From a Q&A with Joe Flanigan on the Hungarian Stargatewebsite.
Philip: Hey Joe! I'm a big fan of the Stargate series and i have 2 questions for you: 1. Will you take part in Stargate Universe? 2. If you had the chance would you take part in Stargate Atlantis again?
Joe F: 1. Will you take part in Stargate Universe? No. 2. If you had the chance would you take part in Stargate Atlantis again? Probably. I miss my cast members and the crew. There is a lot of unexplored elements left for Atlantis. Personally I think it could have easily gone for another 5 years. No one is really certain why it was cancelled. Every producer/executive lays the blame on the other so it’s becomes impossible to understand the true reasons. I think our cast did a truly amazing job in helping build a succesfull franchise, but I don’t think that it is seen that way by the writers and producers. If Universe is successful, the prevailing theory among the writers and producers will be that actors are dispensible and not a critical part of the show. Only time will tell. I don’t know about you, but I think there are a lot of crappy shows on the air and I really appreciate good acting and interesting characters more than formulaic and procedural dramas.
WE'RE BITTER TOO JOE!
It's a pretty decent Q&A: linky
