Amazon MGM Studios recently made the devastating decision to cancel the highly anticipated Stargate series spearheaded by franchise veteran Martin Gero, alongside Brad Wright and Joseph Mallozzi. The reported reason? Concerns that the show would appeal "too much" to the existing fanbase rather than a broader audience.

This decision is not only an insult to millions of fans who have kept the Gate active for over 30 years, but it is also a massive creative and financial mistake.

A dedicated fanbase is not a liability—it is the strongest foundation a network can have. Shows that respect their core audience, like Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, prove that honoring long-time fans is exactly how you generate the organic hype needed to attract new viewers.

By locking out the creators who built the lore of SG-1, Atlantis, and Universe, Amazon risks turning Stargate into a soulless corporate product that nobody wants to watch.

We, the global Stargate community, demand that Amazon MGM Studios reconsider this cancellation, trust Martin Gero's vision, and give this project the green light it deserves. Chevron 9 will not be locked without a fight. #SaveStargate #LetGeroBuildTheGate
