A production source informs GateWorld that the new series is in the concept phase, and is being actively worked on by the Vancouver creatives behind Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis. No concept for the show has yet been revealed.
The third TV series is also not likely to be rushed into production for a 2007 premiere in order to replace SG-1, which takes its final bow with 10 new episodes this spring. Instead, a premiere in 2008 or later is more likely at this point. (Note that, at this time in the fall of 2003, Stargate Atlantis was well into casting, script-writing, and set-building to make a July premiere date.)
Following the success of the 1994 film "Stargate," Stargate SG-1 debuted in 1997, and spun off Stargate Atlantis in 2004. The two shows return to SCI FI Channel in the U.S. with new episodes in April. The spring run of 10 episodes each will mark the series finale of SG-1, and the third season finale of Atlantis.
Stargate Atlantis returns for its fourth season later in 2007.
Meanwhile, SG-1 will continue with two movies, presumably direct-to-DVD, currently aiming for a fall 2007 release.
Stick with GateWorld for full coverage of the third Stargate series as news develops!
I read about this lastnight, along with another post that Michael Shanks would be the Lead as Dr Daniel Jackson, however the latter has been unfounded. We Michael Shanks Fans can still hope!

Very interesting!!! ;D
Yeah, I hope that Jackson, Mitchell and Vala are all in the new series in some way. Or, it would be nice to FINALLY see Daniel get to do some research on Atlantis. I know he's been there briefly looking for the Ancient weapon, but come on, give the poor guy a break, hehe.
Maybe we can have Sam and Daniel on Atlantis and Cam and Vala on the new show. (C'mon! Give poor Claudia Black and Ben Browder a freakin' BREAK! Stop cancelling their shows!)

I hope that either Teal'c or Jackson are in the new series And myself of course
P.S. Carter is joining the Atlantis cast for season 4
Those movies must be awesome.
Finally
Should have ended after Mr Anderson decided to make just a casual appearance on the show
Has been mostly a dud since moving over to the Sci-Fi Channel anyway
Teal'c P.I.
"Indeed!"
The most important part of reading is reading between the lines.

I am used to all the peoples in SG-1, so seeing any again will always be welcome.
Dunno about Atlantis, I have nothing against...but I still have to find it...interesting. *hide from flaming*

I would like to watch that "ag-aine"...
Honestly, If Carter and Jackson joined Atlantis... Ohhh buddy I would make it a point to watch that show. As it is now... It's good, but, McKay is the best part of the show... I mean, come on, any guy that says, "It's ok because I remember how to use DOS." when in an alien ship rocks the house!
I as well miss RDA's sense of humor and I'm glad that he demanded it be part of his role on SG1... GO RDA!

I love Stargate, but they're gonna water down at this rate. I think they need to focus their energies on making Atlantis a success instead of spinning off yet again.
We saw Paramount make the same mistake with the Star Trek series. At one point you went from TNG (excellent all the way through once they killed Tasha, gave Riker a beard, and stopped changing Worf's face every 3 episodes) to DS9(eh at first, became mildly interesting towards the end as the writers got a burst of creativity) to Voyager (pretty good for a while; jumped the shark once they decided to "sex" it up and add Hottie of Borg) to Enterprise (complete frickin' flop, but hey at least the intro song was good) nonstop. Burned the writers out, stifled new ideas. Enterprise's biggest failure was that most of the storylines were just rehashes or slightly altered versions of stories from other Trek series'. SG-1 jumped the shark when they promoted RDA to general and had him phone in a season, and it's been downhill from there. Atlantis has largely languished (though I happen to like the show) but has enough potential if they put all their energies into it to make it a smash.
I don't want my beloved franchise watered down, and this announcement just reaks of trying to bleed every nickel they can out of the franchise as quickly as possible. Which usually results in a ruined franchise.
Their in pre-production now for the movies, I think their scheduled to start shooting in a few months.
Plus I've seen the rest of the season for Atlantis, it ROCKS!!!! What they should do is just focus all their efforts onto that.
Just how I feel
Alantis is on its own side, SG-1 has been disbanded for really a while now. They should have a show that doesnt focus on any particular SG group. It should explain and tell about the entire universe of stargate. From some scientists on Planet B to another culture on planet C.
huh, so how are they gonna do this, is it going to play off 1 of the 2 like when atlantis played of SG-1
