The storm finally arrives in Atlantis in The Eye. This episode is great. Sheppard is a badass. And also really smart. But was all the death he caused strictly necessary?
Itâs awesome that Ford finally has some awesome stuff to do but how he treats Beckett as the episode continues is a bit much.
The visual effects in this episode are truly outstanding. The awards it was nominated for and won were well deserved.

Sam meets her Replicator double and makes some very bad choices this week in Gemini. Returning to chat about this episode with us is our good friend and soon to be yours, Evelyn! (Apologies in advance for the many tangents we go on.)
This episode does the twist reveal really well. You know somethingâs up because itâs the Replicators but when you learn whatâs actually going on, it is shocking. Also, they finally use the Alpha Site for what they should have been using it for all along!
Who would you like to have seen cameo as a random fourth member of SG1? They could have had fun with that.

Episodes manquant?

The Atlanteans go into Survival Mode as they prepare to face The Storm. But then the Genii show up to throw a massive wrench into their plans. The one good thing this episode does give us? The start of the Rodney & Zelenka fun times. The two Davids just play off each other so well.
The Genii plan is quite a genius one, really. Why not try and take over a city when most of its inhabitants are gone?
Thereâs also another round of Live Googling. This time by Rachael! And RIP Cory Monteith. You are missed.

The Trust goes to war with the goaâuld (and Jaffa) this week in Endgame. The opening scene of this episode is one of the best in a long time. Itâs just fun and really feels like the random conversations people working together would have.
The one weird thing with this episode, though, is Daniel doing the various interrogations. The first especially reads like it was originally written for Jack. Thereâs discussion about how far you have to move a gate before its address no longer works. Also, how does ventilation work inside the goaâuld pyramid buildings?
We end with a brief discussion about how weâre feeling with season 8 so far with the extremely reduced Jack time and how SG1 is operating as an exclusively 3 person team. What are your thoughts? Let us know!

The Atlantis team heads back to Earth in Home. Or do they?
Rachael raises some excellent points about how the âmist beingsâ operate and that it doesnât seem to be an effective way of keeping themselves alive. Of course, that would lead to a much shorter or non-existent episode. WhoopsâŠ.
We desperately wanted to see Teylaâs shipping montage. We LOVE a montage! Give it to us now! They did do a really good job of interlacing everyoneâs realities in such a way that it was immediately obvious what was going on. Overall, though, this is a fun twist on a fairly common scifi trope that we enjoyed. Kind of. MaybeâŠ

Tealâc faces two problems this week on Sacrifices - the Hakâtyl are under attack and his son is getting married!
At this point in the life of the SGC, why do they not have a designated off-world base specifically for refugees? It really doesnât make sense to keep bringing people to Earth all the time. It is interesting to see the change in heart the SGC has had concerning the killing of the goaâuld from how they faced things at the start of the series.
WHAT IS THE RITE OF ORNOC??? Tell us your thoughts!!
This episode makes some interesting points, but there are just a few too many, which ends up muddying everything up too much.

We meet the Atlanteans' best adversarial ally (thank you, Rachael) this week when we find the Genii Underground. Did you know Genii is the plural form of genie?
What were the circumstances in which Tyrus and sora changed into their military uniforms after being told to bring Ford and Teyla to Cowen? Cos thatâs a little weird if you stop to think about it. And, if you know anything about us, you know Rachael has Things To Say about the fact that the Genii know what uranium is and call it by that name.
Weirâs little rant about how she just sent them out for food and now theyâre plotting a war is just perfection.
And thereâs a little bonus for those that listen all the way to the endâŠ.

The story being told this week in Covenant is one that has been touched on several times - should the Stargate be made public? This specific iteration is interesting as it's from the civilian point of view but, again, some of the specifics end up letting us down a little.
We do think the animation they did on the Asgard clone Alec had was really good. Sam is also excellent during her interview with Julia Donovan and talking around the truth while also not actually lying.
The one big issue we do have is with where Sam takes Alec to try and get him to understand what revealing the Stargate actually means to a society. Taking him to the Alpha Site doesnât do anything because itâs just fun toys and technology. They should have taken him to Kelowna so he could talk to Jonas!
Weâve also forgotten that episode where Tealâc only has one line of dialogue againâŠ.

The Atlanteans come up against a moral quandary this week in Poisoning the Well. Even if the Hoffans are able to make the Wraith unable to feed on them, it is highly unlikely they will just be left alone. The storing of knowledge they do is a really great way to ensure they donât regress too far when their population is culled.
John getting Steve to tell him all the hive ships have become active isnât really useful because how many is all?

Tealâc tries to have a normal life outside the SGC and Sam gets engaged in Affinity but it all ends up being filled with the sorts of tropes and cliches that make this feel more like Stargate: Melrose Place than Stargate: SG1.
There are a couple of high points, though: Tealâc bending over so the one guy punches the top of his head; Daniel asking Sam, âSo, howâs things?â; Tealâcâs addition of âwhere you standâ when he threatens to kill Doug; and Pete thinking to check with the local pizza place was pretty smart.INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch

John and his team run into a society where no one is older than 24 in Childhoodâs End. We do have to wonder about what actually happens to a jumper if it loses power mid-flight. Wouldnât it just plummet straight to the ground since it doesnât have wings like a plane to help it glide? But itâs a TV show so it all works out fine.
It seems odd that the knowledge of the shield generator device has been lost to time even though the sacrifices continue with how connected the two things seem to be. And also, why isnât making sure the shield keeps working part of their culture if thatâs the thing that is keeping the people safe?
We love how Weir puts Rodney in his place this week with what heâs done to these kids and their protection from the wraith.
Please tell me Iâm not the only one who sees a little chemistry between John and Keras. Thereâs something there right?!?!
Rachael has a final thought on this episode!!

We break down the SG1 video game that never was this week with Avatar. In which the SGC messes with alien technology again to try and adapt it for use on Earth because they still havenât learned their lesson.
While we have questions about how some of this all worked, overall we liked it. It was fun. There really should have been some way to get Tealâc out that didnât just rely on Tealâc doing something in the game.
There are also some knowledge drops about âdeath by a thousand cutsâ and the Droste effect (which Rachael had the WORST experience with that one time in a hotel).

The Athosians are accused of being wraith spies in Suspicion. Which, things went very extreme very quickly when there were many other avenues to investigate. Why is the immediate answer to this problem that they have a spy in their midst rather than someone being tracked without their knowledge?
Weâre also missing a scene where Teyla learns the truth of whatâs been happening and they apologize to her. That really needed to be done.
Whatâs with John and sandwiches? And did the expedition really bring all the fixings for turkey sandwiches?

Daniel gets trapped off-world (again) this week in Icon. Would this have been better if it was Tealâc stuck on another planet? We think so, because then that would have gotten rid of the unnecessary vaguely romantic subplot.
The SGC establishing contact through an artifact in a museum is an interesting concept, but the overall plot is something that is all too familiar. Also, Soren should have been a goaâuld. We also would have liked to have more scale as to the actual devastation because they mention whole cities being destroyed, but how many people is that actually? Also, a little more showing of the actual carnage would have been welcome.
We finally get an answer from writer and producer Joseph Mallozzi as to why everyone speaks English!

The puddle jumper gets stuck in a gate and Johnâs team only has 38 minutes to solve the problem. Despite the many plotholes in this episode, itâs still enjoyable and a very fun watch.
Weir is fantastic in this episode. McKayâs panic is a little much, but understandable. The introduction of Zelenka is wonderful and weâre so glad the writers kept him around.

RIP Obi Ndefo. You will be missed.
Rachael loves this episode. Kerri likes it well enough but there are quite a few scenes/conversations that really need some more clarification. She is glad that Walter Harrimanâs name is finally settled as Walter Harriman and he is no longer the man with two names. We do both love that there are many moments in this episode where characters voice questions and issues we ourselves have mentioned previously.

Itâs interesting that Atlantisâ first post-pilot episode, Hide and Seek, has a very similar plot to the SG1 episode that aired the same night. A strange alien entity is haunting the base and eating all their power. Rodney also partakes in an experimental medical trial that will hopefully give him the ability to use Ancient technology.
Apparently, Atlantis needs the memo to stop touching things! If Atlantis was a musical, what would that sound like? This is a good start to the season episode. Weâre getting some character growth, learning about the city. We like it.

We end with a discussion about whether or not Tealâc gets paid and how he operates in the world now that he has his own apartment. How did he get ID? Does he have a 401k? Does he pay taxes? Tell us all your thoughts!INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch

Itâs time to get to the business of the new status quo at the SGC but something or someone is throwing a wrench in the works as the base goes into Lockdown.
Where are the special episodes detailing Murray's Adventures in Colorado Springs? We were robbed!
Weâre still not sure we really understand the separating the SGC into different zones plan and how that would make Anubis use his powers to reveal himself to the other ascended beings. Are they just trying to piss him off?
It turns out a lot of people prefer Gateship over Puddle Jumper! Go check out the SGA Season 1 channel on the discord and vote!
Also, everyone go watch season 1 of Anneâs Riceâs Interview with the Vampire which is now on Netflix. Itâs amazing. Kerriâs obsessed.

Itâs the conclusion of the pilot as we discuss Stargate Atlantis, Rising - Part 2. The rising of the city of Atlantis from the bottom of the ocean to the surface is one of the most beautiful visual effects shots in the entire franchise. Itâs gorgeous.
We really appreciate the fact that people have actual conversations in this and donât just yell at each other when they disagree. Seeing the wraith for the first showed we have a properly scary villain for the first time.
Do you like Gateship or Puddle Jumper better? We honestly think Gateship is a good name!
This is a really great opener to a new show in a familiar franchise. A good amount of introductory information about this new setting and the people there, but there are still ways to continue expanding what we know.

Itâs time to head to the Pegasus Galaxy as we start Stargate Atlantis with Rising, Part 1. This cast is made up of a lot of people who were previously other characters on SG1. But, we like this. It has a very nice different but same vibe where itâs familiar for viewers of SG1 but is definitely its own entity.
We finally get confirmation of the Ancient Gene being a thing. The aesthetic of Atlantis and the gates found there are really cool.
Also, Rachael didnât watch the whole episode because the version of the show that exists on Amazon is the syndicated version that has been drastically edited down. How strangeâŠ.INSTAGRAM: SG_Rewatch
