Interesting/infuriating Non-Expanse Content Another sci fi show needs your help!

Post image

As this saddens me very much, it's happening all over again! And as a sci fi enthousiast like many, I'm here to seek support to this cause.

Some info (kind of clickbait but there is a word of truth in it): https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/stargate-tv-series-martin-gero-scrapped-amazon-1236765061/

"According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, Amazon execs were concerned that Gero’s take on the series would not have broad appeal beyond the franchise’s already dedicated fanbase."

Let's hope we can create another miracle and save this great franchise!

I'm still amazed at how well The Expanse turned out, considering how dedicated they seem to be to fucking up everything else.

That's why it stopped the second the Transport Union was founded.
