The whole point of the story is that The Process DID NOT WORK, @TheLegalMindset, and that Reckless Ben has to take unreasonable actions to get The Process to even BEGIN to work as intended.
But even when Ben was doing everything by the book, the corrrupt American Fork Police Department ignored it and broke the law multiple times.
Law abiding citizens cannot follow the law of those enforcing the law are criminals.
Retard.
@MichaelShanks Showed this tweet to my wife. She said, “That settles it. We’re naming our next kid Daniel.”
We already have a son named after a StarGate character.
@Hatemonger_ Hey, Hatemonger, when are you to explain RICO laws and statistics for corruption in law enforcement?
Unrelated, do you own any Star Wars LEGOs?
Bricks & Minifigs is parting ways with Brandon Best and Joshua Johnson due to "a devastating social media campaign"
They say they have reached out to the family that owns the $200,000 LEGO collection to return it and offer compensation for any missing items
This was a tv series that had actual Joint Chiefs of Staff guest star on the show.
General Michael E. Ryan and General John P. Jumper, both real-life U.S. Air Force Chiefs of Staff, both appeared as themselves. They are part of Stargate canon.
Theory:
Stargate is the most Usaian TV franchise of all -- using the term Usaian as coined by @SarahAHoyt which means something that exemplifies the core of American values, regardless of literal nationality.
✅ Badass heroes being heroic
✅ Exploring and colonizing new worlds
✅ Enthusiastic support for Truth, Justice, and Freedom
✅ Willingness to self-sacrifice for any and all of the above
✅ Liberating allies so they can also fight for Truth, Justice, and Freedom
✅ Guns, explosions, and more guns
It's no wonder none of the big studios are willing to touch this IP with a ten-foot pole. These are guys who look at the *women* of Stargate and still feel emasculate. They fundamentally can't and WON'T understand what makes this franchise tick.
Well this is a hastily cobbled together shit-take of conjecture and misdirection.
The author starts by misreading a grassroots marketing launch as a statement of exclusive intent. Come on. Announcing a series TO a fandom alongside its community leaders is standard PR; it's not proof that the show was designed exclusively FOR fandom. In fact, it was made clear from the start that, first and foremost, the series would function as an accessible entry point for new viewers...while still respecting canon. And, by the way, “Respecting canon” does not mean “requiring new viewers to be familiar with 350+ hours of existing Stargate programming” as this article implies.
The author proceeds to support their point by launching into fan fiction: "No plot details were revealed about the scrapped show, but I can easily imagine…” And they certainly do. What follows is a parade of clichés, a generic legacy-sequel checklist that the author has conjured up from nothing and pinned to the new show as predictive evidence.
Then comes the claim that Starfleet: Academy failed because the showrunners: "focused too much on paying tribute to the series' past.” Uh, wut? Yes, Starfleet: Academy did receive a fair amount of criticism, but strict adherence to canon wasn't on the list of grievances. This reads like a comment from someone who likely never even watched the show, much less perused the fan response.
They state: "Rebooting the cannon also would let the new Stargate showrunner bring back the Goa'uld, the franchise's most iconic villains…” No, it wouldn’t. Know why? Because the goa’uld... ARE CANON!!!!
The article concludes with a disconnected meditation on an old Stargate storyline with no relation to either the new show or the author’s own argument.
I want to say it was written by A.I., but surely A.I. would display more logical consistency than this.

@jondelarroz It also broke canon. They completely messed up the Jaffa, Cathrine, and the entire timeline, while claiming it was a legitimate prequel to the TV series.
None of it made sense.
