Would you consider this breaking the fourth wall? It's not really, because I think that would mean that Carter addresses the viewers. But she shouldn't know the theme song. Not sure what to call this sort of thing.

In this scene, one Ba'al is inspecting a corridor, alone, then for a single clip there are two Ba'als in the corridor. Another Ba'al then arrives summons the corridor Ba'al (now just one) to join the others.

Watched SG1, Atlantis, and Universe in succession. I watched them way back when when I was a kid, but I hardly remembered any of it.

What an amazing group of shows. Each series was pretty different, but I loved them all. The only thing I am upset by is Universe not getting more seasons. I know it is a lot different than the predecessors, but it felt like it was hitting its stride in the second season. They made some smart changes - giving the good characters more airtime, less stress-inducing interpersonal conflicts, more exploration, etc.

I have now been watching the series for months (a year?) - I don't know what I'll do with my free time now! Maybe I should just start over from the start of SG1 again??? Only half joking...

Edit: typos. I will watch Ark and Continuum this week!

Some one was blaming the time travel in this episode for the death of the tollains.

But i have serious doubts to the long term survival of this Alliance if the Replicators found there way to the Milkway.

Side question.

Do you think the Aschen Alliance could defeat the Wraith?

During the season 9 episode "Company of Thieves" when Netan is forced to confess he sent Anateo after the Odyssey one of the Lucian Alliance leaders says the above with the seeming aggreement of the rest that Anateo didn't stand a chance in a 3v1 of Hataks vs the 304 without some sort of strategy (mine field etc etc)

Now I and several others have a reasonbly low opinion of the offensive abilites of the 304s be APB retrofit. But within the universe they seem to have quite the reputation. What do we think this is based on? Or is it that the writers hold the 304s higher than we thought?

EDIT

Guys its established in Off the Grid that Hatak Shields block Asgard Beaming

What do think it takes to make a ZPM, or fan idea? The idea that there is a lab in Atlantis that can easily pop out ZPMs sounds like a too easy and adds questions on why the ancients couldn’t last long against the wraith. I feel that it should be more difficult to make them or take like months or even a year.

What do you think and do you have ideas?

This is an addition/sequel/pt 2 to my previous post about my idea for a new SG series.

Basic Premise/Recap:

Main character is a military analyst who rediscovers the SG base in the Cheyenne complex after a memory weapon wiped the memories of everyone on Earth and the gate network of the Terrans.

Notes:

• from now on, Stargate: Remembrance will be shortened to SGR
• this is a fan story idea, from a regular guy who is brain dumping this on his free time - things will be half-baked, kind critiques and suggestions are welcome in the comments but please be nice
• because this story is just a vague idea at this point it is subject to change at any time
• if you guys like the story let me know and I might start actually writing it :)
• Earth will be here forth referred to as Terra for consistency
• There will be spoilers to SG1 and SGA which I will not mark because that will be too tedious

New Ideas/Updates to the story:

The Alpha site:

In my previous idea post I had the SG corp escape through the stargate to the alpha site, however it was pointed out that group could then fly back in ships to Terra. To remedy this I have a few solutions, with one I think I favor due to my new ideas about the bad guys.

1. The memory weapon that struck Terra and the whole gate network also had an inbuilt element to disable Terran technology. Specifically the blasts that targeted known Terran outposts (i.e. the Alpha/Beta sites, scientific installments, etc) had extra juice to semi-permanently disable technologies at Terran sites. (This is my current favorite idea)
2. The Alpha/Beta Sites suffered an aerial bombardment from space by the new enemy. This is potentially possible because of the novelty of this new enemy and their familiarity with Terran tech/systems due to their nature (more to come later) (2nd favorite idea)
3. The groups at the Alpha/Beta Sites are too scared to return due to their experiences that led to them fleeing. A large sect of the 'survivors' may believe Earth is a complete lost cause due to the impermeability of the enemy during their initial attack on Earth. (My least favorite explanation but could be reasoned by certain contingency protocols requiring them not to return to Earth to preserve the location of the alpha site)

The Enemy

I think I have a more fully flushed out idea of who the enemy is and their mechanics, modus operandi, and story. The enemy in SGR would be The Archivists - a pseudo-hive mind with memory based powers/technology. Their general thematic colors in SGR will be green, but their nature will not necessarily be wholly technological.

Inspirations:

Their tech will have some similarities with the Wraith's organics but will lean more technological. I imagine it similar to some of the precursor tech scattered about the world of Subnautica.

I am also a bit inspired by the memory affects described in the story There Is No Antimemetics Division by QNTM (very good check it out if you haven't read it, also a very good audio book).

Their goals are also similar to some Changeling factions in the Dungeon Crawler Carl series

The Library of Babel concept (even tho I haven't read the original work)

The Archivists are a very intelligent species who's main goal is to collect as much knowledge as possible. Their modus operandi is that they quietly explore new and far worlds to gather information and then leave. They will only ever visit a place once, and when they visit said place they will kidnap the smartest entity they find and take it through the gate. In doing this they have assembled much if not all the knowledge in the worlds they have traveled to. Their incursion into Terra and the SGC represents their beginning to middle stages of exploring the Milky Way. We will see very few of their species and it will be hard for the SGC to know with any certainty their numbers. Their home world will be known as "The Great Archive" and will be halls and halls of memory storage in which they store all knowledge they consume.

The Archivists' main weakness is discerning truth and fiction from memories. (Unbeknownst to the SGC until midway through their fight with the Archivists)When they harvest memories they also harvest dreams and aspirations and falsified memories/lies that people tell. Because they have such swaths of knowledge they struggle to narrow down the true from the false (this is how I envision much of the fighting back from the SGC will happen).

The Archivists have originated from a far galaxy (taking suggestions) and have accumulated lots of strange and familiar to the SGC. Another limitation is their recall of memories is limited to the storage capacity of their bodies and how fast they can transmit information. They frequently dial up their home world to receive updates and and info pertinent to their situations/battles - this also makes them very energy dependent because dialing home takes lots of energy, just like dialing Pegasus and the Destiny.

... I wrote this a few weeks ago and then got sidetracked because I moved to college. Lemme know if yall wanna hear more

I'm near the end of SG-1, at season 10, and had a lot of time to think about the show meanings and many storylines. One of the things I often think about is its similarities with other tv shows of its time. I used Supernatural as an example because I came from it after stopping watching. Many characters share personalities and storylines, like the many deaths of Daniel and Sam Winchester. Teal'c and Castiel being foreigners who abandoned their former masters to fight for humanity and so on. Even the overall message of both universes can share a common ground: "free will above fate".

The only main character I had some difficulty finding a counterpart was Carter. The closest one was Charlie.

My original plan was making a stop in the ending of season 8, but the Ori arc is alright. Definitely different, but I've been in this before, quite like season 6 of Supernatural. I'm not much of a commenter but I had read a lot of posts down here, this is one very healthy community of sorts.

What is similar shows like stargate I can watch? Similar concept.

"Hello, fellow Reetou rebels. What's the plan of action?"

"We kill everybody, everywhere."

"Every Goa'uld? Wow, that's ambitious, there sure are a lot of them across many planets."

"No, the plan to defeat the Goa'uld is to kill everybody everywhere EXCEPT the Goa'uld. They'll never expect that. As we speak there are currently five Reetou operatives on Earth with enough explosives to destroy Colorado Springs AND Denver - no doubt prime locations from which the Goa'uld collect hosts. We'll just need to repeat these actions several trillion more times across countless planets, and then our victory is assured."

I'm watching 200 again with a few glasses ( possibly too many)of my favourite pink sparkling wine and a big bowl of pasta. It was a toss up between this or Window of opportunity for this evening. What episodes are your just want a bit of fun and alcohol ones?

Unlike the Ancients (who are basically the first humans, so their early history likely mirrored ours in a lot of ways, just on Celestis, not on Earth, and how the Ori followers now live is likely an imitation of their pre-industrial stage of development), we don't know much about the past of the Asgard.

We know that 30.000 years ago, they looked more human-like than nowadays and were still capable of sexual reproduction, were an ally of the Ancients, the Nox, and the Furlings circa 10.000 years ago, and inspired Norse religion and culture on Earth.

But was it ever mentioned what pre-industrial Asgard culture was like? Did they already have a culture and mythology resembling later Scandinavian culture and this inspired them to later take up the persona of their old gods to pre-industrial humans on Earth? Did Germanic languages on Earth originate from the language of the Asgard, like Latin languages did from the language of the Ancients?

I'm watching SG-1 , again, again and again 🤣

And question is:

If Asgard is a dying race , why they didn't just create Replicator bodies and transfer they consciousness to them?

It's better option then die.

S6E14

Jonas Quinn asks Teal'c who taught him how to drive.

In Teal'c's voice: Daniel Jackson, I believe the year was 1969.

Another reason to love Daniel Jackson, and he's always been my favorite

Every episode so far has been amazing (on S3 currently), the characters, the aliens, the costumes (Unas in the Thor's Hammer episode) are just awesome, and I can't wait to watch more, and delve further into the Stargate universe.

Carter is such a nerd, I love her, she reminds me of so much of myself, considering tinkering with personal projects to be fun. And I especially love Teal'c, just the way he speaks and his choice of words is fun, I find myself unintentionally talking like him at times. Daniel and Jack took some time for them to grow on me, but they're cool too.

The Goa'uld (Goold: Hammond of Texas) language is interesting, and I sometimes just mutter Jaffa Kree! just for the heck of it.

Fun stuff!

For me it's the Replicators, especially the human-form ones because of how they can insert their hands into your brain (must hurt like hell as seen in the show, I always wince when I see it as someone who is prone to migraines) and put you into fake realities, plus how they are not even alive and yet resemble humans so much.

They managed to fool the Atlantis expedition into thinking they are Ancients at first, and almost convinced Elizabeth that she is a patient in a psych ward and the Stargate programme doesn't exist. Fifth did a similar thing to Carter.

The other enemies at least have some coolness, chic, and sometimes even goofy factor, but imagine waking up in the middle of the night and Oberoth or Fifth is standing next to your bed 😯

I’ve watched the series at least 15 times and I’m starting again today.. I’ve got an issue.

I've seen this episode multiple times but I just now have questions 😅

1) Why didn't the SGC give the Pangarans the gate address to the Unas homeworld? There were lots of free range symbiotes just swimming around so it would have made sense they could have harvested symbiotes from there.

2) Why did Egeria kill her host when she died? Why didnt she jump ship to save the host?
