Season 8 is the end? - Page 2 - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

I know myself that I wouldnt mind seeing Sam or Teal'c in it.

Nor would I.. or even see SG-1 continue with Corrin returning or someone else popular. Maybourne maybe?? Anyways, just because RDA wants out I do not think that essentially dooms the show. If Sci-fi is happy with the ratings (as of now they are estatic) and they still have stories (already stated they have enough ideas for at least 10-12 seasons) and the rest of the ensemble cast wanted to continue I see no reason it could not. Though I would miss RDA, I think 1 single character leaving does not doom it, even RDA's character.

When the cast was asked about Season 9 at the Aug. Convention in NJ, they said they were in negotiations for a Season 9. Michael Shanks said he couldn't see why they wouldn't have a season 9 with the way the ratings have been.

Don Davis said he would be appearing in a made for Video Movie and a feature film and may be doing some guest appearances in later seasons.

Chris Judge also said they were in negotiations for Season 9 with MGM and SciFi.

So it sounded kind of hopeful that there would be another season as long as they avoid Jumping the Shark.

For a non American, is that good or bad? In the UK that would be excellent for sci-fi...

In the UK that would be excellent for anything wasn't a soap or that wasn't 'reality TV'

Wow! Negotiations for Season 9?! Sounds promising to me. As I would hate to see RDA leave the show, I totally understand his reasons (we're facing retirement as well - it's just not much fun anymore). I believe SG-1 could float nicely w/o him, but it will be more work. I also think Atlantis will (and has) hold it's own. It's a solidly thought out show with a strong cast.

I have a feeling that O'Neill and Carter aren't quite done yet with the whole romantic deal. We shall see won't we?

That would be good...very good. :rolly2:

And even more good news... at the Chicago con they still said they were talking about season 9. I think it's safe to say, there will be...

w00t! :rolly2:

10 million viewers for a cable sci-fi show is not only good - it is uncharted territories type good

No, and it gives me a feeling of omniscience to be looking at your January 2004 thread posting. That's a nice feeling to have, because when I started looking at the Gate in 2006, everyone else had seen it and I didn't know where the other Gate forums were besides Sci Fi dot Com. I'm just watching the somewhat delayed final season of the series now--there's another episode on tonight.
