Do you want a TV revival of SGA/SG-1?

Well, I would certainly like a TV revival much more than a reboot movie (you know I try to stay positive, but it just sounds like a terrible idea).  The thing is that revivals don't have a very good track record, so I'm not completely sure.  I love the characters on both shows and I'd like to see them again, and also I'd be so happy to have a sci-fi show I could watch regularly again, but it's so hard to know what it would really be like.

I would maybe enjoy a new spin-off set later, as long as it returned to the tone of the first two shows (Universe didn't do anything for me before I got super tired of "gritty" storytelling, and now it really really doesn't appeal to me).

We're in agreement! I can imagine I spin-off, and I would love that include somekind of telling of what happened, and familiar faces to visit would be lovely too. And yes, the tone would need to akin to SG-1/SGA - Universe did not work for me for many reasons, one being the tone was too different than the other two shows. It didn't feel like the same universe to me.

I haven't heard about the reboot-movie since the news broke, but it was SG-1 and SGA that connected so with me and not the film, so I will probably not be interested.

Yeah, I would enjoy a spin-off like that.

I haven't heard much either- beyond some general "btw, this is still sounds like a bad idea" talk cropping up among fans now and then, I don't know if it's really happening or not. My main problem with the idea of a reboot movie is that my favorite thing about the Stargate series is the universe and character building. Like, when they start out there's a Stargate and it goes to like one planet, and by the end they have ships from the Asgard and the Jaffa are starting a new nation and they have bases in another galaxy and it's all so cool- and these characters have just come so far from being relatively ordinary people and I hate the idea of hitting the reset button.

Sorry, I have a lot of feelings about this.

Nothing to be sorry for! I completely agree with you - I do not like the idea of a reset button at all and it it does I happen I will just pretend it ain't so! Personal headcanon :D
