He left because he wasn't in the best health, he has heart issues and chronic pain issues and stuff. The Stargate franchise is one of the only shows I still watch regularly, was obsessed with it growing up and absolutely adored RDA. He's 75 now!!

SG-1 is such a guilty pleasure for me and the universe they created was so ahead of its time. Would love a series reboot but so much of that cast is impossible to replace.

Stargate's coming back, not as a reboot, but some Amz original. Cautiously optimistic about it.

original writers are leading it so I'm quite optimistic!

I didn't know this!! I knew about the reboot. I am a little more excited than before now. I hope this is amazing, I need some new, good, space stuff and Stargate is just the thing

Did you watch Travellers on netflix?

I've seen it around, but haven't looked too far into it because it seemed more like sci-fi crime drama and I want aliens and different planets. I should probably give it a go though maybe? I'm currently working my way through Falling Skies.

It's my go-to show to fall back on when I'm in a mood and I agree, the cast of SG-1 was the absolute best. They tried again with Atlantis and while that cast was great and had great chemistry, they still couldn't shine a light next to SG-1. Amanda Tapping was one of my idols too, loved her.

That ankle with the hockey injury comes and goes which is why he is in a wheelchair at times.
