For the better part of the last 10 years my favorite television show has been Stargate SG-1. More than any other show, I have enjoyed the adventures of Jack O'Neill and company. Last fall after this fantastic show reached the milestone of becoming the longest continuous SciFi show in US television history, the SciFi Channel & NBC cancelled my beloved show. Stargate fans around the world were shocked. Yes, the show had lost audience with the departure of lead Richard Dean Anderson but there was still life left in her. One has only to check the internet and find out just how popular this show really is. There are thousands of sites devoted to the show. Ebay has 100's of pages devoted to items for the show. Like Star Trek, Stargate has a worldwide fanbase and quite possibly is more popular around the world than it is in the US.
With the cancellation, MGM (the owner of the show) announced 2 straight to DVD movies would be made starting in April, 2007. The first movie will bring an end to the current storyline regarding the ORI and (and here's the best part) the second movie will star Richard Dean Anderson. I can't tell you how excited I am to learn that Jack O'Neill will be back protecting the planet along with Samantha Carter, Teal'c & Daniel Jackson! All seems right with the world today!!!!
