Because I think last Thursday's episode "200" was probably one of the funniest TV SciFi episodes I've ever seen!  I just got to watch it last night, as I play ball on Thursdays.  Even if your not a fan, or never watched the series, I think this one would have made you laugh.  Anyway, thought I'd see who are fans here.

Ya, I watched it last night.

"... No, it is OK as long as you hang a lantern on it.."
"..what.."
"... As long as you have a character point out how convenient it is the audience will no it was supposed to be.."

"... If you are going to rip something off it needs to be more obscure.."
''... I have no idea what that was..."

"The audience will never see that coming..."
"There will be spoilers..."
"Na he'll be in the comercials..."

I watch it, and really enjoyed that episode.  It was amusing to see all the Stargate as ... parodies, particurlarly the Star Trek and Farscape ones, and I found the in-jokes and plot convention jokes quite funny.

Nothing like a "WTF?" when the show first started.  I also enjoy when a series makes fun of itself, its actors, its history, and its future, especially how well they did in this one to make it seem like just another episode, but about themselves as actors.

And here is one for ya... is there a Movie coming or Not? ;)

I've heard rumours over the years about a movie based on the TV series, but I've also heard rumblings that the creators of the original movie wanted to do a sequel outside the SG-1 continuity, since they were never satisfied by it.

That was awsome... I was laughing so hard at some of the puns they made at them selves. I loved the reference to Farscape... and the part where Claudia Black said I wanted a small re-occuring part then it developed into something I wanted to be in all the time.
That is why they are still going strong. 200 episodes and 10 years. who thought one movie would make a series such as this one.

Yeah just saw something on that a week or two ago, sequal will have nothing to do with SG1.

I had thought that one looked like Andromeda.

It was a 100% Farscape being so obscure many geeks just don't get it. Take a look at this image and you will clearly make out the characters they where mocking. Also farscape has a living ship hence the back drop in the scene.

See, I love Farscape and I have to grab this ep! Too funny!

I heard  that as well.  It's sad to see it go, but ten years is a very good run.  I just hope they either have time to wrap up the story properly, or else Sci-fi gives them a TV movie or two to wrap things up.  Atlantis has been renewed for another season, so at least we still have that.

Lazybones

Hard to keep running the origonal and it's spin off at the same time. Although I think the last episode of Atlantis was only so so.. You get tired of the, "it is all an illusion" type episodes just as much as the holodeck episodes on STTNG.
