Window of Opportunity - A Stargate Rewatch Podcast

The team, not SG1, is off an a galaxy-wide treasure hunt this week to try and break The Ties That Bind.     While we can admit that Vala is a bit much and some of the writing is doing her a disservice, we do still love her and Daniel’s chemistry.   We also get the official introduction of the Lucian Alliance and all these bad guys coming out of the woodwork now that the goa’uld are gone is really interesting.   The commentary gives us some insight into where exactly the bathrooms are on a cargo ship.   INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch THREADS: SG_Rewatch ...

Jason Momoa has entered the chat! Yes, the episode we’ve all been waiting for - the arrival of Ronon Dex.    But why is no one else concerned with UV exposure like Rodney is? It’s really important! There’s some interesting tension now between John and Caldwell over who is actually in charge when Caldwell is on Atlantis.   Generally, this is a really interesting episode for Rodney. He’s doing all the Rodney things but then he actually shoots Ford and it’s all kinds of amazing.   And now that we’re into the actual start of this second season of Atlantis,...

Window of Opportunity - A Stargate Rewatch Podcast

We finally meet the new big bad for Stargate in Origin. But just how evil are the Ori? Is it the religion or the men we need to be concerned with? What exactly is their relationship to the Ancients we already know?   TPTB have gotten some amazing guest stars already with Louis Gossett, Jr. as Gerak! He will be an interesting character to get to know over the season.   Was it really such a good idea for Mitchell to just bring that Prior back through the gate to the SGC? They know nothing about him or what he wants. Maybe not the best decision.   There is some confusion over...

Will the team make it out alive or be squished like bugs? Let’s find out as we continue our season 9 rewatch with Avalon, Part 2.   We love the call back to the communication stones from Citizen Joe. Whatever you do, do not play a drinking game with these episodes where you drink whenever someone says “Hallowed are the Ori” because you will die.   It was strange how Fannis didn’t give Vala any kind of heads up about what was expected of her at tea with the Administrator’s wife. Or just say she was sick and wasn’t going to make it. And this all leads to one of the...

There are massive changes afoot at Stargate Command as Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell tries to get the team back together in the season 9 premiere, Avalon Part 1.   What does goa’uld money look like? Do they have what we would consider money? Crypto, maybe?   We love the dynamic between Daniel and Vala so much. It’s so fun and different from anything else on the show. They’re amazing.   INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch THREADS: SG_Rewatch DISCORD: https://discord.gg/65kMPzBuaN MERCH: https://showclub.redbubble.com/ EMAIL: [email protected]

We’re continuing with Stargate Atlantis as we delve into The Intruder. Given the plot, of course, we have to know what a wraith hacker is like. And who would be the better hacker - the goa’uld or the wraith?   We’re really liking Caldwell. He might be in charge, but he still takes advice from people who have more information about certain situations.   We are confused by Weir and Simon’s relationship. What exactly are they to each other? It just seems so odd that he would consider a year such a long time that he ended up meeting someone else.   It is kind of...

We have called an audible and are starting with the conclusion to the intense final episodes of Atlantis season 1 with Season 2, episode 1, The Siege: Part 3.   There is so much that happens, but even so, it is very well paced. It starts off with a bang and just keeps going. We do love the small moments of comedy they were able to fit in amongst all the insanity, too.   And poor Rodney. Can he please just sit down for five seconds?   INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch THREADS: SG_Rewatch DISCORD: https://discord.gg/65kMPzBuaN MERCH: https://showclub.redbubble.com/ EMAIL:...

Before we move on to SG1 season 9 and Atlantis season 2, we’re taking a little break and watching David Hewlett’s directorial debut - A Dog’s Breakfast! It’s a delightfully eccentric horror-comedy in the vein of classic British movies of yore - Pink Panther, Arsenic and Old Lace, A Fish Called Wanda.   There’s also a crap ton of Stargate people in it. Including Christopher Judge as a guy who can’t get a date! What?? Tune in to find out what we thought.    Also, SPOILERS!! There is a twist at the end of the movie that we discuss in detail.   INSTAGRAM:...

Time to wrap things up as we discuss Stargate Atlantis season 1. The highs. The lows. The best and not so best.   Some of the choices for our Top 5 episodes might surprise you. And you might want to make sure you’re not drinking anything during Rachael’s game. You will spit it out and make a mess.   And there are further discussions about toilets on puddle jumpers. There have to be but it’s gotta be super awkward.   INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch THREADS: SG_Rewatch DISCORD: https://discord.gg/65kMPzBuaN MERCH: https://showclub.redbubble.com/ EMAIL:...
