It's done a great job, rejuvenated with the additions of Ben, Claudia, and Beau, but we think we've come to the end of those stories.

We really felt like it was the right time to segue out, for the show not to overstay its welcome. The final episode of season 10 shows the Asgard sharing everything they have and know with the SG-1 team and the Odyssey crew in anticipation of their extinction.

The attack from the Ori compels Lt. Samantha Carter Amanda Tapping to create a localized time dilation field to buy time while they look for solutions to defend themselves against the Ori attacks. The initial months in isolation onboard the Odyssey see each team member dealing with life at their own pace.

When the spin-off series Stargate Atlantis was created three years ago, it was expected that it would be replacing SG But Stargate SG-1 was rejuvenated and did so well that it was decided to air both series concurrently.

The Sci Fi Channel made the announcement not to renew the series on August 26, But Sci Fi does not own the SG-1 show. So, could the show simply be picked up by another cable station or network? Not a chance. Our contract with MGM prohibits it.

We really felt like it was the right time to segue out, for the show not to overstay its welcome. How about movies or DVDs or even downloadable episodes via iTunes? The fan base is fiercely loyal. The studio even went so far as to create a special section of their StargateSG1. Fans of the show started their own campaign SaveStargateSG1. Well, the diligence has paid off. Wright himself plans to create the second film script and said it will involve time travel.

The studio is targeting a Fall release for both projects — just a few months after the airing of Stargate SG-1 season The producers have expressed interest in starting a third series based on the Stargate world. Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, and the Sci Fi Channel hopes that the spin-off series can stand alone.

So, the future looks very good for the Stargate world. Old-school fans who enjoyed the humor of Stargate-SG1 and Stargate Atlantis were surprised at the much darker tone of Stargate Universe , while viewers who would have enjoyed that style of series didn't expect their tastes to be met by a Stargate show in the first place.

Engler's account rings true that Syfy really did try to save Stargate Universe ; he was able to explain why the network tried different time-slots, based on successes with shows like Warehouse But, sadly, some experiments simply don't work out, and Stargate Universe failed to perform well enough to be renewed.

The story of Stargate Universe was ultimately continued in a tie-in comic, although the canonicity of that story is questionable, given none of the original creators were involved in the comic book run.

Sadly, the cancellation of Stargate Universe essentially led to the end of the entire Stargate franchise, and there hasn't been a new series on TV since Tom Bacon is one of Screen Rant's staff writers, as well as a Peer Mentor for new writers and a member of the Care Team, offering support and a listening ear to members of the Comics group. A lifelong fan of major franchises including Star Wars, Doctor Who, and Marvel, Tom is delighted his childhood is back - and this time it's cool.
