My gut feeling is telling me that SGA will likely meet the fate of SG-1. The ratings hasn't been good since there are these things call TiVO in this country call USA, apparently it's quite popular there. Instead the network trying find a solution take advantage of TiVO or trying to establish a reason why their network rating is in decline, they just try to find the cheapest cost cutting method, which is to cancel a show. Now I haven't seen many shows on SCI-FI, but I'm presuming that many of SCI-FI's original production aren't much better, in ratings or qualities. The Stargate franchise has one thing for it thought, a huge international fanbase. Sure I download the show since Australia is so much further behind, but I do buy the DVDs when they come out. SCI-FI really shouldn't ever had locked SG1 up for the 11th season so the producers couldn't make the show with another network. This deal probably has extended to SGA, so if it does get cancel, this would be it. Let's hope the new series that's currently in development find its way to another network that is more supportive other than SCI-FI.
