Stargate is greenlit! (Page 1 of 3)

Thanks for sharing. This announcement video gives me hope that they won't screw it up

The last of what I consider the big three "Star" shows, with Star Trek and Star Wars.
From the first movie with James Spader to the last Episode of Universe, this franchise has never let me down.
Let's hope they can succeed where the other two failed.

Have you heard about Scrubs (2026) and Malcolm in the Middle (2025)?

Both apparently with original cast members as well.

I guess it's the nostalgia era for my age kicking in. The guys who really loved that stuff are now old enough to make the big decisions and they're reviving all the stuff they loved.

And yes, heard about Scrubs and MITM, Definitely gonna watch those as well.

Does anyone think Hollywood is even capable of producing a good SciFi series refresh without injecting identity politics and destroying the legacy franchise?

I'm highly skeptical this will be any different to Dr Who, Star Wars, Star Trek, Terminator, LOTR, Willow, Marvel etc etc

Yea, the other two "Star" shows have really gone off the rails IMO.  Bled to death.

For me, Universe was somewhat a let down, but not of the magnitude that Wars and Trek have.

So thrilled that this being done as a continuation.  Not a "re-imagining".  Not a "reboot".  But a proper continuation by the same people that brought the original shows.  Gives me hope it will be done correctly, keeping canon, keeping the same magic, keeping respectful.

I saw the announcement on Gateworld where they had the Zoom video conference and the creators seems genuinely excited - like little kids - like us - and the one saying

Pretty sure they start with one show.  But if they do it right, I wouldn't mind at all for them to continue all three original series.

Finally. Really looking forward to this. Also glad to know that the showrunner was a writer on the original batch of series, and that Wright and Mallozzi are still involved. Stuff like Origins is basically fanfiction, and rarely the good kind.

You will probably have to put up with some characters being gay there at some point. What really "destroys" franchises is new writing teams coming in and wanting to do their own thing without giving any care to how their predecessors worked or thought, and why it worked. Even if they reject all of it, they need to understand it. Also, a story needs to be interesting without being attached to what came before it before attaching it to it, otherwise it will only be, again, crappy fanfiction.

Example Star Trek: Deep Space Nine worked for many people because it actively rejected being the same as TNG, at the expense of not being very interesting at first, whereas TNG had some rough first two seasons while figuring out how to not be TOS. Strange New Worlds is at its worst when it tries to treat its preexisting lore as a joke (Vulkans usually being a good example). Discovery got a lot better when it got (temporal) distance from TOS, it just never got over its other core problems.

Very excited for this one.

Oh for... dammit, Amazon.

If they did not even have a pilot, how would they know who it would interest? Something else is going on here.
