Auquitaine - Humbug! SGU was decent! Different yes, but still good! The sad thing is that Stargate fans are not numerous to keep new series coming.

@@Erin-Thor It's funny because the writers of SGU directly insulted and blamed the old fans for the failure of their new BSG ripoff edgy younger audience show. See if I can find the direct quote... *said executive producer and co-creator Brad Wright. “I think getting moved on the schedule has hurt us. And the fact that some of the fans that liked SG-1 and Atlantis were so angry that they have deliberately hurt us, which is unfortunate.”* They said bunch of other BS towards the fans when SGU was revealed. He said something along the lines ''we don't need the old fanbase' and that they're looking for younger audience. They couldn't get the numbers because they alienated their existing niche fan base. Just like how CBS is giving the Trekkies the middle finger as well. MGM shouldn't have abandoned its fans and they may have still been around and not gone bankrupt and sold off to Disney for spare parts.

Wont see their kind again . Shows are such shit now adays

KLamki1 - I’m not sure I agree. Oh, BTW, I liked SG Atlantis also. I’m no expert but I believe... understand (?) the studio or networks contract airtime, producers pay to develop, write and film each episode. When it airs they recoup their money from advertisers based on the number of people that watch. If they make their money back, profit, if not loss. SG has a relatively small fan base, albeit a loyal one. Pissing of their fan base might have a small effect, but it’s all about the money. Networks don’t continue to air episodes of a series that aren’t pulling its weight, and producers will only fund so many episodes when they aren’t making money. They hope to make enough to break even when it airs, and profit on the reruns, but that revenue isn’t guaranteed. Saying that the fan base was upset, has no direct effect on its continuation or cancellation, as both are driven by advertising revenue. Some shows are made in-house by a private production company to more tightly control costs such as Friends, Seinfeld, and SG was by universal. But the money still fuels each season, not enough viewers, less revenue, why would producers or production companies continue to bankroll a series?

@@Erin-Thor Was it the sole reason why their studio went bust? No. The show itself SGU failed because of poor ratings. Syfy formally Sci-Fi leaked the poor ratings. So yes the fans were in part responsible. Ratings still determine if a show is cancelled on their channel. They didn't get that new audience that they were looking for and they flopped and you can't gain any money on reruns because that requires existing fan audience that follows the show for that to work successfully. In other words they were screwed. They spent a lot of money on a show that flopped and had no means of getting a return on their investment.

The real stargate program. LMAO. Were there really such a program, the military would have not approved usage of their emblems and accouterments in a TV show. There are things we know nothing about, sure, but an actual interstellar transportation network? Please.

@@kellyrayburn4093 -- The best way to hide a "Real Stargate Military Operation " would in fact be to put it on air as Entertainment . Then when anyone should "Expose" the existence of such a thing the Armed Forces Representatives could laughingly refer to the Television Science Fiction . Truthfully because of "Stargate " the movie and "Stargate Sg-1" as well as "Stargate Atlantis" not 1 person on this planet would ever believe such a story as a "Real" Stargate Military Operation or Expedition . Even the Television series Stargate Sg-1 created episodes of "Wormhole Extreme" to explain away the plausibility of a "Real" Stargate Program within the series itself to their supposed general population . In the long run "Plausible Deniability" based exposure is better than trying to keep something that "Fantastic" or "Phenomenal" a secret . In the event of an "Actual" Stargate Planetary Teleportation System ever to be exposed as a "Real " thing , the Military and Federal Government could always point to these types of Science Fiction television shows and make the claim that they had always told the people the "Truth" but no one could believe them because they saw it on T.V.,... Now they have their "Plausible Deniability " not that such a thing does or doesn't exist but rather that they did or didn't tell you about it , because truthfully you did see it on t.v.,...

I’ve been through it. It was in my younger days. I was at a bar drinking with these women. After a half dozen doubles. I awaken on a planet with a really bright sun. It was so darn bright it was blinding and made my head ache. It even made me ill to my stomach. I must have passed out after that. When I reawaken. I was at their apartment. I still had a headache. However after a glass of medication I got better .

@@williamwaha3193 thats not how plausible deniability works.

Kelly Rayburn 😃

The big bang theory had actual Nobel physicists as well.

Michigeo Grammar...

When he asked "The General Ryan?", I immediately paused the video to check who that is and whether he looks the same. :-)

It's a wonderful tradition, like Star Trek having astronauts and other scientists make the occasional cameo.

@@slevinchannel7589 get back into your cage.

Totally agree. STEM (STEAM) program recruiter #1

Salute! I wanted to join too.. but Im from a country far far away..

@@danielchong3918 Same, plus in real life the military have to answer to their country's leader even if he is currently an idiot and I'm not sure if I could/would want to morally deal with that.

So it's basicaly like the show, pilots really just want to go to space?

Rhona Lonergan all of our leaders are idiots

So is the Stargate real?

that is the best episode.

I heard "in the middle of my fat swing"

Three fries Short of a happy Meal, WACKO!

"My name is Jack and it means...what's in the box?"

lmao that was one of the best episodes ever.

Welcome in the family ^^

I usually watch the entire series at least once a year and have been for a very long time.

No matter how many times i rewatch it, i never get tired of it.

I am rewatchiing it too. :) Sure, some episodes aged a bit (mostly VFX heavy ones) but entertainment is surely there. On my way through S7.

U and I both binged sg1 at the same time

Star Oceans , no TV character , no TV series can beat McGyver! Not even game of thrones. Can’t tell about America, he is a legend worldwide.

I agree 100%

❤️🧡💗💖Richard Dean.

@@koowasha MEH!

He made that show at times.

You can certainly see his people skills and networking abilities are part of his acting career. he seems very capable.

I just want to know why he doesn't age......😎😃🤔🤔🤔😲

@@aliciabell6688 That'll be a sacophogus

@@aliciabell6688 uhh, wat?

@@Justin-bn2ob he's handsome.

Though O’Neill ended as a Lt General ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

SG-1 Is next to being as real. Oneill's sarcastic tone at times & the way he says things is like Detective Brisco on Law & Order.

and then the navy got their chance in Stargate: Continuum

I always thought General Hammond's name tag could use some backing, but otherwise, I am right there with you.

Two L's .lol.

stuart mcmahon your right!! 2 L’s

Not saying that the AF General's don't care for their people but I wonder if there are General's that care for their people like how Hammond did for his.

I didn't Realize George had passed. The whole cast just played off of eachother so well. i wonder how many ad libs there were?

DemonKnight Gaming I remember reading that RDA did a lot of ad libbing. Sometimes you could see the others' held back laughs or reactions lol also iirc Don was Dana Elcar's double on MacGyver, so RDA already knew him... RIP

Didn't know he passed RIP hammond of Texas

Don Davis was a stunt man on original McGyver series. I believe he was Dean's stunt double or the other guys (the one from Ba Ba Black Sheep)

@@Animalwon - He was Dana Elcar's (Peter Thornton's) stand-in. He also drove a truck in one of the later episodes.

100%

It's playing on amazon prime. :-) I own it on DVD, but found it was easier to watch it on Prime, because then I didn't have to get up to swap out disks (and disturbs the cat).

4th time ? those are rookie numbers :D i have watched it that often that iam taking a few years break.

Jeoffrey Francisco I’m about to watch it for the 4th myself .

Wotans Krieger same here just finished my 3 year break. God I’m excited, starting next week there’ll be nothin’ but Stargate on my screen.

I just finished Atlantis for the first time. Back to SG1

Stargate is an American show

@@Nick-oh6ms Most of the people who made it were Canadian, most of it was filmed in or around around Vancouver, and most of the actors were Canadian. Sounds Canadian to me.

@@Nick-oh6ms The franchise was started by Americans, who dropped it, then it was rescued and carried forward by Canadians.

TheBigHurt Stargate was originally by a German and an American. Then the show was created by a American and a Canadian. Then the American left after season five. Season six and on were by a primarily Canadian writing staff. Both spin offs were entirely Canadian productions.

Ok ok ok let’s get this clear. Stargate is British! HahahhahHa

RD "J"???? Shouldn't that be RDA? I doubt Robert Downy Jr. could have stuck with a roll as long as Richard has and it sure wouldn't have paid RDJ's salary. Not saying RDJ is a bad actor just saying he's expensive.

@@RebelMerc You're absolutely right. Mental aberration on my part there. I was so conscious of not writing RDJ that I managed to!

I liked this AND recognized the booboo. It's okay. People make booboos. Look at the intent. :-)

It's also one of the only Sci-Fis that doesn't show Military people as being all automatically evil/incompetent/"Bad Guys" *cough*Doctor Who*cough* .

@@thebighurt2495 That's one of the big reasons I liked the show, it felt plausible and realistic most of the time.

So it's Star Trek without ships?

@@thebighurt2495 It was also the only sci-fi show I've seen that showed them on humanitarian and outreach missions in addition to combat.

😂😂😂😂😂

Up to 27 Ba'al clones running around the Internet.

Hilarious!

Shol'va

29 as of now... which means there are several Ba’al clones and ga’oulds who haven’t watched this yet.

Same reaction

After watching all 10 seasons... on season 5 of Atlantis right now. I used to watch this show with my dad over a decade ago. I will miss it. Hope one of the most successful scifi shows of all time gets brought back some day

I liked that he got those General stars lol, and the part about General Mosley proves looks CAN be deceiving, he looks like a jolly old star struck desk bound pencil pusher,,,, but could turn around and bust your ass with a Strike Eagle, guy has a couple thousand hours in F-15's lol

Stargate was awesome ... And I love RDA ..he demeanour was/is so cool

Definitely thank you very much for showing this video . SG was a great show. Mr. Anderson showed outstanding great respect and humility to Armed Forced.

Still my favorite show! must've watched the entire series atleast 10x by now LOL

SG1 is quality Television.

@@clarkclarke Me too, never gets old.

With a tank! I remember that episode!!

macgyver!! favorite show prior to SG1

Hopefully, they continue the franchise instead of total rebooting it.

It will be very hard to find a crew that had such chemistry together.

absboodoo Indeed!

Yes it certainly was well deserved.

I think he was referring to his honorary Brigadier General rank at that point, but I could be wrong.

I'm not a soldier, but who am I to argue with a General?! What are your orders, sir? Occupy oil-rich countries? Check! Total respect.

For some reason, I read this in RDA's voice. I could totally see him saying this line. Lol

Exactly! I'm not crying, you're crying!

Do I know u?

Thank you. Yes and he is an awesome person too.

they all were great actors.

DemonKnight Gaming yes. That is true as well but he was my favorite.

Idk if you know this, but the exec has come out and said he doesnt like si-fi. I canr find the source but he genuinly soents care for the genre. Which explains the decine of good shows the canceling of shows like SG-A amd SG-U

@@belac48621 How can you have an exec in charge of a Science Fiction channel...that doesn't like Science Fiction. /boggle

well, tbh, i didnt like sgu, the actors where amazig, but the teenie "problem" stuff just wasnt for me. but man, i just love stargate.

@@Keihryon whwm yoy think about it. Thats why the new SIFY chanel is putting out crap movies like sharnado 5 and our fans 3DD.

@@Keihryon If I remember correctly, Bonnie Hammer cancelled Farscape & other shows because she didn't like sci fi, and she wanted more "earth based" tv & wrestling. Hence all the so called "made for syfy movies." Stargate SG1 survived initially because her husband liked it. It's like Cartoon Network was when they started showing more & more live action movies...the person in charge at the time HATED cartoons & didn't care who knew it.

I agree!

Very cool!

So cool!!

I never thought of it like that. JAG was a very good show as well.

Now it's the US Space Force!

Thank you so much for your service!

I am sure he would !!

same here

I agree, I have meet him twice and he is amazing.

Wow i wish to meet Richard Dean Anderson one day..💕

@@annelizealbertse6018 I hope you get the chance someday he is an absolute gentleman and wonderful human being.

I WANT YOU... to make fun of your enemies at every opportunity!

Vnx yes!!! 😂
