Stargate SG-1 Discussion

[long_time_DNC]

Agreed... and I just watched "The Other Guys" - which made me laugh out loud with all the Star Trek lines. Particularly "Great, I'm a Red Shirt!"

That episode ("The Other Guys") has a ton of great lines in it, I agree...

And ironic that the Trekker ultimately ends up on Enterprise!

Didn't even tie that together, but yes!

I started the episode and said "Dr. Phlox!" and then he starts talking about "worshiping at the altar of Roddenberry!"

Thats what gets me about some people running down shows or movies... It's entertainment, don't question...

It's good if the speculative science stays consistent and doesn't get changed from one episode to another just for the sake of the script. SG-1 tried to stay consistent.

Sure there were some differences between the original movie and the series, but they made a better series because of the changes.

And they totally ruled on handling of story arcs, bar none.

Yeah, SG-1 was very good with the speculative science staying consistent through most of it; Atlantis lost some of that in many ways, AND SGU went off the deep end in that regard.

I just watched Allegiance, what so far was my favorite episode of Season 6. Oh, "The Other Guys" was funny, but this was very good.

Another excellent episode -- Prometheus. And Q er... John De Lancie.. is the perfect guy to get blown out an airlock.

 

[long_time_DNC]

He was about as good a "bad guy" as Maybourne was early on...

But I grew to like Maybourne. Simmons? Not so much.

 

[dfergie]

Rosyln would airlock Simmons in a heartbeat...

Yep, never liked Simmons... Maybourne became sorta likeable after he lost his authority.

 

[rockymtnhigh]

I agree. The Jack and Maybourne interactions were always funny. Simmons was annoying. And to be honest, John De Lancie is type-cast in my mind. Always Q.

 

[long_time_DNC]

Yep, especially the "Starsky and Hutch" lines they used in a couple of episodes. I have the same issue with De Lancie...maybe he did it intentionally, but he's always Q to me as well. TNG, SG1, Torchwood...he's always Q...

I remember him as Eugene Bradford on Days of our Lives.

Apparently you either don't have, or don't listen to that little voice in your head about what things to keep to yourself

My mom watched it when I was a kid and we only had one TV, so I watched it.

 

[dfergie]

My Mom watched it too... it was on at lunch time so...

This is when you use the " my wife/girlfriend makes me watch it with her" excuse.

lol You guys are funny My hubby walks into the room when I am watching my recorded soaps and insists I dont bother turning them off because there is nothing he wanted to watch anyway. Then he is glued to the screen.... he evan has nicknames for some of the characters. Of course he would never admit that to anyone either.
