Roland reported hated SG1 though... Wonder if it grew on him over the years or if this will be a different beast entirely.

I CANNOT WAIT for this to be inexplicably canceled after a critically acclaimed first season! Hey, wait...

Still, super stoked!

They are EPs, which is a contractual obligation. There’s been no mention they will be directly involved.

Yeah, that last part stings. My favorite sci-fi series of all time. I still hold hope that they'd do the last 3 in a few years as the books were set 30 years later.

Frankly I don't mind fictionalizing the military to show them as idealistic, accountable, intelligent, and egalitarian. It's what they should be, and it sets an example that both gives an ideal for the real military to strive towards, and it stands in contrast to the real world issues with the actual military, highlighting the ways in which they come short or behave counter to that ideal example.

Personally I want more people that are going to enter the military to want a military like SG1 than to want a military that does what it actually has done historically. We shouldn't whitewash reality, absolutely, but that doesnt mean we can't have better examples in a sci-fi world.

Did star trek literally work hand in hand with "communists" and was reliant on them like stargate was with the US air force? Your argument is nonsensical.

Expect that's never been true for the American military and Stargate literally worked so closely with the US Air Force to sanitize its perception they should be considered one the main writers.
