So, essentially, it boiled down (as it always does) to the bean-counters. Are we making enough money on it? Nope, it's unsustainable. Okay, cancel it and the viewers be d*mned...

Proud Staff MemberThe bad thing is the ratings system is broken, can't be fixed unless every available box/tv could report in viewers no matter how long it took (dvr users) views of a program...

Proud Staff MemberThat wouldn't matter to advertisers. Think about it. What good is a "Mazda Event" commercial three weeks after the event ended. Advertisers target time and date on their commercials. Unless the program is viewed within 36-48 of the original broadcast date, the recorded commercials have gone "stale" in the advertiser's minds, and they are the ones paying for it. So what they think counts.
THERE= a place. not here - THEIR= belongs to them - THEY'RE = short for "They Are". THEN = a point in time; not now. - THAN = used to compare things.
-If you tried 4 times to move forward, it was the FOURTH time you went FORTH! ---Something AFFECTS you. You have an EFFECT on something
Some one can win a MEDAL made of a METAL like gold for showing his METTLE (courage)
If something is LOOSE you might LOSE it. Your=belongs to "you" You're short for "you are"
You file a suit in court. You wear a suit in court. You stay in a suite at the hotel. You sweat it out. Victory is sweet!
If two sets of twin brothers have a gunfight, you have a Dual Duel
MUTE=Silent, unable to talk. MOOT= No loger relevant or important. "A mute points out a moot point."

Sadly, very true. If the advertisers don't think they're being seen, the execs get pressure to move the show around to other days/times. IMO, Monday and Tuesday nights just aren't a good fit for what Syfy offers when they're up against the big network's "heavy hitters". I'd been watching Scifi/Syfy on Friday nights since they picked up SG1 from Showtime. My longest Scifi stint was the Friday night trifecta of SG1/SGA/BSG. That was something I really looked forward to. If they had W13/Sanctuary/SGU on Fridays, they'd still have me as a Friday night viewer. As it is now, I watch Syfy for an hour (well, it's down to an hour now) on Mondays and that's it for the entire week...

Actually after further reflection, the last episode was a good way to end the series if it had to end. The ship jumping for 3+ years alone in the dark like it had done for the last million years...
SGU's downfall is that they did not have wrestling stars make guest appearances every week as a tie in... I wonder why SyFy never thought of it?

Some seriously interesting ideas there that could've made for some great SGU...
