New Stargate series coming to Amazon Prime

Well, you're asking someone who, given the choices "Star Wars, Star Trek, or Stargate?" would say "Stargate, of course!!! " each and every time so... of course, I'll say they're good! But seriously, you will be the better judge than me, on what you would consider 'good'. So I will just suggest that at least you watch the original 1994 movie "Stargate", and at least the first episode of the first season of the first TV series "Stargate SG-1". And from there, you can decide whether it's something that caught your interest enough to continue or not. For me, I loved the Stargate movie. But I actually love the tv series more, because imo it did a great job expanding the story and the world. I love Stargate SG-1, and the first spin-off Stargate Atlantis. If you decide to watch it through, there will come a time you will have to watch both alternately as they overlap (around post season 7 of SG1). The second spin-off Stargate Universe is a little different. Have to admit I wasn't a big fan of that one. However, I thought it was starting to get interesting in its second season, before it got cancelled... ... ... So anyway, if you ever decide to give it a watch, let me know, or post about it. Would love to discuss.

@moirai I was always Star Trek myself but I have started watching Stargate the movie and am about half an hour into it. So far, it's holding my interest, which is better than some shows do. I wasn't enamored with all the spin-offs for Star Trek so it's no surprise that some spin-offs for Stargate aren't as good as they could be. As long as it holds my interest, I'll watch it. Thank you for the suggestion.

@DaddyEvil Awesome!

Oooooh, nice! Where do you write your sci-fi?

@just4him Ah. I mean, do you post them somewhere? I had a quick look at your books (search came up with a link for them through amazon, I think), but they didn't seem very sci-fi on the surface. So I was wondering if you put your sci-fi stuff elsewhere... Or are they private for now?

@moirai On my computer.

@moirai I have loved Richard Dean Anderson since MacGyver. If something had him in it, I knew it would be good.

Yup! He was one of the mains in the first tv series Stargate SG-1. I remember flipping through channels one day looking for something to watch, and I happen upon this scene which turned out to be the opening scene of the 1st episode of the 1st season of SG-1. It caught my attention because I've seen the movie before and I loved it, and now here's a scene with a stargate, and it's not from the movie. Oooooooh! And then after that opening, the credits start and the first name that comes up is Richard Dean Anderson. MacGyver!!! I thought that's it. I'ma stop flippin and watch this.

@AmbiePam Loved MacGyver. So much fun. Note how even today people say things like: "Well, I just took some stuff and MacGyvered this together..."

Hope so too! Thanks.

@moirai Okay, enjoy watching it whenever it comes. Yes, the name of the Hindi movie I watched last has just come in my mind. It was " The Kashmir Files".A marvellous Hindi movie.

Yup. I hope so too. I'm a bit optimistic right now because the old creators are the ones involved in the new show as well. It's not a guarantee, but maybe the chances are a little higher as opposed to if it's in the hands of completely new people. Like I said, fingers crossed.

@moirai Let's hope and keep fingers crossed.
