My local library dropped the entire series in the free basket the other day. For me its the jack and carter freezing episode or the time loop one.
>>
>>217473512
we've been telling you the whole time you just weren't reading the threads I guess
best episode is tough, there are sooo many kino ones. some favorites off the top of my head: Children of the Gods, The Fifth Race, Serpent's Song, Maternal Instinct, A Hundred Days, Crystal Skull, Window of Opportunity, The Curse, The Serpent's Venom, Red Sky, Wormhole Xtreme, Redemption, The Other Guys, 200

yeah that one and the pilot of course go full retard with their feminism fuck year but that shit goes away quickly, like all great scifi shows, the first season stumbles around a bit before it finds its feet

>he doesn't know
The female actor on the show was pissed about it and made sure it never happens again and it doesn't

She didn't want to be that kind of girl power character, it's extremely based

>>217473758
The whole show is a metaphor about why slavery and religion are bad, and that the entire universe should embrace the liberal American way of life. It is foundationally woke. The main team has a women and a nigger. We are definitely not allowed to watch this.
>>
>>217473788
She's a women in the military. Portraying this positively or neutrally is woke.

>>217473793
I don't think you understand what "metaphor" means
or "woke" for that matter

kek the team shoots first and asks questions later

Stargate is not Star Trek. They pursue military solutions to basically every problem. It's very rah-rah, very militant, very pro-imperialism in a way.
Basically, you're a retard. And the black guy isn't even a black guy, he's an alien and a great 90s bro character.

It'll never get a HD remaster but at least it's in widescreen and doesn't have the issues that the original Babylon 5 DVDs had
>>
>>217473822
>>217473824
Having black, female, disabled etc. characters in prominent roles in an action show is extremely woke. Don't be blinded by nostalgia, if this came out today you would rightly call out as woke slop propaganda. We are not allowed to watch this.

whats dumb about this episode is that the time loop only happened for earth and a handfull of other systems, not the entire universe.

so earth was effectively cut off from everyone for months (?) and it has no consequences, and astronomers around the world didnt find it odd, that the stars suddenly jerked into a new position when the time loop ended?
what about blueshift from far away quasars? asteroid trajectories? we're expected to believe that thousands of professional people observing the sky every day missed the sudden shift of literally everything outside our solar system? or did they realize and decided to keep in a secret? other than that, it was kino.

There's weekly threads, almost. The First One is my favorite.

I wish they added this to some streaming service. Illegal to pirate such a great show. On the other hand, I've seen it already three times. I recall when I was a kid and there was a weekly episode airing on weekdays late at night, always had to watch it and go tired to school.

If I ever have children, I force them sit through all episodes.

do i need to watch this is chronological order? Or can i just go straight to some of these best recommended episodes?

>>217473922
You should absolutely watch it in order. Stop being such an ADHD zoomer, jesus christ.

My favorite episodes are when they just go exploring, some of the earlier episodes desu.
>>
>>217473922
It would be a very impoverished experience since the story arcs are built over a long time and there are tons of callbacks to earlier episodes, it is really much more enjoyable to watch it all (even though the first ca. season and a half are a bit rough around the edges)

we literally have threads every day about how awesome sg1 is.

>Or can i just go straight to some of these best recommended episodes?
There are almost no bad episodes. No reason to skip or do a recommended watch list.

You’ve been told how shit it is. but you’re brown so it probably seems great compared to what you usually see

It's genuinely my favorite scifi show ever. I rewatch it ever year or two, I need to wait a little longer before I do it again.

woke is critical race theory. It asserts everything anyone ever found appealing or saw a positive was actually just white supremacy, thus bad. The core idea is that civilization is automatic and a civilization founded on ugliness, dishonesty, poor hygiene, promiscuity, that celebrated diseases, murder, theft, and disrespect would not only function, but foster people who viewed these as positives.

What's the best way to watch this?
Just the first movie and SG1 then the other two movies right?
Are the rest worth watching or do they at least have notable episodes to tack on?

>>217474097
you do this: https://www.gateworld.net/news/2009/05/stargate-recommended-viewing-order/
except you avoid Stargate Origins like the plague

The best way is to not watch it at all. Second best is chronological order.

That was a shock, but it kept me interested. They should've tried this on Star Trek Academy.
>>
>>217474263
if you think season 1 is kino you better prepare your anus for what follows
>>
>>217474292
then they were cowards and cut the nudity out of the DVD version of the pilot
I totally get how it was tonally inconsistent with the rest of the show and was only there because Showtime wanted some actual premium cable stuff, I just don't like revisionism.
>>
>>217474132
The only time women in the military isn’t a joke is when they’re held to the exact same physical, mental, and emotional standards as men.
>>
>>217474338
Probably to avoid a PG18. I'm watching the blu-ray version and the nudity is included
>>
>>217473512
Its an alright show early on, but I get sick of every other planet being shot on a set in the Pacific Northwest/Canada.

Same shit with the X-Files and Highlander the series being shot in the same area.
>>
>>217474426
adulthood is appreciating that as part of the charme
>>
>>217474394
yeah it's still there in the TV version, just not the standalone "Children of the Gods" release which is the only pre-S8 SG-1 content to be in HD.
it's funny on Amazon Prime how that one instance of nudity gives the entire season an 18+ rating when the rest of the show has a 13+.

Don't listen to the negative nancies here. You need to start with Stargate: Origins and Emancipation (S1E04) or you'll have no idea what's going on.

>>217473922
Just watch it all in chronological order, if you enjoy it you should also watch Stargate Atlantis (some episodes tie into each other, as both series were on at the same time, find a recommended viewing order for those). There are a few sub-par episodes in the first series of SG1, as has already been mentioned, but it's mostly good, just stick with it.
>>
I'm still mad they never made video games. A Star Wars Battlefront like game would've been fucking awesome.
>>
>>217474984
This is that Pacific Northwest/Canada shit I'm talking about.
>>
>>217475105
They never made a video game because it would be impossible to make the super advanced ancient civilizations do anything but curb stomp the plot armored Americans.

Not exactly, no. Jaffa and the Goau'ld may indeed come across as being flamboyantly gayer than words can quantify from an Earthborn's perspective however this is a misunderstanding born of a difference of cultures.

There are no gay Goau'ld. There are no gay Jaffa. It might look like all of them are very gay but they're not

After the Amazon show we're going to have to apologise
