I randomly clicked on it one day simply because the episodes were long and I liked to leave background noise for my pet without Netflix cutting off. I watched the opening scene and thought "This is so bad it has to be satire" bird men attacking through a portal with laser weapons? Then it jumped to the extreme mysogony scene against Carter in the first episode, and I kept thinking "Its like a trainwreck, I can't look away". It oddly had me hooked though. Before I knew it I was binge watching entire seasons and loved all the different mythology and culture references. It quickly became one of my favorite series ever and I've watched the entire franchise 3 times already, about to start a 4th. I genuinely didn't expect something I thought was horrible in the 1st episode to become something I love so much
In the episode metamorphosis (season 6 episode 16), the Goa'uld Nirrti claims that she is considering using Samantha Carter as her next host. Does anyone know of a fanfiction where Carter did become a host for Nirrti?
I can't wait to hear everyone's explanations.
Too bad the SGA didn’t know any 👽 who could regularly dial to other galaxies. Didn’t Thor directly dial to home galaxy with Carter using just a handheld device? Weren’t there security cameras watching how Jack made the one-use zpm thing for the stargate when he originally visited the asgard?
So I recently did a review of Emancipation on my YouTube channel. And I got an idea. I want to cover every “bad” episodes in Stargate SG-1, and then in the end list from bad to worse.
I have had some options thrown out.
Right now it’s One False Step and 200 (yes really). But if you have any more ideas I’d love to hear them.
Also might as well shamelessly plug the video here: https://youtu.be/GMxE1GGmVms?si=WGq9ykUIGZnQcCcx
I've been thinking about watching farscape bc of Ben and Claudia. Have any of you given it a try?
In the episode the last man, When Rodney goes to stargate command and visits now in charge Lorne
Rodney says the following
McKAY: Just cut to the chase. You saw what happened in Pegasus; you know what's happening here. Do you really think this is the way it's supposed to be?8
Is the suggestion that Michael's Hybrid are now attacking the Milky Way Galaxy?
If so why? Expansion and conquering was never presented as a driver for Michael's Hybrids.
Watching the first season of SG1 and just noticed that there are two special A characters in the name, one then disappears.
Do you think this is foreshadowing to the second gate on Earth?
This single episode is peak Stargate. Not only does it organically bring a lot of plotlines together, but it's so cool and Replicator Gal is nice (RIP)
Wraith joining up with sexy lady's alliance and 2 Tau'ri warships?? Hell yeah.
I know the whoosh part will vaporize any matter (except titanium or denser?) but like where does that matter go? Does it just destabilize the atomic bonds or does it fart out the scrambled matter on the other side?
So I’m on my 3 time watching SG-1. Am I the only one who struggles with season 8?
Personally I don’t like that Janet was killed off, I whole heartedly miss Hammond (from Texas ..😅) but I understand his health was an issue. And to be completely honest, I do not recall ever watching the final seasons.
Teyla was doing the Teal’c in Pegasus first!
You'd think with how advanced the Ancients were, they would have devised a way to keep energy going indefinitely. Thoughts?
AND the struggles with the ZPMs in SGA - could they not have figured a way to manufacture the ZPMs themselves? Somebody made them before, why couldn't the expedition figure it out? All for the plot? OR an alternative power source??
ETA: if I had waited 10 minutes, I would have seen the power reserves renewing themselves when they flew into the sun...
I unironically think it was 40-60% just Holo!Thor being obtuse and defeatist and Carter applying her decades of experience putting up with O'Neill, Lee and everyone else less patient and rule-breaking than her in wrangling him into please just actually FUCKING exploring this avenue.
...that and Thor's just a scientist incidentally.A proper modelling would be a proper modelling including his intellectual proclivities and Thor was a military & diplomatic leader first.
For those who don't know, Morena Baccarin was in the pilot for It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Once you see it, you kinda can't unsee it, lol.
I've got to say, I love Carter, but that episode is just...
She's so incredibly gullible and full of hubris. The only reason why Replicarter gets away with it is because Carter buys her sob story and simultaneously thinks she is smarter.
Is it just me or, does it seem like Teal'c is annoyed with/not very fond of Col. Mitchell at the beginning?
At least in my opinion, i don’t know where it gets all the hate. I also love stargate atlantis for reference, but i wish it got the same love as Atlantis did and the story got to play out.
Thoughts?
