Well, that was impressive. We had a huge turnout for last night’s Stargate tweetstorm, with thousands of fans joining in from all over the world. Those who took part were treated to exclusive concept art, never before seen show footage, and surprise appearances from numerous former cast and crew. Just a few of the highlights –
Halfway through our SG-1 pitch to Showtime the fire alarm went off. We all had to go downstairs and assemble in the parking garage. When we got there, the head of the network just looked at me and said “okay, keep going…” So I did. I guess he was thinking #WeWantStargate

Hey, hang on – is this thing legit? I typed in #WeWantStargate and got an email saying "Your order has shipped and your Credit Card charged. Allow 4 business days for delivery" – Where will I put it? pic.twitter.com/7HZLMEYvK9

And many more, including Dark Matter cast members Anthony Lemke, Alex Mallari Jr, Jodelle Ferland, and Roger Cross!
We trended #1 in Australia, Canada, France, and the U.S., trended #2 in Germany, the UK and Worldwide, second only to the #BBCLeadersDebate and the always formidable BTS Army. Hollywood also took note of our efforts, resulting in a notable campaign mention on Deadline:
#WeWantStargate Trends In Worldwide Campaign To Bring Forth New ‘Stargate’ Series
Head on over and add your voice to the 86 comments already there.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped pull off this seismic storm: the aforementioned cast and crew, the Stargate Now facebook crew, the gang at Save FutureStargate Travel, the High Council of StargateNow and StargateNowEurope, and, of course, all of you.
As promised, I have some goodies to give away. Give me a day to organize. Winners will be announced in Monday’s blog entry!
So, what’s next?
Well, some much-needed R&R – and a new series ideally.
