SG1 200!!!


OMG, Furlings! And they pawned it off as previouslies there for a second. And Sam blew them up! She would.

Daniel's new glasses! I like.

Ha! Jack asked for Daniel specificially. I'm sure he knew Daniel'd just say "I'm a civilian, **** this" if he didn't.

"It allegedly performed well on DVD." *snerk* Nice Firefly dig.

*dies* Daniel is so counting those five minutes until he can say he did his part. Cranky little bastard, I love him.

*dies more at the bit about the title sequences* I have to wonder if anyone who isn't a long-time fan will get that, but who cares. Whee!

ZOMBIES! And Cam shot Zombie!Siler!! OMG ZOMBIES ATE WALTER!!!

Bring in another character to replace him. Get him on the phone. No, we need something actually COOL. *snickers so much*

THAT TIME JACK WAS INVISIBLE! Why didn't this happen on the show? It so could've. It's such a Jack thing. Especially not wanting to turn back. And Teal'c's invisible jokes!

Negative side effects to invisibility? Surely that was a subtle ref to The Invisible Man and Darien's Quicksilver Madness? It's Sci-Fi's own show, so I'm going with that.

Aw, I love that Mitchell is counting. If Teal'c can count the number of times they save the world, then Cam can count his trips through the gate.

The gate fails. They all stare up at Martin in horror.
Cameron: "Fix it."
Daniel: "Quickly."
Sam: "I'm on it."
Casta: *dead*

Is that a swipe at 24? With the ticking clock? I mean, ever since MASH did the first real time episode other shows have been doing that, so it seems a vague reference.

OMG VALA'S VERSION OF THE WIZARD OF OZ!!! Sam the powerful Tok'ra! Landry's floating head! The boys! Daniel with his coffee mug and holding his tail. *dead of squee*

Cam called her Samantha. And it's actually cute. They're cute.

Siler: *gets sent into the crazy dangerous gateroom yet again to fix something that will likely blow up when he touches it, and of course it does and he goes flying*
Siler: "Why does this always happen to ME?"

Oh, Siler. We love you.

Heh, hang a lantern on it. Something these writers know ALL about.

Trek parody! The hair! (actually, Sam's looks good) The speech patterns! The blinky sound effect! Brad Wright as Scotty!

Cameron: "Never underestimate your audience. They're generally sensitive, intelligent people who respond positively to quality entertainment."
Teal'c: "I do not understand why everything in this script must inevitably explode."

Ha, they know us well.

Teen!SG-1! OMG, did they really have young!Teal'c say he was gonna tap that? And young!Daniel in the bandana. T and Wonderbread! "I don't think Mitchell likes me anymore." "I'm pregnant." *dead* I want fic!!

FARSCAPE! Okay, so they basically just went through every FS swear word there is, but OMG! I'm so glad the boys were smart enough to ask to swap roles so that MS was Crichton and BB was Stark. Tapping staggering around like Chiana! Teal'c as D'Argo! THOR as Rygel! And Martin has no idea what it is, hee.

The gate still doesn't work and Daniel is starting to whine. And my stomach is starting to hurt from all the giggling and trying to hold it in so I don't wake my housemate.

30185!!! Well that just threw the fan speculation about Mitchell into possibility. They're probably just teasing him, but damn if they didn't leave it open. And that's gonna bug him to death. Love.

SG-1 as Team America! Heh, I didn't really like the sound of the puppets at first but yes, they amuse me. Hammond! Movie!Daniel brought in at gunpoint! The scribblings killed me dead. I guess it's difficult to get a puppet to write. *g*

puppet!Hammond: "I'm the general, I want it to spin! Now."

JUMPING THE SHARK JOKES! Ha!

JACK! No one will see that coming indeed. "Nope, there'll be spoilers." "It'll be in the commercial." Ha, too true.

Teal'c, P.I. Omg. Voice over by Isaac Hayes. I'd so watch that.

"One last jaunt through the old orifice." OH EM GEE. This is for everyone who's always said the gate is like a great big vagina, isn't it? But that gives us not one, but TWO big words for Jack in one episode. Orifice and salient. Hurrah for no appearance of Dumb!Jack in this. *happies*

Fishing! A truly Jack suggestion. And Mitchell and Vala - "You weren't there!"

Vala suggests the wedding! And Daniel backs away like "omg, you're crazy".

And can I use my icon now? Please? Hurrah for them actually putting in a joke for the slashers without being homophobic about it. The looks on their faces! *loves so much*

"Yeah, right, if I wanna TORTURE the audience on purpose." Ha! B/c the shippers get tired of being teased and the rest of us get tired of it being mentioned. All around torture! They finally get it. Maybe.

Everone goes through the gate! The original team leads! Walter even gets to go! And I think I'm totally approaching my limit for use of exclamation marks for the entire year, just in this post.

Whoa, PDL is looking HOT these days. Damn, he's buff. I like the use of the Wormhole X-Treme "actors" as a means of getting in a few more jokes. RDA phoning it in. Shanks's departure and return (and a slight dig at his acting gigs, I see, heh), though that's a new actor for Dr Levant. And a mention of savedanieljackson.com. Dozens of hits per month, *snerk*.

All the bleeping! And you just know PDL probably said every single one of those words that would need to be bleeped.

HA! When Levant's actor got up, the chair just said "actor". Hee.

Awwww, nice ending.

Whew, what a ride. When they said this would be a love letter to the fans, I did have my doubts, but damn if it didn't work. I do wish they could've included even more - Jacob, actual Hammond, Major Davis, etc, but oh well. Something for everyone. I loved it. I got up early on a Saturday to get it, for crying out loud. I'll be going back to bed now, but if that's not devotion, I don't know what is ;)

So, in conclusion: SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I don't ever want to erase it off my DVR, I'm that much in love. The whole ep. THE WHOLE DAMN EP was AWESOME.

My favorite bits were the teens b/c, omg, the way teen!Sam was throwing herself at the CO, hysterical. And, of course, the slash reference. My whole family basically turned and looked at me and were all "ooooh, so that's what you like" Mum: "S'kinda hot..." Dad: "Let's not explore that road. I need a drink."

This one's staying on my computer for a long time. *loves so much*

*uses icon b/c CAN*

OMG YOUR ICON!!

*loves!*

[identity profile] castalianspring.livejournal.com 2006-08-19 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! I could not resist b/c what a pose! And it's totally fanservice for the slashers and a service in the literal sense and...okay, I am so lame but it makes me happy! *g*

Okay, the puppets sequence was waaaaay too long for my taste, but then, the whole Team America thing was not particularly my style.

Trek parody!

Daniel's character in that was some combination of Spock and McCoy, wasn't it? 'Cos he was doing Spock's usual science-y bits but saying "Dammit" and being emotional. Does that mean the Stargate writers are secretly Spock/McCoy slashers?

I am not the only one to think it's a QSM ref! Excellent! It so had to be.

[identity profile] castalianspring.livejournal.com 2006-08-19 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I think so. He was obviously the science officer but the grey hair and speaking voice was so McCoy.

Does that mean the Stargate writers are secretly Spock/McCoy slashers?

Haha! Maybe.

Glad to hear someone else thought it was an IMan ref!

Dr. Levant was played by the same guy who was in Wormhole Extreme! -- I think the beard threw people off. IMDB lists him as Christian Bocher.

The 38 minutes reference... I assumed they were referencing the fourth episode of SGA (titled "38 Minutes") but the countdown clock could have been a 24 reference or a BSG2003 reference, right?

[identity profile] castalianspring.livejournal.com 2006-08-19 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
*blinks* Really? Whoa, my memory of him must be so warped. The beard makes him look so different. I remember someone so much geekier, and possibly with lighter colored hair.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. And the whole thing where episodes are 38 minutes long these days and how is that long enough to have a story, etc.

[identity profile] destina.livejournal.com 2006-08-19 05:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! Reading your post made me happy all over again!! :D

[identity profile] castalianspring.livejournal.com 2006-08-19 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think anything could harsh my mood today. It's horrible and raining out and I've been stuck inside but who cares b/c Stargate! Happy.

*headdesk*

I didn't even think of that, but I bet that you're right.

lol, i do need to see this ep still, but I didn't care about spoilers. just remember, the gate isn't a giant vagina, it's a giant sphincter. PDL went into the details FULLY before and it included everything about how the wormhole activation plays into the sphincter analogy....

[identity profile] castalianspring.livejournal.com 2006-08-20 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
PDL chooses a sphincter over a vagina? Is there something he wants to tell us? ;P

*pokes* Totally unrelated to your post, but I sure would like to talk to you today (or some point in the near future) ^^

[identity profile] castalianspring.livejournal.com 2006-08-20 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
That would be lovely! Want to chat in an hour or so, after I've had my dinner? Skype, or I can call, doesn't matter. *snuggles*

[identity profile] cimmerianwillow.livejournal.com 2006-08-20 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
on the phone would be lovely ^^ i'll go ahead and get offline so that you can call whenever *squees*

Another unrelated comment. Are you at the same address you were last Christmas? I need to get something mailed to you. :-)

[identity profile] castalianspring.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, still here. Probably won't be moving back until...dunno, November? So much work still to do.

Btw, was just watching a Carnivale vid from this year's VVC and finally recognized the guy in your icon. From a bunch of movies he did when he was still a wee kid. Man, he's grown up! And gotten creepy!

[identity profile] lauraspeak.livejournal.com 2006-08-22 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
I agree with EVERYTHING.

In a way, I would have sort of like to see Ben play Crichton in the parody, to see what he and Claudia would have been like parodying themselves. But still cracked up at Thor/Rygel.

Also, I think I liked Sam's Trek hair better than her regular hair...
