"And those poor bastards on Destiny were never heard from again."I am hoping to see some kind of resolution to the SGU ending.

Them going the BSG route is to me what cancelled the show.. SG1, Atlantis Campy fun actions. Universe, BSG Glume and doom. It didn't work.If you had enough you could do something different based on the rough premise -- the BSG route, but in my opinion modern TV production realities would never allow it to generate enough (20+ episodes a year for a couple of years) to outshine its earlier brethren, so I think a continuation is the best move.
I will accept this only if O'Neill says the line."Somehow the Destiny crew got back home"

Granted, Stargate doesn't have a steady run of novels, comics and audio dramas keeping the flame lit during this era like Doctor Who had.
Just because of what you said, I thought it might get canceled after the first few seasons. Of course, if they see it as a valuable intellectual property for television, they could keep it going. But of course, I think it would depend on how high the viewership is.A thought has occurred to me, though to start with I'm working off the assumption this show will premiere in 2027 based on the fact there's usually a year and a half to two years between these kind of shows being announced and premiering. Anyway, assuming a 2027 premiere, that will mean this show will be premiering sixteen years after the franchise's retirement if you will with the end of SGU. Sixteen years is also the length of Doctor Who's "Wilderness Years" the period between the show "going on hiatus" with the end of Sylvester McCoy's run in 1989 and the show's revival with Christopher Eccleston in 2005. To further this parallel, Stargate had a brief respite from with the release of Stargate Origins in 2018, seven years into the franchise's period of dormancy, just as Doctor Who had the 1996 TV movie seven years into the Wilderness Years.

One thing that will make me turn off the show and never watch it is to have original cast members return in the first episode only to have them killed off so I new team can take over. I would be cool with a new cast and new team or with some original members returning in cameos though.
I could work with either. People die especially in the armed services.One thing that will make me turn off the show and never watch it is to have original cast members return in the first episode only to have them killed off so I new team can take over.

Is 'Wanker" really that bad of an insult across the Pond?Ted Lasso got away with the word "Wanker", which I think is a better insult.

What makes you say that? If we continue to follow the Doctor Who parallels then that means we should get at least another 15 seasons, and 4 more spin-offs.Just because of what you said, I thought it might get canceled after the first few seasons.

There was also a comics publisher that did series of comics that continued the stories of Atlantis and Universe after the TV series a few years ago.There was a pretty active line of novels from Fandemonium in the UK, published pretty steadily from 2004-2019. So the "keeping the flame lit" era lasted for about 8 years.
Generally speaking, I hate murdering old leads (or having them die randomly, such as in a plane crash). Just let them move on, retire, or pass on from old age (or heroically). Most of the time. Uglier ends should only happen when they’re thematically appropriate.I agree, I am tired of bringing back characters only to kill them off. If a previous lead is getting up there, has health issues and it's just becoming too difficult to even do much more cameos, then kill the character off; either by murder or simply the character passing away peacefully.
