1017: '''Talion''' ''[[2007]] [[June 1]]''
1017: '''Talion''' ''[[2007]] [[June 1]]''


(First watched 2007-06-01)  Meh.  Not only was the secondary plot about whether (or how) Arkad was planning on double-crossing them old hat, but having Teal'c torture and explode a man trying to get information made me lose respect for him.

To look for a bright spot, Mitchell vs Teal'c fight was interesting.  It was no Kirk vs Spock and Teal'c was obviously in control, but that's not something they would've done with O'Neill still in charge.

Near the beginning, the way they were talking about Bra'tac had me worried.  After all the death-cheating he's done throughout the years, it would've been so wrong for him to go in this episode.  He did look funny in hospital clothes, though.  On another guest note, Dr. Lam was back; they've pretty much been ignoring her existence for more than a season, so I thought she was gone.

1018: ''' ''' ''[[2007]] [[]]''
1018: '''Family Ties''' ''[[2007]] [[June 8]]''
 
(First watched 2007-06-08)  [[Fred Willard]] on SG-1?  What an odd combination.  Not much of a regular episode at all, but Fred as Jacek was quite fun... if just like most other roles I've seen Fred do.
 
Teal'c unknowingly ending up at the Vagina Monologues... great scene, great facial acting on Christopher Judge's part.

1020: '''Unending''' ''[[2007]] [[June 22]]''
 
(First watched 2007-06-22)  Wow.  As a rushed ending I was expecting a cliffhanger leading into Ark of Truth, but instead they gave  a great character episode with a good sci-fi premise.  The Pegasus Project was fun for its Atlantis crossover and 200 was a huge laugh, but as its own episode I think this is my favorite of the season.
 
I guess this does share some similarities to [[Stargate SG-1 Season 8|Season 8's Moebius]] in that a sort-of-alternate SG-1 is lost to set time right and leave a valuable asset gained: then the ZPM, now the entire knowledge of the Asgard race.  Poor Asgards... nice callback to a much earlier episode with their acknowledgment that humanity is the fifth race.
 
For a reset button episode, though, they sure left a lot more changed than normal.  Teal'c retains all of the memory and aging; he's older than Bra'tac now!  I wonder what it was like for him to return to his "normal" life.  For everyone else it was like nothing, but for him the time spent on the Odyssey was several times as long as the entire time he's spent as a member of SG-1.  In a way that's weird considering cast changes, he now probably knows Mitchell and Vala even better than he knows O'Neill.  How strange it must be for him to be able to be reunited with his friends and family who he hasn't seen in decades, but for them nothing has happened.  I wonder if they'll keep his white patch for the movies, or if they'll make him a bit vain and cover it up?
