http://twitter.com/Syfy just tweeted "Syfy will end its original action-adventure series Stargate Universe when the show returns with the final 10 episodes of its second season in the Spring of 2011."

So Syfy fulfilled it's original contractual obligation and nothing more, I'm utterly shocked.

They probably would've killed it at the end of Season One if not for that contract. The ratings just kept sinking, and the bad reviews just kept coming.

The cast is also apparently receiving the news that they're out of a job via Twitter. Charming.

LOL! Ah, man, I do love seeing Wright get his just desserts, I'm just sorry the cast and crew got caught in the fall out.

And yeah, he and his pack of idiots will try to blame the fans instead of, y'know, blaming the fact that they produced a crappy show.

Also, since when is being able to tell the difference between crap and quality a *bad* thing? And why is hating crap considered some sort of character flaw? I would hope people would hate crap. I certainly don't think much of people who can't tell the difference or who like the crap (guilty pleasures being the exception - we all have them).
