Podcasts about stargate command

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: woosgrewatch@gmail.com

The day has finally arrived, lovely listeners, when we get to discuss this testament to postmodern television! Martin Lloyd is back and he has written a television show that is eerily reminiscent of the Stargate Program.  Silvana and Tegan are excited to be joined by their very special guests Eric and their military advisor, Rob.  Where was Katharyn Powers in this episode?  Join the discussion on our socials.  

We are thrilled to welcome "Dr. Carolyn Lam" actress Lexa Doig to Dial the Gate to explore her career, filling the shoes of Stargate Command's chief medical officer, and putting up with Dr. Daniel Jackson on a daily basis!

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 11 "Desperate Measures". The Jack and Maybourne bromance continues when Carter is kidnapped and Maybourne returns to help Jack and the SG-C rescue her before it is too late. We'll be back with our episode on Wormhole X-Treme with special guest Eric on January 13th! Happy Holidays everyone. Don't miss Tegan on her latest appearance on Treksperts Quiz!  Join the discussion on our socials.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 9 "Between Two Fires". This is the end of the Tollan storyline and the end of Narim and his cat.  Silvana explains Legends of the Hidden Temple to Tegan. The ladies discuss our duties as citizens of a nation and the better downfall of the Tollan via infiltration instead of invasion. Tegan still wants justice for Hebron, and we could have gotten it this time! The ladies also wonder whatever happened to Narim's feelings?  Join the discussion on our socials.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Stargate Atlantis, Dial the Gate is privileged to release David's interview with Torri Higginson from 2018. Originally filmed for Season Two of Dialing Home on Stargate Command, this interview encompasses much of the exact material he has since been covering with other guests. With a surprise or two along the way!

Silvana and Tegan are joined by Eric, who discusses An Ascended Being Maxed Out My Credit Cards and his thoughts on Orlin.  The three then discuss Season 5, Episode 7 "Beast of Burden". Chaka has been captured by offworld 'slavers' who use Unas for their menial labor. Daniel does his best to rescue Chaka without burning down this world, but will he succeed? Join the discussion on our socials. 

When Stargate SG-1 went into its ninth season it very nearly became Stargate Command. Executive Producer, Writer and Director Robert C Cooper is back to share that story and many others from the last two years of the show.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 6 "Rite of Passage". This episode brings back the character Cassandra but played by the actress from "Bane".  Check out our episode on "Singularity" ("The Distant Land of Toronto") and "Bane" ("Get Jeff Goldblum! We've Got A Bug Transformation Problem!").  This episode reminds both ladies of the first X-Men movie.  Someone is in a bed the whole episode, so of course Peter DeLuise directs. Join the discussion on our socials.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 4 "The Fifth Man". If only they had made this the fifth episode!! The SG-1 team has a fifth member, or does it? An alien has convinced them that he is an injured member of their team in need of help. Will we ever see this race again??? Absolutely not. What if Simmons was a Reol? Silvana and Tegan come up with a great story line for the Reol race.  Spoiler warning for season 1 of Rings of Power. Join the discussion on our socials. New episodes released weekly on Mondays. 

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 therapist at the SG-C for crewmembers and psychological analyses of aliens they encounter. What do you think? Join the discussion on our socials. Apologies for some of the background noise. There is a construction zone at Silvana's house that is thankfully over now! We'll now be back to our regularly scheduled episodes every Monday.  Fan letters were saved until the end since we dove right into this episode. We couldn't stop ourselves.  Thank you for your patience, lovely listeners!

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? As usual, the ladies ask the hard hitting questions.  Join the discussion or check out our season rankings on our Linktree. We will be returning October 14 with our next episode!

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.  Silvana and Tegan brainstorm some better storylines where the main drive of the plot isn't Teal'c being brainwashed. This episode gets the highest marks yet for technical quality.  Thanks to Prop Nquity for the email! Check out "Pod Meets World" if you're a "Boy Meets World" fan.  Join our discussion on the socials.     

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 6, Episode 12 of Star Trek Voyager, "Blink of An Eye". This has been quite a journey for Tegan, who has agonized over which episode to show Silvana to convince her that Star Trek can be good, actually. Did Silvana enjoy the episode? Listen and find out! Join the discussion on our socials.

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. Check out the tier ranking and other links on our Linktree.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 21 "Double Jeopardy" and answer the question what does this have to do with the game show "Jeopardy"? This episode is Michael Shanks's directorial debut and features the actor who plays Lurch in the Addams Family.  Harlan is back! He really does not understand what SG-1 does.  Check out our instagram and other links on our linktree.

Silvana and Tegan are joined by their good friend and fellow podcaster, Sophia from Where's Beverly, for Season 4, Episode 20, "Entity". This is Sophia's favorite episode! She "must preserve!" Silvana dares Tegan to write the next fan fiction. Sophia explains why this is the best episode of Stargate. Sophia and Tegan discuss the medical inaccuracies in this episode, despite their onsite medical advisor. What would Stargate have looked like had Samantha Carter's body died and brought her back in a different body or used the robot Carter? Where have we seen that before... Check out our instagram and other links on our linktree. Where's Beverly Instagram Previous episodes with Sophia: "It's Equality"   

TW: Suicide/self-harm Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 18, "The Light". Once again, there is a strong need for a therapist on base, but there is not one! There's not even a trigger warning for this episode... SG-1 is challenged by a planet that has a narcotic effect on anyone that visits it. They meet a teenager named Loren and rescue him from this planet - to never be seen again. Silvana asks the most important question of this episode: Where are they defecating? is Teal'c an honorary Jehovah's Witness? Was there a Little Finger gao'uld equivalent? Check out our website, socials, and tier rankings on our Linktree.

You can count on one hand the number of NID agents trusted by Stargate Command. The gem of the bunch, Agent Malcolm Barrett, was played by Peter Flemming. He joins us to share stories from the show and his career!

Silvana and Tegan are joined by guest star, Eric, for Season 4, Episode 17 "Absolute Power". In this episode, the Harsesis Child arrives at the SG-C to make Daniel fall asleep and dream of an alternative reality. The three discuss the child actor chosen for the Harcesis Child. Tegan finds it weird that this is back to back with "2010", since neither results in much change in the overall storyline. Will absolute power corrupt Daniel Jackson? Absolutely. Is breakfast a conspiracy? Join the discussion on our socials.

Tegan and Silvana watch Season 4, Episode 16 "2010". This episode is one of Silvana's favorite episodes and takes place ten years in the future. The Stargate program has been revealed to the world when a highly advanced people called the Aschen offer to share their technology with Earth. Could they be why the Earth birth rate is dropping? Yes, of course it is.  This episode has some excellent easter eggs, especially when the team visits the SG-C as a museum site.  Tegan didn't enjoy this episode as much as Silvana, but what did you think? Is this one of the best episodes of Stargate SG-1?

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 15 "Chain Reaction," and are joined by guest star, Eric! This is a Maybourne and Jack episode and splits Jack from the rest of SG-1.  The three discuss how Stargate is unique in how contemporary espionage plays into the storyline. Also isn't Kinsey the worst? Maybourne's apartment leaves much to be desired. It makes a Gao'uld froyo shop look like a great option for daily living. Is Teal'c an honorary Millennial?  Join the discussion; check out our Linktree. 

Tegan and Silvana watch Season 4, Episode 13, "The Curse". We move on to the next Daniel Jackson partner who becomes a goa'uld host.  We find out a little about Daniel Jackson's past before the film when he returns to his alma mater after the death of his closest professor.  Evidence is mounting that Sam Carter is queer!  We answer the question: Can Teal'c read English?

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 12 "Tangent". The ladies speculate that this episode was a part of why Stargate got funding from the US Military as propaganda.  This episode has Steven Williams, star of "21 Jump Street" as well, which makes Silvana excited. The rest of this episode is essentially Apollo 13 with Jack and Teal'c stuck in space and Stargate Command becomes Houston.  Check us out on our LinkTree. For more about the history of the Apollo program, check out The Rest Is History episode, "Moonwalkers". 

Silvana and Tegan are joined by Eric for Season 4, Episode 11 "Point of No Return". All three are very excited that we have reached this epsidoe and the first episode with Martin Lloyd and Murray.  This is one of the few episodes that takes place entirely on Earth.  Teal'c has learned a lot about being an earthling; enough to go undercover as a short order cook! Teal'c also tries on his alternate persona: Murray.  How would the NID get someone's eye perscription? How long have these aliens been on Earth? Are "Sex in the City" and "Stargate SG-1" the same universe? RIP Willie Garson who  Where's Beverly - Anatomy of An Episode for Season 4, Episode 10.  Check out our Linktree to check out our website and tier ranking.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 9 "Scorched Earth". The ladies love this episode and suggest it as a great one to start people on Stargate.  The SG-1 team are helping a group of people settle a new planet, but another civilization has already started terraforming it! How will the team solve this one? Answer: with the Daniel Jackson we've all been waiting for! With a little conversation, Daniel is able to solve everyone's problems. How is this advanced civilization not one of the original four races? This is rather like Horizon Zero Dawn, from the perspective of the Gadmere.  Maybe it is just because Silvana is an Agile Coach, but this episode provides a great example of agile culture vs command/control structure.  Join the discussion!

Silvana and Tegan watch season 4, episode 8 "The First Ones". Daniel Jackson is kidnapped by an Unas as a sacrifice, and the SG-1 team has to track them to rescue him. Silvana and Tegan speculate about how the Jaffa could use this world to their advantage. What exactly is Chaka?  Join the discussion on Discord or Instagram by visiting our Linktree.

Silvana and Tegan are joined by their friend Eric for Season 4, Episode 6 "Window of Opportunity". This is a fan and podcast favorite!  Have you ever wondered what Teal'c was doing while Jack was getting up to shenanigans? Find out what everyone's favorite parts were and just how much Tegan and Silvana hate the Jack/Sam moment.  Eric has some theories about time loops. Silvana makes an observation about Stargate SG-1 and the West Wing. Join the discussion by joining one of our socials.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 5 "Divide and Conquer", and lament that they must watch yet another Anise/Freya episode. Thank goodness this is her last episode on the show; this poor actress was given such a bad character. Silvana and Tegan elaborate on how make-up is a no-win situation. Silvana really likes how this episode starts and ends, it's all the bits in between that the ladies do not like. There is a massive plot hole in this episode that involves pockets. They try to ship ALL the wrong people. They have updated their music library in Season 4! No more child's theme for lady friends! Yes, all wrong, Sophia.  Martouf dying at the end is the worst part! And how limited Fraiser is by Anise/Freya each time the Tok'ra come to the base.  Referenced Boob Armor Video Check us out on our Linktree.

In this episode of Essential Stargate, we discuss the STARGATE SG-1 episode "Enigma," from season one.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 1 "Small Victories". Stargate Command is visited by Thor asking for help in defeating the number one enemy of the Asgaard, the Replicators.  Jack, Teal'c and Daniel are focused on defeating the Replicators that are on Earth from the previous episode while Sam goes off with Thor to save the Asgaard home world, since he needed someone dumber than him. What does this episode have to do with the Blair Witch Project?  Why is Major Davis waiting for Daniel to give him orders? Why do men so rarely get redemption arcs? Silvana explains the origin of the term "cliffhanger".  Join the discussion on our Linktree.

Tegan and Silvana watch Season 3, Episode 22 "Nemesis".  Silvana and Tegan have a lot to nitpick in the first two minutes of this episode because of the flirting between Sam and Jack. We're not here for these shenanigans.  This episode introduces a new enemy: the replicators!  Silvana gets real "media philosophy" for part of this episode. Both wonder why the Stargate writers aren't exploring the individual motivations of team members versus the team itself. Teal'c has so much potential in this episode that is unexplored!  Join the discussion by checking us out on our social media.  Check out the Lolita Podcast.

Tegan and Silvana watch Season 3, Episode 21, "Crystal Skull". This episode is Daniel-heavy and features Daniel's grandfather, Nick. Nick is not a fan of Daniel's theory about the pyramids, and Daniel doesn't really believe that Nick saw giants after looking into the eyes of a crystal skull he found on earth. Silvana is concerned the CGI in this episode is bad enough that children will judge us if we show it to them now. Like we did our fathers for old Doctor Who and aliens dressed in bubble wrap.  It appears archaeology runs deep in Daniel's family. Is archaeology only possible if you have a family legacy of it? It's Indiana Jones, Nathan Drake, and Lara Croft too! What's that about? How is Daniel so bad at presenting with slide decks? Silvana and Tegan discuss the issue of the "magical black person" who is typically a person who helps a white main character achieve their goals. These characters are often not human themselves too.  The ladies wonder what has happened to Nyan, and also worry about Grandpa Nick staying with gas giants. Will they know what to feed him? It's not Unsolved Mysteries, but here is an Ancient Aliens episode about the crystal skulls. Join the discussion on our linktree.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 19 "New Ground". The Bedrosians and Optricans are at war over their origin story, and SG-1 ends up in the middle of it.  Like in the "Bane" episode, Teal'c's make-up is a little off, and this is an episode that provides an example of how the lack of diversity in the TV and make-up industry can impact the quality of the end product. A lot of the technical details are not great, and parts of this Stargate SG-1 episode drag.  Also like in "Bane", Teal'c is seriously injured. In this episode he is blind and spends a great deal of time in a cave.  The new characters on this planet are having their religion questioned by the very existence of SG-1 and the Stargate. Where are the tortured souls who are discovering their religion is based on a lie?! You should really explain how Zats work when you give them to people! I don't need to know all the details about these goddamn eye treatments but give me one blessed line saying "the second shot kills!" A character is introduced to the SG-C but Tegan and Silvana don't recall seeing him again. Where in the world is Nyan?  Why didn't Tegan and Silvana enjoy The Crown or House of Dragon?

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 18, "Shades of Grey". In this episode, Jack goes undercover to root out the corruption in the NID who have been stealing technology across the galaxy. Daniel speaks up for Sam when she can't advocate for herself and we love it! What do we wish Teal'c had done this episode? How could this episode have been more meaningful in the context of the show? Where does the Jack/Maybourne fan fiction begin? There is a Seinfeld reference in this episode! How random.  Join the conversation.  

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 17, "A Hundred Days". In this episode Jack gets trapped off world with a lady he likes while the SG-C and Sam try to find their way back to him. Silvana finds this episode mostly romantic, surprising both her and Tegan! They both liked a lot about this episode and agree that there are men's consent issues, once again. What is this about, Stargate? Silvana and Tegan take a detour discussing how Mr. Omoroca identifies.  The most damning evidence yet for the Sam/Janet relationship reveals itself! We challenge Sophia of "Where's Beverly" to not love the plot line we devise.

Intergalactic is back. Mike and Clyde continue the Essential Stargate series with a review of STARGATE SG-1's second episode, "The Enemy Within." We discuss Teal'c's fate, Kowalski's role as a sacrificial lamb, and the moral dilemmas faced by Stargate Command.

Silvana and Tegan watch season 3, episode 16, "Urgo". This is one of their favorite episodes. Dom Deluise guest stars! Stargate SG-1 gets 'tagged' by a more advanced civilization. However a glitch in the AI technology means that SG-1 becomes aware of the tech and annoyed by the childlike personality of Urgo.  A solid episode of Stargate SG-1 and one of the first 7's we give in our ratings! Tegan shares some fun facts about the making of this episode. Who couldn't keep a straight face with Dom Deluise around? Join the discussion by checking us out at our Linktree. 

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 15, "Pretense".  Alexis Cruz guest starring! Who cares about the rest? Silvana and Tegan discuss another Katharyn Powers episode that they both enjoy! When Skaara/Klorel crash land on the Tollan planet and asks for help, they reach out to Stargate Command to bring SG-1 into the defense of Skaara. They are invited to the triad where a philosophical debate ensues and the stakes are Skaara's body and life.  Overall a solid Stargate episode that the ladies enjoyed!

Silvana and Tegan are joined by Sophia from "Where's Beverly" to discuss the ideal Sam Carter relationship.  Sophia argues for the Sam/Jack ship while Silvana and Tegan double down on their Sam/Janet ship.  All are in agreement that a Sam/Daniel ship is not good and that there is a plethora of lesbian subtext.  Sophia gives a good argument, but you decide!

Silvana and Tegan discuss why they are no longer watching Marvel movies. They don't watch DC movies either, but they never really started watching them in the first place. We are sick of the bait and switch tactics with trailers and the poorly thought through character arcs between media. We demand better from our media! How does this relate to the writers' strike?   Movies discussed in this converstaion include: 1) Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 2) Flash 3) Wandavision and Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness 4) Barbie (how did she sneak in there?) 5) Saving Private Ryan (heroes of a different nature) 6) House of the Dragon (also unsubscribed)   Join the discussion by visiting one of our links.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 13, "The Devil You Know". How is Teal'c not there for the reveal that Apophis is still alive? Silvana and Tegan are confused at the Tok'ra's seeming lack of self-preservation and why there is so much torture in this episode.  Sam's flat character arc is even more clear in this episode. We love Dr. Samantha Carter, but where are her flaws? What does growth for Sam look like and what are the challenges she must have as a woman in the Air Force in the 90s? The ladies discuss the trope of the bumbling husband. They also wonder at Apophis's poor interrogation techniques. Tegan comments on how much fan fiction is likely associated with this episode.  Why don't Tok'ra have harsesis children to have hosts and more allies? Tegan schools us in compulsory heterosexuality! Here's what YouTube started suggesting to Silvana. We suggest not watching this two-parter for new Stargate fans. What do you think? Tell us on one of our socials.  

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 12, "Jolinar's Memories" and discuss the SG-1's team going to Hell to rescue Jacob Carter.  Trigger warning for SA.  Tegan and Silvana are both excited Martuf is in this episode. That's about where the excitement ends. There's an underlying theme/tension of sexual assault that is handled extremely poorly.  Peter DeLuise gets to director an episode where someone is not in a bed; congrats, Pete! Peter Williams (Apophis) returns as the Phantom of the Stargate Universe! But Teal'c isn't there? Why did you bring Daniel? What the Hell!  Silvana and Tegan easily rewrite this episode because it is currently a mix of boring and disturbing. Join the discussion from our linktree. Special guest star appearance from Chicken the cat. 

Tegan and Silvana are joined by their friend Jade for a very special bonus episode. Are there no nurses in Stargate?  What's the difference between a nurse and nurse practitioner? Jade will tell us! Check out "Witches, Midwives, and Nurses" for more information about the Catholic Church, witchcraft, and the early years of medical licensing. Jade and Tegan share some of their experiences and impressions about sexism in the medical profession. Why is the Broca Divide one of the worst episodes for medical professionals?  What should Janet Fraiser be doing if the Stargate program was real?  

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 11, "Past and Present". Linea is back!    Tegan educates Silvana about green eyed villainy. Orner has the audacity to question Teal'c's name?  Linea is MASSIVELY lucky to end up here.  Tegan teaches us all about consent 101.  Daniel has a love interest... already!

Silvana and Tegan discuss a concept coined by Pop Culture Detective called "Born Sexy Yesterday". This is a relationship trope that is typically an incredible, exotic woman who is intellectually younger than a more, average human man.  Silvana and Tegan discuss the trope, its variations, and some inversions. Some of the media discussed in this episode, besides Stargate of course, are:  Twilight 50 Shades of Grey Fifth Element Tron Edward Scissorhands Big No Hard Feelings Rocky Horror Picture Show Star Man Star Trek   Additional Sources: Witches, Midwives, Nurses - a book on the history of witchcraft, medicine, and midwifery.
