r/StargateSG1

So, we all know from the S03 episode "Crystal Skull" that Daniel's able to prove he's still present by having his Grandfather relay the contents of a conversation Gen. Hammond has with either Kayla or Tessa (I forget which), where she invites him to see his school play. Hammond has to decline, explaining that he's searching for a friend, but Daniel (through Nick) intimates that if they go on the mission right away, then they may be done in time for the play. Do you guys think the good General made it in time?

Some more info?

Ok I wanna know this ...Jack kept getting promoted Carter kept getting promoted yet Daniel and Teal'c they never got anything. They never got any kind of acknowledgements no awards no metals for all they did. Why??????

Hi folks,

I have watched the first five seasons of SG-1, and so far, I really like the Stargate Universe.

But there is one minor detail that I keep thinking about each time it is mentioned, and that is the cost of the Stargate Program.

It has been repeatedly discussed that the Stargate Program costs the US-Government a ton of money and they keep needing to justify its continued operations.

But let’s look at what the Stargate Program actually needs:

• They need a crew of scientists to operate the Stargate and research the discoveries made by the SG teams.
• They need a secure location to hide the Stargate.
• They need some military forces to guard the Stargate.
• And then they need around 20 small teams of SG-Teams.

And that’s basically it. They don’t have starships, they don’t need to construct new stargates, nothing of the sort.

Actually, the Stargate Program should be a relatively cheap operation. Maybe ten times the cost of a normal military base, and the US military already has around 800 of them anyway.

So, where is all that money going?

I finally finished this last week and even though o’neill wasn’t really in the last seasons his “sarcastic quips” annoyed me until the very end. I think I laughed on two occasions at something he said why would anyone in tv allow that kind of ad-libbing? and what was the deal with >!his and carter’s “slow burn” if you can even call it that?!< I have a lot to say about this show but o’neill was my biggest gripe

Can anyone tell me exactly how many boyfriends she had? She had the one with Nareem she had one with the ancient who snuck into her house and she had married but the only reason she had martoof was because of the goa'uld julinar. I thought that one was stupid. Martoof instantly loved her because of her looks..and Nareem acted like he never seem a woman before. And the ancient..... dude never got laid in his life. He never talked to her but fell in love with her? And then there was Pete. OH I hated him with a passion! He was a control freak and demanded answers as to what she did for a living stalking her and she broke the rules telling him about the star gate when he did not deserve iT! Her father deserved it more! And Pete got to know because he SPIED AND STALKED HER? PFFT. The only thing that was good was when she FINALLY dated Jack. But then she basically cheated on him when Martoof came around grrrrrr

I tried to find a picture of the hand and cut but couldn't find any. Does anyone remember episode 1969. She has a cut from daniels knife when the kid on the planet " the first step" I think it's called. He grabbed Daniels knife, she tried to get it back Daniel sneezed kid got scared dropped it and cut her. In the next episode 1969 general hammond brings up her hand to ask how it feels....I'm sorry but butterfly stitches don't seem right for that cut. Stitches and a gauze wrap seems more appropriate AND to me it looks infected . IF it was real that is. Any opinions? They screwed up on that one.

On the episode of stargate.sg1 "SPIRITS" WHY did Samantha have to be so rude to Tenany about talking to Zales and takia? She did not seem to want to respect their ways. She even got attitude when Tenany told her to speak her question to the wolf. And the as she was walking away she said" I guess we wait til the bird says yes or no" she was SOOOO rude. I wanted to slap her

I’m not a sci-fi (or fantasy) newbie by any means. I’m a Star Trek fan since TOS first aired and a fan of Star Wars since day one on Tatooine. I am also a certified Browncoat, and in the age of AI, have what I feel is a healthy fear of Cylons. But somehow, I only now am getting around to the Stargate franchise. I’m a couple of episodes away from finishing Season 10, before jumping into Stargate Atlantis.

So, my question is this, because I haven’t talked about the show with other fans yet: Everybody knows that this show is a total laugh riot, right? Maybe not as over the top as Galaxy Quest, but with a bit less camp, nearly as funny imho as Xena and Hercules used to be. The last couple of seasons aren’t perhaps as funny, but it’s an open secret that they played a lot of it for laughs, right? ((Examples: O’Neill’s quippiness, Carter’s technobabble, Daniel’s dithering and nerdiness, and the best of all, Teal’c’s single-brow lift as he deeply intones, “Indeed.”)

Thanks

Edit - Corrected typo: O’Neill. Thanks to alert commenters below

My wife and I just watching Sg1. Only upto season 8 so far.

But we are travelling to Colorado soon.
I know that NORAD is not public access, but we really want to take a photo of the tunnel entrance, even if its far in background.

But does anyone know where the best place would be to take such a photo (without getting arrested)

What if the SGC went ahead with the Eurondan alliance? SG-1 establishes contact and the initial deal but leaves after that. The SGC send more heavy water and receive the device with the eurondan knowledge to make heavy water generators this achieving fusion, the power for defense shields and the medicine which can heal wounds in a matter of hours or days rather than weeks or months.

This has been asked before and I’m not interested in the moral argument (it is wrong to make deals with genocidal lunatics despite what NATO has done in the past (I say NATO because pinning operations paper clip and dragonfly solely on the Americans isn’t fair))

Also not interested in the idea ‘it removes the stakes from a storytelling point of view’

Having the Eurodan tech would render oil useless, the effects on the global economy might be serious initially until the world has a whole switches over. With less money being spent maintaining military power abroad on Earth the SGC gets more funding for more units, off world bases and R&D.

The X-30- programme churns out more ships at a higher rate, nothing serious, instead of there being one X-303 at antartica there are 2/3 and perhaps one X-304 to take on Anubis.

Other areas of tech take off, a moon base established perhaps? What else may be the result of this?

Just curious to people's opinions lol mine were vala and Dr fraser

Am I the only one that will say Comtrya when happy or excited about something every once and a while irl?

So, after the Replicator attack, Russia ended up with the original Giza Stargate and DHD. The Antarctica Stargate was moved to SGC, but where is the Antarctica DHD? Why wasn’t it moved to SGC when the second Stargate was discovered?

One of my latest Stargate-inspired creations

Fully 3D printed, hand painted and fitted with an integrated LED core.

I wanted it to feel like an actual Goa’uld/Tok'ra healing device glowing with alien energy.

Everything was assembled and painted by hand.

I tried to make the front as accurate as possible, but the back side is a bit more cosplay-friendly than the original prop.

I’m just rewatching Atlantis atm, and got thinking. Why didn’t any computer games come about for the franchise. Out of a hell of a lot of shows, developers could go absolutely anywhere with a story from the Stargate franchise and as long as it had all the right aspects then I think it would be one hell of a game. You have the Goa’uld in the Milky Way or Wraith/Replicators in Pegasus for enemies or potentially have a one off enemy just for the game.

I know they briefly skirted with the idea, and I swear I remember some sort of demo for a Stargate game (correct me if I’m wrong). But I’m thinking a Stargate game similar to something like how Mass Effect worked, would look awesome. 3 game over arching story haha

Was it just to do with lack of popularity at the time? With a new show coming at some point soon, I think it would be a great time to have one 😄
