So basically, edgy and young and hip like three trillion other stupid little shows on TV, with girls bursting out of their uniforms and boys clean cut and wholesome. There will be a "bad boy", who wears leather and prowls around in the background. And the goodie little two shoes girl with big Bambi eyes. And the hero, of course, how could we forget, the tough, seasoned, clean-cut military type with the chiseled jaw and the earnest eyes. And they'll be Lost In Space, so they have to rely on each other (and give one another goo-goo eyes, we musn't forget the eyes, because that's how Stargate has gotten by this far in the relationship department), and be Efficient and Young and Totally With It.
And of course, because they are catering to a younger crowd (regardless of the fact that many of my SGA-lovin' girlfriends on LJ are still in their teens/very early twenties -- myself included, being 25), they will screw the older, mature female fanbase that has supported the show, gone to the conventions, bought their shit, consistently kept their numbers high, and oh, yes, made them an indecent amount of money.
I love how the article you posted has this feeling of, "Don't worry, Stargate fans, Stargate Universe is coming, we'll give you your fix soon!".
