Sadly, it's true. Amazon has elected not to move forward with the new Stargate series.
There's not much I can add beyond confirming what's happened. But I will say this...
Creator Martin Gero developed a new Stargate series over two years, ultimately crafting a show that offered a fresh jumping-on point for new viewers while deeply respecting existing canon. It was a series that avoided the pitfalls of several modern remakes and reboots by fully embracing the core of its predecessors: action, adventure, exploration, wonder, heart, humor, and found family. And based on that creative vision, the new Stargate series was greenlit in November of 2025.
As of today, officially, that original vision is no more. We'll never get the opportunity to introduce you to that world and those characters - or reintroduce you to, and check in with, some familiar faces from the past.
My heart breaks. For the incredibly talented writers who worked tirelessly to bring this show to life. For Martin who maintained an unwavering positive outlook throughout despite the challenges, and who always strove to make a show that would honor the fans while welcoming a new audiences. And for the long-suffering Stargate fandom who waited so long and came so close to getting a show they truly would have loved.
PSA: There will be no DC Fan-imated Stream tonight.
My work schedule prevents us from going LIVE tonight and made it impossible to prerecord last night.
Enjoy the night, get some rest, and join us next week for BATMAN BEYOND “Out of the Past.”
@comicsand_ Whenever people apologize, the smartass in me always asks, “so, did you return the paycheck?”
No? Then shut up, take the money, and move on.
That was not what I was expecting. A fabulous horror movie that relays on suspense and painful tension to unsettle the viewer, not gore and jump scares.
The mind can be a scary place.
This taut thriller played out in ways I was not expecting in the best possible ways. Every brick is laid with perfection, building to a climax and conclusion that eschews cliche. Major kudos to the sound design, the soundtrack selections, and the original score.
@JeffDye While I get the ironic comedy, the reality is The Super Soaker mural in Mobile honors Dr. Lonnie G. Johnson, a native Mobilian, NASA engineer, and inventor of the iconic water gun.
