The 1994 science fiction movie Stargate is Dave's selection for this week.  The film, which put director Roland Emmerich firmly on the Hollywood map, was marketed as an ambitious blend of ancient mythology and future spectacle long before it gave rise to a massive TV franchise. With Carolco Pictures supporting Emmerich and director Dean Devlin following their success with Universal Soldier, Stargate's production was ambitious for its time.  In 1994, the film's visual effects were state-of-the-art, bringing its world to life with a blend of realistic effects, intricate set design, and early computer-generated imagery.  Stargate was a huge movie office success, earning over $190 million worldwide and opening the door for Emmerich's subsequent triumphs like Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow, despite the fact that critics had differing opinions on how it was executed.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryAncient secrets… buried for thousands of years.A mysterious artifact… that defies explanation.And one discovery… that will open the door to another world.From director Roland Emmerich and producer Dean Devlin comes the sci-fi adventure that launched a universe.

We do give you the ultimate tribute to the battles, characters, running gags & favorite characters in the STARGATE SG-1 saga.   TALKING POINTS: *Discussing how non-space opera fans adore these shows *Joking about the infamous episodes & awesome Canadian scenery *And amusing convention stories & movies the actors have been in together!     GUESTS INCLUDE: Rose Mishaan & Samantha Schwartz (Probing the Wormhole Podcast) Gil Palmer Tim Smith (TSmittyTreks Fan Art on Insta) Matthew Litwin Todd Simpson (Galaxy Quest Superfan FB Group)     CLIPS USED: Michael Shanks discussing why the Zatniktel is a stupid weapon at a fan convention The two "L"s running gag on Stargate SG-1    

I provide a brief overview on the two-season Netflix escapade ANOTHER LIFE.   Why did this often feel like one rad yet intense mash-up of DEAD CALM meets ALIENS meets ARRIVAL?   Why did the science, cast, music & atmosphere complement one unpredictable premise?   Why was it (wrongfully) bashed by some viewer?   Is Katee Sackhoff still the undisputed Queen of the SciFi genre?     Inspect those space crystals and take a tour on the wild side of the galaxy!               MUSIC USED:    “Deep Space” by AudioNautix.

We start another week of Space Opera themed reviews for this week: First on the docket is the three-hour NOBILITY show. Despite it having a who's who of genre actors, does it mockumentary comedy blend well with whatever the hell bizarre tone it's trying to capture?   Then, I sum up the infamous SPACE COMMAND web series. Despite again having some passion from the veteran writers and starpower does it also leave mixed results?   Fire up the fuel tanks & let's blast off!       MUSIC USED: “Deep Space” by AudioNautix.

A new era of Stargate has begun. MK and Courtney are counting down to the exciting things that are happening this summer, and we also throw in some spoilers for other shows in here, because it's what we do.

Send us a textThe Air Force is bleeding instructors, CENTCOM's next boss is a mystery wrapped in vagueness, and the B-2 is getting a glow-up because, well, the B-21 still isn't ready. In this Daily Drop, Jared dives into the military's latest budget frenzy, Iran's Cold War cosplay, and why creatine is now part of his mental warfare toolkit. From wildfires pulling Guard troops off security gigs to Cyber Command begging for updated dial-up, it's another day of chaos, caffeine, and congressional cash grabs. Oh—and Space Force is building GPS knockoffs just in case things get really spicy. Buckle up, nerds.

Welcome to the DNA awards Fam!! We tried to split Stargate up into reasonable chunks, and yet, this was still somehow the most overwhelming thing we've ever had to do.

We wrap up the season that ends the pre-crossover era, AKA the George Hammond Era. Join us as we discuss the things we've seen and the things to come. Courtney has some pretty spot on predictions, and some that are so far off, iykyk.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend DNA fam. Courtney and MK review a weird one off episode of Stargate and of course try to survive just being alive.

This is a really tough one to talk about friends. One of the best episodes of the entire show, but it will rip your soul to pieces.

Happy Mother's Day friends! Enjoy the holiday with a fun little romp of an episode of Stargate (iykyk).

This is the beginning of the rapid run to the end of Season 7 of Stargate. We deal with a lot of real life conversations about handling problems, and who the actual good guys are in this world of gray.

MK and Courtney had a little bit of an adventure recording this one, but luckily we worked it all out! And we got the treat that is Stalker Pete, and the beginning of the end of what is a wild, wild season.

Happy Easter all! Jonas Quinn is back, and Courtney has let the bad press get to her. At least there's some of the sassiest Jack yet to get us through.

Hallucinations, Pretty Little Liars, and a very aggressive and personal attack on our emotional well being. Must be a casual episode of Stargate SG-1.

Why would anyone want to live forever? Why do we trust Daniel to do anything without military backup? Why is Enrico Colantoni the greatest man in the world? And why can't MK and Courtney have a week that isn't completely unhinged?

Happy April Fool's Day! MK wanted to celebrate the holiday by getting this episode out really late. That and she was distracted by snacks and tequila.

Apologies for the gap in episodes Fam!! 2025 is a year of change and figuring things out for MK and Courtney. Don't worry though, the episode was DEFINITELY worth the wait.

When you set your expectations on the floor, it's hard to be disappointing. We're definitely in a rougher patch of Stargate episodes, but MK and Courtney find ways to make it entertaining!

Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version. https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateInfo on the next LIVE SCREAM event. https://weirddarkness.com/LiveScreamIN THIS EPISODE: We've all been exposed to the concept of the grey aliens – made popular in numerous TV shows and films. From Steven Spielberg's “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, to TV's “Stargate SG-1” they are seen as harmless, even friendly. But then there are the darker stories such as the true account of the abduction of Barney and Betty Hill, or the film “Fire In The Sky” telling of the true kidnapping of Travis Walton into a strange spacecraft – with both stories telling of strange and terrifying experiments being done to the abductees by the grey humanoids. But could that latter category of stories be even more sinister? Could the Greys be, in fact, harvesting our humanity… and possibly even our souls? (The Parasitic Greys) *** Over the years, hundreds of people online have shared memories of a cheesy Nineties movie called “Shazaam”. There is no evidence that such a film was ever made. What does this tell us about the quirks of collective memory? (The Non-Existent Film The Internet Insists Is Real) *** While the Loch Ness Monster, or “Nessie” is a worldwide celebrity, she has a distant cousin in America that doesn't get the same kind of press – although she probably should. Have you heard of Lake Erie's “Bessie”?

Chris Judge (Stargate SG-1, God of War) joins us this week for an open, honest, and forthcoming conversation about the pain in his past and how he's been able to not only overcome it throughout his career, but also use it to his advantage when portraying characters like Teal'c in Stargate SG-1 and Kratos in God of War. Chris shares his tumultuous upbringing with an abusive father, chilling stories where he avoided tragedy, and how he's been able to break the cycle of violence. We also talk about the coincidental story that helped him land Stargate SG-1, the best parts of working as Kratos, and his journey leaving football stardom for Hollywood.
