Dude this Stargate lets us travel across the galaxy...

Morden shows can't even create 6 episodes every few years with many times the budget

wants a 90s show to create 22 planets with unique aliens each episode every year for 10 years.

Which episode?

I know this is bait but I will gladly take this chance to discuss stargate. I miss that era of TV so much

that's just season 1 and 2 to some extent, later on they deal with various advanced alien factions all the time

Stargate threads are better when there's some months in between them.

I still can't believe His Divine Shadow showed up in Stargate.

she was a good friend.

>Dude this Stargate lets us travel across the galaxy. Imagine how many strange new worlds we can go explore!

literally all worlds are Canada

BAAAAH!

*sigh*
somehow, Apophis returned.

tfw

was it autism?

So I have a few questions
Why didn't the Wraith just clone humans to use as a food supply?
Why didn't the Asgard show up to help that one ancient bint frozen in ice after she got free?, or show any interest in her leftover genetic material to clone a superior body?
In fact, why didn't the Nox help the Asgard? Weren't the allies?
Why did the Atlantis expedition not just wait for like a few more months for the Daedalus to be ready before they set off? Going into an unknown environment with no reliable fallback seems like a really stupid thing to do, and it was never implied they were in any rush to leave Earth.
Why wasn't the Atlantis expedition equipped with Zats, which had at that point become standard issue in the SGC?

my main gripe is how long it took them to establish an off world base. you think they’d at least have a quarantine area after the first 3 space viruses.

In fact it should have been standard procedure for any and all teams and offworld visitors to go through the Alpha Site first and stay there for 24 hours.

Why didn't the Wraith just clone humans to use as a food supply?

Because they don't taste very good.

Why didn't the Asgard show up to help that one ancient bint frozen in ice after she got free?, or show any interest in her leftover genetic material to clone a superior body?

Because they didn't know about her until after she died, and they were too moral to experiment on humans/ancients. Hence why they died off and the Pegasus Asgard survived.

In fact, why didn't the Nox help the Asgard? Weren't the allies?

The Nox were the least technological of the 4 races, all they had was invisibility and flying cities. There was no helping a millennia long self inflicted genetic disease.

Why did the Atlantis expedition not just wait for like a few more months for the Daedalus to be ready before they set off? Going into an unknown environment with no reliable fallback seems like a really stupid thing to do, and it was never implied they were in any rush to leave Earth.

They thought once they got there they could just dial back because it is the city of the ancients after all, you know the people that made the ZPM's.

Why wasn't the Atlantis expedition equipped with Zats, which had at that point become standard issue in the SGC?

Because the writers really hated the Zats and regretted ever introducing them.

what I don't understand is why the gate is always in the middle of nowhere on the destination planet. The biggest piece of infrastructure on the planet and you're lucky to get a ruined plaza with a few columns.

Why didn't the Wraith just clone humans to use as a food supply?

They drain "life force" rather than blood, so probably something about clones not having the same kind of life force as natural-born humans. Remember this is a universe in which people are confirmed to have spiritual essence that can traverse realms beyond the material.

Why didn't the Asgard show up to help that one ancient bint frozen in ice after she got free?

It all happened pretty quickly. The Asgard didn't know and I don't think humans had the means to contact the Asgard at that time.

or show any interest in her leftover genetic material to clone a superior body?

Ancient Asgards were similar to the Ancients, but not the same. Probably wouldn't be viable to transfer an Asgard consciousness into a cloned Ancient body, especially given the problems they already had doing that with Asgard clones.

In fact, why didn't the Nox help the Asgard? Weren't the allies?

You're assuming a possible solution even exists. Maybe they already tried and couldn't come up with anything, either.

Why did the Atlantis expedition not just wait for like a few more months for the Daedalus to be ready before they set off?

I feel like this was just for meta TV show reasons, having the Atlantis Expedition cut off from Earth is more dramatic and allows the spin-off show to stand on its own more.

Why wasn't the Atlantis expedition equipped with Zats, which had at that point become standard issue in the SGC?

Because the people in charge knew Zats would be OP and decided to take the high road and fight fair in the Pegasus Galaxy. In all seriousness, more meta TV show considerations: The writers clearly regretted how strong they made the Zats and wanted everyone to forget about them, plus it again helps the spin-off form its own identity by not relying on so many carry-overs.

This one always bothered me. Most of the planets they visited were either currently occupied by the Gould or were at one point occupied by the Gould, and this advanced alien race that was always at war with each other never thought to build some sort of security structure around gates to their worlds?

Because they don't taste very good.

That's still really stupid though. MRE's don't taste good either but it's a good idea to have a few on hand anyway.

Because they didn't know about her until after she died, and they were too moral to experiment on humans/ancients. Hence why they died off and the Pegasus Asgard survived.

They were too moral to experiment on LIVING humans, (also kind of dumb if they had given their consent, which I'm sure more than a few would be willing to do) and the DNA from that dead ancient lady could've saved their entire race from extinction. Also they had the ability to resurrect people who had died recently so she'd be worth taking even just for that.

The Nox were the least technological of the 4 races, all they had was invisibility and flying cities. There was no helping a millennia long self inflicted genetic disease.

Arguable, but they could have at least provided some genetic material so the Asgard could continue living.

They thought once they got there they could just dial back because it is the city of the ancients after all, you know the people that made the ZPM's.

Going in with nothing but assumptions and no back-up sounds like a surefire way to get killed.

Because the writers really hated the Zats and regretted ever introducing them.

Yet they replaced them with Wraith Stunners which did the same thing but with a fancier particle effect.

middle of nowhere

It's usually a short walk from the colony.

Why is it not in the middle of the city or in the temple?

Lol, dunno. The goold need to get their daily steps in somehow.

They drain "life force" rather than blood, so probably something about clones not having the same kind of life force as natural-born humans. Remember this is a universe in which people are confirmed to have spiritual essence that can traverse realms beyond the material.

Right, but Beckett was a clone eventually. He had "life force" and a soul and all that.

It all happened pretty quickly. The Asgard didn't know and I don't think humans had the means to contact the Asgard at that time.

They couldn't have kept her on ice? She'd been frozen for like 10 million years, what's 2 or 3 more?

You're assuming a possible solution even exists. Maybe they already tried and couldn't come up with anything, either.

That's fair.

I feel like this was just for meta TV show reasons, having the Atlantis Expedition cut off from Earth is more dramatic and allows the spin-off show to stand on its own more.

Also fair.

Because the people in charge knew Zats would be OP and decided to take the high road and fight fair in the Pegasus Galaxy. In all seriousness, more meta TV show considerations: The writers clearly regretted how strong they made the Zats and wanted everyone to forget about them, plus it again helps the spin-off form its own identity by not relying on so many carry-overs.

Also fair. Stupid, but fair.

Honestly the entire Asgard thing doesn't really make any sense because they spent 10 seasons of Stargate sg1 explaining how nothing the Asgard could have done would have made a difference, even after they find live members of their own species that predate the genetic modifications, and then they piss away all that established lore with an offshoot Asgard species that appears in like 2 episodes where they just hand wave all that established lore and say "they died because they weren't willing to experiment on humans".

Yet they replaced them with Wraith Stunners which did the same thing but with a fancier particle effect.

Wraith Stunners can't kill people or vaporize objects like Zats, they're purely limited time stun guns.

Right, but Beckett was a clone eventually. He had "life force" and a soul and all that.

That's honestly a good point, hadn't thought about that.

They couldn't have kept her on ice? She'd been frozen for like 10 million years, what's 2 or 3 more?

Yeah, they acted pretty impulsively there.

Honestly killing the Asgard was just a really stupid decision in an already really stupid plot. God the Ori sucked.
It really depends on what Zats can and can't do. Shooting an Anubis Supersoldier with it does literally nothing. Even if you shoot like 10 times. Same for Replicators.

It really depends on what Zats can and can't do.

Only because the writers looked for every possible opportunity to nerf them.

dont know.
I wont watch anything that someone tells me is good out of principal. I've had more than a few people tell me to watch it so I will go to my grave never having seen it.

So you only saw S1 and parts of S2?

I was always under the impression that the Gould or however it's spelled were invading species for the most part that were not space faring races as it was the easiest way to conquer. You could instantly make an endless army of meat shields and potential new hosts to such a large network you basically could never be wiped out regardless the battles you picked.

Dunno I never wanted to think too hard about the show, I mean hell you had fucking space wizards who could have wiped out any enemy with a thought at some points. It was always best seen for me as Mcguyver goes on whacky space adventures.

Thought he might referring to one of the first episodes in the first or second season. A bunch of greeks in a villa partything their whole life till they died after like a month or two. Dont remember anything about it. Some type if experiment or something.

I came to this thread just to check if anyone posted it.

any time aliens are mentioned its just by name, never actually see any

The Asgard? The GOOLD?

giant ass space ship orbiting the earth

giant ass pyraminds floating in space

they fight and explode

absolutely no one notices this

In fact, why didn't the Nox help the Asgard? Weren't the allies?

i felt like the nox were sorta on par in terms of ascended beings in that whole live and let live vibe. they could bring their own back from death but wouldnt get involved in anyone else's stuff

The problem is they(the writers) introduced the "3 shots vaporizes the target" thing in the season finale of season 1, and regretted it from that point forward. They almost shunned away from using the Zats from that point forward because they didn't want to have to confront that stupid vaporize thing they added so early on. I wonder what those writer meetings looked like when someone said "Teal'c has a Zat why wouldn't he just vaporize the bodies so the guards don't find them?"

i felt like the nox were sorta on par in terms of ascended beings in that whole live and let live vibe. they could bring their own back from death but wouldnt get involved in anyone else's stuff

Right, but they revived SG1 after they were killed in the worst and dumbest ambush of all time. Also that one Jaffa bloke.

well we all have our favorites

It always bothered me that they just turned into stun guns they used with impunity when they were introduced as torture devices that bring unimaginable searing pain to every nerve in the target's body. The whole reason 2 shots kill is that the pain becomes so extreme you just die from it, but before long people were just Zatting each other without a care in the world and brushing it off. There could have been some serious moral ramifications to using Zats and that could have resulted in either SGC forbidding their use as the war crime it is, or working with alien allies to modify and weaken them into just being painless stun guns. That would have removed all the problematic functions and felt natural to do.

Bruh, it only takes them to world's that were set up by ayys with their slaves.
And they used humans to take over. So they needed a bunch of slave humans.

Hallowed are the Ori

How could you not revive this smile?
And then of course you have to revive everyone else to further protect that smile.

It's really a shame she turned into such a hateful, sour cunt in real life.

More like BORE-i, lmao gottem

or working with alien allies to modify and weaken them into just being painless stun guns

I mean they do meet the Tok'ra in season 2. That would have been the perfect avenue to introducing a modified Zat gun, as like a parting gift at the end of the episode.

DOES Wayne Brady have to jaffa kree a bitch?

I could never take him seriously as a Jaffa. All I see and hear when he's on-screen is Wayne Brady.

I sure am glad he got such a long-lasting role on SG-1 and wasn't written out after 3 appearances.

Shol’va

The Tok’ra are jerks though. The SGC should have gassed them first chance they had.

Early Stargate was kino as fuck

The SGC trusted those snakeheads way too much and it ALWAYS bit them in the ass.

speaking of jaffa cameos. chief from BSG was one too!

can’t discount Black Moses himself

Every single human settlement on other planets was due to the Gou’oold. They intentionally kept them low tech so they can farm the settlements for vessels and soldiers. The few advanced civilizations want to be as far away from the gates as possible because they know the Gou’oold come out of it.

Kino bush. Man I really thought this show would have constant nudity when I first started watching. Shame

Hey Carter, remember that time a rogue Asgard scientist created a teenage clone of me with all my memories, experiences, and knowledge still intact? And when got the whole thing straightened out, we turned him loose on a school campus with his sights aimed directly at a group of fourteen year old girls? Damn, I bet he's having fun right now, using his adult brain and hindsight to maneuver the horniest era his young body will ever know. And he was a good friend.

Kek I had that exact thought.

Pubes

ewww

You must be 18 to post here

The entire galaxy look like Canada, deal with it.

Get full frontal of Arab woman

Not so much as cleavage from the blonde soldier the snake rejects

I'm still disappointed about it.

hey you dumb kid who’s only been on the planet for a week

have a high maintenance dog

What did Jack mean by this?

Fucking kree you loretard. They are All humans that goolds kidnapped from earth and relocated them to different planets to server them there.

Who the fuck are wraiths? Fuck off with this, anything else than sg1 season 1-8 Can fuck off.

hows that work? was young o'niell on permanent government payroll for life? did they provide him food water and shelter? is he like a super soldier now?

sounds like star trek

he’s slick enough to get a gf, go over to her house, cuck the father and get him thrown out, and live with his new milf/13 yo puss combo.

fuck you i liked it

Except it makes far more sense in star gate as its part of the overall plot of the show

You didn't actually watch the show did you? I can tell you didn't watch the show.

That's a fair point but think about it this way..if there were all these high tech civs out on space they would be known to everyone and not secret space club shit

On season 8 of my rewatch now. God I love this show.

post based canadians

I love Stargrate threads

Unpopular opinion but Daniel was my favorite character. His contrarian attitude caused the best drama, and that's what I watch Anon Babble for.

100 days
it's an excellent episode

his """acting""" and fast talking got old. the final episode with them on the ship was pretty cringe for the character. and the cameo in sga was very falnderized. in other words, sg1 ending in season 8 would've solved that and a lot of other issues.

t. ori hater

I see you LEXXfag

LOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HEAD. More like Jonas Cringe LMAOOO.
based Daniel Chadson. He started porking a new hole on every planet.

insufferable

Insufferably hot.

Let us not forget Daniel "Superspy" Jackson from Stargate Universe.

He got fat and changed his name to Eli.

go to countless worlds across the far reaches of the galaxy

every world looks like the same exact canadian forest

except the desert planets which look like the same exact sand pit in Canada but shot from different angles

Hmm really interesting

I like that part in the episode where they find out the sarcophagi are bad for you where the lady is flirting with Daniel Jackson and she asks him if, in all his travels across the galaxy, he's ever seen something as beautiful as the trees on her planet.
And it's the same forest every single episode is shot

Hey, sometimes they went to the giant sulfur pile.

to be fair those trees were pretty nice looking

Goold?

For my wife's son?

More like

every single world is a Canadian forest

EVERYTHING BASED ON EGYPT

Men must be better, Daniel Jackson

Every single world is some sort of ancient/pre-history/medieval human settlement

because the last aliens that figured out the star gates used them to kidnap and export humans of various cultures for slave labor, and then surpressed their intellectual and cultural advancement under threat of death.

any time aliens are mentioned its just by name, never actually see any

fucking what?

look, im all for a stargate thread, but the entirety of this OP sounds like it was written by someone who hasnt seen more than a few episodes of the first season

there is an entire season where one of the primary goold enemies styles himself after the christian depiction of satan and makes his homeworld and architecture in the image of hell

The show got pulled from my streaming service while I was halfway through season 8 and now I don't know where to watch it. I can still watch Atlantis but I'm stuck on the episode where Teyla get's nightmare hallucinations and it's so boring to watch through.

Not to mention (Yu)’s Chinaplanet. Although we only ever get a glimpse of it. At that big Goold meating there’s some kind of Zulu Goolds too iirc.

TELFORD YOU SON OF A BITCH GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE

Teyla sucks and is one of the big reasons I won’t rewatch Atlantis. They should have replaced her like they did with that zesty Rainbow guy.

Yeah the meeting of the system lords is like 90% non Egyptian goulds.

Such a tease. We get full bush then never again.

set him up the entire season

gets one shot by cyborg apophis

What did they mean by this?

could have been producers. i remember studio executives fucked with the shows plotline several times

get good faggot
sg1
vaughn.live/atlantis4
atlantis
vaughn.live/atlantis3

humans are a slave race spread throughout the galaxy by brain worms

that episode where SG-1 has to beat the System Lord’s all star Goold team at hockey

i dont mind a bit of teyla. although i did just start the atlantis rewatch, maybe something will surface through my viewing of the sreies

two words: UG GO

I recall around S3 is when she gets more say on what the character's story arc should be like and that's when she starts being noticeably shit.

But Colonel Shepard, my people....

They thought once they got there they could just dial back

hmm

have remote controlled robots

can control robot when gate is open

scan entire facility

yeah we can totes dial back bro

okay program the robot to dial back when the gate shuts down

What?

I said write a program have the super smart robot dial earth

uhm that's not how TV works sir

lol
LMAO

i tell you who i find hard to swallow is the scottish doctor. been finding myself rolling my eyes when he spouts whatever he talking

The most ridiculous episode is when they tried to do a farewell episode Dr. Fraiser style lmao as if anyone gave a fuck about that dude as much people did Fraiser.

and then he was back 5 episodes later
