Stargate: 10 Reasons Why NOW Is The Perfect Time To Bring The Franchise Back
9. Revivals Are 'In'
They say that originality died in 1969. We can't speak to that, but completely brand-new ideas are few and far between and there's hundreds of hours of television to be put on the screen every single day. So if the future doesn't have much to offer, what about what came before?
Ever since Ronald D. Moore's reimagined Battlestar Galactica hit the screens in 2004, there has been a wave of either reviving or reinventing franchises that have been lost to the annals of time. Just a few years ago in 2018, CBS began Star Trek: Discovery, the first Star Trek show in thirteen years. In 2015 Star Wars: The Force Awakens hit the big screen, while the Mandalorian continues the Star Wars legacy on the small screen.
Bringing back a franchise that already has a large fanbase is just decent business sense and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer so far haven't capitalised on the potential that a revived Stargate could offer.
