Window of Opportunity - A Stargate Rewatch Podcast

Will the wraith make it to Earth? Will Rodney and Ronon become wraith food? Is John alive? Find out as we move into season 3 with No Man's Land. Aren't the IOA just lovely? They're totally supportive of every decision that has ever been made. /sarcasm Did you realize Weir was stuck at the SGC after she walked through the gate? Because, at this point, the wormhole can only go one way between the galaxies. It's interesting how the solution to this problem is to go back to the original Plan A - transform an entire hive ship of wraith into humans with the gas Beckett created. It all comes full circle. And we have a fun little diversion into the white/gold or blue/black dress from several years ago. Because why not?

We've made it to SG1 season 10 and it's time to see what the Ori's plans are with Flesh and Blood. Now, in general we don't remember a lot about season 10 so this is going to be a fun "rewatch" for us. Did everyone make it out alive after the explosive season 9 finale? Where are the ori going? What's with Vala's daughter? Seeing the flashbacks of how everyone survived was really great but also not so much because everyone else is dead. One of the coolest things, though, is Sam's rescue by Mitchell and Kvasir as they scoop her up with the Odyssey docking bay. So awesome! We do like this as a season premiere and a sort of reset of the status quo back to how things were with the goa'uld. And now we actually have a singular Bad Guy to focus on now.

This week, we do something a little different before we jump into Stargate SG1 season 10. We venture back in time to watch the 2003 Michael Shanks classic, Sumuru. It's 900 years in the future, women rule the world, and men are used for slave labor, procreation, and sacrifices to the giant snake god. This movie is not as bad as it could have been. The general premise is quite interesting but it kind of falls apart in the details. There are some decent moments, but, as Rachael explains, it feels like someone's college thesis project. The CGI is terrible. What's with the giant snake? That's not necessary. The acting is pretty decent, though. For what they had to work with… Given all that, is it worth watching?

It's time to finish our discussion of Stargate Atlantis Season 2 with our annual wrap-up episode! What were the best episodes? Who was the best villain? What quotes do we remember? And WTF happened?? Also, what would happen if a wraith fed on a person who had a goa'uld parasite in them? Would it be like eating a double meal?

It's our SG1 Season 9 wrap-up! We get into all the nitty-gritty and why doing this episode for this season was a bit harder than previous seasons. We also talk about the changes the show went through this season and how we feel about Mitchell as the new commander of SG1. What did you all think of season 9 and what are your favorites for this season? Write in and let us know! Also, what do you call an evil Roomba? And don't forget to check out the polls on Discord so you can tell us who is right and who is wrong.

The Lanteans team up with the wraith in Allies to put Beckett's retrovirus to the test. Of course, things proceed exactly as expected. The beginning of this episode introduces a concept we hadn't though of before: does Atlantis drift around the ocean at all or is it big enough that it's mostly stationary? Can they use the star drive to move it around like a ship? The wraith's plan is truly fascinating. Is it a good idea? Should they be doing this? It does seem like there are parts of this that weren't really thought through. And in the end it was all a ruse because the wraith just wanted to find Earth! Will they get there? Will they eat everyone on Earth? INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch THREADS: SG_Rewatch DISCORD: https://discord.gg/65kMPzBuaN MERCH: https://showclub.redbubble.com/ EMAIL: [email protected]

It's our FIVE YEAR anniversary, and we've reached the finale of SG1 Season 9 with Camelot. Luckily, they did get renewed for season 10; otherwise, that would have been one hell of a cliffhanger. This is a fun episode with some really great guest stars. Of course, the kids know where the forbidden place is because kids always know where that stuff is. We did enjoy the running gag of the team getting beamed away every time they tried to convince the locals that magic doesn't exist. They really needed to do it one more time, though. Three is the magic comedy number. The final space battle is really impressive. And seeing Sam just floating in space as she watches the destruction is very evocative.

We're very glad Inferno did not end on a cliffhanger of who was going to live and who was going to die. While this episode is a complete story, the set-up it gives us for next week is very interesting. Why would you turn off alarms on very advanced technology if you had no idea what they were for? Alarms don't just go off for no reason. Usually… Also, it would have been really interesting if the Daedalus had discovered that there was, in fact, a whole other civilization on the other side of the planet that they couldn't save. Rachael and Kerri don't agree on the motivations behind Lycus continuing to insist that the Atlanteans are only using him and doing all of this to get their hands on his ship. What do you think? LAST CALL! Our season wrap-up episode is coming soon, so send in your suggestions for a Rodney technobabble monologue for us to recite from memory! Drop it in an email or on Discord.

We finally find out what happened to Vala as we catch up with her in Crusade. This episode is really well done. Getting to see the other side of the story before the war starts is really interesting. Add in the threat of Russia taking back the Stargate and you have one fully stuffed episode calzone. We really like the relationship between Vala and Tomin and how she does genuinely seem to care for him. It's just really sad when you see how he changes due to the teachings of the Ori.
