Stargate SG-1 Discussion

Seen on the floor, had authentic looking patches ...

Making my way through season 7 with mixed feelings knowing that the number of "true" SG-1 episodes will be short. Just finished Evolution I and II.

And decided to start watching SG:Atlantis to spread out how long it takes me to finish SG-1. I know I can start over again, but having fun with this several month journey through the whole show again.

And SG:A season 1 is pretty decent; oh, how I wish SG-1 was in HD like Atlantis is.

I finally got my son to try watching it. He loves all the other Sci Fi things so I knew he would like it if he tried it. He is on season one - I think he just watched Hathor

Dang it, I just watched the second part of Heroes, knowing full well ahead of time what the end result is, and I still got choked up at the end. Not a lot of tv can do that. Good powerful entertainment. (And I still hate Woolsey ).

 

[long_time_DNC]

Heroes is tough pair of episodes to watch, for sure. I never came to like Woolsey much at all, not even during the last season of SGA...

Agreed. Hard episodes to watch, and I just never got why the writers felt they needed to create a character like Woolsey.

The suits... SGA should have kept Weir, or left Sheppard in charge... it really wasn't as good with Carter.

 

[long_time_DNC]

Agreed...I liked Weir and Sheppard in charge. Carter seemed like an effort to hold on to/appease SG1 viewers after they axed SG1. And then they took her off and put Woolsey in charge and that was just hideous...

Just watched the first couple from season 8. "I've spent my whole life fighting the man, I can't become the man!"

 

[rockymtnhigh]

Just watched Prometheus Unbound. Loved three things: 1) A pissed off George Hammond who wanted HIS ship back; 2) the dynamics with Vala; and 3) Daniel Jackson in the super soldier armor, "Who are you?" "Mr Olo. Hans Olo." Classic stuff.

Yeah, one of my favorites as well!

I loved it at the end when he zatted her just to shut her up. Then again, if she had hit me in the nads with a fire extinguisher, I might do the same thing.

 

[long_time_DNC]

I just like her whole attitude and his reaction to it. It was obvious they were having fun with it too...

 

[rockymtnhigh]

Just finished Moebius I and II; fun episodes. Loved the Upper-midwest accents, and the "sexy librarian" look.

And I know we discussed this in the past, but it sure looked as if they thought the show was ending after season 8. And in so many ways, I kind of wish they did. It would have been the perfect end to the series.

 

[rockymtnhigh]

Sigh.... I started the Ori arc... after eight seasons of re-watching SG-1, its so disappointing to have it end like this. And not only is the intro to season 9 horrible (come on, in three episodes they have NOT explained WHAT Jack is doing yet), but the whole "Hallow the Ori" stuff is just dismal.

 

[SatelliteGAL]

Time to start on Atlantis
I didnt like the Ori Arc either but we watched and then watched the movies after!!

On season 3 of Atlantis

I will finish SG-1, but its just not going to be nearly as pleasurable. I did enjoy season 8, although I must admit basically just having the four of them in the conference room making decisions without having Gen Hammond there, made it feel like SG-1 was pretty much free to do what it wanted, as Jack never truly seemed like a general.

 

[long_time_DNC]

Jack never wanted to be "The Man"...he always liked "sticking it to The Man".

I enjoyed the Ori arc. Parts of it were a bummer, other parts were funny. C'mon, when B'aal and Adria were arguing and Sam tells them to "get a room", am I the only one who laughed?

To this day the woman who played Adria drives me nuts. Hated her on V, primarily because of her on SG-1.

I think you were the only one who liked the Ori Arc.

I liked it, it just didn't compare to earlier seasons.
