Of course, if Jack was wrong there could have been some thankful Setesh guards on Abydos.
At least 19 people know a Jaffa joke when they hear one.
Setesh Guard: THE GODS HAVE ANSWRED OUR PLEAS!!!
Ah, I see you are a fan of Jaffa humor.
A fan of culture I see!
You magnificent bastard.
This is the best episode of McGuyver yet. With only a simple box of tissues he was capable of making a robotic probe for extraterrestrial exploration.

@@lukegauci1159 Dear God!!
STUCK ON A GLACIAR WITH MCGUYVER
He was the best MacGyver ever, period ! Not that modern crap - like all the other semi police/investigation shows
well not a robotic probe but a message for sure
MALP on a stick!
Early episodes:
The Stargate is treated with extreme reverence; dramatic pans, lingering shots, even the cast is staring slackjawed in awe and wonder.
A few seasons later:
"--In ThE mIdDlE oF mY bAcKsWiNg?!?!"
Давай по русски пиши
Koronovirus
Its one of the characters really
He through a tissue box through the wormhole on season 1, episode 1. Pretty sure the character you quoted NEVER treated it with extreme reverence. To him, it was just a machine.
@@alancode2147 lol Fair point!
Jack O'Neill's most heroic act: cutting down the military budget.
You know that box of tissues cost $25,000 right?
@@petert3355 Isn't that the cost of a military-grade toilet?
@@Ragitsu Nah, them things are worth at least $100,000
big "iirc", they'd still allocate/use the funds though. The way budgets work, they'd have to spend that money somehow, or funding's cut next year (b/c if you made it on less this year, you can do it next year. Altruisticly "saving" across years _punishes_ you)
@@trollme.trollmehard.9524 A most inefficient system, it must be said.
"They could be blowing their noses right now." Jack's snarkiness is epic all the way to the end of the series.
@Cliven Longsight I understood that reference.
Anderson would only play the role if he could be more comedic
@@Shadothecat Ironically he was the perfect choice to reprise Kurt Russel's role.
When he said the blowing their noses part, I was reminded of when O'Neil was looking for Jackson in the movie and he said, "I don't suppose the word 'dweeb' means anything to you guys?" You can totally see Richard Dean Anderson's O'Neil delivering the same line.
@@darthroden once they remove him from the main cast the show want the same.they should of ended it with the fishing at o'Neill's house
@@Shadothecat Absolutely. The four of them at the pond searching for the elusive fish that allegedly live in it. That would have been the best way to finish the series.
Watching this years later I half expected to hear Walter shout; "Unscheduled off world activation!" even though I know this is set before there was anyone off world with a schedule for reporting in.
I had the same impulse, but I was expecting just the "offworld activation" part.
RIP Hammond of Texas
Has Hammond of Texas fallen in battle?
@@angryfin yes
Ahhh shit.
RIP.
@@sugarnads he passed back in 08
Oh shit... Rip Hammond of Texas
After the 1969 episode, Hammond plays it cool here given what he knows.
"The um.....object will reach the destination in 5 seconds." I love walter.
Walter also in Sliders and in Santa 🎅 Clause 3 Mrs Clause with Tim Allen.
They should have found a way to get Walter on a mission.
Though in the show later it’s 1/10 of a second.
@@justanotherhotguy Yeah, they sped things up as the show went on.
Yeah I also remember later on them stating that stepping through the gate was near instantaneous travel....
@@killbot86 Hmmmm.. Maybe the program that was used to adjust addresses for doppler shift shifted the coordinates around so they'd be more efficient for the network? Kind of like when a network connection is rerouted to reduce hops. Thereby reducing latency? Probably grasping at straws there, but it sounds good.. lol
The thing about General Hammond, is that he trusts his people to know their stuff, so when someone under him does something he trusts their instincts.
*Hammond is
Love how in these early episodes the dialing of the gate was extremely dramatic.... then years later it was just like "dial up the gate, I need to go somewhere".
That's how technological understanding works, though. For example, personal computers aren't even 60 years old yet and look at how our phones are compared to computers in the 70s
so dialing the gate is to the millitary what getting a driver's lisence is to a teenager! huh i guess that makes sense when you consider earth is a much younger species so as a planet we are the teenager of the universe
I thought they explained away the dramatic vibration and icyness by claiming interstellar shifting, and that they modified the computers to compensate...but it's been a while since I watched.
@@dawillis23 I thought the vibration was fixed with some kind of dampeners. The interstellar shifting was how they got the right addresses, which is what I think took care of the ice.
By the time you've got people using Jumper's dialing pads, I mean c'mon. Sam's interface is like old-skool pulse-dialing and by later seasons everyone's more or less used to touch-tone.
Of course by about that point it's a bit surprising she didn't talk the brass into letting her upgrade that system to dial faster. By the time Jack's running things, she definitely would've known how.
The nightly freight train started passing my apartment complex and shaking things right as chevron 7 was locking
jblyon2 nice
😁🤣😁🤣
That's what they want you to think.
You : was that you or your orgasm
Your girlfriend: you wish
So its in 3D. Nice
right, we don't need that probe, this will do.....What is he thinking, that he is MacGyver or something?
nah, MacGyver would have build a proper bomb out of that tissue box with a paperclip, a rubber band and some ducktape.
@tombstoner139 which episode is that? I do know that later in this first episode Samantha makes a MacGyver reference in regards to the computer system they had to build to dial out.
tombstoner139 good line yes but I’m a big fan of “You know, you blow up one sun and suddenly everyone expects you to walk on water.”
@@RudyBleeker Season 1 Episode 18 Solitudes. It's the episode where Sam and Jack are trapped in Antarctica, after the gate overloads and sends them through the "second" gate
@tallll70 kind of... the actor *WAS* MacGyver (the original version that aired somewhere in the 1980's/90's) before he became col. Jack O'Neill
I enjoyed watching "Stargate SG-1" back in the '90s and early 2000s. Col. Jack O' eil and Daniel Jackson didn't always see eye to eye, but they held a mutual respect for each other, especially in times of crises.
That's Jack O'Neall with two L's 😁
@@gamelaze4539 The other one doesn't have a sense of humor.
"Well... they could be blowing their noses RIGHT NOW."
I'd forgotten about that one... fucking gold xD
The casting of Jack and Daniel in this series was tip of the sword on point!
Can't shake the feeling that Kowalski and Feretti were swapped by accident, as SG1 Kowalski looks like an older version of movie Feretti, and SG1 Feretti is bald, and snarky, like movie Kowalski
I always thought Kowalski needed more of a role in the show as the one person who knew Jackson and O'Neil's history.
Well one of the co-creators of the movie doesn't consider SG-1 to be a true continuation of the movie so the swapping can easily be explained that the series is just a timeline deviation from the movie.
The gate itself had more screen time in the early seasons, lol. More spinning, more flashing, more splashing. Nice rumbling grinding sliding stone sounds.
Yeah that's true, by the time Atlantis came around it just turned into a few lights that flashed around the gate really fast.
@@Camelotsmoon Eh, after a certain point the only reason to show the full dialing would be to pad the run-time of the episode. And no doubt people would complain about the constant use of it.
@@DaSuDanesi Yep; the luster wore off after awhile, but the different gate styles were Interesting.
Because it was new, not necessary to see it 100 times more the same spinning
@Amirus I kinda want to watch Atlantis through to the end again. Is there a good way to watch it other than CBS all access? Like does anyone know a good place to watch it online that has all the episodes?
You know what? I like the touch of continuity here. Jackson was a mess in the movie and this played off of that perfectly.
His nerdy frailty and rampant allergies were referenced a few times and even used once or twice as plot device to save the day.
But mostly they forgot or ignored it. Jackson was surprisingly handy in a fight, better with weapons than most Jaffa, could keep up with the warrior jocks, and eventually started looking kinda buff himself.
Characters change and grow, but somehow I always felt that Jackson over time wasn't really done right.
@@pwnmeisterage it did take a couple of deaths and the complete loss of his wife to get him there. You're acting like he went full Rambo in season 1 ep 4
@@pwnmeisterage your forgetting a few things 1. He has been living in a society that needs physical Strength for a while and only had scarce food so lost a lot of fat 2. His wife was conducted by Aliens if that's not a reason to start working out nothing is 3. He was in devices that can heal death, and we know some medicine help against allergies, it stands to reason Sacrophagi probably have a much stronger effect on them.
@@pwnmeisterage I see where you're coming from. In my opinion Jackson is one of the shows better examples of the shows take on character development. Jackson goes from a nerdy mess to an action hero, but that takes a very long time and I'd say its heavily influenced by his friendship with O'neill. Whereas at the start of the show Jackson is very much Anti-violence and always seeking a peaceful outcome, his character begins to lose a lot of his naive and positive approach throughout and Jack's cynicism really rubs off on him as they travel together. It gets to the point where Jackson begins to question whether or not the enemies earth faces should live or not (Ie. Anubis' Son, where Daniel even states they should just kill him and by the end of the episode he straight up guns him down).
I think the point where Jackson had to change was when he was exiled from the ascension club, he said "Screw the rules, Anubis needs to be stopped" and he was punished for it by the very beings he had been idolising for seasons. I think that was the area where his character had hit the point of needing to take action and put up a fight and you see it a lot in his approach to the Ori story arc.
I Rambled quite a bit on that xD
@@pwnmeisterage Really you can't go on all the military missions and not be in shape. He's a liability if the rest of the team has to slow down for him or defend him simply due to his lack of training. He wanted field time, he'd have to be physically fit for it.
Nerds aren't physically incapable of buffing up or being athletic. It's just a case where as a kid people are unkind and unhealthy habits are ignored. So that carries into adulthood which is sad.
But here, he's pretty much has to be on base and everyone hits the gym. So of course he's just gonna get buff. It would make no sense for him to not naturally get fit in doing weekly activity that promotes it.
The only situation where I got an eyebrow raise was Stargate Universe. He went on a mission as a sniper........yeah he knows his way around a gun but there had to be more much better people for the job. Like professional snipers.
Jack O'Neill was MUCH smarter than he Gave Himself Credit for .
I thought he deliberately played the fool.
@@ianpage2509 That was for the most part the case.
That's the Jack O'Neill effect: despite being above average intelligent, you act so much like an idiot that you've convinced everyone, including yourself, that you are an idiot. Yet, when it's needed, the intelligence shines through.
That is what i liked when they talked about jack one time. They mentioned he is smarter than he acts.
@@ianpage2509 no matter how *dense*? Crystal Skull.
I love how the humor remains pure till the final episode.
One thing I always found stupid was how they never built fortified firing-positions in front of the gate, it would have made it impossible for any actual assault through the gate even if the iris was disabled, quite a lot of the gate guards were needlessly killed or injured over the years of the shows runtime due to being in the open when retreating teams under fire came through or the SGC was invaded.
Economy of space. If you build permanent barricades then it limits the dimensions and maneuverability of what you can send through the Iris. Or you set them so far back that the distance becomes an issue.
I felt that just sealing off the room and flooding it with nerve gas would take care of most biological threats, which is what they encountered at least 75% of the time.
But then again, nobody wants to clean up all that vomit and . . . other bodily fluids off the floor.
@@blazerocker1734 problem with that is what if you have a "hot evac" where there are friendlies mixed with the enemies? Just have light machinegun emplacements in the corners, or a remote Heavy machinegun turret mounted on the far wall.
@@Rikard_Nilsson Yes, static gun emplacements are a good idea. I just feel that toxic gas could have worked in a sealed room so that soldiers wouldn't have to be present where they would needlessly be at risk of getting hurt.
The boarding room isn't big enough to accomodate Maginot Line style bunkers...
Back when Walter was still excited over the gate activating. . .
Once, when Aliens kidnapped me and took me on board their ship, I told them "I don't need that Probe."
They just laughed and mumbled stuff about a Stargate........... and probed anyway.
Hahahaha
Did they at least offer you a Kleenex afterwards?
@@zarabada6125 No Kleenex afterwards...... 😖
View This 🤣🤣🤣
@@ViewThis. I bet they were properly classy, offered a moist lemon scented cleansing wipe, right?
MacGyver looks around the room, to see what tools he can use to improvise a solution...
Now I get that joke!
“The Jaffa’s nose, drips.”
🤣🤣🤣
I get it good one
Oh lord... I didn't till you said that... I'm an idiot sometimes, cut me some slack... ;)
~stare blankly~ WAIT A SECOND, hold the phone, have i been slow this whole time.......are you telling me that line reference this, THIS, really THIS. ~just curls up in the corner~ damn
@@Kafj302 Not alone. Any other show... No way. But these folks.. Im believing it could be.
If only Teal'c knew about sending tissue boxes through...
That moment when you realize that General Hammond knows who Jack is.
Either Jackson saved a wide-point Sharpie with him all those years or those tribesmen in Abydos figured out how to manufacture magic markers
I believe only a single year had passed.
while the movie came out in 1994, the series moved up the timeline by a couple years.
That could be charcoal, I think...
It's Daniel. Come on, you know he did.
Or just ink for calligraphy.
I meet the actor that played Kawalsky in the TV series (different actor in the movie) at I-Con several years ago. Ironically, he was appearing on my wife's soap opera, General Hospital, at the time. Very nice guy.
I watched General Hospital in the early days: Luke and Laura, IBF or something like that with Peter Breck as the head. Loved that show. Thanks for mentioning it.
I-Con as in Long Island I-Con? Cause that's long gone. I miss that event.
@@55Quirll When my Grandmother would babysit me in the 60s, she would watch it every day. I think she started about 1964.
My great grandmother thought it was real and would ask us to call or write the actors to warn them about evil people. She would get very upset.
@@wakkywabbit5446 When I was really small I use to think the same thing, as I got older I just enjoyed watching them. Take care and stay safe, happy and healthy.
Richard Dean Anderson played Dr. Jeff Webber on General Hospital.
Back when Sci-Fi shows knocked it out of the park.
OMG that keyboard... been watching this show for years and never saw that in any other episode!
They show "gate address" keyboards a few other times through the seasons. But different physical props, different layouts.
I'd say Carter showed up, took one look at it and just made a computer program to translate the Gate's coding into regular computer code.
It's in any episode you see the dialing computer.
The commenter was saying the dialing keyboard wasn't shown close up after the pilot.
This is not a good test. The "send more" request could come from Setesh guards.
Because they would understand both what tissues are and what the hidden message behind them is.
I may have been joking just a little.
Ah sorry. Thought you were criticizing one of the pivotal moments of my favourite show. ;)
Jaffa jokes? Let's hear one of them.
"A Serpent guard, a Horus guard and a Setesh guard meet on a neutral planet.
It is a tense moment.
The Serpent guard's eyes glow.
The Horus guard's beak glistens.
The Setesh guard's nose...drips."
Man I miss Kawalsky. For some reason I like him so much.
Maybe because he has a sense of humour? Jack has one too, but it's a bit dryer, more sarcastic.
That's why they brought him back several times.
Too bad none of his alternatives could make the full switch to "our" reality
@@benwillems8584 had kawalsky survived and the goa'uld removed, he probably would've been akin to roles that were give to other SG leaders like Pierce, Griff, Coburn, Dixon, Reynolds, Warren, and Makepeace.
I did too.
Damn it this is why I avoid watching these clips!
Now I have to watch series all over again!!!
Enjoy! :)
And this is a bad thing... _how,_ exactly?
@@WillRennar prior commitments might have to get cancelled. :-s
This scene set the tone for the series. :)
This is one of my all time favorite series. Near perfect.
Never gets old seeing that big ring dialing up.
Atlantis one better
The good part of this plan goes down to this: why send an expensive probe, when a $5 box of Kleenex will due. Besides worse case bad guys get tissues paper technology instead of hi tech probe technology. Which would you prefer they get?
Better yet, the Goauld could have thought we were sending our highest technology weapon through the gate and been caught off guard when they find out what we really have!
I can just imagine the Goauld, whose symbiotes protect them from runny noses, having no idea what these tissues are for!
'High tech Technology' the MALP is the equivalent of sending through a bow and Arrow in comparison to Goa'uld Technology.
SpectatorAlius Spend hundreds of man hours trying to figure out what the hell these “tis’sues” are and what they’re for and if they’re a weapon. Someone gets the bright ideas they’re memory storage
5$ for a box of kleenex? What kind of inflation do you guys have, we pay 99¢ CANADIAN for a box here.
Never underestimate the power of tissue paper...
2:41 this for me never gets old
If i'd been in charge of the SGC one of my first priorities would have been to secure a real DHD, if for no other reason than to save on the enormous electricity bill.
Just remember what happened to the DHD they borrowed from the Russians. Imagine that a thousand times
@@One-EyedCorvus That happened under very specific, unique circumstances and really wouldn't be repeated. The DHDs and the Stargates had been around for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of years. They were used regularly by the Go'uld and human settlements all across the galaxy. There is no reason to believe that a DHD at Stargate command would cause any trouble.
Not Dave I’m well aware. I always wondered why they never took one from another planet, especially when they had the X303s and could have easily done so. Was just trying to be funny, I obviously need to work on my humor as I can see now that I could have worded my comment a bit better, but I completely agree with your original statement.
@@One-EyedCorvus Apologies, didn't realise you were joking. But yeah they could have and should have taken a DHD as soon as possible. They showed in one episode that when a stargate is disconnected from it's DHD it still has enough residual energy to manually dial 1 adress. So they could have taken any DHD from any planet at any time. Although some of my favourite episodes were brought about due to the lack of a DHD, so there is that too.
If they're Stargate ever became compromised it will be difficult for aliens to use human technology. Also they're able to shut it down immediately without having to pull out crystals or reconfigured the DHD.
keyboard with symbol dialer.that why apophis jaffa can dial stargate easily.
0:27 looks like Eli Wallace from SGU
O_o! It looks exactly like him, but it cant be, David Blue would be only 15yrs old when this aired. Spookie!
Probably used time travel
This is the start of one of the most entertaining, exciting and funniest sci-fi TV series. I have watched every episode when it first came on TV, and had so much enthusiastic discussion with others at work.😆 Time to binge watch my DVD boxset again. 😅
gotta love the high tech probe of Jack's ... practical useful and provides an easy return message package ;)
Great movie, even greater TV series.
Thank you Stargate. :)
I remember the full frontal nudity of this episode. And I’m not joking.

Hahaha. I wonder what R-18 looks lile then......
Yeah, it was originally on Showtime; they didn't know it was going to be going to Sci-Fi in a few years. I had a friend of mine digitize and burn a copy of that first episode when I heard it was remastered because I KNEW it would go out of print.
Spending thousands of dollars to send a single tissue box to your homeboy. Worth it!
Loved seeing how it started and used to be to how they all ended up
I love how the gate is already dialing and only then Hammond asks what's Jack's plan 😅
I mean he had allready met SG1 at this point.....
Jack just tossing tissues thru... I remember why I loved that man so much. XD
this is one of the best tv shows of all time, I just wish I could have been a part of it
It's interesting how the series looked early.You don't realize it because it's so subtle, until you watch em all and look back years later
Stargate SG1, the Shit Has Hit The Fan sci fi show that refused to take itself too seriously 😂😂
Welp. Time to rewatch all of Stargate SG1
Best TV Seriers EVER!
The medium is the message
I like the idea that, even tho they weren't together in Abidos that long (like maybe a week) they still got to know and understand each enough
General Hammond was Pete Thonton stunt double in MacGyver.
I like how they start dialing the gate before even asking about the plan.
Talk about stupidity, they have all of those armed soldiers standing there ready to fire if anything hostile comes through the gate and the top brass walks in and stands right in front of them. Why did they even need to be in the room? They could have seen just as well from the control room, been more effective in the event of an emergency, and better able to analyze any threat.
The design of the gate room is flawed. There should be remote-controlled, heavily armored turrets instead of flesh and blood soldiers.
@@theuncalledfor But that would mean someone can't justify requalifying on the Ma-Deuce! Also, this was filmed when the Israelli remote turrets were still in development and weren't deemed reliable enough to field... yet.
Or flip the gate on it's back pointing up so that whatever exits the gate that isn't flying falls back into the event horizon. But that wouldn't make for good dramatic story telling.
Leo Spitz: Talk about stupidity? Did you even watch the show? One of the most important tenants of wormhole physics is that nothing can enter through an outgoing gate. Those guys are there to guard against an incoming wormhole, of course, after the Iris was installed they weren’t necessary.
@@edspeece9641 I have never watched the movie or the TV series so I don't know the particulars of the gates. I just know it is a bad idea to stand in front of the people who are there to protect you.
i remember watching this on MGM when i was in 9th grade, right after MacGiver show was over
So strange growing up and having to catch shows at a specific time. As a kid that helped give structure and routine to your life, but as an adult it's just an inconvenience.
In 13 years, Earth moved from being simple humans to being an intergalatic superpower
And they still maintained secrecy from the population, if not from other vying strategic competitors/potential enemies. China and Saudi Arabia (through us and others) control the human civilization. Even the US ships need and answer to the IOA, and we never meet the ones who give it orders. Senators and military officers, even ambassadors, are pawns the characters played by Robert Picardo and Ming Na Wen took orders, had little influence or knowledge of their superiors.
What always got me was, the US could have sent hundreds of thousands of troops through the thing to fight a war. But they restricted themselves to small teams. Seems a bit arbitrary in some ways.
@@joshduthie3401Top secret is one reason. Logistics like supplies is another. The last is that it would be fighting the enemy on their terms when you're at the disadvantage. It would be like Middle East insurgents trying to fight against the US in the same way China or Russia would. Sending such a large contingent is asking for a mothership to be sent your way. It's not like on Earth where a hundred thousand ground troop can still get things done even when in the presence of enemy aircraft and armour. It's more like the Cold War where sending a hundred thousand troops ran you the risk of getting a tactical nuked used against you.
You can take the MacGyver out of MacGyver but you can't take the MacGyver out of MacGyver.
That's one of my favorite episodes of SG-1
😄 The _pilot!_ Oh I haven't seen this episode in _ages!_
Fauler Perfektionist Still a classic after all these years
Killer Orca funny it’s a lot better than most current syfy
That reference though from Carter about how long it took them to Macgyver the computer system :D
Without the iris, any old box of tissues can come through the gate!
The only time Kleenex helped Jack.
26APR2020 - Watched it front to back in real time. Never understood how the puddle didn't vaporize the iris. Nirrti. Always my favorite.
This show and Eureka were 2 of the finest sci-fi shows ever produced.
All things considered, the Kawoosh and the wormhole event horizon effects still hold up very well
Kawoosh.
That is some nice humor.
I always wanted to see a cross over show between Stargate and NCIS.
I'm really glad that they finally got that pesky shaking problem sorted out.
Well, that even gets brought up a few eps later.
@@JnEricsonx i know, but the first episode is near and dear to me because boobies.
@@richardm3023 So I hear. I didn't watch the first run of the show cause, I didn't have Showtime.
@@JnEricsonx it was only in episode 1, and I think they edited it out of the syndication run. But I have a old vhs tape of the first one.
@@richardm3023 I remember hearing some of this.
its a shame Maj Kawalskey didn't survive longer into the show. I liked him
Ahhh, that time when Walter had to shout his way through the dialling sequence...
"Thanks, send more - Apho.. Uh I mean Daniel"
The problem here is they even had Air Force liaisons to guide them on the show and still got so much stuff wrong.
The most glaring example:
*The Security Forces in the room when the gate even horizon flows out aren't wearing their PT Safety Belts and Hard Hats with their chinstraps on.*
I miss sci-fi tv shows that actually had decent well written episodes instead of the whole season story arc we get today.
I miss good writing in general.
Babylon 5 had a good extended story arc. Breaking Bad was brilliant all the way through. Game of Thrones was pretty good until they abandoned RR's input.
it's not the arc vs episodes, it's the writing, and the nauseating overt racism & sexism in Hollywoke.
@@kathrynck Bingo
yeah I agree
I like how the general says care to explain.
I had to watch a nose spray commercial before this 😂
I love this show........
I remember that première, like if it was yesterday 👍
Honestly, these first few episodes really blended the series to the ending of the movie perfectly. The cleenex was a great touch with Jacksons allergies lol.
The whole tracking system annoyed the shit out of me for a while. Ah, we we can track energy flowing through a wormhole across hundreds of thousands of light-years of space? Nice! Those new Intel Celeron processors are too notch stuff!
I thought it was not a very good way to track where they predict it is going to be.
They never had a good map of the Galaxy set up.
@@JFrazer4303 problem was the orig gate address did not drift off much, to compensate carter wrote a program to tell the computers to take the 2k yrs or so into consideration. only when they got to other gates and saw the controls did they figure out that and not having to use the earths hacked devices ............
It was the iris that bugged me. They rigged this thing up in about a day during the pilot episode. And it's so thin that it literally disappears when opened, so you can't see it at all, yet it's strong enough to withstand all the stuff the goa'uld threw at it over the years.
And really, if it was that easy to make (which it shouldn't be), why not offer one to all their allies on other worlds? Think about all the aliens they met who decided to bury their gates, when they could have just put an SGC issued iris on it instead.
It used to bother me too, but with a second thought I think it's probably pulling that info from the gate interface and just rendering it.
Cut to a bunch of Serpent Guards pawing in awe at the tissues, right before one of them raises it to their mouth to eat one...
Never understood how they're tracking it's position in space, while in the wormhole...
Also it takes less then a second to get to the other side. XD
also funny how in the movie Abydos was described to be located outside or our Galaxy whereas in the SG-1 Series it's like the closest planet to Earth with Stargate
Neko_ValentinE_Butterfly
No it takes a bit longer to get to the other side.
There is that whole travel corridor, which seems to have been extended when going to a different galaxy. XD
As how they track it, the speed at which things/people travel when in the wormhole is a constant.
They merely found that out and then can easily calculate when it arrives on the other side ^^
Easy: This was retconned. At first, the show tried to make Stargate travel itself more interesting by it being slow, tracable, and more dangerous (everything freezes for some reason). Heck, in the pilot, you could even travel in both directions at the same time!
In later episodes and seasons, these details were abandoned and often without mention. As it is as of the last seasons, travel is much faster (pretty much instant; they get MALP telemetry after about a second normally). It's a major plot point that travel is one-way only. Later, we get the introduction and subsequent explanation of hyperspace and subspace (which appears to be another layer of hyperspace allowing faster travel, but apparently being a more hostile environment for life, thus it being used mostly for information transfer, not actual travel). This again changes how the Stargate itself apparently works: Using subspace to dial, and storing data / people in hyperspace, perhaps even sending people through hyperspace, instead of being a more classical wormhole as originally described (especially since the effect of connecting to a black hole causes massive problems - a wormhole in the classical sense would cause the same issue, so perhaps 'wormhole' isn't even as accurate anymore; perhaps it's not a wormhole directly from one point in space to another, but more of a 'wormhole into hyperspace and back', dodging some physics issues).
And of course, the whole freezing thing (and the shaking of cups etc) was pretty quickly resolved, although that might be down to a previous malfunction of the gate.
I think the freezing thing had to do with the gate not accounting for stellar drift properly and just snapping to the closest one it could find or something like that.
The real question... Where Daniel get the sharpie?
I assumed it was just carbon black or coal or whatever they used to write over there.
Man I miss stargate
1:38 don’t think that was used past season 3, sadly. Wish there were more scenes which included this shot
I sometimes channel MacGyver in my own life. What a helpful and inspiring role model! I still sometimes watch the reruns. Same with Star Gate SG1.
And so it all began! ❤
LOVE Stargate music
best probe ever ... just goes to show you dont always need some high tech fancy rig ma role gear to say hi who's there ...
.
just send a box of snot rags and wait
Not very helpful if your buddy (and his memories) on the other side of the gate is the host for a Gaould.
I always wondered why they (and the Jaffa) didn't just lob a couple grenades or at least a smokescreen through unknown gates before walking through.
@@pwnmeisterage That's what the probe is for. As explorers trying to find allies and tech, SG1 can't just toss explosives through unknown gates. I don't think smoke screens would help either since you don't know where you're stepping into so you don't know where you can run off and take cover or escape, whereas any enemies guarding the gate know exactly where you're going to be.
The Jaffa probably don't do because they don't usually go through unknown gates. The Gou-uld aren't every really exploring after all. Besides, when it is an unknown gate there's almost never anything on the other side that can oppose them.
I like to mix it up on the 7th chevron and say.. locked. It's just one of those little things.
I'm sure they weren't actually making fun of real governments but kinda funny how it's basically saying how higher ups immediately go for spending millions of dollars when something much cheaper would work just as well or even better.
Tony Blake my dad worked for the Dept of Defense and he said sometimes the high ups didn’t always think in simple and easy terms.
Jack: 0:38
base commander: Did he just call me fat?!?
Thanks again
You're welcome
PRICELESS
I just love how human the humans are in this series xD
Jack O’Neil is a absolute legend lol.
