SG-U - Earth - (1x07) - (Live Commentary | SPOILERS)

[SG-17]

This star looks alot brighter, hotter, and younger than that Red Dwarf.

 

[Snaploud]

SGU could create their own version of Dollhouse. You could use somebody's body in dangerous situations (even experience suicide), and you would just jump back to your own body when finished.

 

[sttngfan1701d]

Surprise, surprise. No Carter or McCay to corroborate the idea = epic fail.

 

[SG-17]

Of course it won't shut down. Nothing shuts down when you want it to on Stargate. Only when you don't want it to.

 

[Snaploud]

It looks like Telford is a coward. Always good in a commanding officer...

 

[Hartzilla2007]

Well Telford is a little coward. also Rush is an evil bastard, I like that.

 

[sttngfan1701d]

Next week on SG:U....recycled plotline!

 

[Snaploud]

Oh, snap. It looks like Telford is going to sleep with Young's wife (and then probably destroy their relationship).

Edit: Though, I suppose he could have just been checking to see if she's been tested lately (and/or was on the pill).

 

[BenRoethig]

The question is whether Telford will actually tell her he's Telford and not Young.

 

[Quantum]

I dont have a probleom with what Telford did. It wasn't his plan and he was following orders. It didn't make a lot of sence for him to stay and die needlessly. I don't see why he should have to die just to save face.

Fair enough. Though, the SGU writers gradually seem to be turning the guy into their new "Big Bad."

If you say so, I'm not attracted to stars.

Gravitationally speaking, you're in just as much as SG-17 is.

 

[Agent Richard07]

Do you think that might happen later somehow with Eli/Chloe/Scott?

Hey! There's an idea.

The question is whether Telford will actually tell her he's Telford and not Young.

Won't work. The real Young could say it wasn't him if it ever came up.

 

[Corran Horn]

Surprise, surprise. No Carter or McCay to corroborate the idea = epic fail.

Does it occur to you that McKay might not even be on Earth at this time? The Atlantis movie is supposed to be happening 'now', IIRC.

Not even Angelina Jolie?

"Homeworld Command"?

A lot more realistic than the very civilian title of office of homeworld security. Still, C.O.s of major commands are 4-star, so they're either bending things for Jack, or he's a major deputy (maybe just the Air Force side)

 

[Caliburn24]

Since they've got ships roaming about now, some without stargates it makes sense that they'd change from Stargate Command. Homeworld Command is a pretty lame title though.

 

[P0sitr0nic]

Were they even AT stargate command? Or was it an office in DC where Jack was said to be when Landry took over the SGC? Homeworld command might be a different OP all together from the SGC.

There are only 14 active duty air force four star generals. The number is limited by statute, and the rank is linked to some very specific, very public positions. The Office of Homeworld Security, despite its importance, is still supposed to be secret.
