This right here is the best thread on X. #SaveStargate

MEDIA: HERE IS YOUR REMINDER TO WRITE AN ARTICLE FOR THE TWO-MONTH MARK (Aug 2, 2026) SINCE MARTIN GERO'S STARGATE SERIES CANCELLATION. THE #SaveStargate FAN CAMPAIGN REMAINS STRONG/ACTIVE. READ ON... The #SaveStargate campaign is a fan-led effort (centered on savestargate.com) to urge Amazon MGM Studios to reverse the cancellation of Martin Gero’s new Stargate continuation series (or otherwise revive the franchise with the original creative approach). It began immediately after the June 2, 2026 Variety report that the project—greenlit in November 2025, with a completed writers’ room and pre-production underway—was not moving forward, due to concerns it would lack broad appeal beyond the existing fanbase. Amazon has remained publicly silent on the campaign. Key measurable statistics and milestones (as of late July 2026, roughly two months after the announcement) include the following. AUGUST 2, 2026 WILL MARK THE TWO-MONTH MARK SINCE THE MARTIN GERO STARGATE CANCELLATION REPORT VIA VARIETY. Petition Signatures The primary Change.org petition (“Save Stargate with Martin Gero”) has approximately 116,516+ verified signatures as of July 30, 2026. Secondary petitions (including a France-originated one) added tens of thousands more; cumulative totals across main petitions were reported approaching or exceeding ~150,000 by late June 2026. Fundraising The primary independent GoFundMe (organized by James Kerfoot for awareness efforts such as banners and advertising) has raised over $19,000 (reported at $19,185 of a ~$19K goal, from 517+ donors). Earlier figures showed $11,000+ after the initial flyover goal of $4,500 was more than doubled. Social Media and Trending Activity (Primarily X/Twitter) The hashtag #SaveStargate saw coordinated “tweetstorms” (often weekly, timed to events) and sustained daily use. It trended globally in early June (notably around June 10), reaching as high as the worldwide top 10, #2 in Norway, #4 in France, #8 in the US (and at points #7), plus strong showings in Puerto Rico, Switzerland, New Zealand, and elsewhere. Volume has been in the thousands of posts overall in the weeks following the cancellation, with ongoing replies/quotes tagging Amazon MGM Studios and Prime Video accounts. High-engagement posts from cast members and organizers frequently received thousands of likes/views. Activity remains active into late July, including during San Diego Comic-Con weekend. Real-World Events and Visibility Actions June 16, 2026: Fan-funded aerial banner plane (“#SaveStargate. Fans Want Martin Gero”) and in-person campaign public gathering at Amazon MGM Studios in Culver City, California. A related livestream drew over 92,000 viewers. June 27, 2026: Times Square (New York) digital billboards and rally, featuring franchise-themed messaging (e.g., “Unscheduled Off-World Cancellation”) plus and in-person campaign public gathering. July 18, 2026: First major international stop, including a campaign rally near the London Eye (UK). July 24–25, 2026 (San Diego Comic-Con period): Banner flyover over the convention center area, public gatherings/happy hour events, and a coordinated “#SaveStargate Day” with positive content postings. Additional presence and related activities (including RPG content) were reported. July 25, 2026: Germany “sky art” flight with a creative sky art actions, using the plane’s flight path / ground track to “write” or draw the message “saveᐰ” (Save + the Stargate chevron symbol) in the sky. The message was primarily visible online by tracking the aircraft live on sites such as Flightradar24 and ADS-B Exchange (globe.adsbexchange.com). Fans shared screenshots and videos of the path forming the message in real time. Further events were planned (including a classified “Space” entry around early August 2026). Organizers emphasized respectful, organized actions and provided templates for letters/emails. Cast, Crew, and Media Support Public backing from actors across SG-1, Atlantis, and Universe, including Michael Shanks, Christopher Judge, Rachel Luttrell, Robert Patrick, David Hewlett, Joe Flanigan, Simone Bailly, and others (plus producers such as Joseph Mallozzi and Brad Wright commenting on the situation). Note that Martin Gero still works for Amazon and may have contractual and professional obligations preventing his comments. Coverage in outlets including Variety (original cancellation report), Deadline, Collider, CBR, IGN, The A.V. Club, Cosmic Book News, GateWorld, Dial The Gate, Radio Times, ScreenRant, ComicBook.com, The Verge, Dark Horizons, Empire Online, Bleeding Cool, TV Insider, Kotaku, Fandom Pulse, SciFiPulse.net, San Diego Comic-Con Unofficial Blog, Stargate-Fusion.com and others. French media and streaming data also featured (e.g., SG-1 charting highly in France around the cancellation announcement, with promotional activity tied to major events like the FIFA World Cup 2026). Note: Cast and crew support have been 100% professional in their posts and comments. Geographic Reach and Broader Context Strongest visible activity in the US (California, New York, Comic-Con), France (petitions, charts, community organization), and the UK, with global participation reflected in trending data and international rallies. Supporting context cited by fans includes ongoing demand signals such as Netflix re-licensing of SG-1 episodes earlier in 2026 and continued chart performance of the older series. The campaign remains active and organized as of July 30, 2026, with the official site providing action guides focused on the petition, respectful social posting with the single hashtag, funding awareness efforts, and recruiting new viewers. Exact real-time totals (especially social media volume) fluctuate, and Amazon has not publicly reversed the decision or issued a detailed response to the fan efforts. Social Media Trending Trending Performance: June 10, 2026 (first major coordinated tweetstorm, organized with strong French community involvement): Reached the global top 10 on X (reported as high as #8 worldwide). Country rankings included: #2 in Norway #4 in France #8 in the United States (with some reports of #7 at peaks) #8 in Puerto Rico #12 in Switzerland #21 in New Zealand June 16, 2026 (Amazon MGM Studios Culver City, CA banner flyover + tweetstorm): Hovered around #5 worldwide during the peak of the event. Volume and Sustained Activity Thousands of posts overall on X since early June (rough approximations from observers and campaign summaries; one mid-July estimate referenced ~33K+ posts in some tallies, with broader “engagement” figures around 68K+ cited by fans). Sustained daily/weekly use into late July 2026, including regular coordinated “tweetstorms” (often weekly, frequently on Wednesdays). Noticeable presence in replies and quotes under official Amazon MGM Studios and Prime Video posts. Ongoing activity as of July 30, 2026, with fans continuing to post, reply, and share event content across social media platforms and websites. Engagement Highlights Michael Shanks early #SaveStargate post: Over 4,500+ likes and 30,000+ views within hours. Other cast-supported posts (Rachel Luttrell, Robert Patrick, Christopher Judge, etc.) regularly reached thousands of likes/views. Recent example (Michael Shanks, late July): Approximately 1,700+ likes and 30,000+ views. Amazon MGM Studios Culver City, CA flyover livestream (June 16): Over 92,000+ viewers. High-engagement fan and organizer posts during major events (Times Square, SDCC, Germany sky art) frequently reached hundreds to low thousands of likes/reposts. Cross-Platform and Coordination Notes Strong organization from French and broader European fan communities (e.g., Stargate-Fusion, Stargate Now Europe), which helped drive early global trending. Amplification via YouTube live streams (Dial the Gate and others covering flyovers and events), Instagram, Facebook groups, and Discord for real-time coordination (including flight tracking for the Germany sky art on July 25, 2026). Campaign guidance consistently emphasized a single clear hashtag (#SaveStargate), tagging Amazon MGM / Prime Video where appropriate, and positive/personal messaging to maximize visibility without spam flags. The recent announcement of a forthcoming NEW Stargate podcast by Michael Shanks (Stargate's Dr. Daniel Jackson) and David Read (Stargate fandom "Dial The Gate" site/historical records keeper) has ranked Top Five trending on X in the U.S. The SaveStargate campaign continues until Martin Gero's Stargate continuation series is reinstated and re-greenlighted. Gero's Stargate series was officially announced Nov 2025, then canceled mid-production on June 2, 2026.

Wonderful work! #SaveStargate

10 YEARS OF GET INTO GATE! 10 years ago, four mates sat down to record a podcast about Stargate SG-1. We had no idea where that first episode would lead. Fast forward a decade and more than 350 episodes later and we've reached a milestone none of us ever imagined. #SaveStargate

Learn it. Know it. Live it. - Brad Hamilton, Full Hot Orator #SaveStargate

I knew @Jack2LOneill was right! @JeffBezos , your people at @amazon are screwing up a HUGE IP in Stargate! I know this isn't your dept, but fans worldwide are fighting to make #SaveStargate a reality. Please step in here, Stargate has always brought HOPE. Something WE all need.

First and foremost, thank you to everyone who took the time to tell me how gravity works. My high school physics education was, in hindsight, woefully inadequate. Thus, while I respectfully defer to your sanctimonious sermonizing and angry tirading, I can't help but point out that even though this conspiracy theory has no grounding - for seven seconds on August 12th, neither will we. Likely, you're right and nothing happens. But what if you're wrong and 10:33 a.m. on the day finds you sailing skywards like my grandmother, a former circus clown, that time she was shot out of cannon? Do you really want to find yourself floating about the thermosphere with your significant other berating you for "not listening to Joe?". You owe it to everyone to, at the very least, take the following simple precautions: 1. Avoid carbonated beverages on the day. 2. Empty your pockets of loose change. 3. Drain your pool. 4. Make sure the toilet lid is down. 5. Install seatbelts on your office chairs. 6. Super-glue your car to the driveway. 7. Nail every piece of furniture to the floor. Wrap fragile household items and elderly family members in bubble wrap. 8. Outfit your loved ones and pets with jet packs. Parachutes are the cheaper alternative, but not as cool. If parachutes are still out of your price range, then invest in a helmet so that at least it will make it easier to identify you through dental records. 9. What comes up must come down. More than likely on your car. Make sure your insurance is up to date and includes a Skyfall Comprehensive rider. 10. Move to Australia. They're already upside-down relative to the rest of the planet, so when gravity flips you'll be the only ones right-side-up.

@servant_777 👍🏻😃

@RedneckTauri ...Still want flying cars soon. Also, time to check anyone I know acting like that for those.

Holy. Crap. Stargate is a documentary!!! #SaveStargate

Among wild conspiracy theories, this is truly the wildest. Project Anchor is purportedly a secret NASA project preparing for a gravitational anomaly on August 12th, when Earth will lose gravity for 7 seconds due to the intersection of gravitational waves from two black holes. Prepare accordingly!

@BaronDestructo Up will be down and down will be up. Sounds about right when looking at all the @AmazonMGMStudio shenanigans of the past couple of months… #SaveStargate

The show we always knew we needed #SaveStargate

This is awesome! #SaveStargate

The good stuff 👍🏻 #SaveStargate
