The Elves of Midgard ("Red Sky")
SG-1 Event Horizon
Silvana 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...

An Ascended Being Maxed Out My Credit Cards! ("Ascension")
SG-1 Event Horizon
Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 3 "Ascension". In this episode an ascended being takes a shine to Sam and hitches a ride home so he can stalk her. If he stalks her long enough, will she love him? YES?! This Sam-centric episode has some great scenes: Teal'c in a cowboy hat, for example. However, even Amanda Tapping's great acting and Jack not into Star Wars can make up for all the scenes in which we are screaming. Silvana learns what she's supposed to say back to "live long and prosper". Tegan is shamed for not bringing a towel places. Silvana proposes having an onsite...

SG-1 Event Horizon
Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 2 "Threshold". Silvana questions if Bae'tac has a life insurance policy out on Teal'c after this episode. Tegan does not recommend candles around oxygen tanks. Just a PSA for our lovely listeners. How does no one at the SG-C know Lord of the Rings well enough to recognize the name Va'lar?

A Tease of An Episode ("Enemies")
SG-1 Event Horizon
Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 1 "Enemies". This is the second part of a three parter, that the ladies are not fans of.

"Must Preserve", That's What Love Means - Season 4 Tier Ranking
SG-1 Event Horizon
Silvana and Tegan discuss the tier ranking for Season 4 of "Stargate SG-1." There are some obvious episodes, like "Window of Opportunity" or "Point of No Return". Sorry, we were too late with our "Jane the Virgin" warning; you'll just have to find it somewhere else. Episodes with Jack/Sam romance immediately lose ranking. Silvana and Tegan take Sophia's opinions into consideration when deciding where to put "Entity". Surprisingly, "The First Ones" was a bigger hit than anticipated.

Justice for Hebron! (Exodus)
SG-1 Event Horizon
Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 22 "Exodus" and discuss how Stargate SG-1 is veering into a more pure sci-fi style, and Silvana is not a fan of it. Another thing the hosts are not a fan of - the Tok'ra. The Tok'ra train has derailed into an alternate dimension at this point. The Tok'ra know Tanith (using Hebron as a host) is a spy but the whole spy business it just handled in the most ridiculous and frankly awful way. The Tok'ra used the host Hebron in a very goa'uld way by just using him for their own ends. This is the episode where Samantha Carter blows up a sun, and...
