Stargate episode 200!!!

[geoschmo]

My recollection, and perhaps it's flawed, is that MGM never intended to continue SG-1 past season 8. They only wanted the one series, Atlantis. They were going to have the big whopping battle over the arctic, kill off Anubis, Hammond and O'niell would retire to do some fly fishing, Daniel would stay ascended and Carter would head off to run the Atlantis expedition. SciFi channel was apparently the one that cajoled them into doing another couple seasons of both shows.

To be honest there have been times when the two shows have been a little akward. It might have been better if they had just commited to one. If it meant we wouldn't have had to slog throgh this Ori storyline, I almost wouldn't have minded.

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.

Um it has been struggling? WTF, your running new episodes on FRIDAY NIGHTS in the middle of SUMMER..... FOR GODS SAKE FIGURE IT OUT YOU F**KING MORONS! Who the hell is going to stay home on an hot Friday night during summer? WTF! How f**king stupid are they at Sci-Fi? I mean Jesus Christ you f**king morons! I sware to God, each time I see some really stupid movie on Sci-fi, such seems to be the norm as of late, and then read that they cancelle a solid show I want to drive to their HQ and bomb it! (Figuratively speaking.. pass a really big fart in the building and stink the place up... wink)

Its like this, your trying to sell ice cream in the middle of winter at midnight. Who the hell is going to buy your ice cream in the middle of winter, at midnight? Not a lot of folks. Now if you try and sell that same ice cream during summer say at around 7pm, well then your going to sell a lot of it.

Stargate is NOT ice cream.... sure its great, but come on! Running new episodes in the middle of summer is like trying to sell Ice Cream in the middle of winter.... for crying out loud what kind of dumb f**kes to they have working at Sci-Fi?

There needs to be a "timeslot factor"... multiply by N for crappy timeslots to indicate how well they'd do in "primetime" slots.
