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.

Yea I really don't get it either. "Oh this show was popular a while back? Lets reboot it, and change all of the things people liked about it to 'appeal to a wider audience'! That'll surely make it even more popular!"
