Stargate insanity

[iainjclark]

Oh god. I've seen photos from tonight's 200th episode of the entertaining-yet-meh Stargate SG-1.

I may never scrub my mind clean. And now, neither may you.



And as if it's not bad enough that they've imported half the cast of Farscape, now they're doing homages.







It's the Wizard of Oz pic that's truly disturbing me. Apparently the 'plot' involves the characters pitching ideas for a spin-off movie based on the fake SG-1 style show Wormhole Xtreme.

Needless to say it looks deeply, deeply silly.

My theory about Stargate's resilience is that it's the Law & Order of genre television.

So, Law &Order isn't genre TV?

I call this comment as the most blatant Niall-bait in recent memory.

And yet, he hasn't touched it :-p

Apparently even the lure of a discussion about genre can't overcome his lack of interest in cops on TV...

(Oh, and by the way I notice that Elizabeth Rohm from Angel is now on Law & Order)

I'm not sure he'd quite understand the "genre != SF" argument :-p

(And I've only rarely seen episodes of Law & Order, oddly enough - it's the sort of thing that would really appeal to me, I've just never gotten around to watching it).

How has this become about me when it was Abigail that used the expression? :p

You and discussions about genre have become inextricably linked. For some reason.

Well, she was. I think she only lasted a season.

Ah! We're several years behind in the UK.
