Stargate Origins

This could work. It would probably have to be limited to a single series, but it could work.

The 10-episode series “Stargate Origins” will tell the story of Catherine Langford, a character who occasionally appeared in previous “Stargate” TV shows. The show will be available via MGM’s new streaming service, titled Stargate Command, which will be available this fall. Mark Ilvedson and Justin Michael Terry will write “Stargate Origins,” which will revolve around Langford, daughter of archaeologist Paul Langford, who discovered the ancient, round Stargate. In the show, Catherine will go on an adventure in order to save the Earth from terrifying darkness. The online series will be directed by Mercedes Bryce Morgan.

  2. Universe had a great premise, but the characters weren't sufficiently sympathetic. The other two succeeded in large part because the audience really liked the characters. (And the writing was very good, too, of course.)

    But I wouldn't mind seeing a made-for-TV movie showing what happened on the other side of that final "leap of faith" across the void.

  3. I actually really liked SGU. Have both seasons on disc.
    I felt the series had better character and storyline writing than the previous.
    Damn, I hope Eli figured it out!
    This new one could be very intriguing.
