New Stargate Series
Robert C. Cooper, executive producer of SCI FI Channel’s Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, confirmed to SCI FI Wire that he’s developing a third series with the working title Stargate Universe, but remained silent on the details. (The project has not yet been picked up by any network, including SCI FI Channel.)
“It’s being developed,” Cooper said in an interview on the Vancouver, Canada, set of the two series. “Not a lot to say at the moment, other than it’s … not the characters from SG-1 or Atlantis. It’s a completely third entity. The third series is born of the mythology that’s been established.”
SG-1 will draw to a close after 10 seasons with the episode titled “Unending,” airing June 22. Atlantis is currently finishing up its third season and will return with a fourth season later this year.
Thanks for posting this information. I was beginning to worry what I would do for my future Stargate fix. I so wanted to love this final season of SG1…but it hasn’t worked for me. The episodes in the Ori storyline are typically tight and enjoyable, the other episodes just seemed empty.
