SG-1 worked well because of the fanbase, because of the original concept, and the wonderful team of writers working with such a fantastic story such as this. Cue the spin-off SGA - working within an idea in the original series - fans are nervous about a new cast and story. And yet, SUCCESS! Perhaps it was because of the character similarities that really payed off (Teal'c=Ronon, for instance, with some difference, but a LOT of similarities) or the literal worlds of possibilities, but the franchise has gripped us since '94 - the emergence of the movie that started it all. They've done well so far.

The more I think about it, the more I feel convinced that it can be done, despite a completely skeptical fan base to please and a confined setting as opposed to the past. The idea sounds like an "edge of your seat" thrill, but as I feel like I must repeat - we're talking about an idea that can go in a thousand directions. The gate opens - the world is no longer what we knew. And what now? Excitement! I feel that the only downfall may be an incredibly short run in store... but... I just can't help but be a little hopeful =3

I also feel comforted when I see that Jack and Daniel and Sam will all make a guest appearance... It's as if they give a sort of approval to the upcoming series by partaking in it.

But, well... we've got until October until we will truly know! <3
