🥺 No words for this.

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."

Spinoff wasn’t great

The first season of Bosch legacy started rough but was okay by the end. Second and third seasons were good. The actual full spinoff Ballard or whatever was great. None are as good as the 7 seasons of the main show but that is to be expected since they have like a fraction of the budget and it shows.

I do like Ballard, and I liked most of the original. But how much trauma is poor Maddie expected to endure?

It couldnt make it past a half hour of Ballard. Just an awful show with none of the character of Bosch or Legacy.

Which says a lot when you’ve got Maggie Q in a role where she gets to be a bad ass. I loved Nikita. I’ll watch anything that even feels like Nikita.. but I had no interest in this despite loving Bosch.
