Do NOT mess with fandom.

It’s a double-edged sword. Do right by fans, and they’ll follow you to the ends of the Earth. But betray them, and they will cut you!

I'm not a some overt supporter of Starmer, but if you want to see how manipulation and misinformation works on this platform, @toryboypierce's post here can be used as an exemplary example of disingenous, misleading BS.

The data he is referring to is 25 year data. When Starmer took office debt was 99.5% of GDP, today it's 94.2% of GDP. That's actually a fall of 5.3%. The UK is the world's 5th largest economy, recently upgrading from 6th. Debt is not increasing, and the UK is not a third world country - far from it.

Andrew takes 25 year data and attributes poor performance to one of the few Prime Ministers during that era who actually reduced debt to gbp.

Do we wonder why the working man on the street has been made to hate Starmer with all this utter BS circulated by these compromised grifters?

Well said, John Summers: "Studios spend billions chasing recognizable IP because they want built-in audiences. Then when a franchise actually has a built-in audience, suddenly that audience is treated like a problem to manage." #Stargate

@EStephenBurnett It’s just a damn amazing concept, and rich universe. The fact it was present day Earth, and people just like us, makes the whole show so relatable.

I find it hard to believe that anytime could get to mid-season four and not have decided it’s one of the best sci-fi shows ever.

Watch this for the best take yet of what “happened”…..

[GateBuilder (#SaveStargate) @SGAGateBuilder]

We need a respectful but powerful campaign to ask Amazon to reverse this decision. Martin and his team always thought of us, now its our turn to help them. @MichaelShanks is right. We need to act fast or we won't see Stargate produced by the right people . @StargateNow

[Michael Shanks @MichaelShanks]

I’m gonna simply say this: if you are at all interested in a Stargate show with ANY of the original creators/performers involved, now is the time to say something. Otherwise it really will be the end of that chapter forever. Let them know you are THERE

[Scribe Light @Scribe_Light]

What has kept #StargateSG1 a property that has lasted in fervent popularity for nearly 20 years AFTER it went off the air?

The fans.

What made it a property worth investing (likely) millions of dollars in to create a new series?

The fans.

Who could you rely on, not only to bring themselves, but at this point THEIR CHILDREN and, heck even their GRANDCHILDREN into the fanbase with a faithful continuation?

The fans.

Who will never forgive you, @AmazonMGMStudio , and never be your customers for anything related to #Stargate ever again?

The fans. All of them.

[Jack O'Neill @Jack2LOneill]

The hate train will continue until @AmazonMGMStudio rescinds their stupidity or releases the Stargate rights for fans to save the series.

RELEASE THE RIGHTS OR RELEASE A GOOD STARGATE

[Kyle West @kylethomaswest]

@Dozzabrun I’m hoping they may backtrack — certainly enough time as no one will have moved onto other work yet — but studios these days just turn a blind eye to social media backlash whenever the subject matter doesn’t suit them 🤦🏼‍♂️

[StargateOnPrime 🖖 🫡 @sleepytrekkie]

Based on the universal backlash pouring in due to the cancelation of the upcoming #Stargate series, I'd say that @AmazonMGMStudio fucked up royally

[Kyle West @kylethomaswest]

I don’t think @AmazonMGMStudio fully realise what damage they’ve done to their Stargate IP by cutting the new show over how much it successfully would’ve appealed to the existing fanbase.

They’ve lost fan trust, and therefore cut the legs off of whatever they DO eventually make.

“Amazon execs were concerned that Gero's take on the series would not have broad appeal beyond the franchise's already dedicated fanbase”

This kind of thinking is killing Hollywood.

[Meakis @MVDMeakis]

"Sources say Amazon execs were concerned that Gero's take on the series would not have broad appeal beyond the franchise's already dedicated fanbase."

BUILD FOR THE FANBASE THERE IS, NOT FOR THE FANBASE YOU COULD HAVE. If you do make a good series, THE FANBASE will advertise.

[Joseph Mallozzi 🏴‍☠️ @BaronDestructo]

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.
