"See this is the problem when everyone is on Different seasons."
There is obviously going to be some intermarrying between SG-1 and Atlantis, so a thread about the one will from time to time contain spoilers about the other. And, to be honest, I don't understand why you'd even want to read about Atlantis yet, given your long history of superallergic reactions to spoilers for SG-1, so it seems to me that your problem has a simpler solution than you think.
Anyway (1), Simon's blurb was about SG-1's eighth season premiere, New Order, which has the system lords seeking an alliance with Earth against Baal, who's been promoted to Supreme Bad Guy since the death (well, semi-death) of Anubis and is now really evil and menacing and stuff.
Anyway (2), having watched Rising again, I'm a little puzzled why they (the folks back home) didn't just phone the Asgard, who should now be as snug as a bug in a rug with the Replicator threat gone, and ask them nicely to fly one of their hyperultrafast O'Neill's to the Pegasus galaxy and maybe beam down a ZPM or two, but I guess the show has to last at least a season.
Oh, and: matrix lights instead of fixed symbols? They look fancy, sure, but it doesn't smack of much Ancient-ism to me. But what do I know.

The Asgard are probably pretty busy cleaning up after the Replicator invasion of their new homeworld. Between that and them building it in the first place, they're probably pretty busy. Still, when Atlantis fails to check in, they'll probably wait a while before asking the Asgard to look in on them, but hopefully they'll have found a way back home by then - they are not likely to pull a Voyager here.
There's also the notion that the Asgard might not like us playing around with Ancient technology... They know just how dangerous it is, and that while SG-1 can be trusted not to do wrong, what about the whole Atlantis team? They may deliberately avoid phoning them before they've had a chance to find some cool stuff.

They're just afraid the Asgard will come and take over Atlantis.... ..and thta Thor will start in with the rectal probes again.

Did they ever show Loki, Hela or any negative Norse gods?
I'm waaaaay behind on Stargate (I only catch the syndicated episodes nightly- I work Friday nights).

Is he a little evil grey alien of just another human with glowy eyes?

I think he was rather mellow, but still sort of evil.

Was Burns ever into kidnapping people in their sleep and doing nasty genetic experiments on them in order to grow his own personal army of clones/save Springfield from extinction?

Little Grey Gay Assitant Alien: Well sir, we've finished the most recent round of anal probes. There were only three instances of insanity this time.
Loki: Eeexcellent.

I can just imagine an Asgard named Smithers...

If you look at some of the information for upcoming episodes, the sixth regular episode is entitled "Home", and will be guest-starring Don S. Davis (aka General Hammond). Sounds interesting.
I wonder if it's because of the Asgard that the SGC apparently doesn't want the Atlantis team to return to the Pegasus Galaxy? Or is it just going to be more home-grown political machinations?
