So now that Stargate: Universe is dead, and those SG1 and SGA movies are unlikely to get made, and the glory days are behind us, the question becomes one of "What happens next?" I mean, is this the *end* of Stargate, or just a wrong turn that they can recover from? Is this Star Trek: Enterprise, or Galactica 1980, or is it merely Doctor Who under Collin Baker, waiting desperately for a Sylvester McCoy? And how long until we find out?
I got no answers for you, of course, but since it's a slow news day and it seemed vaguely pertinent, I thought I'd rerun this "Create your own spinoff" thing from a bit ago.
Note to MGM and SyFy: If you like any of the ideas on here, I *can* be bought. Cheaply. And unlike Brad Wright and Mr. Mallozzi, I won't deliberately antagonize the fans and call them idiots. Instead, I promise I'll give them a show they'll like. I'll also clean up around the office after hours, provided there's no heavy lifting. I've got a bad back, y'see...
And should MGM or SyFy decide to hire me, I think my first act would be to do a show that resolves all the dangling threads from the previous shows in satisfying fashion, while telling their own original story. Can I get an "Amen?"
