Surely it ran consecutively from 1963 to 1989, non-consecutively from 1963 to 2006+?

The GBR is a bit anal about these things, and don't like it when one record is a superset of another record, so rule that because it had a break it makes it a non-consecutive show, and is disqualified from the consecutive record. That's what Norris McWhirter said, so it must be true.

Well yes. I dont think its being that anal about it. Is Doctor Who a consecutively running series? No. So it cant be the longest consecutively running sci fi. It was, but then it had a break, so now it isnt. If you start taking subsets for the records it all gets a bit silly ('ooh, but when X Files' last episode aired, that was the longest running, so it should get "Longest running at the point the program stopped airing" record!')

I tried to watch Ark of Truth the other night. (I only got to about season 7 in SG1)

The sets looked cheap and there were annoying people in it I didn't know. Don't really want to catch up with it if that's the direction it went in.

Ark of Truth = Fail. The other straight to DVD film isn't too bad though.
But yeah, you've not missed much over the last few seasons. Atlantis is quite fun though.

I've seen the start of the first series of that, didn't like having to get to know all the new characters at first, but at least it looks as though they spent proper money on it.

Universe will attempt to appeal to a broader audience, drawing new viewers into the Stargate world. The show will be "a little more character-based, a little less rooted in a sci-fi mythology,"

FAIL. :bored:


I've always thought a MMONG of this could work well, I'd buy it even if it was shit.

I think they tried to make a few and mostly failed.

They're making an MMO, it looks shit.
