    Jonas grew on me as the season went on. His genuine enthusiasm was infectious, and countered everyone else's broody moments.

    Vala was great because she was proof that there was more to the galaxy out there than just Goa'uld + Jaffa + Slaves + worlds they hadn't enslaved yet. Also because, after Jack left, there was nobody else on the team that could take things less seriously.

    Mitchell was pretty goofy for what it was worth. He filled that RDA hole pretty neatly.

    Also, anyone notice how whenever half the team would separate from the other half (which happened about every other episode), it was always Jack-Sam/Daniel-Teal'c or Jack-Teal'c/Daniel-Sam? They never split it up Jack-Daniel/Sam-Teal'c.

    Sam and Teal'c on the modified Al'kesh looking for the Asgard.

    I will never ever ever ever ever forget the gloriousness that is Teal'c PI.

    Any "Teal'c goes off-base" episode was an instant classic.

    Also, how he gradually, off-camera, became the biggest Star Wars nerd in the world.

    Teal'c is the best

    [at Jack's cabin]
    O'Neal : "The point of fishing isn't really to catch fish, its just to, y'know..." [exaggerates being relaxed]
    Teal'c : "Indeed"

    [later, on the phone]
    T :"Hello Daniel Jackson. We are fishing"
    Daniel : "Oh that's great, catch anything yet?"
    T : "No, Daniel Jackson, we are fishing"
    D : "...?"

    Also, that one time he knocked a pickpocket out by tossing a spud at his head from a hundred feet away.

    I'm so glad they did more with Teal'c than have him be Stargate's Worf.

    It took a while, though. I mean, it's two full seasons before he tells his Jaffa joke and that's really the first time you see a crack in his stoic armor (well, other than simmering rage or tragic sadness concerning his family/his people).

    Yeah, something tells me that scene really made everybody sit back and go, "This is the direction we need for this character." He had some really great fish-out-of-water moments, and the fact that at no point was his first reaction surprise/fear.

    Also, the first season episode where they visit the yellow sand planet full of blue crystals.

    *Teal'c turns on TV, sees riots, turns tv off*

    Daniel: Hey, Teal'c, we need to borrow your staff weapon!

    Teal'c: Your world is very strange

    Daniel (not knowing where that came from): Yeah....so's yours.

    That's also around when Daniel stopped being so damn depressed/holier than thou all the time, and around when Carter started having some goofy moments of her own. Really, season 3 was the point where the characters cemented.

    O'Neill was cemented as soon as he delivered "I know. I've been here before."

    Yeah Teal'c was golden in those episodes

    Chris Judge really nailed the character.

    He is a fantastic actor, actually. Remember that episode where O'Neal and Teal'c switch bodies? Both actors absolutely get the personalities of the opposing character, it's so cool to see them play each other so well.

    Col MacGuyver does not have time for your shit.

    Remember when Chris Judge got fat for a while?

    Remember when he had hair?

    Wait did he finish the series with hair? I can't remember now.

    He had a bleached soul patch for a while though.

    Yeah, I think he had some hair by the end. He was bald for the longest.

    And then every time they went to an alternate reality, Teal'c rocks the top-knot.

  • SimBenSimBen Hodor? Hodor Hodor.Registered User regular
    Yeah okay, he totally had the hair for all of the last 3 seasons and the two direct-to-DVD movies.

    The soul patch though. That was weird. They even commented on it in the show. Some kinda Jaffa mid-life crisis.

  • ToxTox I kill threads he/himRegistered User regular
    Heh, yeah. Actually, I think that first crept up as an alternate reality Teal'c's evil beard.

    I'm so disappointed nobody ever had a goatee in an alternate reality. Or was evil. Except Teal'c. Every single time he turned out to yup, still be somebody's First Prime.

    Oh yeah Apophis did. But he was already evil. What gives? I wanted a goatee'd evil O'Neill damn it.

    Military regulations. Carter could have gotten away with it.

  • SimBenSimBen Hodor? Hodor Hodor.Registered User regular
    In an evil military goatees would be mandatory.

    I'm kind of late but the show got pretty bad when they got rid of O'neil. Or rather when he got rid of himself.

    The two characters they replaced him with were just his personality split up into two different people.

    No but seriously Ra seemingly had two First Primes in the movie. The one with the Anubis helmet might have been prime-er though.

    Also it makes no sense in retrospect that Ra would have an Anubis guard. Maybe he just did that to mock Anubis since he was Big Cheese Goa'uld Boss at the time.

    Maybe so you got a prime around when the other prime has to sleep or hit the bathroom or something.

    I'm pretty sure that unauthorized bathroom breaks are grounds for execution in the Goa'uld/Jaffa handbook.

    Maybe their symbiotes mean they never ever have to pee. It makes them immune to everything else after all. Including sleep.

    Except for those times where it makes them specifically vulnerable to something.

    I wonder if Teal'c downs entire bottles of tequila to get a new worm in his belly. For just a little while.

    I disagree, Around the time Mitchell came on board is when the series got back on track and felt more like the earlier season that were a great balance between silliness and seriousness, Snarky and sass, awesome and awesomerester.

    Season 7 was really the worst season of SG-1, in my opinion.
