I'm so glad I get to live in a world where there are Octobers, aren't you?

This has got to be some of the stupidest decision making in the history of ever, Amazon, taunting a huge fan base that you've spent the last three months ignoring, with new content that won't in any way resemble what they want. Gonna be fun to watch this one fail 👍

[Variety @Variety]

EXCLUSIVE: "WandaVision" creator Jac Schaeffer is developing a new "Stargate" TV series for Amazon MGM Studios.

This will be Amazon's second attempt at a new "Stargate" series. It was previously reported that Martin Gero was working on a new TV entry in the sci-fi franchise, but that project ultimately did not move forward.

@AmazonMGMStudio If you only knew how many more replies for that One Show are in these responses that you can't see bc you're filtering us out.... That one gets my vote too. Do the right thing here and at least acknowledge this fandom.

Listening to Stargate fans isn't about giving in to nostalgia,it's about understanding the audience you've already inherited.

Fans were encouraged when Martin Gero and other Stargate veterans were involved because it signalled continuity, experience, and respect for what made the franchise special.

These are creators who understand the characters, the humour, the optimism, the world-building and the unique Stargate balance of science fiction and human storytelling.

That matters. Fans don't expect every new story to recreate SG-1 or Atlantis. We want a new Stargate that understands why we loved the originals.

The existing fanbase is an asset: passionate viewers, word-of-mouth ambassadors and a ready-made community that can help introduce Stargate to a new generation.

You doesn't have to give us fans everything we ask for. But listening to us,and giving experienced Stargate creators a meaningful role,could reduce risk and build trust from day one.

The Gate already has an audience waiting on the other side. Open it.

Some people ask why we're still here.

Because hope doesn't have an expiry date.

Because stories that changed lives deserve to be remembered.

Because every day someone discovers Stargate for the very first time and falls in love with it just as we did.

We're not living in the past.

We're fighting for the future.

For 15 years, Stargate has been silent.

When Amazon MGM greenlit a new series led by veteran Stargate writer and producer Martin Gero, fans finally had hope that the journey would continue. Then, before cameras even rolled, that hope was taken away.

We don't believe this should be the end.

If you've ever stepped through the Gate, followed SG-1, explored Atlantis, or drifted with Destiny, now is the time to make your voice heard.

Join the #SaveStargate campaign. Sign the petition, share the message, and help show Amazon MGM that Stargate still has a passionate, dedicated audience waiting for its return.

The Gate has been closed for long enough.

Remembering Don S. Davis - Hammond of Texas

My earliest memory of Don S. Davis is of a charming, bigger-than-life individual who greeted me with a hardy handshake and a boisterous “Hellooo, Jooooe! Welcome to Stargate!” on one of my very first days on set. This was back in season four, sometime between our second script (Window of Opportunity) and our third (Point of No Return). In those early years, Paul and I spent most of our days in our respective offices, writing, spinning or, in one inspired afternoon, creating the lyrics to the Stargate SG-1 theme. We were busy and, most important of all, we wanted to look busy. The last thing we needed was to be seen hanging around set, gawking at the actors when there were scripts to be written, brilliant ideas to be spun. But several weeks in, it became apparent to me that sitting alone in my office (or, occasionally, Paul’s office for a little variety) would inevitably drive me nuts – and the loss of my sanity would no doubt be reflected in the quality of my work. So I decided to start taking little walks. Pitch document or outline in hand, I would pace – up and down the corridors, in and around the building, and through the empty sets.

Except for one afternoon when I inadvertently strolled onto an active set where they were setting up for the next shot. Realizing my error, I immediately turned on my heels, prepared to march right back out when Brad Wright spotted me and called me over. “Joe,”he said, “I’d like you to meet Don Davis. Don, Joe is one of our new writers.” Don, who’d been standing by, waiting for that next shot, threw me his trademark ear to ear grin, gave me a firm handshake and bellowed “Hellooo, Jooooe! Welcome to Stargate!”

“Hellooo, Jooooe!” It was a greeting I’d come to associate with the man, a good-natured, self-deprecating southern gent who always had a story to tell but, more than anything, always wanted to hear how YOU were doing. “Hellooo, Jooooe! How’s that script coming along?”. “Hellooo Jooooe! How was lunch?” “Hellooo, Jooooe! How was your weekend?” Meeting actors for the first time can be a little daunting, especially for a newbie writer on his first big show, but Don’s down-home warmth and cordiality put me instantly at ease. And it was no different when he met the fans. I’ve seen convention-goers approach him with trepidation, perhaps fearful of overstepping their bounds and imposing upon him. But Don was never the type to be stand-offish or put himself on display. When you met Don, you weren’t meeting a t.v. star – you were meeting a regular guy. A regular, modest, kind-hearted guy who genuinely cared for his fans and the people he worked with. And, inevitably, those convention-goers who had, moments before, cautiously approached the man they knew as General Hammond would, moments later, be sitting, chatting and laughing, in conversation with good old Don.

If there’s one thing I’ll always remember about the man, it was his willingness to put others before him. Back when Rick was reducing his workload to spend more time with his young daughter, and the writing department was scrambling to come up with in-story reasons for O’Neill’s off-world absences, Don came up to the offices and offered a solution. “Have Hammond step aside and let O’Neill be General,”he suggested. I was floored. Here was a guy, perfectly willing to walk away from a plum role as a regular on a hit series, just to (in his mind) make it easier on everyone else. Of course we thanked him for his kind offer, but we weren’t willing to let George Hammond go just yet.

Ultimately, the decision was made for us when health issues curtailed Don’s involvement in the show. But even so, he continued to maintain a presence in the Stargate universe, popping up in occasional episodes and then in his final appearance in Stargate: Continuum. And every time he was on set, he would always make it a point to drop by the office to say hello.

As the years wore on, I saw less and less of Don. Still, I’d run into him now and then and whenever I’d inquire about him, he was always upbeat. There was never a trace of bitterness or remorse that he was no longer a regular presence on the show. “I have no regrets,”he’d told me on more than one occasion. And, always: “I’m the luckiest man in the world.” It was a wild, fun-filled ride and, finally, it was time for the southern gent to settle back and enjoy his retirement.

The last time I spoke to Don was when he called me up out of the blue after being tipped off that I’d mentioned him in a blog entry. In answering a fan who wanted to know why I didn’t keep in touch with Richard Dean Anderson, I responded: “We don’t talk a lot for the simple reason that he no longer works on the show. I don’t really talk to Don Davis that much and I love the guy. It’s nothing personal.” Less than twenty-four hours later, I got the call. “Ah luuv yoou tooo,“came that familiar low, Southern drawl. He‘d been tipped off to what I’d written and wanted to touch base. “It’s always great hearing from my fellow gourmand,”I’d written. “Apparently, 2007 was a busy year for him (which is great to hear), and he’s now enjoying some much-needed downtime." I'd expressed the hope that we would soon be able to get together for another culinary excursion. Sadly, that day would never come.

In my many years at Stargate, I’ve worked with actors whose company I have greatly enjoyed, but only a few would I actually be bold enough to call my friends. And among those few was the magnanimous southern gent who used to greet me with that familiar “Hellooo, Joooe!”, the always affable Don S. Davis.

He is truly missed.

(One of my favorite pictures of Don I snapped of him, happily eating chocolate in my office.)

OK. This is just cool. Really sorry I missed the Times Square event. Thank you, @BlazeISAF and the entire #SaveStargate team who put boots on the ground today. You guys made us proud.
