There has been a lot of speculation and tidbits of news surrounding a new
Stargate series potentially coming to Amazon since their purchase of the MGM library.
With creator Brad Wright's pilot episode already written.
And while we patiently wait for Amazon to give him the green light,
it got us thinking about the stories Brad will be bringing us.
So when we learned the exciting news that Brad was hosting a live stream table
read with three of the original Stargate SG one cast members on the companion app.
May ay 21st
w e asked ourselves,
is there any connection here to what we may see on Amazon in the future?
And we believe there is. So you don't wanna miss this episode. and
make sure you stay tuned to the end to see how to get this awesome Stargate. Oh,
for crying out loud,

The companion apps table read on May 21st is going to be the most exciting
Stargate since.
Well, the first table read back in November.
Except this time the table is being joined by the leader of Stargate SG one,
Richard Dean Anderson as Jack O'Neil.
This is the first time he has read dialogue for his character since 2013 mobile
game Stargate Unleashed.
And it's the first appearance as Jack O'Neal since Stargate universe's first
season in 2010,
we'll show you shortly why his joining this event is important to the future of
Stargate. So just keep him in the back of your mind for a second.
If you weren't aware,
the most interesting aspect about this event is that the script we are about to
experience wasn't written by Brad Wright.
It was written by artificial intelligence. Crazy, right?
This is now the second table read of scripts created 100% by AI that was
fed the entire body of Stargate scripts and was programmed to respond as each
character might in an original script.
The idea was sparked while Brad and companion app co-creator Lawrence co were
having a working meeting.
And what started out as a funny idea, quickly became a reality last November,
the first Stargate AI table read launched thanks to Google AI's Lawrence......
The actors featured in the event included Michael shanks as Daniel Jackson,
Amanda Tapping as Samantha Carter.
David Hewlett is Rodney McKay and Jules state is Jennifer Keller.
And while the actors and the fans watching had a lot of fun.
The joke that turned into an actual event did something that hadn't been done in
a long time. It brought the Stargate family together again,
and this alone may be the key to a successful new Amazon series that helps put
the band back together.
But before we explain exactly why as well as show you a sneak peek of Amanda
tapping, reading Samantha Carter for the upcoming Stargate AI 2.
Let us first tell you that whether you're in a zoom table,
read making YouTube videos or listening to your favorite podcast video,
make sure you are listening with earbuds from this video sponsor raycon.
Again, regardless of who wrote the script is exciting enough,
but AI 2 has had some significant upgrades over the first table read six
months earlier.
Version 2.0 has been refined with a great number of more focused models,
producing scenarios and dialogue that are more coherent.
Let's take a sneak peek at the upcoming table.
Read here is Amanda tapping as Samantha Carter.
Let's see if you can figure out what gets everyone excited at the end. It
looks like the computer was able to bring back stargates original villain.
The goa'uld, this is just a taste of what's to come.
But the more important question is what is this all leading up to?
Is it just a bunch of old friends getting together to have some fun
or is there more to it?
The reality is that these AI table reads have breathed new life into the
original actors. They seem to be falling in love with their characters again.
And the more we listen to their discussions and interviews.
the more we are hearing how much they would like to reprise their roles and work
together. Again, these experiences have likely given Brad more confidence,
writing old characters into new scripts and the banter and dialogue must be
sparking a renewed creativity that we felt when we watched Stargate for the
first time.
It also wouldn't surprise us at all If Brad wrote upcoming scripts using some
inspiration from the AI and the experiences around these table reads.
Amazon now has a pilot script. the co-creator of the show,
original producers and actors who want to reprise their roles more than any time
since Stargate was taken off the air.
And a lot of these is thanks to these AI script table reads the pieces are all
in place to make this one of the easiest production decisions Amazon has ever
made. Amazon will know they have the right people to launch a series,
but what else do they need? They need to know we will show up to watch.
There is something we can all do as a fandom to help make sure you go and sign
the Amazon launch Stargate petition savethegate.org.
We will be sending the results of that petition to Amazon soon. Now.
that Stargate is ending its run on all streaming services,
send tweets to at Amazon studios asking them not only to create new Stargate,
but also to make every episode of the franchise available to fans on prime
and make sure you use hashtags. #WeWantStargate and #SavetheGate.
A flood of these requests will send a signal to decision makers that our fan
base is worth investing.
In. Is Brad Wright's AI table reads,
laying the groundwork for future Stargate on Amazon.
We believe so, but what do you think,
are you going to watch the upcoming AI event?
Do you think they're just having fun or is it the beginning of something bigger?
What types of Stargate stories would you like to see in the future?
