Stargate: SG-1 has been cancelled. About time. This show has been on its last legs for a while. I'm sad that it's been on the air for so long that the finale will inevitably be about the Ori and the current mythology instead of any resolution I would have hoped for a few seasons ago.

My only worry is that Atlantis won't last too long without SG-1. I mean -- look at what happened to Angel.

I think, though, after last week's episode, that SG-1 should just do cracktastic episodes for the rest of the season. That was by far the best episode this season. They may have run out of dramatic material, but the crack never runs dry.

Do you think the finale will actually have the Furlings?

There's Murphy's Law; there's Godwin's Law; high time for a new law.

I propose Whedon's Law:
Any discussion of a genre TV show will inevitably invoke comparisons to Buffy.

Why? Because Buffy used and manipulated every genre convention there is. You name a standard plot line, Buffy did it. And what's more, the many creative minds behind Buffy always added something a little bit more, so that when you see that plot line again, you can't help but thinking of the Buffy episode and how much better done it was.

Case in point: ( Mindfuck you're not really a space explorer/slayer/superhero, you're insane episode? Did it )
