Sci Fi renews SG1, Atlantis

By David Speakman • October 24, 2005

Cable TV industry magazine MultiChannel News reports that the Sci Fi channel has renewed both Stargate: SG1 and spin-off series, Stargate Atlantis.

Although new episodes for the current season are scheduled to resume in January, episodes for next season are to debut in the summer of 2006 after the Memorial Day weekend.

This will mark the 10th season for Stargate: SG1 a (the second with Farscape's Ben Browder as the team leader) and the third season for Atlantis.

Marking a decade of continuous production, Stargate: SG1 becomes the longest-running American science fiction series ever and the second-longest-running series world-wide behind the BBC's storied Dr. Who.

SG1 has remained a ratings success for Sci Fi this year despite the loss of series star Richard Dean Anderson. With Browder as his replacement, the show continues to be a ratings high point for the cable network.

Both series are produced under Sony's MGM television division.

About the Author

David Speakman

David Speakman - known in fannish circles as Davodd - is recovering from almost 20 years as a professional writer and journalist in mainstream print and broadcasting. He recently "retired" from journalism, citing that too many mega-mergers caused news focus to shift from serving the public interest to serving up eyeballs to advertisers. Currently he works full time as a paralegal while attending night law school. A member of N3F on and off since 1984, David's fannish activities in recent days have been curtailed due to time and budget constraints of being a law school student; although he does manage to squeeze in episodes of Battlestar Galactica, issues of Weird Tales magazine and an odd superhero movie "now and then."
