To be fair, Hammond was always The Man that Jack was sticking it to (tongue-in-cheek in the later seasons of course). Now he's the one on the receiving end of it and it just so happens the previous The Man is the one doing the sticking to him.

mee too

finally some appreciation for the Walter

Yup, even Gen. Landry mentoned that he likes yelling at people but couldn't get the chance in Stargate Command because everyone there are the best of what they do. I miss this show.

Well if Walter's gone who is going to do all the work?

Without Walter no one else can operate the gate. He is the goal keeper. Irreplaceable and underappreciated

Jack: You can't take Walter he's the only one who knows how to run the Stargate!

Rubbing salt in the wound lol

Don't you just hate when someone higher up the food chain poaches all your best people?

Good idea! Was going to do that next

"Sure General! Why don't you take Carter as well? And hey, I hear Teal'c's a dab hand with the X-303's navigation computer!" 😂

i would still say no

*their* dad 🤔

Grandpa: ...and I'll be taking your car.

But it's grandpa...you still get parent points for saying no and they get grandpa points for telling you to get over it...and kids get ice cream...everyone wins!

that is like the best analogy ive seen for this scene lmaoooo

indeed

Definitely. But he did have a good point on why Daniel's expertise was important on Earth, too. They were still finding Ancient ruins and artifacts there, some of them being used by the Go'auld. 8th season was really a long farewell to the team. Was good. I still enjoy 9 and 10 immensely, though.

Naw, its because Shanks was under contract.

I think it was because as team lead he could at least protect his friends on the team, as a general behind a desk, he can't do that anymore. Also from a professional stand point, yes Jack was right, you don't send the most qualified person into a situation where you could lose said most qualified person. It's called being too important to lose, it's why the higher in rank you go the less time you spend in the field till all you command is a desk.

@@samsonguy10k That and you dont want to risk your 'only' asset like that.

ultramegaman555 1 year ago god i miss seeing such a chemistry and interaction between so many beloved and believable characters^^, don't worry, you have all the new woke shit to enjoy now

Mash casual

@@elizabethjansen2684 Oh my God, I've never noticed the similarities between O'Neill and Hawkeye before! I mean, they're total opposites but also the same 😂

@MrCCollins1993 i wouldnt be surprised to find they had similar inspiration for their respective characters lol

It's round, shouldn't it spin ? Make it spin!

I think walter is the chair

@@aliabdallah102 the best chair to operate the gate

@@aliabdallah102 pretty sure Walter is both the technician and the chair

@@zippacna is this a D O U B L E E N T E N D R E

@@aliabdallah102 I believe you are correct

The kid, the chair... All gone

I wish. Hammond, Jackson, and Walter being there would’ve been awesome.

@@user-yo8ab1ys9e First Weir, then Carter and then Woolsey? If they'd sent Hammond, he would have stayed in charge the whole time. He would have whupped the Wraith, deprogrammed the replicators, and brought back the Ancients, all with style.

@@gabrielmichelson9830 it's a shame he died

@@gabrielmichelson9830 But then what would there be to do on his second day?

@@spartandud3 You mean after lunch on the first day?

Shhh, let us dream he meant the guy that goes "Chevron 1 encoded, ect."

Jack, internally: Damn, I liked that chair...

If I didn't know better, I would think that Walter's last name is O'Reilly

@@davincent98 I always wondered if his character was based off of Radar in MASH

@@WouldntULikeToKnow. I think I did hear that somewhere

Meets?

Awesome! I gotta go rewatch it now. Love the line... But, you are very attractive.

@@SuperVstech Yes, Meet: to come into the presence or company of (someone) by chance or arrangement.

He did miss the Daedalus for that.

I'm Olo. Hans Olo.

That's probably what the officer outside in the hallway was for. "Sir, I hear them approaching."

of Texas.

There were behind the scenes business reasons why Jackson couldn't go to Atlantis which is also why Carter and Teal'c were absent from the pilot of Atlantis. But this episode could've been an Atlantis episode that tied into Siege Part 3 and the return trip where they meet Vala. It would've made a great cross-over and to see Hammond taking reigns in Atlantis for even an episode.

That would be exclusively Daniels notes, right? Or is there a vocabulary lying around?

If I remember right sometimes the ancients would hide their secrets behind codes and clues. This was to keep their research a secret and Daniel had a knack for putting those clues together. Like when he and Makay figured out how to get into that secret lab with the music and lamps

Actually, Dr. Elizabeth Weir was probably the person who was the most proficient in the Ancient language right after Daniel Jackson. That's one of the reasons she was the head of the Atlantis expedition. Also Rodney could translate a fair bit of Ancient, but mostly the technical stuff.

I think yes, sometimes it is asked in the show from random characters that how are their ancient or wraith. So I think they did but didn't become fluent

I think just knowing the words doesn't help you, you kinda need someone with a deeper understanding to interpret the meaning of a sentence, which was mostly what Daniel was good at, filling the gaps to make a proper sentence out of it...he was usually wrong too tho, till the right meaning hit him in the face.

Yeah but its Vala. I mean really worse things than having a gorgeous woman fall for him have happened to Daniel. Most of his romantic encounters resulted in the woman being a murderous mad woman. Valas just gonna pick his pockets or run up his credit cards at worst.

It's season 8 episode 12 Prometheus unbound is the title I believe.

Check the video title.

@@HarbekVideos I realized after asking the question. Ooops

@@mixer7586 It happens!

Overall? No. It's an action adventure, and it's similar in tone to other action adventures of the era, like Buffy, or Heroes, or Doctor Who. Which means that it's a combination of plot/action, silly comedy, and heart-wrenching drama. Different episodes will more into one direction than the other. This is a comedy-heavy episode.
