Where was all this hostility? Why are you taking your toys and going home? I guess the world will never know. I am sorry that comparing Stargate SG1 to shows like Hercules and Xena (yes with a X you got me) was considered a personal insult, do you work on the show do you pay for the show? How was my opinion to not like a show a considered hostility, are the people who are anti- Sci Fi being hostile to you or the channel? I am freely allowed to state my opinon and I am freely allowed to have a different opinon, you can argue my opinon but you can't say I am wrong because your opinon is better. I don't think you were looking for a honest discussion because that is what you got, nobody attacked you (unless you are Stargate SG1 and then I appologise for comparing you with two shows that were much more popular in their time and several shows that were not). I stated that those were my opinons and I am allowed to not like a TV show. Sorry you left it's hard to find somebody to take Sci Fi channels side in these discussions.By the way work has started on a Motion Picture based on Xena warrior princess, I think that any comparison with that show should now be seen as a positive. I don't know how many fans Stargate has but am pretty sure that if it got canncelled there would be no National movement to try and save it, that was my whole point, Farscape generated a highly loyal and dedicated fanbase much like Babylon 5 did and much like Star Trek did and continues to do. Sci Fi channel tanked Farscape it is pretty obvious, it went from the networks no 1 show to being lucky to catch. yes serialization might of stopped new fans but it does with a lot of shows that stay sucessful, you know how you combat that, you show it alot more so people can see old episodes and catch up, like they are doing with Stargate SG1 and like they used to do with Farscape. Why I am mad at Sci Fi is for statements like this one "If all of those incredible fans who wrote in and sent notes and flowers and [whatnot] had actually watched it every week, we would have been able to do the 22." So all the people who wrote in were liars they didn't actually watch the show and it is all their fault? Yea it's the fans fault, it's not Sci Fi's fault we would of loved to keep it but you fans just wouldn't watch it, you say you did and you want to save it but it's obvious by the numbers that you are liars. If that isn't a vieled insult I don't know what is, yes ratings were down the show got moved around and twisted in the wind, but it's strange that it went from being their number one show ever to being so bad it is not worth saving in 6 to 7 weeks, gee when most channels move a popular show to a new timeslot and the ratings take a mild dip they try to advertise to let people know or sometimes try to find a better slot to get the ratings back, Sci Fi pulled the plug before they even made midseason, but they kept it quiet.......................and we are all crazy and blinded by our love of the show? I think that is a little fishy myself. Yea the show is cancelled and they will not change their minds, they are revamping the channel to get away from space shows (gee that right there should of been a big clue something was fishy). my life will go on, it's just the way it goes. I was not even one of the fanatical fans, I din't give money or sign petitions, I sent one e-mail to Sci Fi expressing my distain that was answered by a form letter thanking me for my fan mail (which shows they didn't even read my e-mail). That was it, I don't see where I am blinded to what happened and I am sorry I don't like Stargate (if it makes any difference I can lie and say I do).</blockquote>
