From Jeremy I learn that SciFi is cancelling Stargate SG-1 after the tenth season. Given that, even in its recent slump of a few tenths of a ratings point, SG-1 is still one of their highest rated shows, and is still able (as it did with its 200th) to hit the high notes on occasion, this is shocking.
Still, there's hope for the show, and the only current American chance of coming into throwing distance of Britain's claim on the longest-running sci-fi show in TV history (the original Doctor Who, with twenty-six seasons). The franchise is alive and well, even if SG-1 dies, and the producers look like they will be trying to work something out, although it isn't clear whether they can get anyone else to pick the show up. So I'll be crossing my fingers for a while, hoping that the show takes after Daniel Jackson....
