So while, like some people rightfully point out, it's cruel to laugh at the demise of a show because there're tons of people involved who work tirelessly to put it on the air, and we agree! It's a tragedy when something you worked hard at goes down the tubes.

But we at FG feel totally awesome about making fun of dicks, so we're not going to lie: news that Stargate: Universe was canceled was met by general Numfar Doing The Dance of Joy in the FG staff office.

There're a lot of legitimate reasons for us to feel vindicated, I think, if we push aside all politeness and good behavior. SGA was deep-sixed so SGU could live, and live on splendidly with a lot more money and care than SGA was ever afforded. And once the fans took issue with having their series seemingly sacrificed for a replacement that seemed to flout a lot of what had made Stargate one of the longest-lasting franchises in scifi/fantasy, the producers decided to start shit:



Recognizing that nobody likes being slammed on the internet, the best course of action here would have been to (a) continue to work hard to make the project you claim to believe in wholeheartedly, nose to the grindstone and all that, (b) console yourself by napping on your mattress stuffed with hundreds, and (c) not trolling the comments of a newspaper reporter what is wrong with you?

Look, I, at least, am sad to be temporarily living in a world without a Stargate franchise. The idea of a giant space vagina that could show you both the wonderful and terrible was always something of deep Freudian interest to us (okay: me), and I am interested to see if there are other iterations of this series out there -- but for the moment, let me do this on behalf of the actors and fans who felt, justified or otherwise, totally betrayed:

Naturally, the next thing I thought was, Zelenka v Tyson, Throwdown.
