I've only seen SG1 once, and I enjoyed it. I think I liked Atlantis better, but SG1 was fun.
Stargate SG1 show. any fans?
- Thread starter urrutiap
- Start date
I think I'm going to start a new Stargate viewing on Netflix. I'm not going to watch the movie this time.
I'm glad they haven't started censoring the naked scene in the pilot yet.
Ha! The new “remastered” doesn’t have it
Yeah that was pathetic
I've always considered SG-1 a reboot of the movie, and I just like it better. I watch it as often as I can.
It's understandable when you consider that the goal of that version was to make it more tonally consistent with the rest of the series.
That said, while I was okay with updating the effects (though I kind of miss the original 'ring ship'), and adding footage was okay with me, I was a bit less sanguine about deleting footage. I'm glad I have both.
Less of the old please, might make people who watched it when it first aired feel old.
I would also say gove SG:U a chance sure it took a while to find it's feet, but so did SG-1, TNG, DSN and countless other shows
Universe was uneven but when it was good it was brilliant.
Exactly. The show had a much different tone, even from the pilot through the first season. I prefer the edited pilot to the original.

I see it as more like the relationship between the Buffy series and movie. Except not nearly as bad as the Buffy movie.
I can see this too, but I'm going to stick with "reboot." Ra's final appearance isn't the only thing retconned to make the series work.
The removal of the nude scene never bothered me. The whole sequence just takes itself way too seriously, given the otherwise tone of the show.
And given then sleazy contract shenanigans Showtime used to pressure Hirshon into doing it in the first place (Which, given the state of the industry at the time, was probably way worse than any version she's told.), the whole thing is best left forgotten.

There are a few SG-1 eps that I like (Lifeboat, Shadow Play) but I'm not really a fan of the whole series.
Mostly because I want to punch a wall every time O'Neill opens his trap. I mean, I realize it's just another example of RDA playing himself in pretty much every show he appears in, but it still annoys the shit out of me.
I know one thing, I could never serve with somebody like O'Neill. I'd be walking into whirling, unshielded manufacturing equipment my first day on the job.

When I was watching SG-1 a few years ago, I was surprised there wasn't more mature themes, considering the show started out on Showtime, a premium channel.
