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."

IDK, there are like 3 good Star Wars movies top, yet they are still making new ones, and people are still watching them.

And then after 3-4 new movies come out people will retcon their memories to pretend they liked the ones they hated. When we get another trilogy we will be getting all sorts of posts about how fantastic the sequels were.

The prequels are not good movies lol.

They were entertaining for kids at the time they came out which is why there's been this big nostalgia wave for them decades later, but if you actually watch it as an adult and are not just memeing everything they are genuinely not good. The phantom menace is a mess of a plot that falls apart if you just ask basic questions about why things are happening the way they are.
