This was an amazing series, all except for the fact that almost everyone just seemed so toxic towards each other, save for a very select few. I will say that the exploratory portions of the show, the genuinely new species they came across, the new worlds, the mysteries.... those are the sci-fi elements that really kept me coming back. The show did seem to hit its stride during its last season, I'll admit. Yeah, it really is a shame it didn't earn at least one more season.
While SG-1 had its cringe moments, this is the kind of strength that modern Hollywood has forgotten. They think unless every woman on screen is going toe to toe with every man on screen, at all times, that it makes women look "weak." And they gaslight history by convincing everybody that every old movie, before they came along and fixed everything, just treated every woman like trash. Hollywood devalues *this* kind of strength. Sam *knew* there was a possibility she was wrong, but no matter what, she was not going to let that little girl die alone. This has largely been passed over in favor of "punch punch punch GURL POWAH."
If I understand this correctly 1) team 1 enters a planet, they die of diesease and creatures as a solar flare blocks the stargate, they send a kino and dr Rush through the gate to the past 2) team 2 enters and finds the kino, displaying team 1's death, they try to find a cure but fail and send another kino through the gate explaining the cure 3) team 3 find both kinos makes the cure
That moment with that Paul McGrillion who played Carson in Stargate Atlantic with that 11 year old was such a touching moment. I cried because it made that child's wish come true and will never be forgotten.
Great show, but my totally special and interesting opinion of it is that the show lacked likable people and personalities. It took itself seriously and the lack of those kinds of balancing figures made it depressing. It's kind of like House tbh. Lots of good drama there, but it's depression with seasons.
The year is 2029. The offspring of former Stargate leaders from: Elie Wallace, Major Samantha Carter, Lt. Colonel John Sheppard, Dr Elizabeth Weir & Colonel Jack O’Neil are all gathered together in a top secret military facility. The reason is to combine all their genetic intelligence to go back in time. Using a new Super Ship built by a previous Stargate military team. Which is overseen by an Asgard AI. The mission is to visit all three worlds from Stargate, Atlantis and Universe. (Collecting Teal'c and Ronon Dex along the way). To find three invaluable pieces of technology which will ultimately help them to get back from a Stargate world where a team of Stargate Scientists are trapped after a freak Quantum time shift. With no way to get home. Only a ship fitted with a new Quantum Warp Drive can achieve this. The only problem is this technology does not exist. The explorers must build the Quantum warp drive in order to get home. They will face a series of tough challenges and hostile situations in each world in order to complete their mission.
The show had potential, but it was ruined by the ridiculous communication stones and the terrorist raid at the end of season 1. These elements completely destroyed the sense of being lost in an unknown region of space, millions and millions light years away from Earth, when the main characters could magically swap bodies with people on Earth (for boring filler episodes by the way) and visit their friends and family... or when some rogue Milky Way organization can just use the Stargate to attack the ship at any time. For me, this show should've cut all ties with the whole Milky Way, the moments the characters stepped foot on Destiny and just focus entirely on survival, exploration of the unknown, the alien race that was chasing the ship, and the mysterious structures discovered in some of the planets visited by the crew. Atlantis did a way better job at this, with the only exception that the characters weren't lost, and they obviously couldn't cut ties with the Milky Way entirely, because Earth ships could still travel the distance.
It has always been strange to me why people with Asgard and Goa'uld technology at the level that allows them to create spaceships did not create light infantry weapons in the form of energy and plasma rifles? Why reverse engineering didn't work for infantry and scouts, who were in much more danger than anyone else. I would be glad if at least SG1 and the Atlantean research groups received energy rifles similar to the blasters of the Kull warriors.
