Prime Video's Scrapped Stargate Show Reveals a Bigger Problem Facing Sci-Fi TV




When Prime Videoannounced that it was developing a new Stargateseries, Stargate fans went wild with joy. After all, while Stargate wasn't a franchise on the same level as Star Wars or Star Trek, the original Stargate movie by Roland Emmerich remains a cult classic, while Stargate SG-1lasted for a decade and spawned a fleet of spinoffs. On top of that, the new Stargate series would also have a longtime creator working behind the scenes: Martin Gero, who served as a writer on Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis. The stage was set for a revival that fans had been waiting for, but those fans were hit by a massive curveball when Amazon announced that the new Stargate series was being shelved.
