It Took 15 Years & 3 Supercomputers To MacGyver A System 

Hadn't caught that one before. My own military training usually has me looking for some non-member "looking for Indians" -- early in basic training we literally were not allowed to salute until we had been properly instructed in how to. Watch the end of "Logan's Run" where an extra started to raise his hand, then hesitated, then raised it back up in a Vulcan salute. My late friend's Jewish neighbors had some Star Trek type of stuff (I seem to recall) as well as Judaica. One was a sculpture of two hands with the "Vulcan salute." The thing is that Leonard Nimoy took that from a Jewish blessing gesture, one which mimics the letter shin for HaShem ("The Name" since that commandment forbids you from even saying The Name -- as said elsewhere (ie, "Mein Bester Feind"), Christians have no idea how to read the Bible). Live long and prosper.

Did you also notice, Kowalski from Voyage to the bottom of the sea, Dr.Smith from Lost in Space, and of course MacGyver.

@@terrypold And Sacara and Daniels wife are actors from oryginal Stargate movie ;)

Oh that is heresy of the highest order! How dare they.

I believe they also remove Samantha Carter's line: "Just because my reproductive organs are on the inside instead of the outside doesn't mean I can't handle anything you can."

WE SHALL BEGIN THE CRUSADE TO ERADICATE THIS HERETIC!

Probably under orders of legal department.....

I agree! Worst heretics ever.

McUseless!

@@JonathanOsborneAU You spent 7 years on Macguyver and you can't figure this one out? We got belt buckles and shoelaces and a piece of gum, build a nuclear reactor for crying out loud! You used to be Macgyver, Macgadget, Macgimmick now you're Mr Macuseless, dear god I'm stuck on a glacier with Macguyver!

I think she says "i have to mcguyver this" in a elevator in some episode to

Just watched the clip, now THAT put a smile on my face.

That one made me laugh so hard. God I miss this series more than any other.

According to Amanda Tapping what we see in the episode is his reaction to hearing it for the first time because she adlibbed this line (it was scripted as jerry rigged)

36 hours per day??? One can easily do the 40-hour workweek in just 2 days... Already included 24 hours of rest and food breaks.

uh yea? Abydos day consists of 36 hours. It says its day, but our days include the night in our 24 hour clock so maybe the same thing here. 24 sun light 12 of darkness, hard to say since they also have 3 moons.

@@ravinraven6913 If Abydos isn't a dual star system, it will also have on average it in half. Which means 18h day. 18h night. When they are at the equator. Depending on latitude and axle shift it can differ where the gate is located.

to this day "jerry rig, mguiver" is the smartest man ever to walk the earth

it really is the equivalent of ripping out the cockpit of a 747 and controlling everything by grabbing individual wires and tapping them together. :p

@@Wrincewind. ... careful, that comment might have Boeing decide you are a whistleblower =P

@Wrincewind. So, Spirit airlines?

Yeah, SG1 basically went "wait there was supposed to be a dialing device? we just applied shit tons of current directly to the control paths till we figured something that worked"

I love that too. It's such a great way to add exposition that sounds natural without info-dumping.

Like in the original Battlestar Galactica episode ("Greetings from Earth" maybe?) where the Colonial Warriors keep referring to a unit of time as a _centon._ Michael (Randolph Mantooth) finally gets exasperated enough to ask "What's a centon?". 😁

glad to find this comment

Adlibbed by Amanda Tapping as well, without telling RDA she planned to change it from the scripted 'jerry rig'

Oneill was supposed to be much more serious initially, but they wanted RDA and he only would agree if he could act the character in his own way (he hated serious-military-tough-guy-characters). This is the first episode and the quirky humoristic feel of Oneill was predominately on RDAs initiative. Its not improbable that things like the Stargate throw and this were RDAs ideas in the first place.

@@tomitiustritus6672 An in-universe reason for O'neill's behaviour in the movie can be explained by the fact that his son had just died. For all we know, Jack has always been Jack, we just first saw him at his worst.

@@aceman67 Another theory: The movie was an alternate reality version of what happened before the series.

@@hvandijken5905 more plausible because the distance to Abidos also shrank in the transition to the show. Though I do believe they did flash back to the movie time period and RDA did act it closer to how Kurt Russell did

RDA? Royal diploma of ashats? Ready, Don't ask? Really Ditsy anonymous?

First time seeing it how could you not geek out? I know I would.

There's a great blooper clip from the episode where Carter and O'Neill are stranded, she gives out to him "come on man, you were MacGyver for years, you telling me you can't fix this with a paperclip and some gum?!"

@@monkeyman767 "Oh my God, I'm stuck on a glacier with MacGyver!" Loved that bit. Especially RDA looking back at the production crew.

you mean Richard Bean Anderson

@@fariesz6786 It took 15 Years and 3 Supercomputers to McGuyver a system.

@@danielwilliamson6180 pretty sure he switched Dean with bean because of the channel.

🤣😂

So optimistic, I like that.

assuming you can get one.

​@@OneofInfinity. hey, all went well at the end

Thankfully once ethereum moved to proof of State rather than proof of work, the crypto market collapsed almost immediately upon hitting the window where the ROI was passed that change, and the market almost immediately within a week or two stabilized to normal. And despite that my dumbass coworker at the time insisted that a 10% tariff on goods from China was why the video card prices were doubled and difficult to find rather than the crypto lunatics buying them all up and he himself had like freaking 23 of them. Dumbass.

Proper writers enjoying themselves. Not the GenZ tosh we get nowadays.

2021 version would have been shutdown because there was not enough illegal female transgayhorse representation

It was the pilot episode.. if it didn't receive well, getting P90s would just add to the budget loss. But thankfully it became a sci-fi staple.

Pretty sure the PDW weapons program was made for the SG program in-canon. They needed a anti-armor weapon for Jaffa. In reality, the actors were getting annoyed at hot brass from blanks being flung at each other. The P90 ejects straight down, much more convenient.

@@Verbose_Mode No, not at all. The actual story behind switching to the P90 was that the North American market for 9mm blanks was being sucked dry by all the shows using them at the time. No one was using the P90 and 5.7mm blanks. So MGM snatched those up.

...and once they emerged from the gate its nice to have your fellow soldiers (airmen) covering you ......with weapons pointed at your back!

Why Stargate SG-1 Switched to the P90 (Dial the Gate) By GateWorld ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X9oCdr0HvCc.html a pretty fun video on how they got the P90's

Well, MacGyver ist standing right next to her. ;)

Combining two of the best franchises in the world _and beans_ into one channel, I think you mean.

And there is also the Vulcan salute.

did i see "Mindy" on NCIS as the nosy journalist when Gibbs was not allowed to work ?

That now reminds me of that time when Fluttershy and a bird sang a brief but unmistakeable bit of the MLPFiM theme melody.

@@Dowlphin I have no idea who or what Fluttershy or MLPFiM are!

@@Dowlphin 🤣🤣

haha I was considering Firefly before I uploaded these... I'm only one man, can't do every show at the same time :)

@@tjwparso No rush, you'll get to them when you can. Our beans can wait on your beans!

I'd also add Battlestar Galactica (the newer version).

@@michaelpercha3552 No. That's one to leave where it is.

Stargate Atlantis. One of the most hilarious episodes is The Game.

Sha're is the hot one.

I mean, this show went on air just 2 years after the McGuyver films came out, McGyver was still a cultural phenomenon at the time. Heck the reason the show got on the air and got people hooked was in many ways because Richard Dean Anderson was the lead.

@@Mukation plus it was only 5 years after the MacGuyver show ended. It's funny how distant they seemed from each other.

This show orginally air in the the mid to late 1990's mcguyver would've only been a few years before this.

Ich bin überhaupt nur durch und wegen MacGyver zu dieser Serie gekommen. Und ich liebe beide.

@@ich8583 Both are good, enjoy!

Und der Darsteller von Kasuf

That's how she got the role

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

maybe it was already partly charged

Yeah, but we both know we would have to work 16 hours of it here on Earth.😫

@@JGG1701 you surely mean 26 hours.

​@@DavidKnowles0 You're right. It's all downhill after 8 hours 😉

Don't worry I'm still having fun watching/uploading TNG... just love Stargate, seeing how you all react to some SG1 clips, whether or not people will like them... turns out there are plenty stargate fans subbed, makes me happy :) ... as for the outro, I'll make it better, didn't want to sink ages into the outro only to get thousands of Trek fans shouting at me for uploading stargate :P

Some of the offical box sets actually made the same mistake

@@AWriterWandering It's an easy mistake to make. The franchise don't have a lot of good shots of gates without the base in SG1 until late in the series and the 9th Chevron isn't even mentioned until SGU.

the SGC did create their own DHD and ignored safety measures when locking onto worlds etc. personally, I like to retcon the ice effect etc. as something they caused with their rig then eventually learned to fix / avoid

That too, but I think it was a concept that was bound to be abandoned. It was interesting in the first episode, but it wouldn't work in subsequent travels. It's just too repetitive to have the cast go through the chill phase every time they walk through the gate. They had to make gate travel casual, there was no choice here.

My grancha recorded them for me weekly on VHS when I went away to Uni !

Well, she *did* think he was a god when they first met....

Don't forget the potato battery!
