I originally wrote this series for GateWorld last year to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Stargate.
The sci-fi movie started the journey in 1994 but it’s the television series that kept it going in the years following, via Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universe. Even though no new episodes of these shows have aired since 2007, 2009 and 2011 respectively, it is still an incredibly popular franchise, with dedicated fans all over the world. So, I decided I wanted to throw the spotlight on these fans as they joined together to celebrate their favourite moments and characters.
The series (without sounding boastful) was incredibly well received by fans – from my initial call for volunteers to answer a few questions, to the final articles. It was also picked up by some of the cast and crew which was amazing to discover and helped prove that the show is still loved by many of us.
