      I’ve never actually seen it… I just know enough to get away with some passing references

          Movie is fantastic. I liked watching Stargate for a bit as it has a kind of pulp fiction fun but eventually just kind of moved in halfway into it.

          Loved loved loved SG-U. Wish that show hadn’t been cancelled. The premise and plot gave a bit of room for some interesting storytelling.

          Same. I enjoyed the movie, but never started the shows.

        Like TNG, the pilot episode is a solid intro, but the first season is rrrough. Y’know “Code of Honor?” The same writer submitted the same script as “Emancipation.”

        Decent formula episodes: Cor-Ai (s1e16), A Matter Of Time (s2e16), The Other Side (s4e2), Scorched Earth (s4e9), The Fifth Man (s5e4), Revisions (s7e5).

        … and honestly the episode everyone goes on about is not a bad introduction. Window Of Opportunity (s4e6) stands alone.
