For those who don’t know (which seems to be the entire comment section at the moment), the new show is/was not a remake, they intended to follow on from the existing series.

I was pretty optimistic after watching the announcement [0] that this would be a decent show.

Here’s hoping they’ve developed it enough that they can shop it around.

Given the IP situation, is shopping it around even on the table?

Joseph Mallozzi says it's not, and he was involved with the new series development. I suppose Amazon is making enough from the concept that they aren't interested in selling it.

How would they make anything from it if they aren't going to make the show?

[randallsquared]

Possibly it continues to stream frequently enough to be considered a contributor to Prime Video? Not sure if you can stream it other places, but if so, those fees would be continued revenue that might disappear if the reaction to a new show is poor.

They aren't going to make _this_ show, they might make another show in the future, one catering to a broader (non-core-fan) audience.

> From the existing series

Which one? Universe? Atlantis? SG1?

[saurik]

All of those are from the same continuity. (The show was not to be a remake/reboot, but also was not to be like, another season of one of the existing shows. I do wish they would just figure out how to finish Stargate: Universe... they even likely-purposefully left the plot/characters in a state where they could actually do the next season now, even after all this time, and even if some of the actors can't or won't be involved anymore.)

And all had at least crossover. Such a fantastic franchise.
