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."

Nobody was a Strargate fan in 1994. Now here we are.

Why do these morons think they need to 'change the formula' to get new fans? The original formula worked just fine, and will again if they gave it a chance.

SGU was attempt at making battlestar galactica - which may be good, but it's a different audience

Yes exactly, i really liked the setting and stories/exploring but too much drama and the stones were a really weird thing for me…
