The series seemed to be in danger for the past few weeks, but now it’s official. Today SyFy announced they have canceled Stargate Universe and will not renew the series for a third season. As of now this marks the end of the long-running series of TV adaptation which essentially created a Stargate franchise which all started with just one feature film in 1994. SyFy has really been killing the dreams of sci-fi TV fans this year, especially with their recent cancellation of Caprica and a seemingly mediocre American adaptation of Being Human taking up precious airtime instead. Surely plenty of longtime fans aren’t going to be happy about this, so feel free to sound off below.

UPDATE: As of now, Syfy plans on airing the last ten episodes early next year.  They had already been shot before today’s series cancellation.  That means the last episode is most likely going to end without resolution.

At the beginning of September, I was invited – along with a few others – to the Vancouver set of Stargate Universe.  While you may have thought I was done posting on set interviews, I’ve got one more and it’s with Elyse Levesque.

During the interview, Levesque talks about all the changes her character (Chloe Armstrong) goes through during season two.  In addition, we talked about filming on the incredible sets of the Destiny ship, what’s her process with getting scripts, and we even covered social media like Twitter and Facebook.  It’s a very relaxed interview that was done in one of the Destiny hallways. Check it out after the jump:

As a huge fan of SyFy’s Stargate SG-1 (particularly the Richard Dean-Anderson era), I was very much looking forward to Stargate Universe. The Stargate Atlantis spinoff had always seemed like it was trying to hard to be like its predecessor and Universe looked to be a great turnaround from that. The Lost and Battlestar Galactica-like vibes of the show, on paper, looked like it could work. Universe doesn’t begin to touch either of those shows, or even SG-1 for that matter, but the first season does make large strides towards creating its own identity in an already incredibly elaborate universe.  Hit the jump for my review of Stargate Universe.

If you read Collider, you know we’re big fans of Syfy’s Stargate Universe (which now airs Tuesday night’s). Unlike the previous Stargate shows, SGU is a lot darker and more intense.  Already this season, SGU has killed off a number of side characters and they’ve only aired three episodes.

Anyway, tonight’s episode of SGU, titled Pathogen, was directed by Robert Carlyle.  The logline is “The Destiny crew grows concerned when Chloe’s unusual behavior reveals possible Alien influence.”  However, when I spoke to Carlyle at Comic-Con and on set last month, he revealed tonight’s episode is very Eli (David Blue) centric.  He also said it was the first episode they filmed after getting back from hiatus.

We’re always running tons of interviews here at Collider, but this past week has been especially crazy.  When you pair all the interviews Steve did during his visit to the sets of The Thing and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, coupled with the number of interviews we run on a daily basis, there’s probably some stuff you may have missed.  With this in mind, we’ve created a handy catch-all recap article that contains links to every interview we’ve posted over the last week.  Here’s some of them, but hit the jump for the rest:

The Thing On Set Interviews

• Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje

If you’re a fan of Stargate Universe and wish you could walk around the Vancouver soundstages where they film the show, you’re going to love the video I edited together.  That’s because last month when I visited the set, executive producer and co-creator Brad Wright gave all a behind the scenes tour of the various soundstages to the visiting journalists.  He showed us the gate room, Eli’s room, all the hallways and rooms of the Destiny ship, the medical quarters, and the highlight: we got to see the brand new Bridge set that was built for season two!  Even though the bridge hasn’t been revealed on the show, you can see it right now after the jump.

And while getting to see the various soundstages was cool, I think the best part was getting to do the tour with Brad Wright.  That’s because as one of the creators of the show, Wright knows the secrets of every set and he revealed everything as we walked around.  I promise you…if you’re a fan of SGU, you will get to see a side of the Destiny ship that you have never seen on TV:

With Stargate Universe returning with new episodes on Tuesday, September 28 on Syfy,  I was invited – along with a few other online journalists – to visit the Vancouver set a few weeks ago. While on set I got to see a number of the SGU soundstages, interview the entire cast, and I was also able to check out the new Bridge set that was built for season two.  As a big fan of SGU, it was very cool to see the Destiny ship up close and also interview everyone who brings the show to life.

Over the past few days I’ve been posting some of the interviews I did on set (David Blue and Elyse Levesque, producer Brad Wright) and now it’s time for Robert Carlyle.  During the very revealing interview, Carlyle was very open about what’s coming up on show.  If you’re a fan of SGU, I think you’ll really enjoy hearing what he had to say.  Hit the jump for more:

Anyway, while on set I was able to speak with co-creator/writer/executive producer Brad Wright. Actually, I got to speak with him in the Gate room on the Destiny ship (which was very cool). During my exclusive interview we talked about what’s coming up on season 2, how far they’ve planned the show,  what other original Stargate characters are visiting SGU (he reveals McKay and Woolsey from Stargate Atlantis are stopping by) and so much more.  If you’re a fan of SGU, you’ll learn a lot about what’s coming up after the break:

Syfy has released a new trailer for Stargate Universe season 2 which premieres in its new time slot on Tuesday, September 28th at 9/8c.  If you’ve been waiting for a taste of what’s to come, the trailer has some very cool footage.  Hit the jump to check it out:

While I won’t write about the big spoilers I learned while there, I have no problem saying season two builds on the momentum of the first season and it’s heading towards a big revelation.  Trust me, by the end of season two, a lot of information about the Destiny will be revealed.  More after the jump:

Lost in space, low on supplies and morale, ready for in-fighting to do them all in at any moment, the reluctant crew of the Defiant searches for a way home and a means to survive the far reaches of space.  This is the overarching story of Stargate Universe.  A different direction for the Stargate franchise, it’s the characters (and thusly, the performances) that bring this series to life.  More after the jump:

At this year’s Comic-Con, I was able to speak with a few cast members of Syfy’s hit show Stargate Universe.  As I’ve said a few times, I never watched any of the previous Stargate shows, but I’ve been very impressed with SGU (Stargate Universe).  Since the show has only aired one full season and it doesn’t return until late September, I really recommend renting/buying the first season and catching up.  It’s absolutely worth it.

Anyway, over the last few days I posted my exclusive interviews with David Blue and Robert Carlyle, and tonight I’ve got the last one and it’s with Co-Creator/Writer/Executive Producer Robert Cooper. During the interview, Cooper talked about how SGU is different from the previous shows, do they have a five year plan, how far ahead have they scripted, he compares the next twenty episodes to the first twenty, what percentage of Destiny has been explored, he reveals some of the storylines of season two, and a lot more.  If you’re a fan of SGU, you’ll love the interview.  Hit the jump to check it out:

Anyway, last night I posted my interview with David Blue, and tonight I’ve got Robert Carlyle.  If you watch SGU, you know Carlyle plays Dr. Nicholas Rush and you’re never sure which side he’s on.  But that’s one of the reasons his character is so much fun…as you’re never sure what he’ll do.  During the interview, Carlyle talked about how he got involved in SGU, what’s coming up in season two (he definitely reveals a few spoilers), the pro’s and con’s of playing the same character and doing a TV show, what it’s like being at Comic-Con, and a lot more.  It’s a great interview so check it out after the jump:

Anyway, over the next few days I’ll be posting my SGU interviews, and up first is David Blue.  If you watch SGU, you know Blue plays Eli Wallace – the former slacker that’s a computer/mathematics/video game expert.  During the interview, Blue talks about being back at Comic-Con, his addiction to twitter, how has filming been going on season two and what can he reveal, how he prepares for each episode, and how has season two been different from season one.  Hit the jump to check it out:

The studios, networks, and production companies go all out for Comic-Con every year and SyFy is no different.  This year, not only did they bring the thunder with cast members and sneak peeks of their series and such for the panels, but they even went so far as to take over a Hard Rock cafe in downtown San Diego and turned it into their own Cafe Diem, where the menu is customized to include items like Lou Diamond Flapjacks (a play on words of Stargate Universe star Lou Diamond Phillips).  Though we can’t transport you to Cafe Diem, we can provide a look at all the Comic-Con trailers that SyFy brought to San Diego this year including Warehouse 13, Eureka, Stargate Universe, Sanctuary and Caprica:
