@MoundLore I mean, I like it as I tend to avoid Illinois now because of thier dumb laws, and this means I could explore there freely because Indiana gets it.
@MoundLore Is X your only platform? I find a most of your content fascinating, but X kinda serves it up to me erratically. If you didnt re-post I'd never see a lot of it without manually digging through your profile. I like X but find that aspect irritating.
@Jack2LOneill@AmazonMGMStudio As a teenager I stumbled upon it on SciFi network and it quickly it became my favorite show and I eagerly anticipated new episodes every week. One of my earliest purchases from Amazon was the full 10 season gold box set of SG1 which is still a prized item for me.
Why is STARGATE so important to me ? Well… 👇
Stargate is a show that I grew up with, it was a friend in need, it was a journey we as fans all went on together. I’m in my 30s now and Stargate is one of 3 shows I actively rewatch.
Stargate was optimistic about the future, it had good lessons, it was comedic, it was serious, it was FUN. It wasn’t doom and gloom like a lot of scifi these days. It was positive and hopful generally.
Stargate was was escapism, it had moments where you would have tears of laughter, moments you cried…. A lot.
Stargate was and IS a broad group of people. It would draw in those from both sides of the political isle (something in today’s environment that is quite an achievement for a show) and managed to toe the line between gun hoe action or simple a story in a room. An entire episode. Just in a room. Picking apart a character. It really and truly was. Something for everyone. The showrunners loved that show! We trusted them!
The journey we all went on with Stargate was there in the hard times. I’m sure we’ve all had those moments. It was that little flicker of joy in what might’ve been a pit of despair.
Stargate isn’t the only show to do this, but Stargate did it well. For a LONG LONG time.
The franchises fans gave a lot of goodwill to this project. Something unheard of in today’s climate. The creators were on board. The ex actors seemingly looked exited about it too.
The way this got canceled was confusing. It just doesn’t make sense. Other than miscalculation or this is part of a modern strategy for marketing to get hype built up and get people talking. I don’t know lol.
So yeah, Stargate means a lot to us fans who are super fans of it, but we also aren’t the only ones. Many people are discovering Stargate and enjoying it just as we did. To see that be curbed and stopped. That’s sad.
This franchise doesn’t deserve to end. It deserves the life we literally just had.
I hope we can get this one over the line. I truly do.
Dial the gate. Just one last time @AmazonMGMStudio let them try for a season. If it doesn’t work out. It doesn’t. But let them try.

@MoundLore Indiana is sorely underrated. I used to hate it, thinking it was nothing but flat ground and bare fields. That is what you see off I-65 Louisville to Indy. Visiting relatives I started going through via different routes, and wow, cool places and historical sites everywhere.
@MoundLore I'm sure it's no longer part of the franchise, but I know of a Radio Shack still open I visit from time to time. It's not quite what it once was but it still has that feeling. Really nice guy runs it too, and somehow I always end up buying sonething....
@BaronDestructo Yes, but it's a terrible thing to eat from a health perspective. I try not to think of what they chop up and chemically concoct to make it Spam....
