Premiere weeks 2009, part 2 – SGU and Clone Wars

Before jumping into the new stuff, just a quick note on the second episodes of shows that started last week…

GateWorld – SCI FI confirms Atlantis cancellation, TV movie

Stargate: Atlantis has been cancelled. The show will run through its 100th episode in January 2009 and end on a cliffhanger, which will be resolved by a 2-hour movie.

So basically, this is the new way the studios want to handle their successful franchises – run the series for a while, then make a few DVDs. I suppose I can’t blame them. The formula worked for . . . → Read More: Stargate to die a slow, painful death

Stargate Atlantis’s newest recurring guest star is ready for the show’s fourth season, which enters production this February in Vancouver, British Columbia. Jewel Staite recently discussed her casting on the series and her new character at her blog.

So Jewel Staite (‘Kaylee’ from the series Firefly) is playing a doctor in the next season of Stargate Atlantis. She won’t be a regular, but will be a recurring character. . . . → Read More: Paging Dr. Kaylee!
