Prime Video's decision to reboot RoboCop following the cancellation of a new Stargate project raises questions about the platform's priorities. https://t.co/TYAgcIsdiL

@ThatHollywood No doubt fans of the franchise will be thrilled

[Jay @JamesBryhan]

This is what a campaign looks like.

Not just a hashtag.
Not just a petition.
People.

Fans signing their names. Fans organising events. Fans joining watch parties. Fans creating, sharing, talking and keeping a universe they love alive.

114,000+ signatures.
A worldwide community.
And still, the Gate remains open.

We may not know what happens next. We may still be waiting for an answer. But one thing is already clear:

Stargate still matters.

To thousands upon thousands of people across the world.

This campaign exists because the fans never stopped caring. And somewhere along the way, we’ve become a community brought together by one shared purpose — to see Stargate return.

Which raises one very important question…

What are we actually called?

Gaters?
StarSavers?
The SG-100K?
Gatekeepers?
The Gate Alliance?
Maybe @dhewlett @rachel_luttrell @MichaelShanks @BaronDestructo could give us all the honour ?

Whatever the name, we know what brought us together.

The Gate is calling. We answer.

With love , respect to @martingero @BaronDestructo @bradtravelers
Thank you for all the wonderful stories and God willing may you all continue to make more.
To all the fans, we are one beautiful, blessed community. Thank you all for standing your ground with passion, love and respect.

There comes a moment with every great story when you realise it was never just entertainment.

It quietly became part of your life.

It was the show you watched with family.

The characters who felt like old friends.

The stories that reminded you to be curious when others stopped asking questions, to find hope when things looked impossible, and to believe that ordinary people really can make a difference.

That’s what Stargate became for millions of us.

Somewhere along the way, it stopped being a television series.

It became a home we could always return to.

That’s why this campaign has never been about refusing to let go of the past.

It’s about making sure future generations have the chance to discover what we discovered.

To laugh with these characters.

To be inspired by these writers.

To step through the Gate for the very first time.

Every day this community grows.

New fans arrive.

Old friends reunite.

Complete strangers become one family because of a story created over thirty years ago.

That isn’t nostalgia.

That’s legacy.

Whatever happens next, I hope the people making decisions understand something that numbers alone can never measure.

They’re not deciding the future of a television show.

They’re deciding whether another generation gets to fall in love with a universe that taught so many of us to dream a little bigger, hope a little harder, and believe that the impossible is only impossible until someone has the courage to try.

The Gate is waiting.

We shall not go quietly into the night.

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.)
