Kree (coughs and sneezes), Jaffa, and welcome to a slightly sick Simon covering the start of the start of Stargate SG-1! Bear with my voice on this one as I was fighting a cold while recording.

Sit with us and we’ll discuss the surprisingly cheap start of this show, talking about cringey lines, funny kleenex jokes, General Hammond and his all-purpose bluff-calling nuke, the pros and cons of Jaffa gear, How Does The Iris Work Anyway?, and did we mention the writers being absolutely unable to deal with a girl being in the cast with any kind of tact or dignity? ‘Cause Carter sure literally refers to her uterus in this one.
