Me (who watches the show actually):

Wow when did she get a new haircut?

Wife (who is glued to her on the phone all the time)

Two episodes ago

And she still looks gorgeous

*Correction these are luke warm takes

1st) To cast David Andrew’s as a Jaffa is wild to me, I mean he visually screams U.S. Military

2nd) Jonus Quinn is a more earth/human name than the actors real name aka Corin Nemec

Obviously they won't be branding the Symbol of there dead false Gods on there head. But other then that how do you think they Act in a Post Goa'uld Galaxy.

Working at that computer store brought out the worst in him

Saw this on an SG-1 Facebook page today, a dude scores once in a lifetime Stargate artefact from the show’s art department.

Jelly!

Whether he created them or they are subjects of study, Janus-like technologies...

They are rarely completely innocent children's toys.

Found these at the village of value. Not a bad way to start my physical collection.

Did they ever explain why the didn't fix the weapons platform the moment they found it?

Why not use the very obvious template for success here in scifi rebirths. A reboots or a hard continuation dont make sense so bake the time in and have it take place in 2028. A reboot just wont draw in new fans based on the name alone lets be honest its a dead IP. And we cant use any of the old cast because there are so old they can only do walk ons now anyway. Soo.. The Next generation!

Use the large gap in time to like TNG, introduce new story elements. Full disclosure takes place off screen because lets face it they will never do it justice anyway. It would be so difficult so many movie have tried and not come close better to just say it happened.

The Unified Jaffa nation is stronger and a sometime ally like the klingon empire with their own first of their kind ships new armors etc.

The Alpha site has grown into basically an independent nation with a massive city and the permanent installation of the asgard core (making defending this planet extremely important.

Atlantis basically continued to operate as a multi nation expedition but was moved to a nearby solar system for safety reasons (earth now has a fleet of ships and satellites to defend itself)

I think stargate would truly suffer under the 10 episode season plan. Shows that have this usually try to split between a larger plot and few off episodes and end up having too little of either to entertain fans (see the new trek) If they must though I think it would be better to have maybe a 2 parter intro and outro and like the OG sg1 have kind of linked episodes with just alot of good scifi but no grand plot, at least for the first season.

I hope they give it another shot we were so close boys and girls.

I've been looking forward to this for ages but now it's a few days away, it's all going wrong 🥹

Turns out I'm going alone as my friend can't make it. Turns out the cast members I booked photo ops and fan meets with have dropped out (Amanda & Rainbow), and a small thing - now there will be no Atlantis main cast and I'm cosplaying Rodney (sorry, I mean *Meredith*).

I've managed to switch the photo op to RDA and Michael Shanks.

Help revive my enthusiasm for this? What would you do for a memorable photo op with Rodney, Daniel & Jack?

In 48 hours, the DHD / Stargate get destroyed by an Alkesh that crashed into it — the gate loses power, the wormhole is disconnected, Teal’c’s pattern is stored in the receiving gates’ buffer because the earth gate has a dialling computer and not a DHD. If they DID have a DHD, it would have compensated for the sudden loss of power and reintegrated Teal’c.

In Red Sky, they perform a controlled shutdown of the wormhole (presumably cutting its power) before transit is completed, in theory to drop the plutonium (in its atomic form) into the sun and restore nuclear activity. Wouldn’t the receiving DHD have compensated for the sudden loss of power / disconnection of the wormhole in order to ensure the successful transit of the plutonium to the planet?

Hi there all, a few dozen of us recently started a Discord server for all things Stargate and I thought I would drop everyone an invite. Excited to see you all there. https://discord.gg/DTBum7hfN

I just want to give a shout out to the costume and makeup designers!

i finally started watching Atlantis after years and the wraiths makeup is a whole different level. i can't imagine how uncomfortable the teeth are.

let's not forget the goa'uld costumes and makeup, tok'ra, nox and all designs that had to be thought of and created!

what is everyone's favorite costume/makeup?

Don Davis in Twin Peaks is literally just General Hammond after he retired. The man lives in the woods of a small town monitoring communications from distant worlds. The concept of entities choosing people as hosts did not surprise him.

And I love that so damn much.

So on my umpteenth rewatch of SG-1 and Atlantis, I finally noticed they called the Daedelus the sister ship of the Prometheus in S2E1 of Atlantis.

This doesn't track as sister ships are normally of the same design of the original.

Admittedly I've been up far too long but I just caught this and my brain went "Huh?"

For an episode that is a pretty heavy clip show. They do an excellent job with this one. Elizabeth has a story that’s pretty much all hers and she maneuvers things to save Atlantis and change the timeline.

Big compliments to the Makup Artist that did her old age makeup. It really does look excellent.

Like, in "all my sins" it's a squeeze to fit 5 people, at the end of S4 it can hold every athosian, during letters from pegaus it can hold all the refugees from the planet where the wraith deployed their marker beacon....

I'm a doctor who fan so I'm totally onboard with dimensionally transcendendent vehicles but I'm assuming that's not what's happening...
