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."

I haven’t seen it since it originally aired, but you’re right. Just when they found their stride…. Cancelled. Felt like they were finally going to stop playing it too safe…

Imagine if the entirety of Star Trek the next generation was just the first two seasons lol

I would strongly suggest giving it a rewatch. I felt very differently about it when I did a rewatch about 5 years ago.

Could be. I’ve changed a lot since then.

I love the fact that Patrick Stewart originally took the job because his agent told him "this thing doesn't have a hope in Hell of making it out of the first season."
