MARTIN WOOD was with the Stargate franchise since he was an assistant director back in the first season of SG-1. He directed dozens of episodes of SG-1 and Atlantis before moving on to Sanctuary. But he was with Stargate co-creator Brad Wright when he learned that Syfy Channel had cancelled the franchise's third installment: STARGATE UNIVERSE.
In this conversation with "Dial the Gate" Martin tells the story of where the producers were when they learned that SGU was ending after only two years ... and why they didn't want to tell the cast right away. Wood also talks about his own path to filmmaking, and becoming an A.D. on Stargate in 1997.
This clip is from Dial the Gate's full-length, 80-minute conversation with Martin. Watch the full interview here: • 011: Martin Wood, Star...

I think Eli used the ancient chair instead. That's how he survived the journey. And also learned so much about Destiny and the ancients that he became a completely different guy when they all woke up. He became Rush and Young and more. He became the new leader of Destiny, by resolving the conflict between the two sides.

@@nautilosad6024 Not a bad premise. I had a similar idea about Dr Franklin, the guy who sat in the chair an allegedly died. This earlier ancient database would be smaller than the one O'Niell had but the upload is probably a lot more primitive and a rougher ride so even if a modern human could handle the info dump better than O'Niell's the upload itself is probably more like getting a pineapple jammed up your nose. A thing like that has gotta make someone twitchy, maybe panicky and running on pure instinct unconsciously accessing ancient knowledge to duck through a service hatch and hide between moments of lucidity when he might approach someone just as we saw what we thought was a "projection" of Franklin on the bridge trying to warn Rush about the superrotation that ended up making the shuttle crash. Only he didn't disappear because he's a projection but a twitchy half-ancient who keeps retreating to the service ducts they don't know are there...

I am a huge fan of Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis but never got around to watching Universe until just within the last few months. The first season played almost like the stock market up and down up and down and there were points where I was not going to watch the rest of the episodes. But the second season was not only intriguing but held my attention and there were so many possibilities that the show could go that it was very disappointing when all the episodes came to an end. I thought though that the end of the show was very well done, giving it a sort of end but leaving everything open in case the show is ever picked back up

I will always believe it was the failure to get enough of the existing fans to feel invested that did it in. There was a huge amount of carry-over from SG1 to Atlantis both in storyline searching for the Lost City and characters from Weir who was head of the SGC a full season to Rodney and a few others from day one. There was deep continuity along with the superficial similarities in tone and humor. The producers wanted to do something new but as different as the approach for SGU was I'm sure it would've helped to draw from existing background characters and actors to bridge the gap that the show lost so many of the whiniest fans in without ever giving it a chance imo.

As someone who very much hated Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universe I can agree that going out of your way to cancel something you don't like is incredibly toxic. I well understood the kind of audience SGU was for and that it was intended for something closer to Battlestar Galactica 2.0 fans rather than original SG1 fans and while I wasn't happy about that I understood why it was being done. That being said, I do think the show failed on its own merits. It's ratings and viewership was terrible from the beginning and only ever got worse as time went on and it was incredibly expensive. I think they made a mistake on the tone of SGU. I think they produced something that the bulk of the Stargate fan base wasn't asking for.

During the last year I've re-watched SG1 and Atlantis. I haven't bothered with SGU and I couldn't even finish it the first time. For me it failed because Atlantis was cancelled so it could be made and then as a series it was so tonally different from the other two Stargate series that it upset a lot of the original fans. From what I remember it was slow, boring, unexciting and the body swapping stones concept was ridiculous. The Stargate concept was for a sci-fi action and adventure series with great characters and humor; I'm afraid SGU had none of that.

SGU was doomed to begin with because of a variety of factors: -Salty fans upset about Atlantis already wanted the show to fail out of spite. -Choosing to go dark drama/survival in a traditionally light hearted action/adventure franchise was off putting for some fans. -It was a transitioning time for television because streaming shows online was just getting popular and many studios like Syfy fought tooth and nail against it. Studios just didn't get it that time of families and friends getting together on the couch to watch shows as they aired was over and streaming shows at your convenience was the new thing. If SGU was aired now, I'd say it would have done far better with viewership. I admit the show is a little rough to get into at first but the show and the crew grow on you. I miss SGU.

I'd add the lack of setup in the established series. Major Lorne from SGA was introduced a few seasons before SGA even started in what was otherwise a one-off role in the SG1 ep with the Una's and the Naquada mine. Rodney was established as was Dr Weir even if the actress was switched out. The Lost City was a theme of a full season and change of SG1. There were even more SG1 characters in the first half of the SGA pilot than a lot of actual SG1 episodes had. Especially considering the change of tone they really should've done at least as much to setup the new series within the old. Then we could've got to see characters like Greer and Scott in the background and seen the falling out between Young and Telford if without the full story before Icarus base was set up. All we really got instead was a too obscure throwaway line in SGA about the Odyssey being on a hush-hush mission that turned out to be scouting candidate worlds for Icarus. Even SG1 arguably had more crossover from the theatrical film to the series pilot.

That experience has served to remind me just why I love SG-1 and Atlantis so dearly. After so many years of clearly understanding the SG-1 and Atlantis recipes for success, I have no idea what would possess the show runners to create something so radically divergent. In my heart I will always believe that it wasn’t their idea. I will believe, and continue to believe, that it was the direct result of relentless pressure from the Syfy (Sci-Fi) channel.

On the whole, I thought SGU was a brilliant change of direction, and way more "realistic" than the others, in terms of emotions and vulnerability. The whole saga with the other people gating into the ship was just OTT rubbish. So long for us to find a planet capable of dialing when we had the information from Atlantis... And then they steal the information... They should have continued to focus on internal character development, and the struggles of surviving and living on a super old ship, where they didn't know where they were.

They took the best sci-fi show ever and turned it into a soap opera. Dr.Rush was just an annoying character to create uninteresting drama on the ship.

Thank you. Pretty much my exact feelings. Every episode was an exhausting groan of "oh no, nerd boy likes girl but she immediately jumps into bed with jarhead bigshot" "jarhead bland boy had a kid with someone else before and has religious whining" "jarhead has a jarhead buddy with anger issues" "anger Issues and Jarhead has a commander who slept with hot feild medic soldier girl and she is now pregnant" "commander man has a wife at home but while body swaps sleeps with her then original body owner now sleeps with wife" Bleh... make it stop. Friggin Days of our Space Lives...

Heh, I thought Rush and Greer were the only interesting characters. What really bothered me was "the military is always right" attitude.

for the most part i did like sgu however my main problems with the show was: too much emotional drama shit for characters i don't give a fuck about. there is a good reason why sg1 and star treks leave the emotional drama stuff to later seasons. because in the first 5 seasons you become attached to the characters and care about the emotional stuff more because of that attachment to the character. but when you put that emotional drama shit in season 1 and 2 it is really bad because i don't give a fuck. also it was way to prevelant and used way to much as filler and takes away from the story. there is a reason why star trek and stargate are compared, it's because they both think of a moral problem and try to integrate it into a show within the universe of both of those stories.

I liked the idea of the mythology of Universe, but didn't like the execution. Took waaay too long to give us answers, way too many open endings, the dark and loss of humour set it too much apart from the rest of the SG-1/Atlantis shows. I still watched it coz I wanted to be hopeful it would get somewhere, but didn't enjoy it as much as I did the first 2.

There's a lot of people who didn't like SGU because it wasn't like the rest of the two SG shows. Well ... guys ... it wasn't meant for you. SGU was more like Battlestar Galactica. More drama. Less cringe jokes. I really miss the show.

SGU was a good story with serious potential. Too bad it was cancelled. Thats the problem with left brained studio execs. No imagination and wasteful of potential. I hope it is restored one day.

SGU was total crap. They tried to shove a Body Swapping Cheating Political Drama to an audience that is Action Adventure. Of Course it Failed. I cant even watch it. If you guys stuck to the mythology and the hole mystery and left all of the political crap out of it it would have lasted. We called it back in the day, Battle Gate: Voyager.

SG-U failed because it removed all the good parts that made SG-1 and SG-A good. Then it took all the bad things in SG-1 and SG-A and turned it up to 11. The good parts it removed was the light hearted banter between cast members and the joy of a show that didn't take itself to seriously. What it left in was the political garbage that everyone hated and sowed distrust between cast members. There where no good guys; there where no bad guys, just dark political inspired garbage. Basically the show lost complete touch with its fan base and tried to be a battlestar galactica when nobody watching it wanted battlestar galactica.
