... or maybe not... But probably.
Via GateWorld...
The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.
SG-1 has struggled in the ratings all summer, with the record-breaking tenth season premiering with a 1.4 household rating -- down more than 20 percent from last season's average. After a brief climb to a 1.6 in its second week, the show fell to a 1.3 in week four.
Man. I bet that Ben Browder and Claudia Black are pissed - this is the second show that's been cancelled on them (Farscape, anyone?), and it's certainly NOT because they're poor actors...
However, me being the ol' stick-in-the-mud that I am, I lost a lot of my interest when Richard Dean Anderson's character, Jack O'Neill, was less of a presence on the show. For me, SG-1 **IS** RDA, Christopher Judge, Michael Shanks and Amanda Tapping (O'Neill, Teal'c, Daniel Jackson, Samantha Carter).
I liked RDA better as MacGuyver.

I never watched MacGuyver, although I herd a lot of good things about it.
Of course, Seth, this just means you're a really "ol' stick-in-the-mud"! LOLOLOL

TS for SG1. I liked the show better before the cast started to get screwed up. It seems like the new folks from Farscape are a bit of a kiss of death on tv. Oh well. There is always a chance the show can keep going with a strong public out cry
