    Diese Theorie wurde hier im Forum schon öfter erwähnt, und da es zwei Serien betrifft, habe ich es mal in dieses Forum gepostet und nicht in die entsprechen SerienForen.
    Auf GateWorld.net ist folgender Bericht erschienen:

    Hammer explains Farscape cancellation
    JANUARY 7, 2003

    Is Stargate SG-1 to blame for The Sci-Fi Channel's cancelling of Farscape, its longest-running original series? No, according to network president Bonnie Hammer -- it was the numbers.

    In an interview with TV Guide Online, Hammer spoke out about the reason why Sci-Fi cancelled SG-1's partner series. "We never wanted to cancel it. What we were trying to do was do 13 more episodes, not 22. The ratings had softened, and it was getting increasingly expensive to produce. We just couldn't make the financial deal. But we never wanted it to end when it ended."

    But why cancel Farscape, while renewing network newcomer Stargate for a seventh season? "Take a look at our numbers on Monday nights just for the Stargate repeats. It's crazy! Before we ended the season on Stargate, we were getting a very high 1 [rating] and peaked at, I think, a 2 or a 2.1. That was for new, original episodes. [Now] our average for Stargate repeats has been unbelievable -- 1.7 and 1.8 [ratings]."

    "When Farscape was repeating, we were lucky if we got a .8. So there's a huge difference."

    As to why she thinks Stargate has broader appeal, Hammer explained: "Even though Stargate is sci-fi, it's very broad sci-fi. It's not serialized. Every episode, you can come to it whether you've watched the one before [or not]. ... Farscape had brilliant and sophisticated writing, but it was so narrow that it basically was an invitation to not tune in if you weren't totally familiar with the show. It was brilliant when you got it, and some of the characterizations were truly amazing, but it took a little too much work."

    The final 11 episodes of Farscape air Fridays at 8 p.m. Eastern / Pacific, starting this week! Rumor has it that the network may give the show a second look if its ratings for the final episodes justify it. Be sure to tune in!

    The Jim Henson Company, which owns and produces the show, is also rumored to be producing a Farscape feature film and an anime Farscape series.
    Wenn man der Dame glaubt, dann ist das ja vieleicht ein Grund für unsere Farscape Fans ihren Hass auf Stargate abzulegen, da die Einstellung von Farscape nicht im Zusammenhang mit der siebten Staffel von Stargate steht.

    Naja, sieh dir das Topic an: http://forum.spacepub.net/index.php?act=S...&f=13&t=1321&s=

    Miss Hammer bezeichnet da das Skiffy Publikum als zu dumm um einer Serie wie Farscape zu folgen.
    Sorry aber inwieweit DAS so ganz koscher is..
    Oh Stars, listen to our plea
    as our lives are but short.
    Our wish is that you will guide us
    to you when we meet our end.
