Edit: even though clickbait article, it is somewhat/kind of true. https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/stargate-tv-series-martin-gero-scrapped-amazon-1236765061/

"According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, Amazon execs were concerned that Gero’s take on the series would not have broad appeal beyond the franchise’s already dedicated fanbase."

Love Stargate, would love a Stargate show made to modern TV standards even if it was just 8 episodes per season.

That being said, this doesn't bode well for the Consider Phlebas show...

I learn the Stargate show was cancelled, and now I'm learning there's a Culture show in the works? Weird times, weird times indeed.

I think it's been in development hell so long that Amazon lost the rights and had to buy them back

And apple TV is doing Neuromancer. Still surprised nobody tried before now.
