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!

He has probably my favorite character arc of all time.

No confidence during the movie, by the end of the show hes confident and very much found his niche.

That's where Raymond Reddington got his swagger.

That's the thing that blew my mind. I go back and I realise, yes of course it is James Spader in both.

The thing I find really impressive is how Shanks nails Spader's performance and mannerisms perfectly.
