I just saw a (very short) ad for the new “Stargate Universe” on SyFy. What’s the word on this? I unfortunately missed most of the final season of the original (how’d it end with the Ori?), and never really got into Atlantis. But I’m always interested in new shows, and was excited to see a few quick shots of this. Any word out there?

I think it’s basically “Star Trek” reloaded… comes out this fall
