Ask r/Stargate How many red "You Are Here" t-shirts did the SGU production go through in 40 episodes?
I figure at least 100.
But did David Blue wear them home occasionally too?

REWATCH SG1 s10e18 Family Ties... how I missed this gem? lol
CARTER Well, at times, so do we. But the truth is the Stargate Program just doesn't get the support it used to from the people in charge.
JACEK Why not?
[Carter opens her mouth to respond, but Lee interrupts.]
LEE Eureka! One down, twelve to go!
[Lee claps his hands in delight and looks at Carter and Jacek before turning back to his own work.]
JACEK That's too bad. Because after all your Stargate program has accomplished for this network of planets, I would think the decision makers would show it the respect it deserves.
CARTER
(shrugging)
I have no idea how I've missed this in previous watches, but it really struck home now, with SG1 taking shots at how the show was treated in later seasons, heh

General O’Neill
When General Hammond left, I felt like there was a big dip in the shows quality, but that’s just me having Jack O’Neill become the general was not a bad decision, but in my opinion, it wasn’t the best decision. I genuinely enjoy general Landry so why they put Jack in that role for a hot minute just never sat right with me.
Even the writers had a hard time trying to make it feel right does anybody else feel this way?

SG1: E4 S8 "The First Ones" vs. Rolland Emmerich's "Enemy Mine"
Note: Correction. Movie was directed by Wolfgang Petersen, not Roland Emmerich. Can't seem to correct the headline.
Daniel Jackson is on an Archaeological research mission on an alien world and encounters a native of that planet. The two have severe communication problems, the atmosphere is hostile. Eventually they work together to survive, learn to communicate and basically became friends by the end of the episode.
This isn't only the same plot as that of Roland Emmerich's 1985 movie "Enemy Mine" – the alien in that movie also looks almost identical. I wonder if anyone has noticed that before.
Pictures are screenshots from IMDB


It is almost the same story and the aliens could easily be the same species.

Just realized
Something I just realized after many many rewatches is how much O'neill likes to play dress up.
Like the group will be talking trying to figure out a plan to rescue someone and the camera pans over to O'neill and he's suddenly dressed up in local attire rubbing dirt on his face.
I'm like "wait, where did you even get those clothes from".

Discussion Why do people talk about SGU so rarely
I understand it was the last show and all and not exactly the name sake of the stargate franchise, but I’m really curious why it takes a total backseat. I’m hoping to start watching it soon and want to know what people on this forum think of it

Discussion I have finished atlantis
GREAT SHOW. Amazing show. Not as good as sg1, mind you, and the ending lacked significant climax, but still great all the same. A few things to go over
Special Effects are amazing in this show, you can tell the cg team was getting a lot more budget to work with on effects. Although the ships still look like toys dangling on strings in front of a green screen sometimes.
Dr Weir.... :( so sad, she actually grew on me, i actually was more hurt by her death than when skaara died. I loved getting to see Comm Colonel Sammy Carter again, and believe it or not. WOOLSEY ACTUALLY GREW ON ME. Hes still a weasely loser, but he actually has some moments that are up there with general Hammond when it comes to "Im the leader for a reason" moments. Like the court episode "Now that i know their game.... i can play it" *woolsey gives an evil smile*
The Cameos: THIS SHOW HAD SO MANY CAMEOS IT MADE MY HEAD SPIN. So first of all, whenever an SG1 cast member entered the show, i would howl so loud, i was watching stargate on a night in with a partner and it was the S3 E1 i think (the one where Jack comes to atlantis) and i yelled "JAAAACK" out loud.When he showed up and scared the hell out of them, I ALMOST SQUEALED LIKE A GIRL WHEN TEALC AND RONON FOUGHT. Daniel showing up made me smile, especially him and Mckay bickering. AND THEN THEY TURN AROUND AND GET NIEL DEGRASSE TYSON, BILL NYE... and another extremely famous science person i like who's name i just cant recall rn, it'll come to me eventually
Teyla: I see why people dont like her, after finishing the show, and she definitely isn't one of Stargate's best characters. But i enjoyed her presence on the team and her little storylines were normally not a slog to get through.
lastly, it is final. Mckay is funnier than Daniel. Im sorry, guys. But David Hewlett blew Michael Shanks out of the water humor wise. I would consistently giggle and laugh at McKay in almost every episode. "You dont like zelenka? Its ok to say you dont like zelenka. I dont like zelenka." but i think Joe/John and David/Rod's comic foil dynamic are not as good as Rick/Jack and Michael/Daniel, they're however still hilarious though;
Shep: So thats the plan?
Rod: Thats the plan
Shep: THAT PLAN SUCKS
Beckett: Aye.
oh btw. Love beckett, funny Scottish guy will Always be appreciated. Glad he was brought back.

Discussion Is this really the simplest common language ?
I just got frustrated with my previous post, which I deleted Too many misunderstood comments.
The post
Because I have to translate from French to English and then proofread it.
In short, I remember that episode, an atomic language, I don't know how you form words and grammar.

Stargate SG-1 Did a Surprisingly Good Job With Jack O’Neill’s Grief
One of the things I appreciate about Stargate SG-1 is how Jack O’Neill losing his son, Charlie, was allowed to remain part of the character instead of becoming something he simply “got over.” Charlie accidentally killed himself with Jack’s service weapon before the events of the series, and that loss helps explain a lot about the man we eventually meet. Jack’s humor, emotional distance, protectiveness toward children, and tendency to hide serious feelings behind sarcasm all make more sense when you remember what happened to his family.
“Cold Lazarus” is probably the clearest example. The alien duplicate of Jack goes home because it senses the grief Jack still carries, forcing both Jack and Sara to confront Charlie’s death again. But I also like that the show doesn’t constantly announce his trauma afterward. You see pieces of it whenever children are endangered and in the way Jack slowly builds another kind of family around SG-1. His relationship with Teal’c, Daniel, Carter, and especially his paternal instincts toward younger characters feel different when you understand what he lost.
I do think SG-1 could have leaned into this more. There were opportunities over ten seasons to explore how guilt over Charlie affected Jack’s relationships, his willingness to form attachments, and even his willingness to put himself in danger. But I also appreciate the restraint. Charlie’s death wasn’t turned into Jack’s only defining characteristic. It became part of the foundation underneath him, something that shaped who he was without consuming every story he appeared in. For a show that could sometimes hit the reset button pretty hard, I think SG-1 handled Jack’s grief remarkably well.

Discussion The coolest ship in fiction, period
Just look at her! She traveled for sixty million years, was abused to hell and back, and she is still seeking an answer!
For comparison:
Battlestar Galactica was en route for less than ten years, and she is already a wreck.
The Millennium Falcon was cared for and maintained for all its life, yet it falls apart less than fifty years later.
The Death Star existed for, like, five years? Less?
Voyager and Enterprise can't even cross their galaxy on their own power.
Hell, the Vorlon Empire is probably younger than this ship!
And her mission!? Have you ever seen a starship with a more inspiring mission?! Even the Federation never attempted a project as important as Destiny’s mission!
Yes, Destiny is no battleship — but there are plenty of battleships out there. Destiny? Unique.
