    Will the gate be spinning? Spinning is so much cooler than not spinning.

    I’m glad that it’s helmed by someone who’s worked extensively on the original shows. Hopefully it won’t suck too much.

    I hope they come back with something more optimistic and upbeat than the needlessly edgy SG:U. I get that drama and conflict are needed, but a main cast that’s constantly fighting gets tiresome really quickly.

      SG:U was tapping into BSG’s teenage drama in space.

      So look to what current sci-fi shows are popular to see what they’ll shamelessly copy instead.

        They had better not decide that discovery is popular.

              David Ellison now owns Paramount and thus Star Trek. He has stated he has big plans, with Star Trek as a priority and to make it ‘appeal to middle america’.

      The thing is… the original series was incredibly melodramatic. There was a constant uptick in drama… but often in a very tongue-in-cheek way. There was no acknowledgment of the ridiculousness of the premise in SG:U, if they took themselves less seriously (and had less high school level drama) it might have been a better show. Unfortunately that wasn’t the algorithm at the time :(

      Sadly, I don’t think it’s the current algorithm now either, so this new show still won’t have the feel of the original series or Atlantis.

      I hope she’s on board at least as a producer or maybe a cameo. She’s got some solid production/directing chops, so it could be incredibly beneficial to have her on.

      My money is on either her or Picardo being moderately involved. Carter is the obvious choice for the “General”, where Woolsey is a wonderful pick for civilian leadership as he saw significant growth over his character’s appearances. Smart money is on Hewlett appearing for at least a cameo, he’s more impressive in real life than his character, and I bet he’d jump at the chance to reprise a more mature version of his role.

    That took long enough. Wonder if it will stream on Amazon, or MGM+.

        Interesting, considering it’s an MGM property. Makes me wonder if that channel will simply be absorbed into Prime like Freevee was.
