Stargate Talk From Alaina Huffman and Julia Benson

Kurt Wagner got a chance to interview Alain Huffman and Julia Benson about the end of Stargate Universe. The two of them express dismay that the series had to end without a proper conclusion, feeling the fanbase deserved a series finale if not another season. Despite the unfortunate cancellation, they feel they had a good two seasons. The cast still keeps in touch even though they’ve all moved on to different projects.
Benson mentions that she’s doing a Syfy movie called Earth’s Final Hours. She and her husband are working on a half-hour comedy pilot for BBC. They’ll decide which of the many BBCs the show will air once the pilot is ready to be shopped around. Apparently, the two of them have a lot of great ideas and always have something they are working on. Sounds like they make a great couple creatively.

As for Huffman, she has been picking and choosing her projects more carefully these days. She’s six months pregnant with her fourth child, so she needs to take things easy. She just appeared in the latest episode of Alphas, “Bill and Gary’s Excellent Adventure.” She kicked butt in the episode, wielding a gun around like a pro.
Before the end of the interview. Huffman and Benson talk about why SGU failed. Huffman blames the shows airing time, thinking they would have done better if it aired during the summer months. It doesn’t help that the seasons get split in halves with months in between each half. Whatever the reason for the show’s cancellation, it is what it is and there’s nothing to do now but move on, like Benson and Huffman have.
