Yes, that episode of SGU was definitely a season finale not a series finale.
Xander: Look who's got a bad case of Dark Prince envy. Dracula: Leave us. Xander: No, we're not going to "Leabbb you." And where'd you get that accent, Sesame Street? "One, Two, Three - three victims! Maw ha ha!"

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Are you sure, Theresa? Everything I've been reading says they were cancelled with this already in the can.
It probably was. I have no idea, but I would think for special effects, they would have to have filming done way ahead of scheduled air dates. I would have thought that they knew they were at low numbers a long time ago though and could therefore change to a series end story for season two with an escape plan if the impossible happened and they were renewed.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
SGU: Is "Gauntlet" the last episode or is there one that hasn't shown up On Demand yet? I'm watching "Gauntlet" right now.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
"Gauntlet" isn't the worst last episode a series could have. There's room for hope. Unlike, say, BSG or Angel.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But they survived the end of Angel, so there was room for hope.

I love the Angel ending. Fighting the good fight, come what may and all that.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I just took a ticket order from Donna Noble. She was American, though, and I restrained my "wait, what?" response.
