Devlin still trying to Get rights to make Stargate II and III *(Based off the original Stargate Movie, and not the SG1 Timeline).

MGM Drafts plans to Go "Public Ownership":
http://www.gateworld.net/news/2012/07/report-mgm-considering-public-ownership/

if the Public Ownership Happens, you can expect a real push by new owners to bring back Stargate Atlantis/Universe.

It's like a Firefly anything happening at this point...it would be nice, but I'm not even going to think about the possibility of maybe holding breath at some point in the future.

I dont think SGU will come back to tv but I am confident about Devlin making another SG feature film. The original film did very well at the box office after all.

I agree with panzer. Its been too long since SGU was anywhere near a prime slot. A real fricken shame there. It was the best SG series IMO. Even now I am watching again on pick TV here in UK.

What I don't get is how this show got dumped but yet its still being picked and re-run on various channels even though its an incomplete story. Honestly WTF.

I would dearly love to see the planned eps of SGU completed, but you would have to have a massive marketing campaign to re-launch the first two series.

As for movies. Yeah that could be good.

in other Stargate news,

I've been told that Stargate Worlds is still in Dev. But they are trying to find a developer to finish developing ( or funding to bring in Old CME Employee's).

Since when does winning awards always equal commercial/ratings success?

There are a ton of shows out there which have won awards that never had a big mainstream success or were cancelled after a season or two.

Ratings System is flawed,

it doesn't rate the show by how many people watch the show,
it rates the show by how many people watch the commercials.

So SyFy had #%&*$# commercials.
If we had more Victoria's Secret commercials I bet the ratings would be different.

Seeing as how SyFy is an ad based network, I can understand why the ratings only count people who watch the commercials.

For there to be any chance of SG:U returning to tv, it would have to return to a subscription based channel like HBO, Showtime, Starz.
