Window of Opportunity - A Stargate Rewatch Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

It’s interesting that Atlantis’ first post-pilot episode, Hide and Seek, has a very similar plot to the SG1 episode that aired the same night. A strange alien entity is haunting the base and eating all their power. Rodney also partakes in an experimental medical trial that will hopefully give him the ability to use Ancient technology.

Apparently, Atlantis needs the memo to stop touching things! If Atlantis was a musical, what would that sound like? This is a good start to the season episode. We’re getting some character growth, learning about the city. We like it.

We end with a discussion about whether or not Teal’c gets paid and how he operates in the world now that he has his own apartment. How did he get ID? Does he have a 401k? Does he pay taxes? Tell us all your thoughts!

It’s time to get to the business of the new status quo at the SGC but something or someone is throwing a wrench in the works as the base goes into Lockdown. 

Where are the special episodes detailing Murray's Adventures in Colorado Springs? We were robbed!

We’re still not sure we really understand the separating the SGC into different zones plan and how that would make Anubis use his powers to reveal himself to the other ascended beings. Are they just trying to piss him off?

It turns out a lot of people prefer Gateship over Puddle Jumper! Go check out the SGA Season 1 channel on the discord and vote!

Also, everyone go watch season 1 of Anne’s Rice’s Interview with the Vampire which is now on Netflix. It’s amazing. Kerri’s obsessed.

Daniel once more tries to bond with a young woman in an attempt to save her life this week in Resurrection. Unfortunately, it was all for nothing. This one of those strange episodes that isn’t necessarily bad per se. There are definitely things that occurred but nothing really happened and we can’t help wondering what the point of it all was.

Can we bring back worshipping of Sekhmet? She sounds awesome. All the interactions between Teal’c and Dr. Lee were just the best, though.

In Nemesis, it’s Thor and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day as we finally meet the enemy that has been such a scourge to the Asgard - the Replicators! Why exactly is Thor dying? What happened to him? Is it also appendicitis? Are the little wings on the Replicators used for communication or something else? Teal’c also has one of his greatest lines when he declares, “One small step for Jaffa.”

Shid. 

It’s time to meet Daniel’s grandfather in Crystal Skull! No, not the Indiana Jones movie. And just like every sci-fi show where someone is “invisible,” what exactly are the rules of that? Did you know there are flavors of leptons? There are so many excellent quips and one-liners this week. The way Nick plays being able to hear and see Daniel but not believing Daniel is actually there is just fantastic. Why are SG1 skeptical about the giant aliens existing when they deal with aliens on a daily basis? 

And stay tuned to the end for an outtake! 

With us to discuss Maternal Instinct is our very good friend Karen! We finally get SG1 asking for back-up!! We also create a new spin-off: Law & Order: Chulak. Someone make the t-shirt! And with three Vancouver Actor’s BINGO squares being marked off this week, does anyone have BINGO yet? Sadly, we’re still no closer to figuring out what “Because it is so clear, it takes a longer time to realize it, if you immediately know the candlelight is fire, then the meal was cooked a long time ago” means. 

The events of New Ground probably should have happened before and it’s interesting that it hasn’t happened more. If Nefertum had been on the show, who should be cast to play him? Nyan is really such a good guy and it’s a shame we never saw him again. 

What was the full speech that Daniel never got to give to the Tollan High Council as Jack just had to go and mess things up in Shades of Grey. We also shamelessly steal from the Cobra Guys and do a little Stargate Theater! Who was a better Jack or Daniel? Vote now! Why does Michael insist on flirting with everyone? It’s very distracting. We finally know how the Goa’uld communication ball devices work! Or do we? Rachael is now the official ball (Ba’al?) monitor. Maybourne really should be more suspicious of Jack’s actions. It’s just unfortunate that Makepeace picked the wrong guy to start a side hustle with. But, what exactly was the point of the sting operation?

After a brief recap of Creation’s Salute to Stargate convention this past weekend, we get into discussing Jack’s A Hundred Days on Edora. It has been decided that Shane Meier is now part of Vancouver Actors BINGO, so update your cards! Why didn’t Garan tell his mother about the caves? Should this episode have been a two-parter? And more thinking too hard about how the gate works from a technical perspective. As much as we like Laira, it’s kind of odd that she asks Jack to give her a child. Not to be with her or have a relationship, she just wants a child. What exactly is the difference between a game and a sport? 

RIP Dom DeLuise. No one could have played Urgo as well as you. We still have many, many questions about pre-mission research of planets before sending people there. Do you like pie? Cos Jack LOVES it. Death or Urgo. Urgo or death. Cake or death? What if Urgo is alive? Also! Kerri will be at the Creation Stargate Con in Chicago this weekend! Come find her and say hi!
