Kyle Idiot's Kobayashi Maru Wet Dream ("Proving Ground")
SG-1 Event Horizon

Just Watch the Mummy Instead (“The Tomb”)
SG-1 Event Horizon
Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 8, “The Tomb”. This is not a favorite and is heavily reliant on the drama of the Cold War. Silvana and Tegan come up with several ways this plot could have been more interesting. While dull, this episode does pass the Bechtdel Test. And Peter Deluise directed while no one was bedridden!

info_outlineSilvana and Tegan watch Season 5 Episode 5 "Red Sky", the inferior cousin to "Scorched Earth."
SG-1 accidentally messes up a planet's sun, threatening their planet and existence. The people on the planet just happen to believe that the Asgard are their gods and they aren't too ready to be told they worship false gods and need to evacuate the planet.
Why didn't Teal'c have something to say about a society worshipping false gods? Why is it always about Jack and Daniel?
The Asgard won't help, even though it's pretty unlikely the goa'uld are monitoring this 24/7. We meet the Asgard council for the first time and they aren't the biggest fans of Jack.
The science in this episode seemed especially made up, unfortunately even amazingly talented Amanda Tapping couldn't pull off making it seem legit. But of course, everything was fixed in the end...but was it the Tauri, or was it the Asgard? We may never know.
