    I’d watch an episode or two to see if it is good at the very least because Stargate is one of my favorite TV series.

    Probably, Yes.

    But maybe not if it’s a weird prequel retcon action dramedy featuring Jack O’Neil, age 20, going undercover in Goa’uld high school to try and locate the evil fiends behind a counterfeit jeans smuggling ring, falling in love with 18 year old student Sam Carter, who sees through his macho act and urges him to try and see the good in every Goa’uld, even the Captain of the Football Team, Lants McDonaldson, the awkward son of Apophis who just wants to settle down with a human of each gender on a country farm, raising llamas.

    Consider that there was an alternate timeline already with the mirror object. How many realities could there be where Earth was brutally destroyed, never found the Stargate, or was visited by another species before finding the gate. One franchise people often forget about is Fringe. It explored many of these concepts in an interesting way.

    I will watch a new Stargate show no matter what.

    Just give us a continuation of the core SG-1 timeliness, whoever is working at stargate command now. As long as the writing is good. A reboot or recast would be the worst, laziest thing that could happen.

    Yes if they don’t DEI it up like most shows these days.

    Incidental characters, new characters here and there, fine. A storyline where it makes sense, maybe.

    Half the crew? Um…no. Make one of the original characters go gay/trans for b.s. reasons, um…no

    Just focus on the story. Give us a GOOD story.

      lol, fuck off. Strange New worlds has a diverse cast and is a wonderful show. Lower decks, same thing. It’s totally doable. If you’re referring to something a la Discovery, the issue is poor writing for a typical Star Trek show, not that it has a diverse cast. Stop being a snowflake and watch some reruns if you can’t handle where society is going. “Can you believe I was made to look at a black person, an Asian, a GAY, AND a woman in a position of authority? It’s enough to give me the vapors!!”

        The real issue with Discovery is that they fridged Michelle Yeoh so they could make Burnham the main character, a character they went to great lengths to show us is a violently xenophobic mutineer, and yet who is still somehow more open minded than nearly everyone else on Discovery.

        Star Trek is supposed to be woke and Discovery wasn’t. Having a black main character doesn’t make a show woke, actually promoting social progress makes a show woke.
