Maybe the ninth chevron is what changed the wormhole effect to the Atlantis effect? Actually maybe that is what dialling Atlantis did!?! Upgraded the software.

Rumor has it we're going to see the Furlings in episode 200. Dunno if that's accurate or not....

NO ONE on the production staff of the show wants to see the Furlings. It hasn't even been mentioned in four years. The current show runners inherited it from the first season guys when they thought it would be cool - note that a LOT of stuff from the first three seasons haven't been seen since the changeover, including the Nox and Aris Boch.
Spoilers for episode 200 don't suggest that we will see the Furlings. At least, not the REAL Furlings...

Okay, I can understand why they don't want to bring back the Nox again... but why would they have something against some faceless species that we know next to nothing about? They've been mentioned only twice for goodness' sakes!

But it ads to the rich tapestry that is Stargate. It'd be nice to see that the Nox and the Furlings have some sort of role in the grand scheme of things.
I always thought that each of the "four races" had something different to offer... The Nox were more the healers - they did their work by hiding. They were clearly on Earth as they have influcenced Faerie mythology. It would be interesting if they had a tie in with the Arthur arc.

P.S. Who are the two differen't "powers that be" between season 1-3 and 4-10?
Why ignore 60 hours of SG1??
How do you know so much about the production staff Mark - are you ON the production staff? You always seem to have little inside tid-bits.
Was Aris Boch that bounty hunter guy? I felt he was pretty much a one off.
It'd be interesting to see if the Tollana are REALLY wiped out? How they would also feel with Earth given superior technology - i.e. in the way of Goa'uld, Tok'ra, Asgard and Ancient technology?
What about the water creature from Fire and Water, y'know "Omoroca!!"

I know folks on the production staff, actors on the show, and I do indeed read credits and listen to the excellent DVD commentaries. Moreover, I also read the websites that publish way more tidbits than I can grope off of the other above parties.
The team changed betweeen seasons 3-4, mostly with the introduction of producers Joe Malozzi and Paul Mullie to the show, combined with the departure of show developer and creator Johnathan Glassner. Joe and Paul have been running the show since, with tha notable help of regular director/producers Martin Wood and Peter Deluise (yes, THAT Peter Deluise).
Between them and others, they've collectively moved SG-1 in their own direction since then. They've always been mindful of the mythology, but more of the anchor points than the texture, if you will. Plus, it's tough to refer to lots of story points that weree established ten years ago, to an audience whose main group has been with the show for only four.
