@PopcastGuys So is the plan to now spread as much hate as possible to assure the cancelation of what we all fought over 15 years to see again? If so, this is SGU all over again, and I refuse to participate in my own self destruction.

An open message to @AmazonMGMStudio

We want Stargate back.
But more importantly, we want you to understand why we want it back.

There is a concern among many long-time fans that the value of the Stargate franchise is being viewed primarily as its basic premise and brand recognition, rather than the incredible universe that has already been built.

Stargate 1994 movie was just the beginning. A small window. Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universe didn't simply tell variations of the same story. Together, they created a vast mythology, established characters, countless worlds, civilisations, technologies, mysteries and decades of history.

That history isn't baggage.

It's the franchise's greatest asset.

We aren't asking you to simply recreate SG-1. We aren't asking for endless nostalgia or a carbon copy of what came before.

We want something new.

Give us new characters. New teams. New worlds. New threats. New mysteries.

But don't throw away the universe that makes those new stories possible.

There is no reason why a new series can't be accessible to someone discovering Stargate for the first time while still respecting the people who have been watching, supporting and talking about this franchise for decades.

In fact, that would be Stargate's greatest strength.

You don't have to choose between new audiences and existing fans.

You can bring people into the franchise by giving them a compelling new story — while rewarding longtime viewers who understand the history behind the universe.

So please don't look at Stargate and see something that needs to be rebooted simply because it's old.

Look at what you've inherited.

Look at the enormous universe that is already there.

And then ask yourselves:

“Where can we take this next?”

That's the Stargate we want.

Not a replacement.

Not an erasure.

A continuation. An expansion. A new chapter in a universe we already love.

Amazon MGM — please listen to the fans.

Don't reboot the universe. Explore it.

@SaveStargateHQ Colonel David Telford
LDP did such a good job. When him and Rush had those competing speeches about the future of Destiny... While in reality the show was being canceled and it was like he took Syfy's side and Rush had the fans... truly one of my favorite scenes. #SaveStargate

[KayfabeRMP #SaveStargate @RMPlaiscia]

@primemovies Continuation is the answer, especially with stories that hold such tremendous weight, like #Stargate. It's the same logic Disney used with Star Wars. They continued the story, filled in gaps, regardless of how well they worked, it's just the right thing to do with a story so vast

[KayfabeRMP #SaveStargate @RMPlaiscia]

It really just hit me... just now.
America is dead.
Whatever this is... it's something else.
Something... different... and it gets harder to breathe everyday, with the weight of oligarchs and tyranny choking the life out of whatever there is left.
May the Force Be With Us All

I just love more and more how dialing the gate is a just a shout out to the old school dial phones. Stargate just makes it so much more dramatic.
6......1.9.........7.......
You get the point. 3... cheers to dialing!

@SaveStargateHQ SGU! Sorry, I know, I know. But this platform doesn't give me enough space to explain what this show meant to me. I connected with the characters like never before. The story had me hooked every week. We had a group on FB and would watch it together. Great times!

@Saints @drewbrees Thank you for everything you've given us. You are an inspiration and I wish nothing but blessings for you and your family as your journey on this 3rd rock from the sun continues on. May the light forever be at your side!

If you're reading this, then a simple retweet or post of #SaveStargate is appreciated.

We want Martin Gero's #Stargate *continuation* series to be re-greenlighted. Now. Not later. NOW.

Please and thank you, @Amazon @AmazonMGMStudio @mgmplus @PrimeVideo

[KayfabeRMP #SaveStargate @RMPlaiscia]

SGU never got the love it deserved. What a compelling narrative, amazing story, great acting, everything! Love this show!
Would also love if @AmazonMGMStudio
took a chance to add to this incredible lore and not just wash it all away.

Stargate means a lot to a lot of people. @AmazonMGMStudio I really do call on you to actually communicate with the fans on this one.

This isn’t a small franchise. In its 350 hours of television that accrued millions of fans worldwide. They deserve a little bit more respect than a PR drop in a Variety article.

We and many others want @martingero Stargate and vision. We wanted the team that comes with that elite baller knowledge.

@BaronDestructo and Co have been incredible bastions in community along with @dial_the_gate and @GateWorld

You had these guys on a video dropped on your channel with the promise of a show.

What went wrong? Reinstating the Gate will happen. How and what it looks like? That’s down to you the IP holder after all.

But without the fans and without clear communication on what’s transpired it’s a tough ask to get us to be excited again. Maybe you don’t care. Who knows.

All I know is you had ungodly good faith from some the most critical people online. Not just fans.

Come on @PrimeVideo and @JeffBezos reinstate the gate. Make this happen.

One last time. #SaveStargate #Stargate

Hey @AmazonMGMStudio
Let's #SaveStargate shall we?

[James Kerfoot @BlazeISAF]

#SaveStargate

The first thing Stargate taught me:

Everything generally works out better in a cooperative world.

Looking back, I think Stargate is one of the reasons I became so politically independent. Not because Stargate taught me that politics doesn’t matter, but because it taught me that diplomacy, cooperation, and mutual respect often matter more.

At its core, Stargate was never just a show about military expeditions, fighting aliens, and procuring advanced technologies. It was a show about people from different worlds, cultures, and perspectives learning exactly how to work together. Time and time again, the biggest victories came not from conquest, but from collaboration and alliance formation.

That’s one reason SGU had such a rocky start with part of the existing fanbase. While a lot of people grew to appreciate it over time, the show focused far more on interpersonal conflict than SG-1 or Atlantis ever did. For many of us fans, it felt like a departure from one of the core themes that had always defined Stargate: that cooperation is ultimately more powerful than division.

I will always appreciate the writers of Stargate for creating a show that wasn’t simplistic about any of this. The military was often portrayed as heroic, but not infallible. Civilian leadership remained important too. The writers regularly explored the balance between militaristic necessity and civilian oversight. They presented a world where good people could disagree, where institutions weren’t always right, and where solutions usually required people to work together rather than simply imposing their will.

Those ideas have followed me throughout my life.

Every fandom contains politics. That’s unavoidable. But Stargate has always felt unusually resistant to political tribalism. The themes are bigger than politics. They’re about cooperation, exploration, and finding common ground with those who see the world differently than you do.

That’s why I believe Stargate is a force for good.

Not because the proper return of this franchise will solve all of our problems, but because stories shape individuals, and those individuals shape culture. Stargate encouraged millions of people to believe that understanding each other is better than fighting each other, and that lasting cooperation begins when someone chooses to start with forgiveness.

That’s why I’ve made it my personal mission to ensure that Stargate returns with those core themes intact.

Because this world needs them!

This, @AmazonMGMStudio
This is what you're ignoring. This is what you're missing. We are those fans you desire. We'll be there every week, rewatching episodes for easter eggs, dissecting new lore on social media, spreading the passion like not even you could.

Re: #SaveStargate

Amazon got it exactly wrong on "the modern audience" - and Stargate fans are proving why.

Execs killed a ready-to-shoot revival fearing it wouldn't reach beyond the fanbase. But the "modern audience" isn't some lore-allergic, quip-hungry fiction built in a boardroom. Gen Z devours dense lore (Fallout, Elden Ring), competent content, sincere found-family teams solving real problems - exactly what Gero's Stargate delivers.

This fandom isn't small or fading. Two weeks post-cancellation and they're still fired up worldwide - larger, better organized, and angrier than most. They've already made execs notice. This passion isn't a risk; it's rocket fuel. Harness it and Stargate doesn't just survive - it becomes the next @PrimeVideo hit that grows the audience by respecting it.

We will carry the weight.
We will bare the burden.
If @AmazonMGMStudio rests that new Stargate show upon our shoulders, turns Martin Gero's 20 week writers room into just a single season, WE WILL carry it far beyond and into the future.
WE WILL #SaveStargate !
THIS is the way...

[Joseph Mallozzi 🏴‍☠️ @BaronDestructo]

In a word" "Wow."

Stargate fans continue to amaze.  It's been two weeks since the show's cancellation was announced and they’re still as energized and active as ever, lighting up social media with their love for the franchise.

And I keep being asked: Will it make a difference? My answer is "Yes" and "Don't know"...

It reminds me of when Dark Matter was cancelled back in 2017 and the fan backlash was so intense that Syfy reportedly called an emergency meeting to discuss damage control.  They considered making a public statement to quell the fan furor but, ultimately, elected to remain silent.  And, eventually, the storm subsided.  

Eventually.  

But this time…this feels different.  The Dark Matter fandom was small but organized and very angry.  The Stargate fandom, on the other hand, is remarkably large, incredibly well organized, and - if the last two weeks are any indication - possibly even angrier.

I'm on the outside on this so I can't tell you what The Powers That Be are thinking but based on pure conjecture...

Have they noticed the fan response? Oh, safe to assume they have definitely noticed.

Have they been surprised by the scale and ferocity of the fan response? I'm going to assume yes. The fan pushback has been worldwide and intense.

Are they thinking "If we could harness this type of fan engagement to help launch a new show, it would be a huge asset!"? Again, given the sustained enthusiasm and global reach - I'm sure it has crossed their minds.

Are they thinking "Fandom passion can be a double-edged sword. I wonder if there have been examples of other genre shows whose performances have suffered due to intense fan response?" This one's a little trickier. The data scrapers and algorithms monitor vocal/negative sentiment, but how much weight executive leadership places on analogous data is always up for debate.

But will it all make a difference in the end? So far, yes, it has already made a difference, for many of the reasons outlined above.

So will it make a difference for the future of Stargate? I honestly don't know. From a marketing standpoint, this is a public relations coup waiting to happen. Acknowledge that the fans made a difference - and recognize that the excitement they've shown over the past two weeks won't stop at a relaunch. It will carry every episode. They've proven this series is theirs, and they won't let it fail. They will be the core of the new Stargate, a core that will only grow as they introduce the series to friends, family, and complete strangers, just as they have always done.

But that's just me. In the end, I'm just the guy who helps create the world, the words, the characters on the page. I'm the one who helps bring them to life with an amazing cast and crew so that you can visit with them and make them a part of your lives. I'm not the guy making the decisions.

One thing seems certain: the execs have taken notice. Now we'll see what they do with that knowledge.

[KayfabeRMP #SaveStargate @RMPlaiscia]

You're a large entity that uses its power to sway governments. We're just the slaves that those governments step on. And we hold on dearly to those things that trick us into believing that things are going to be okay. Stargate is one of those things. And we will fight for it.

[KayfabeRMP #SaveStargate @RMPlaiscia]

Hey @AmazonMGMStudio
Do we truly not exist to you?
Is our passion not what you desire in a fanbase?
Should we instead be arguing over color, or creed, or religion?
Does our unity go too far against the grain of modern society?
Are we not good enough for you?

Amazon MGM Studios cancelled Stargate, saying the fans are not enough. Now the global fan base is clapping back.

[KayfabeRMP #SaveStargate @RMPlaiscia]

We won't hate-watch like Star Wars fans. We won't just deal with it because of fancy explosions and lack of character depth. We'll just go back to work. Some of us will cancel our Prime memberships and give our money to Walmart. But not nearly enough for you to notice.
