- 1:22Speaker 3: around my voice, Brendan Maddie. Boys, Yeah, I never my friends.
- 1:27Speaker 3: Let's that's alright, It's all right. It's been a bit,
- 1:29Speaker 3: been a bit. Uh, yeah, we are. We are here
- 1:31Speaker 3: to talk about un Ending, the series finale of SG one,
- 1:39Speaker 3: an episode that I haven't watched in a long long
- 1:42Speaker 3: time before we even started doing the podcast, and I
- 1:45Speaker 3: was never gonna watch it during the podcast's rewatch run.
- 1:49Speaker 3: And then yeah, there was just something really weird today
- 1:52Speaker 3: about press and play on Unending. God, this is the
- 1:56Speaker 3: last episode of this show. Hot damn, and I've just
- 1:59Speaker 3: like had ten today.
- 2:00Speaker 1: It's nine in the morning.
- 2:02Speaker 3: You know, it's this is a podcast. Time is irrelevant.
- 2:05Speaker 1: It's fine. He watched it on the way in.
- 2:08Speaker 3: That's for yeah, yeah, I listened to Quintin's clear Water
- 2:13Speaker 3: just just a song in itself, and like, I think
- 2:15Speaker 3: I remember the episode, but yeah, I reckon. I might
- 2:18Speaker 3: have only ever watched this episode the one time ever,
- 2:22Speaker 3: and so I've just had some kind of key moment
- 2:26Speaker 3: memories existing, and but that the emotion, the memory of
- 2:31Speaker 3: the emotion that I felt watching the episode has always
- 2:34Speaker 3: has always stuck, regardless of whether I remembered what made
- 2:37Speaker 3: those emotions happen. And that song, I've never heard that
- 2:40Speaker 3: song the same way since watching this episode. So yeah,
- 2:44Speaker 3: here we are and we're finally covering it on the
- 2:46Speaker 3: on the pod.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't remember. Do you guys remember, like did
- 2:49Speaker 1: we know as a fandom whether like Ark of Truth
- 2:52Speaker 1: and Continuing were happening when this, like at least for
- 2:55Speaker 1: us in Australia where we kind of saw it, I
- 2:56Speaker 1: guess later than you know, the state in the UK
- 3:00Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Do you guys remember knowing If
- 3:02Speaker 1: I don't remember, something else was coming after an ending.
- 3:05Speaker 4: I remember there being talks, but it was never confirmed. Yeah, right,
- 3:09Speaker 4: so maybe they might have already had Arc of Truth
- 3:13Speaker 4: kind of idea and had that in the barrel. Yeah,
- 3:16Speaker 4: you know, that's what we want to do, but obviously
- 3:20Speaker 4: not continuum, but that I think, you know, after a
- 3:22Speaker 4: while they wanted a few movies trying to wrap up
- 3:25Speaker 4: all the stories and continue, like.
- 3:28Speaker 1: I mean, that's what they've been trying to do since
- 3:29Speaker 1: like season seven, you know, right, they've been trying to
- 3:32Speaker 1: sort of wrap the show up since then and move
- 3:34Speaker 1: over to sort of features.
- 3:36Speaker 3: So yes, especially, I mean you talk about back then,
- 3:41Speaker 3: what do we know? And it would have only been like,
- 3:43Speaker 3: you know, little breadcrumbs on the internet, back when we
- 3:45Speaker 3: believed everything we read online with no question and having
- 3:49Speaker 3: such little access, and there wasn't as much coverage, you know,
- 3:53Speaker 3: even in the entertainment space. So if like a report
- 3:55Speaker 3: went out going, oh, you know, MGM are working on
- 3:59Speaker 3: as Stargate or whoever. You know, I'm making a Stargate
- 4:03Speaker 3: tell a movie, you'd be like, oh, that's fact, it's happening,
- 4:05Speaker 3: and you just throw all of your excitement behind it,
- 4:07Speaker 3: you know. I remember when I grade ten, I want
- 4:09Speaker 3: to say, two thousand and one, and I found a
- 4:11Speaker 3: movie website dedicated to entertainment reporting, and that became that
- 4:17Speaker 3: was my every single day. I still go to that
- 4:19Speaker 3: website everything is coming soon, coming soon, which see I.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Go to that website, but it's spelled slightly different. Ah, yes,
- 4:26Speaker 1: come already.
- 4:27Speaker 3: I'll go there twice a day. But it was just,
- 4:32Speaker 3: you know, you'd just be reading reports and movies that
- 4:34Speaker 3: were three years away, they're in development. They would have
- 4:37Speaker 3: like from two thousand and one all the way through
- 4:39Speaker 3: to like two thousand and six, like release dates for
- 4:42Speaker 3: films that have been announced. But you know we're saying,
- 4:44Speaker 3: I'm like, oh.
- 4:45Speaker 1: That would make you come soon.
- 4:47Speaker 3: Oh yeah. I would just be writing stuff down like,
- 4:49Speaker 3: oh my god, this is a.
- 4:50Speaker 4: Stuff I think, And I think this is probably the
- 4:53Speaker 4: peak of Stargate's popularity around this point because where in
- 4:58Speaker 4: terms of they had magazines, I had Gateforum, dot net.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Yeah, all the interesting dichotomy. Two is peak of popularity,
- 5:08Speaker 1: but not peak of quality.
- 5:09Speaker 4: Correct, I would say I think it's peak of popularity
- 5:11Speaker 4: because they've seen what had already happened.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Yeah, up to season eight.
- 5:15Speaker 3: And you got those two I guess two classes of
- 5:17Speaker 3: fans as well. Like we've spoken before about people that
- 5:19Speaker 3: joined Starget as a franchise because of Atlantis. They jumped
- 5:22Speaker 3: on board with Atlantis. So while the ven diagram Maddie
- 5:26Speaker 3: might have you know, crossed over a fair bit, you
- 5:29Speaker 3: would still have you know, twice as much exposure at
- 5:32Speaker 3: you know, sci fi conventions or something, because you've got
- 5:34Speaker 3: your Atlantis fans and your SG one fans and twice
- 5:37Speaker 3: as much cast members or all like mainline cast members, I.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Mean speaking of ven diagrams and sci fi fans. We
- 5:42Speaker 1: did speak over it a minute ago, but I just
- 5:43Speaker 1: want to put on the record if anyone missed it,
- 5:45Speaker 1: if you rewind a couple of minutes, and you'll hear
- 5:48Speaker 1: that here. On the final episode of SG one and Unending,
- 5:53Speaker 1: Brendan was the first one to say the word star Trek,
- 5:55Speaker 1: not me. I think that was fantastic and I considered
- 5:59Speaker 1: that the ten seasons a win. You're talking over me.
- 6:03Speaker 1: No one heard it, so I just want that on record.
- 6:08Speaker 1: And everything I've been doing for the last ten seasons
- 6:11Speaker 1: has been worth it. Planned con yeah, yeah, I'm always
- 6:18Speaker 1: a long come. I've got that Cooper worm in your head,
- 6:21Speaker 1: oh mate, I mean we haven't even got to the
- 6:24Speaker 1: synopsis yet. But written by Robert C. Cooper, directed by
- 6:26Speaker 1: Robert C. Cooper, audio commentary by Robert C. Cooper.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Just and.
- 6:33Speaker 1: I mean it's tapping.
- 6:34Speaker 3: Thank god, thank god.
- 6:36Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, I did read some nice trivia about
- 6:38Speaker 4: the behind the scenes commentary.
- 6:41Speaker 1: But I have what's what's the record on pieces of
- 6:44Speaker 1: audio grabs that I've had for this? Isn't it twenty
- 6:46Speaker 1: or twenty one?
- 6:47Speaker 3: Oh okay, I.
- 6:48Speaker 1: Haven't broken record. I've got sixteen, so buckle in. I
- 6:53Speaker 1: think between that and what Brennan's got organized, I think
- 6:56Speaker 1: this is going to be a long one.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Well, we'll go into the for the final time of
- 7:01Speaker 3: Starget SG one the series. Obviously, we've got some telemovies
- 7:05Speaker 3: to talk about.
- 7:05Speaker 1: It's hard for us, I think, because it's like we
- 7:08Speaker 1: know that we've still got to do Ark of Truth
- 7:10Speaker 1: and Continuum and two more seasons of you know, so
- 7:13Speaker 1: it's weird, like we want to give this episode it's Jews,
- 7:16Speaker 1: but it's also like it's it's not the end. So
- 7:18Speaker 1: it's a really hard in my brain.
- 7:22Speaker 3: Literally pressing play. Even like for the last couple of weeks,
- 7:25Speaker 3: knowing that that was going to be the next thing
- 7:26Speaker 3: that I watched, there was just there was this like
- 7:29Speaker 3: weird sadness about it, and it took.
- 7:31Speaker 1: The last disc on the DVD box. Yeah, that was
- 7:33Speaker 1: one for me, I always feel that way.
- 7:35Speaker 4: And it's a finale and you're like, all right, this time,
- 7:37Speaker 4: I'm going to watch the opening credits and just kind
- 7:41Speaker 4: of taking the whole experience.
- 7:42Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 7:43Speaker 3: Well, as I was watching the opening credits, and I thought,
- 7:45Speaker 3: I'll admit to this, and I wonder whether Maddi's and like,
- 7:47Speaker 3: oh god, you're so sad, because I will do that.
- 7:49Speaker 3: Like I love watching opening credits anyway, and especially if
- 7:51Speaker 3: it's something like a Game of Thrones or whatever, like
- 7:54Speaker 3: it's got a great tune to that's.
- 7:57Speaker 4: A good like you're dedicated to watch the game. It's
- 8:01Speaker 4: forty or something, it was like ten years.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just watching where the weaving is going in
- 8:07Speaker 3: this particular episode of House of the Dragon or something.
- 8:09Speaker 3: But if I do skip them, and it's maybe I'm
- 8:12Speaker 3: doing it because I'm watching it with the missus or something. Obviously,
- 8:15Speaker 3: if I'm starting a new show or it's episode one,
- 8:17Speaker 3: I'll watch it and then I might skip it for
- 8:19Speaker 3: the rest. But then we get to the final episode
- 8:21Speaker 3: of whatever season, especially a series, and I will not
- 8:25Speaker 3: telling her this is why, but I will watch it
- 8:26Speaker 3: because it's like it's yeah, it's giving the movie or
- 8:28Speaker 3: giving the TV show it's due and.
- 8:30Speaker 1: It's watching and raise you. I guess I'll get it.
- 8:34Speaker 1: That's one. But for the first time, I watched the
- 8:36Speaker 1: finale of Star Trek Voyager on VHS in like two
- 8:39Speaker 1: thousand and two. A friend of mine camera and we
- 8:42Speaker 1: watched it watch the whole thing was you know, double
- 8:45Speaker 1: episode got to the end and we literally sat there
- 8:47Speaker 1: in silence while the entire end credits playing. We just
- 8:51Speaker 1: didn't disbelieve, just just kind of processing what we just watched,
- 8:54Speaker 1: and we kind of just sat there just in silence
- 8:56Speaker 1: watching his end credits.
- 8:57Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, I mean, Brennan will tell you that. You know,
- 8:59Speaker 3: either I forced people to or they would have to
- 9:02Speaker 3: wait for me while I did it. If we went
- 9:04Speaker 3: and saw a movie back in high school.
- 9:06Speaker 1: Because you mum had to drop us home away from Mitch,
- 9:10Speaker 1: Mitch is watching the credits.
- 9:11Speaker 3: Jesus Christ, it's the matrix, as if there isn't going
- 9:13Speaker 3: to be eighteen years of credits for that thing.
- 9:15Speaker 1: The Return of the King was hell yeah, four and
- 9:19Speaker 1: it's always been one for me.
- 9:21Speaker 3: Thirty seven minutes of credits told me I'd be like,
- 9:23Speaker 3: we're paying respect after Jackson.
- 9:25Speaker 4: After those six endings on each one so amazing, so yeah,
- 9:30Speaker 4: no fantastic, so good, so all right.
- 9:32Speaker 3: The synopsis Episode twenty season ten. We're talking in volume
- 9:37Speaker 3: five of the DVD as well, episode number four for
- 9:39Speaker 3: really saying goodbye to some physical media as well. With
- 9:42Speaker 3: extinction imminence, the Asgard hand over all their knowledge and
- 9:45Speaker 3: technology to SG one, but not before the alright launch
- 9:49Speaker 3: an attack trying to intercede, written and directed by Robert C. Cooper,
- 9:56Speaker 3: which is something that I did not remember, and I've
- 9:59Speaker 3: got all these one the full memories of this episode
- 10:01Speaker 3: and sadness attached to it as well, And then so
- 10:04Speaker 3: many years and seasons of this podcast hammering Cooper but
- 10:08Speaker 3: looking forward to one ending for colding not because we
- 10:10Speaker 3: wanted the show to get done. And while this show
- 10:12Speaker 3: starts and it comes up written by Robert C. Coop
- 10:14Speaker 3: and I'm like, ah, I guess that makes sense. That
- 10:16Speaker 3: kind of sucks, And then it gets.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Directed by Robert C. Cooper and I'm like, god, hey,
- 10:21Speaker 1: how do you think I feel? Next week when we
- 10:23Speaker 1: do first Strike on Atlanta's That's probably my favorite episode
- 10:27Speaker 1: of Atlanti's in existence.
- 10:28Speaker 3: Wow, Okay?
- 10:29Speaker 1: And what pops up? Written by Martin Gez Yes, Yes, Yes,
- 10:33Speaker 1: and audio commentary by Martin Guiro.
- 10:36Speaker 6: Yeah, you are the fifth race. Your role is clear.
- 10:43Speaker 6: If there is any hope in preserving the future, it
- 10:46Speaker 6: lies with you and your people.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Yeah we told you that eight years ago. Seriously goosebumps. Though, Yeah,
- 10:56Speaker 1: like finally acknowledging that we are the fifth race, goosebumps.
- 11:00Speaker 3: I found myself wondering what would have been better what
- 11:04Speaker 3: we have, which is great because it's it's it's opposite
- 11:07Speaker 3: Carter or if it was O'Neill and you were able
- 11:11Speaker 3: to compare those two moments where we get a very young,
- 11:13Speaker 3: youthful look or certainly any Stargate run youthful looking Richard
- 11:17Speaker 3: Dean Anderson.
- 11:18Speaker 4: He should have been in this instead of Landry. He
- 11:21Speaker 4: should have been in charge of the ship instead of landing.
- 11:24Speaker 1: I can understand why they didn't. I mean, there's so
- 11:28Speaker 1: many what ifs and should they shouldn't they have in
- 11:31Speaker 1: this episode that I'm sure we'll get to. But yeah,
- 11:33Speaker 1: it's kind of like I understand wanting to just finish
- 11:36Speaker 1: the show with the current cast and not do like
- 11:39Speaker 1: a stunt guest spot. But also it's so near, like
- 11:45Speaker 1: that character's been there from the film, so I think, yeah,
- 11:48Speaker 1: it's there's almost a part, especially with what they did
- 11:50Speaker 1: with the Asgard, which I personally don't agree with me
- 11:53Speaker 1: and I know the fantom is very kind of you know.
- 11:56Speaker 4: I mean, I think someone had to die, you know
- 11:59Speaker 4: what I mean, could have been Landry, that would have
- 12:02Speaker 4: been Yeah, I guess he did technically for a minute there, Yeah,
- 12:06Speaker 4: it's just yeah, I didn't like the suicide thing.
- 12:10Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but just yeah, on your own nail thing,
- 12:13Speaker 1: Like I think it's we we spoke about it maybe
- 12:15Speaker 1: a couple of seasons ago. And for a while there
- 12:18Speaker 1: it was kind of like the the core four of
- 12:21Speaker 1: the team, they had their own connections to these alien species.
- 12:25Speaker 1: Like Daniel was the Ancients, O'Neill was the as Guard,
- 12:29Speaker 1: Carter was kind of the Tokra for a while between
- 12:31Speaker 1: Joel and I and her dad, you know, the Jaafar
- 12:35Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. So it's like they
- 12:36Speaker 1: all kind of had their own sort of things. And
- 12:38Speaker 1: then I feel like, what was it season season seven
- 12:43Speaker 1: maybe was that episode where like Carter was suddenly she
- 12:45Speaker 1: was the one with with the Asgard a lot, she
- 12:47Speaker 1: was with the one she hugs Thor and stuff. Like that,
- 12:51Speaker 1: the one whether they like they're fighting remplicators yellow ones. Yeah,
- 12:56Speaker 1: so there was kind of this sort of mish smash around,
- 12:58Speaker 1: and then obviously there's the whole O'Neal thing with you know,
- 13:00Speaker 1: the downloaded ancient information twice now and all that kind
- 13:03Speaker 1: of stuff. But yeah, I always kind of when I
- 13:06Speaker 1: think of Thor in particular, I kind of always associate
- 13:08Speaker 1: him with O'Neill, So I think, yeah, I think there
- 13:12Speaker 1: would have been a little more emotional resonance if they
- 13:15Speaker 1: did go, you know, going through with this the whole
- 13:17Speaker 1: Asgard mass suicide thing. To have O'Neill there to be
- 13:22Speaker 1: the one to hear that, I think would have would
- 13:24Speaker 1: have been an even more like would have been like
- 13:26Speaker 1: a ten hards moment.
- 13:28Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I didn't remember that. That's how it started.
- 13:31Speaker 3: I didn't remember the as Guard until I read the
- 13:34Speaker 3: synopsis before I put the disk in. I've forgotten the
- 13:38Speaker 3: as Guard were attached to it at all. I think
- 13:40Speaker 3: the only memories that I had were the four of them,
- 13:43Speaker 3: not Landry, the four of them on a ship that
- 13:46Speaker 3: was fired upon, and I thought all that happened. Pre credits.
- 13:49Speaker 1: There's six, Mitchell, there's six, including five members of.
- 13:52Speaker 3: Sorry, yeah, sorry, I still haven't made an impact on me. Okay,
- 13:58Speaker 3: And I did some quick just quick maps, and I'm
- 14:00Speaker 3: just thinking cool Unit SG one. There's always four members,
- 14:02Speaker 3: and there really isn't, Okay, I'm so sorry. I love
- 14:05Speaker 3: Claudia Black. Nothing on Claudia and I do. I have
- 14:09Speaker 3: enjoyed Varla since what midway through season nine, which even
- 14:12Speaker 3: came as a surprise.
- 14:13Speaker 1: I mean, way do we do fascape in another five years?
- 14:16Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 14:18Speaker 4: Let's talk about Vala then, because we've all had kind
- 14:22Speaker 4: of mixed emotions about her over this period and they've tried,
- 14:25Speaker 4: they have given her a good character arc, but then
- 14:28Speaker 4: they've kind of taken some of it back. So what
- 14:30Speaker 4: are your thoughts on specifically those scenes with Michael Shanks,
- 14:34Speaker 4: the Daniel Jackson ones.
- 14:36Speaker 3: I mean, as much as I've not liked her for
- 14:39Speaker 3: certain reasons, I was watching him just unload on her
- 14:44Speaker 3: and I was like, dude, shut. And also because in
- 14:49Speaker 3: this rewatch we've sort of I've looked at Daniel in
- 14:52Speaker 3: a different light and a bit more. I don't know,
- 14:54Speaker 3: I've just sort of seen him as a lot more
- 14:55Speaker 3: of a dick than what I did way back when
- 14:58Speaker 3: and so that can't dominates in then also the culmination
- 15:03Speaker 3: of of Valley getting absolutely roasted, and I just I
- 15:07Speaker 3: was very awkward watching that because I was like, ah,
- 15:10Speaker 3: there's there's obviously something that it's like a dream or
- 15:14Speaker 3: something like what's going there's no way that they can
- 15:16Speaker 3: recover from. And obviously, as you know, I'm like, okay,
- 15:18Speaker 3: there's going to be a flick here where this is all.
- 15:21Speaker 3: This is so emotional, it's going to be a very
- 15:23Speaker 3: easy switch to go from like this this gestating hatred
- 15:28Speaker 3: into bang. Obviously we're so into each other and it
- 15:32Speaker 3: is going to become one extreme and go to another.
- 15:34Speaker 3: That's okay, but I just crazy sex too. Oh wow,
- 15:39Speaker 3: it's crazy, like and you know, she's had a lot.
- 15:41Speaker 3: She tells us she's had a lot, a lot of
- 15:43Speaker 3: different species, a lot of.
- 15:45Speaker 1: Crops.
- 15:47Speaker 3: So when she comes out and even she looks flustered,
- 15:49Speaker 3: and it's like, oh, okay, that was a session. Yea,
- 15:52Speaker 3: Like hear Mitchell's been running circles around the entire ship
- 15:56Speaker 3: and he goes, I'm not that sweaty, you know, like
- 15:58Speaker 3: they've had one.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Hell well, not to mention like we talked about it
- 16:02Speaker 1: in the early seasons, like even though Daniel's whole rais
- 16:05Speaker 1: on death row for the first like three or four seasons,
- 16:07Speaker 1: was trying to find Charhra he like they remember, like
- 16:11Speaker 1: we had the running tally of how many different birds
- 16:13Speaker 1: he hooked up with, and then finally once he found
- 16:16Speaker 1: char and she was killed, he he didn't hook up
- 16:19Speaker 1: with him anymore.
- 16:20Speaker 3: I just wanted an extra line in that delivery where
- 16:23Speaker 3: he's like there was I never thought it I'd be
- 16:25Speaker 3: able to get past my wife, but god knows, I tried.
- 16:29Speaker 3: That one girl said you did you really did, Daniel.
- 16:32Speaker 3: You gave it a red hot cray. That one girl
- 16:34Speaker 3: who told me what trees were? She seems so simple.
- 16:37Speaker 3: I thought she was a a cave woman.
- 16:42Speaker 6: I don't remember the name, but.
- 16:44Speaker 4: Yeah, you can imagine though in season six when he ascended,
- 16:48Speaker 4: he's probably everybody I.
- 16:50Speaker 1: Mean yeah, I mean we never really addressed do we
- 16:53Speaker 1: think the galaxy? And Omar? Do you think he did
- 16:55Speaker 1: the galaxy?
- 17:00Speaker 3: So I think why there was so much baby I naked,
- 17:05Speaker 3: how I felt get to, you know, twenty years down
- 17:09Speaker 3: the track and they've been with each other, and you
- 17:11Speaker 3: get fifty years and by the end of it, overall
- 17:13Speaker 3: down the track and they're saying they're farewells, they're not
- 17:17Speaker 3: going to and I'm like, yeah, I didn't. I didn't
- 17:18Speaker 3: feel like at least in this rewatch. And maybe if
- 17:21Speaker 3: I watch it again tomorrow, or if I remembered what
- 17:23Speaker 3: I really thought fifteen years ago or something, i'd feel differently,
- 17:26Speaker 3: But in this rewatch, I didn't. I didn't watch that
- 17:30Speaker 3: and go that that was just there to serve this
- 17:32Speaker 3: episode and to make us feel something. It didn't feel
- 17:35Speaker 3: completely unjustified for me.
- 17:37Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he did.
- 17:38Speaker 1: For Ellen, apparently, I was talking with Jacob and Ellen
- 17:40Speaker 1: and they'd watched it recently, and yeah, Ellen was very
- 17:43Speaker 1: much not a fan of the Daniel Valla did not
- 17:46Speaker 1: buy it at all. Yeah. She and I actually got
- 17:48Speaker 1: into a quite a heated argument about it. Because I
- 17:49Speaker 1: love it.
- 17:50Speaker 3: I love that.
- 17:50Speaker 1: I love the scene with Daniel and Varla. I'm always
- 17:52Speaker 1: just seated and silent and staring for that scene. I
- 17:55Speaker 1: think it's so good, despite what obviously Cooper says about
- 17:57Speaker 1: it in the audio commentary, which we'll get to. But
- 18:00Speaker 1: then there's also the moment during the montage where you
- 18:04Speaker 1: see Varla crying and Daniel consultant.
- 18:07Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't remember that.
- 18:09Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a that was a hit. It's a
- 18:11Speaker 1: very much choose your own adventure on what you think
- 18:14Speaker 1: that could be in terms of, you know, she's really
- 18:16Speaker 1: having trouble dealing with he hit her. Yeah, he hit
- 18:19Speaker 1: a maybe teal kid on her, and she cheated on
- 18:22Speaker 1: till or whatever. But he was confessing already the way
- 18:26Speaker 1: the way the actors and the director played it in
- 18:28Speaker 1: the scene, this is the subtext.
- 18:31Speaker 6: We talked a lot about what is she crying about?
- 18:33Speaker 7: Here?
- 18:35Speaker 8: In my mind she had gotten pregnant and last the
- 18:40Speaker 8: baby that those were the sorts of things where there
- 18:44Speaker 8: are moments that may have happened over you know, the
- 18:46Speaker 8: course of fifty years.
- 18:48Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 18:49Speaker 4: Really I thought it was I don't like hearing that
- 18:51Speaker 4: at all, because I thought it was her opening up
- 18:54Speaker 4: to Daniel about her life experience and how.
- 18:59Speaker 3: That's only read it as a lost pregnancy.
- 19:02Speaker 1: I did too, and that's what Ellen and I got
- 19:04Speaker 1: into kind of an argument that She's like, what you
- 19:05Speaker 1: and I had to go and find that bit of
- 19:06Speaker 1: audio and play it for it, and she was like,
- 19:08Speaker 1: you read it. She's like, I don't like that.
- 19:10Speaker 3: I mean having said that, I'm like, why would you, Like,
- 19:17Speaker 3: it's not just like, hey, you can conjure up some
- 19:20Speaker 3: some some condoms and make sure that that's not gonna happen.
- 19:22Speaker 3: But awesome, you know, hey, me punched it in. Get
- 19:27Speaker 3: some after the after morning.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Yeast, I U D must be fantastic.
- 19:32Speaker 3: Just pop one of those, you know. It's just like
- 19:35Speaker 3: when you watch you know, Okay, so the quiet Place
- 19:37Speaker 3: or a quiet place, sorry love the movie obviously horrific start,
- 19:41Speaker 3: and then it skips a couple of years down the
- 19:43Speaker 3: road and they're pregnant. I'm like, I want you to
- 19:45Speaker 3: still be a passionate, married couple that love each other
- 19:47Speaker 3: and you, of course you're gonna still have sex in
- 19:49Speaker 3: the post apocalyptic, but like, don't get pregnant, man, And
- 19:54Speaker 3: like that made for an exciting, like scary build up
- 19:58Speaker 3: the entire film, like what happens when baby is born?
- 20:01Speaker 3: And then when the baby is born, it's like you
- 20:02Speaker 3: can't stop a newborn baby from crying and a woman
- 20:05Speaker 3: going through labor and all that sort of stuff. But
- 20:06Speaker 3: it's like, how do you get yourself in this position? Guys?
- 20:08Speaker 3: And I'm looking at that guy and you were stuck
- 20:10Speaker 3: on a ship like you were technically I guess safe
- 20:13Speaker 3: in a way like there are no outside dangers. You're
- 20:17Speaker 3: not going to get the house is gonna get destroyed
- 20:18Speaker 3: by a hurricane, You're not going to get attacked by
- 20:20Speaker 3: grizzlies in a cabin in the middle of the woods
- 20:23Speaker 3: or something like that. There are no criminals are going
- 20:25Speaker 3: to break in and kill you. But eventually if.
- 20:29Speaker 1: Yeah, is the most responsible thing.
- 20:31Speaker 3: Yeah, And but either way, look, you know again, so
- 20:34Speaker 3: was it pure accident, whatever it happens, and then they're
- 20:38Speaker 3: excited or you know, she's getting to have a child.
- 20:40Speaker 3: That isn't you know, the coming you know of the Antichrist.
- 20:46Speaker 3: You know, that's that's just how I read that, And
- 20:48Speaker 3: I guess it's just a way of showing something that
- 20:49Speaker 3: they probably never would have otherwise delved into, certainly between
- 20:52Speaker 3: those two characters.
- 20:53Speaker 1: And sing aspect, because it's like, yeah, you like you
- 20:55Speaker 1: could imagine being stuck in in that ship fifty years
- 20:58Speaker 1: just being like, well, do I put my life on
- 21:01Speaker 1: hold or do we just have life? You know, just
- 21:03Speaker 1: have a live And that's the natural progression, you know,
- 21:07Speaker 1: for a couple to do, is you know, you know,
- 21:08Speaker 1: think about kids and all that kind of stuff. Even
- 21:10Speaker 1: whether it's an accident or not. But it's also the
- 21:13Speaker 1: I would say irresponsibility of being like you are trapped
- 21:16Speaker 1: on a ship in a time dilation bubble. Why and
- 21:19Speaker 1: you're all suffering? Like that's the underlying thing is they're
- 21:23Speaker 1: trying to have a life while suffering through this. Why
- 21:26Speaker 1: would you bring someone else into it who doesn't have
- 21:30Speaker 1: a choice, Like if you have a child, that child
- 21:32Speaker 1: is now stuck on that why she.
- 21:34Speaker 4: Was crying because they it wasn't it was an intentional loss.
- 21:39Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it could get done. Yeah, but I
- 21:43Speaker 1: mean I do like that it was left ambiguous and
- 21:45Speaker 1: that like, like I think Brennan's sort of interpretation is
- 21:48Speaker 1: just as valid, And I think that's great what we
- 21:49Speaker 1: were talking about the book version in that it can
- 21:52Speaker 1: be anything you want it to be, just because the
- 21:54Speaker 1: actor and the and the writer felt had that intention
- 21:59Speaker 1: the way it was, Yeah, there's no dialogue, there's no context,
- 22:02Speaker 1: so you can actually sort of have choose your own
- 22:04Speaker 1: adventure with that, which I think was the correct way
- 22:06Speaker 1: to do it. What I don't think was the correct
- 22:09Speaker 1: quay to it is with the the Daniel Varala scene,
- 22:12Speaker 1: the fighting scene where they get together is Robert c.
- 22:16Speaker 1: Cooper's just humbleness on the way he likes to direct.
- 22:22Speaker 6: I love that angle.
- 22:23Speaker 8: That was one of the third cameras we popped in
- 22:25Speaker 8: at the last minute, and it felt sort of Woody
- 22:26Speaker 8: Allen ish the way he was sort of working in
- 22:29Speaker 8: and out of the frame, and it was not quite
- 22:34Speaker 8: online with his with his performance, and it was separated
- 22:38Speaker 8: him and made him feel disconnected from her.
- 22:42Speaker 7: And I like that.
- 22:43Speaker 3: Okay, so have I I have I stopped counting it too?
- 22:47Speaker 3: Or is he he's compared himself to what do you?
- 22:50Speaker 4: I mean, he's done it twice there. He commared himself
- 22:52Speaker 4: to will Woody Allen back in Sea Really yeah, oh
- 22:55Speaker 4: is that an Allen thing as well?
- 22:56Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah? Who the guy Kubrick?
- 23:01Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, Kubrick.
- 23:02Speaker 1: But he also mentioned Woody Allen in Stetita as well.
- 23:04Speaker 1: He say Spielberg or something.
- 23:06Speaker 3: He's the guy that did a couple of because he
- 23:08Speaker 3: was now says three. Yeah, I mean he obviously obviously, Yeah,
- 23:15Speaker 3: he's TV's Kubrick or TV's Woody Allen. And also I
- 23:19Speaker 3: guess he was saying the shot but like even in
- 23:21Speaker 3: that two thousand and what seven, you know, yeah, maybe
- 23:25Speaker 3: don't compare yourself to Woody Allen mate, like you know,
- 23:28Speaker 3: I don't call me crazy. Yeah, well even just further
- 23:35Speaker 3: that's that's all those scenes, even this relationship and what
- 23:39Speaker 3: could could possibly come from it. Have both of you
- 23:41Speaker 3: guys seen Passengers with Chris Pratt and Jennifer Yes, yeah so,
- 23:45Speaker 3: And I don't spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen it,
- 23:47Speaker 3: but like you know the premise of that you watch
- 23:49Speaker 3: the trailer is that he wakes there on what a journey,
- 23:51Speaker 3: like an eighty year journey or something, yeah, from base
- 23:54Speaker 3: cruise ship or Earth to wherever to repopulate somewhere, and
- 23:58Speaker 3: he accidentally wakes up halfway through and then decides to
- 24:02Speaker 3: bring someone else out of stasis. And he just accidentally
- 24:04Speaker 3: brings out the hottest chick on the on the ship
- 24:07Speaker 3: and goes, oh whoop, see it'll wake you up too.
- 24:10Speaker 1: And like it's vacuuming and one of the plugs.
- 24:13Speaker 3: And then like obviously you know their relationship and it's like, well,
- 24:16Speaker 3: what do we go back to sleep or do we
- 24:18Speaker 3: you know, they enjoy each other's because like what are
- 24:21Speaker 3: they supposed to do? And like a whole movie and
- 24:23Speaker 3: go go and see it, but like that too. It's
- 24:25Speaker 3: like they've they've got a mission to be a part
- 24:29Speaker 3: of and what's a responsible thing to do. You've got
- 24:33Speaker 3: this relationship, but the environment you're I mean in saying
- 24:36Speaker 3: that we all exist in this and you saying something
- 24:38Speaker 3: before reminded me of a friend of mine's wedding and
- 24:43Speaker 3: the guys she married look a bit of a weird
- 24:44Speaker 3: kid anyway, But in his groom's speech, he started going
- 24:48Speaker 3: off about how he's got these fears for the future
- 24:50Speaker 3: and bringing children into the world because of how the
- 24:53Speaker 3: world is, and like whether it's a responsible thing to
- 24:55Speaker 3: bring kids in this. I'm like, dude, fun party, Like great,
- 24:58Speaker 3: Probably great point for a podcast or something, or a
- 25:00Speaker 3: little like a Ted talk, maybe not for delivering the speech.
- 25:04Speaker 3: And like quote unquote the happy day between you and
- 25:06Speaker 3: your missus, And I remember thinking what a fruit lipy
- 25:09Speaker 3: sounded like at the time. But then like, I've got
- 25:11Speaker 3: four kids now, and there's you know, quite every new week,
- 25:14Speaker 3: there's another every week there's a new war popping up
- 25:16Speaker 3: or something. And you know, whether it's a climate issue,
- 25:19Speaker 3: whether you believe in it or you don't, or just
- 25:20Speaker 3: the fact of how hard it is to buy a
- 25:21Speaker 3: freaking house at the moment and in the economy, whatever
- 25:24Speaker 3: it might be. And I'm sitting there going, what do
- 25:26Speaker 3: my kid's future look like in thirty years? They're all
- 25:30Speaker 3: like eleven and under, what does that look like for
- 25:32Speaker 3: them in thirty And do I you know what if
- 25:36Speaker 3: I cart it in a week in ten years and
- 25:39Speaker 3: they're growing up and I can't do anything about it?
- 25:41Speaker 3: And is it responsible to have had is it responsible
- 25:45Speaker 3: to have doubled me and my wife and I have
- 25:46Speaker 3: doubled our population between the two of us on this
- 25:50Speaker 3: planet ongoing? And is that a responsible thing to have done?
- 25:53Speaker 3: And where's this world going? Like, you know, we're only
- 25:56Speaker 3: doing what we can with the world. So maybe within
- 25:57Speaker 3: their own existence on that ship probably doesn't seem as hope,
- 26:01Speaker 3: Maybe not if it was purpose or if it was
- 26:03Speaker 3: an accident, but something that they were going to go,
- 26:05Speaker 3: we can make this happen, We can make this work.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Were considering that the plan was to travel back in time?
- 26:13Speaker 1: Was that was that the original Well it was just
- 26:16Speaker 1: escape from it, Yeah, try and find a way to
- 26:19Speaker 1: like convert.
- 26:20Speaker 4: So okay, if they had the kid, it would go
- 26:23Speaker 4: all the way to the end, explode and then reverse
- 26:25Speaker 4: and the kid wouldn't exist.
- 26:27Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, to be the way that kid was, we
- 26:30Speaker 3: can imagine, Well, was the what's the phasing thing? I
- 26:34Speaker 3: was a bit confused about the idea of what we
- 26:35Speaker 3: have to get out of the phase and mantle right,
- 26:38Speaker 3: So we have to just sort of switch so that
- 26:40Speaker 3: that beam doesn't affect us and then so it's going
- 26:43Speaker 3: to pass straight through us and then we can So
- 26:45Speaker 3: we're going to go into a different phase, turn the
- 26:47Speaker 3: time dilation field offs, it'll pass through us, and then
- 26:49Speaker 3: we can escape. And then we've still got to work
- 26:51Speaker 3: out what's going to happen beyond that. But like she said,
- 26:53Speaker 3: oh years ago, I worked out how to separate our
- 26:56Speaker 3: stuff from their stuff, the hyper drive from the Asgard stuff,
- 26:59Speaker 3: so that if we ever did escape, it would be
- 27:01Speaker 3: the last time we would have to jump away from them.
- 27:03Speaker 3: But Christ, do you imagine how much darker that ending
- 27:07Speaker 3: would have been if they had that kid and it's like,
- 27:12Speaker 3: we're going to have to reverse and you're not going
- 27:14Speaker 3: to ex or at that point does the kid, Like
- 27:17Speaker 3: you imagine that kid was an adult. They're fifty years
- 27:20Speaker 3: past when they got together. That kid's middle aged by
- 27:22Speaker 3: this point. The kid goes, I'll do it. Imagine pressed
- 27:28Speaker 3: a button and they reversed time and they go, who
- 27:30Speaker 3: are you?
- 27:31Speaker 1: It's like, you're not going to believe dude, that would
- 27:34Speaker 1: be cool. This is why the new thesis, This is
- 27:40Speaker 1: why I think like this episode should have been a
- 27:42Speaker 1: two parter, like we could, like we we've been shitting
- 27:45Speaker 1: on like the last kind of five episodes. Surely we
- 27:47Speaker 1: could have gotten rid of, you know, the Vali Dad
- 27:50Speaker 1: episode that Mitch's idea would have been, so that that's
- 27:54Speaker 1: what I mean. We could have spent more time with
- 27:57Speaker 1: the Asgard Goodbye, because I don't I don't mind the
- 28:01Speaker 1: as Guard doing what they did, like making that sacrifice
- 28:04Speaker 1: for us to then take over as the fifth race.
- 28:06Speaker 1: I'm not sure the kno's got a vote on that,
- 28:08Speaker 1: who knows.
- 28:08Speaker 4: But with the second coming of the Asgard of the
- 28:12Speaker 4: of the.
- 28:12Speaker 1: Ancient, well yeah, that's that's true but racist, but it's
- 28:19Speaker 1: I would have loved to spend more time on that,
- 28:21Speaker 1: like because obviously, like the planet blows up and then
- 28:24Speaker 1: we have no time to actually process that and mourn
- 28:27Speaker 1: that and and give that like the pomp and circumstance
- 28:30Speaker 1: it requires, like as a TV show, so I would
- 28:32Speaker 1: have loved to, like have more time to explore that,
- 28:36Speaker 1: and then, yeah, I love Mitch's idea. Imagine if we
- 28:38Speaker 1: had time to explore the fact that Varla and Daniel
- 28:40Speaker 1: had a kid that grew up and then had to
- 28:42Speaker 1: try and figure out that, and then suddenly that's a
- 28:44Speaker 1: way to like retcon a new character into this show
- 28:47Speaker 1: in the final episode. And then just.
- 28:52Speaker 3: Like you say, you wanted to be too, but I
- 28:53Speaker 3: would love more of this episode. But at the same time,
- 28:56Speaker 3: and I guess it's a credit to Robert C. Cooper.
- 28:58Speaker 3: I didn't feel like this episode was underdone. It didn't
- 29:02Speaker 3: feel rushed to me, and I was worried that, yeah,
- 29:07Speaker 3: that part was I sorry, I guess I mean the
- 29:09Speaker 3: thing that I remembered about this episode, which was just
- 29:12Speaker 3: the time dilation stuff, because as I pressed play and
- 29:15Speaker 3: I'm watching, I'm like, I don't remember the ass Guard
- 29:17Speaker 3: part of this again, if I put aside the synopsis
- 29:20Speaker 3: and how long that took before they got to the
- 29:22Speaker 3: time dilation stuff, and I thought, how much time were
- 29:25Speaker 3: leaving to get an emotional gut punch out of this,
- 29:27Speaker 3: Like if they're only actually stuck in this thing for
- 29:29Speaker 3: fifteen minutes of screen time. I'm not going to feel
- 29:32Speaker 3: like I remember feeling fifteen years ago. I did, but
- 29:36Speaker 3: I've been a.
- 29:36Speaker 1: Good second part.
- 29:37Speaker 4: I think if the first, if the first episode was
- 29:39Speaker 4: about them talking to the ass Guard, collecting and kind
- 29:43Speaker 4: of telling an audience who may not have seen the
- 29:46Speaker 4: earlier seasons that this is the as Guard, this is
- 29:49Speaker 4: the last of their knowledge and when they're giving it
- 29:52Speaker 4: to us, which is a great honor and also we
- 29:54Speaker 4: need to protect it. Even by the second episode, which
- 29:58Speaker 4: we've already got, is just that a bit more high
- 30:01Speaker 4: state could have.
- 30:01Speaker 1: Given this room to get O'Neil in there, potentially got
- 30:04Speaker 1: some kind of resolution to the Knox because they still
- 30:08Speaker 1: exist out there. We haven't seen them since like season three,
- 30:11Speaker 1: and they're a member of the of the four Great Races,
- 30:14Speaker 1: you know we I mean, they could have even gotten
- 30:17Speaker 1: fun and brought the Furlings in for this last episode
- 30:19Speaker 1: or something, you know what I mean. There's so many
- 30:21Speaker 1: things we could have done so they can just honor
- 30:25Speaker 1: the as Guard. But again, I think the problem is Cooper, Uh,
- 30:31Speaker 1: that was cold.
- 30:32Speaker 3: We've got that on record now. That's brilliant, Thank you, Maddie.
- 30:34Speaker 8: Mad Obviously a huge huge part of this episode was
- 30:40Speaker 8: was the decision to to kill the as Guard.
- 30:43Speaker 6: I mean, this this resonated in a big way with
- 30:45Speaker 6: with fans. You know, why why would we do that?
- 30:48Speaker 1: Why?
- 30:49Speaker 4: Why?
- 30:50Speaker 8: It's hard to believe that people have that much of
- 30:55Speaker 8: an emotional attachment to this rubber puppet. So wonderful, but
- 31:01Speaker 8: I mean, I mean, isn't it hard? I mean you've
- 31:04Speaker 8: had several scenes, yeah, I mean twice on camera.
- 31:11Speaker 6: Isn't it amazing?
- 31:12Speaker 8: How how he's a character, he's a real lady, the
- 31:15Speaker 8: Asgard or a living breathing you know, race of people, and.
- 31:18Speaker 6: And uh so, why why why would we kill them?
- 31:22Speaker 8: Well, to be honest with you, uh, I think we
- 31:25Speaker 8: wanted we wanted this episode to to to have an
- 31:29Speaker 8: element of tragedy in it that would reflect how I
- 31:32Speaker 8: think we were all feeling.
- 31:34Speaker 6: And you know, some people might say, well, isn't it
- 31:37Speaker 6: enough that the show is ending. We're all sad about that,
- 31:40Speaker 6: and why kill the ascar too much? I think, you know,
- 31:46Speaker 6: to us, it was important that that there be.
- 31:51Speaker 8: Something of tremendous resonance, that that that got the episode started,
- 31:56Speaker 8: something that would make the characters, you know, feel the
- 32:00Speaker 8: weight of.
- 32:02Speaker 6: What this episode was going to mean.
- 32:03Speaker 8: I mean, ultimately, you there's a tremendous amount of obviously
- 32:07Speaker 8: pressure to want to make it special, to want to
- 32:12Speaker 8: make it everything.
- 32:13Speaker 6: That you think obviously fans are going to expect out
- 32:15Speaker 6: of the.
- 32:16Speaker 8: Last episode, and ultimately, no script, no forty five minutes
- 32:21Speaker 8: of television could ever do justice to what we were
- 32:25Speaker 8: all feeling. And I think what fans are feeling, you know,
- 32:29Speaker 8: having ten seasons come to an end.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Shut up, Cooper. I think it just smacks of not
- 32:37Speaker 1: understanding your audience if you think we're not going to
- 32:39Speaker 1: be if you reduce the Asgard down to a rubber puppet,
- 32:44Speaker 1: like no, ridiculous. You're writing a sci fi show for
- 32:47Speaker 1: the last ten years.
- 32:48Speaker 4: But bro to fall in love with the characters that
- 32:50Speaker 4: you're right, yeah.
- 32:50Speaker 1: And then later on he like he big notes himself,
- 32:53Speaker 1: I can play the one. But he's like, he's like, well,
- 32:55Speaker 1: you know, several years ago I wrote an episode called
- 32:57Speaker 1: the Fifth Race and blah blah blah blah, and it's
- 32:59Speaker 1: just like, you can't have it both ways. You can't
- 33:02Speaker 1: talk about how how important the Fifth Race was as
- 33:05Speaker 1: an episode and then five minutes early be talking about
- 33:08Speaker 1: why why you're confused that the fantom is connected to
- 33:11Speaker 1: quote a rubber puppet like it just smacks of not
- 33:15Speaker 1: knowing your audience. Yeah, I think I think the big
- 33:18Speaker 1: mistake from this show, from the last few seasons is
- 33:21Speaker 1: Brad right stepping away. I think he was. He was
- 33:25Speaker 1: the one that kept the ship on course. And I
- 33:29Speaker 1: think as he's been and he's totally within his right
- 33:32Speaker 1: to kind of step away and start working on different
- 33:34Speaker 1: projects and stuff like that, But I just think.
- 33:38Speaker 7: He was.
- 33:39Speaker 1: He was the north star that we needed to sort of,
- 33:42Speaker 1: you know, keep things going, and I think without him
- 33:43Speaker 1: here it was a detriment to the show.
- 33:46Speaker 4: Hey guys, So I've been trying for five seasons to
- 33:50Speaker 4: crack the code for the last Walter diary WHOA, and.
- 33:55Speaker 1: I couldn't do it.
- 33:56Speaker 4: COVID screwed me over a little bit. The thing is
- 33:59Speaker 4: that this diary is highly encrypted, so I bought a
- 34:03Speaker 4: code hacker from Express. It does work, but it's a
- 34:10Speaker 4: little bit strange. The paper on this one is different
- 34:12Speaker 4: to the other diaries. It's kind of sparkly and shiny.
- 34:16Speaker 4: So anyway, here we go.
- 34:18Speaker 1: Is that stripper glitter It could be that's a double
- 34:22Speaker 1: as well, so as we open the diary. Oh yeah,
- 34:30Speaker 1: oh that's that's that's some heavy.
- 34:33Speaker 4: Fifth and last, fifth and last, Mitch, is that a
- 34:36Speaker 4: sports reference?
- 34:37Speaker 1: Yeah? Is that a sports reference?
- 34:43Speaker 6: Your references are out of control. Everyone knows that.
- 34:46Speaker 1: Wow, pops and pans, Mitchell, well done. Oh shit, that's good.
- 34:52Speaker 3: All right.
- 34:52Speaker 4: This one's titled The Walter Diaries, Part five, Unending Responsibilities,
- 35:00Speaker 4: Gate Technicians, Personal log Stargate S ten dot two zero.
- 35:05Speaker 1: That's one. I'm on the evening shift again.
- 35:09Speaker 7: Now.
- 35:09Speaker 4: I know what you might be thinking, that I've spiraled
- 35:11Speaker 4: into another power trip, drunk off the power of the
- 35:15Speaker 4: iris back to raise the blades and mirrors in the street.
- 35:20Speaker 4: But no, I haven't fallen out of favor with command.
- 35:23Speaker 4: I've volunteered. I'm here with Chet the Trainee Gate Technician.
- 35:27Speaker 4: Oh chet Manly, what is that name anyway?
- 35:34Speaker 7: Bro?
- 35:35Speaker 1: It is a dude.
- 35:35Speaker 4: Bro.
- 35:36Speaker 1: Yeah, that screams you're part of a fraternity.
- 35:40Speaker 3: Chat.
- 35:41Speaker 1: Yeah, you're part of your legacy legacy. The Air Force
- 35:43Speaker 1: have a UNI college. Oh yeah u AF Okay, now
- 35:50Speaker 1: that's just an abbreviation for what they are.
- 35:52Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the United States Air Force. Check the Trainee
- 35:56Speaker 4: gate Technician plus working back gets me out of pouring
- 36:00Speaker 4: drinks for the Admiral's poker buddies or calling his bingo
- 36:03Speaker 4: games and Wednesday nights. Does the Air Force admirals I
- 36:07Speaker 4: don't know. Soon see do they have generals?
- 36:09Speaker 9: They do?
- 36:10Speaker 4: Now I'm showing Chet the nighttime protocols, or as General
- 36:14Speaker 4: Hammond and I used to call it, wildfire lockdown party.
- 36:18Speaker 4: Chet's busy with Latrine Dudy so a so to speak,
- 36:22Speaker 4: or as we as the gate technicians like to say,
- 36:24Speaker 4: he's off taking a Lidsan and Grogan. Not only have
- 36:28Speaker 4: I clawed my way back to head gate technician as promised,
- 36:31Speaker 4: but through my trials and tribs, I've been honored with
- 36:34Speaker 4: the following Air Force Commendation Medal, Outstanding Unit Award, represent
- 36:40Speaker 4: Tech nine, Air Force Medal Achievement, Home World Defense Service Medal,
- 36:45Speaker 4: off World Short Tour Service Ribbon, and many more. But
- 36:51Speaker 4: most recently I've received the Air Force nco p ME
- 36:55Speaker 4: Graduate Ribbon.
- 36:56Speaker 1: That's a lot of letters. It is thank you.
- 36:59Speaker 4: That means the United States Air Force Please, I'm leadership material.
- 37:03Speaker 4: That's a double write that down meaning it's a homonym,
- 37:08Speaker 4: meaning both the material of the ribbon and the substance
- 37:10Speaker 4: of my character, that this is all.
- 37:12Speaker 1: In here.
- 37:15Speaker 4: Alone again in the control room, no Chevron's lit darkness
- 37:19Speaker 4: and a hush fall across.
- 37:20Speaker 1: The gate room. Oh he's getting poetic now.
- 37:22Speaker 4: But I peer out to see my ancient Stone friend
- 37:26Speaker 4: in the shadows, a dormant volcano ready to blow at
- 37:30Speaker 4: any second, like General Hammond during a self destruct, A
- 37:34Speaker 4: pretty boy cumface when Colonel Carter wheels in the giant
- 37:37Speaker 4: black light.
- 37:39Speaker 1: I wrote a poem.
- 37:41Speaker 4: It goes like this, Built by ancients long ago, the
- 37:45Speaker 4: stargate lay till Danny broke the code. Now it takes
- 37:48Speaker 4: us through the universe on our mission to gate back
- 37:51Speaker 4: to Earth. We are hunted and on the run, but
- 37:56Speaker 4: together we overcome fighting evil through the gap Lexy Stargate
- 38:02Speaker 4: SG one.
- 38:04Speaker 1: I thought he'd be a haikuman, but he he put
- 38:06Speaker 1: the ethord in there. That's that's impressive.
- 38:10Speaker 4: That's the Stargate Infinity opener.
- 38:24Speaker 1: Have the backing music for that one. So what was
- 38:28Speaker 1: is it? We're saying that that the Walter Harriman was
- 38:31Speaker 1: actually the ghost rider for Stargating Infinity. He's to blame.
- 38:36Speaker 3: It's an in world.
- 38:39Speaker 1: It's like the spinoff of Wormhole extremes. Yeah, He's like, well,
- 38:43Speaker 1: I'm not going to be in it. I'll draw cartoons
- 38:44Speaker 1: or can be in it. General Landry and SG one
- 38:48Speaker 1: are missing.
- 38:49Speaker 4: Reports from p three x four seven four say they
- 38:52Speaker 4: went rogue accepting an invitation from the Asgard Suicide Squad.
- 38:57Speaker 4: I'm now glad I never received an invite. They were
- 39:01Speaker 4: last scene aboard the Odyssey, tracked by Auro motherships, missing
- 39:05Speaker 4: in action, but unofficially presumed dead their own arrogant fault.
- 39:10Speaker 4: That was months ago. Hard to believe that I may
- 39:14Speaker 4: have lost three of the great generals I've worked with
- 39:16Speaker 4: in this command. Word to General Hammond rip the og original.
- 39:21Speaker 1: General and General we Air obviously was great.
- 39:27Speaker 4: Speaking of generals, Jack O'Neil was beside himself over the
- 39:30Speaker 4: loss of SG one. He was here at Stargate Command.
- 39:34Speaker 4: I bumped into him in the hallway. I immediately apologized,
- 39:38Speaker 4: and he continued past, clearly deep.
- 39:40Speaker 1: In thought, aks like he knows him a lot, and then.
- 39:45Speaker 4: He bumps into him. He apologizes and he goes best
- 39:48Speaker 4: we can do, sorry, sir.
- 39:52Speaker 1: And I'm still stuck back on as Gods Suicide Squad
- 39:56Speaker 1: because now in my brain I'm just picturing the suicide
- 39:58Speaker 1: Squad movie remade with Asgard Poppet. Yeah, that's all I.
- 40:01Speaker 4: Can see in my head right now. O'Neil was furious,
- 40:04Speaker 4: and why wouldn't he be. He commandeered the Daedalust and
- 40:07Speaker 4: hasn't been seen since. The new president has instated Richard
- 40:11Speaker 4: Woolsey of the I Away is the new leader of
- 40:13Speaker 4: the sgc OH.
- 40:15Speaker 1: Putting Woolsey in charge of anything in the Stargate program
- 40:17Speaker 1: is a massive mistake. Exactly, who would ever do that?
- 40:22Speaker 4: He's an old man. Bro's like an a prior as
- 40:24Speaker 4: some ship, but not the worst command of this facility's
- 40:28Speaker 4: ever had. That's doctor Elizabeth. We come on now, last bit.
- 40:35Speaker 1: I was gonna say, because Walter is a weird fan.
- 40:38Speaker 1: We know Walter is a weird fan. He and Chuck
- 40:42Speaker 1: write fanfic about her through the wormhole.
- 40:43Speaker 3: He appreciates authoritative women.
- 40:45Speaker 1: Exactly, Elizabeth John disrespect good.
- 40:57Speaker 4: Richard Woolsey is anal. He made me re submit my
- 41:00Speaker 4: parking spot application in triplicate, using an N one and
- 41:04Speaker 4: form instead of an I thirty seven, so you can
- 41:06Speaker 4: understand my frustration.
- 41:08Speaker 1: It feels like the kind of guy who'd also be like, no,
- 41:10Speaker 1: you use blue pen I need to use black pen. Yeah, exactly. Yeah,
- 41:13Speaker 1: why did you use this number two? Yeah?
- 41:16Speaker 4: Little does he know that he's going to be swimming
- 41:19Speaker 4: in G seventy two? Well, I have no idea what
- 41:22Speaker 4: that means.
- 41:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, is that a form? Is that a weapon?
- 41:25Speaker 1: We know exactly.
- 41:27Speaker 4: I now understand why the Pegasus Expedition gave Woolsey a nickname.
- 41:31Speaker 4: The man who travels through the veins and bowels of
- 41:33Speaker 4: the universe for executive performance audits, they nicknamed him Woolsey
- 41:38Speaker 4: the Milky Way dick vein.
- 41:42Speaker 1: Is that like the Snicker's vein? Is that what that's Yeah,
- 41:47Speaker 1: he's with his audit reports oozing down over his desk. Oh,
- 41:52Speaker 1: this is giddy graphic.
- 41:54Speaker 4: There was light at the end of the parking tunnel
- 41:56Speaker 4: a while back. General the Hawk Talk Talk Tunnel. General
- 42:00Speaker 4: Landry knew I had an application for a reserved parking spot.
- 42:05Speaker 4: A minor mishap off World left the parking spot next
- 42:09Speaker 4: to the general vacant, but Landry had a traffic ballard
- 42:12Speaker 4: installed so no one could park next to him in
- 42:14Speaker 4: case someone scratched his car. I mean, which is fair,
- 42:17Speaker 4: I mean makes sense if you think about it.
- 42:19Speaker 1: What kind of Cardier reckon that General Andry would drive.
- 42:22Speaker 4: Is he gonna have an old classic or I think
- 42:24Speaker 4: he would have like a modern like a like a
- 42:28Speaker 4: Chrysler or something like that.
- 42:30Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like one of those big what the three
- 42:32Speaker 1: fifty z's or whatever that. Yeah, yeah, I can see him.
- 42:34Speaker 1: No one parks next to me on so what he
- 42:39Speaker 1: might be dead. Screw that guy.
- 42:40Speaker 4: Bro didn't thank me for fixing the gate so he
- 42:43Speaker 4: could go through in his two hundred wormhole about Also,
- 42:47Speaker 4: there was talk of cake, and I never received a piece.
- 42:51Speaker 1: I parked. We're nearly done. I parked it.
- 42:56Speaker 4: I've parked in tilk spot once, but I think Chet
- 42:58Speaker 4: told him about it, because every more morning after that,
- 43:00Speaker 4: Tilk was standing in the parking spot, right on top
- 43:03Speaker 4: of the sprayed paint first prime apofice, arms behind his back,
- 43:08Speaker 4: just watching me drive past. And Tims did him have
- 43:10Speaker 4: a car?
- 43:11Speaker 1: That's right?
- 43:12Speaker 4: I made sure never to make eye contact obviously. Yeah,
- 43:15Speaker 4: I mean the guy doesn't own a car. I'm not
- 43:17Speaker 4: even sure he has a license. Bullshit, your wipe. He's
- 43:21Speaker 4: not allowed off off base enough to need a car
- 43:24Speaker 4: exactly except when he drives to Escalade when he's about
- 43:26Speaker 4: to do some shady black op.
- 43:28Speaker 1: Ship, but he's with his beanie yeah or berry some dude.
- 43:31Speaker 1: What I'd love is for Tilk to have had like
- 43:33Speaker 1: you know how he always wears that black beanie to
- 43:34Speaker 1: cover his tattoo. I'd love for him to wear a
- 43:37Speaker 1: black beanie that then has yeah right, because they have them,
- 43:42Speaker 1: don't they surely? Hell yeah you r.
- 43:45Speaker 4: I wiped out TECH nine, my infamous gangster rap group.
- 43:50Speaker 4: Amy Schumer was shot down but went out. Oh now
- 43:53Speaker 4: there's the win out of everything here. Amy Schumer went down,
- 43:57Speaker 4: was shot down, but went out swinging by clutching on
- 43:59Speaker 4: Tilk's AS twelve. I feel a bit silly beef with
- 44:03Speaker 4: SG one now that you know they're dead. The burden
- 44:07Speaker 4: never leaves us. But I haven't given up hope yet
- 44:10Speaker 4: on SG one or my parking spot. I think I
- 44:13Speaker 4: hear check coming back. So this is me signing out.
- 44:16Speaker 4: And remember it does say technician on my uniform for
- 44:20Speaker 4: I'm Walter. I am the one who locks.
- 44:25Speaker 1: Wow.
- 44:27Speaker 4: Signed Chief Master Sergeant Norman Walter Davis Harriman the third PS.
- 44:32Speaker 4: It's raining peace to all and hallowed are the your
- 44:35Speaker 4: eye WHOA.
- 44:38Speaker 3: Thank you.
- 44:39Speaker 1: See now there was the missed opportunity making daniela pride.
- 44:42Speaker 1: They should have made Walter shit. That would have been
- 44:46Speaker 1: some seriousness.
- 44:47Speaker 3: As you least expect, and I imagine.
- 44:48Speaker 4: That so there was some easter eggsit there the Mitch,
- 44:50Speaker 4: So that was actually an alternate reality Walter.
- 44:55Speaker 1: S g One didn't make it.
- 44:58Speaker 3: During Unending, and that was thing I probably didn't give
- 45:01Speaker 3: a lot of thought about. Like during this episode, there
- 45:04Speaker 3: was enough sort of like scene to scene that I
- 45:06Speaker 3: didn't stop and going on, what what would have been happening? Like,
- 45:09Speaker 3: you know, had they I mean it's different. Time dilation
- 45:13Speaker 3: makes things a little bit skewish when you ask those questions,
- 45:16Speaker 3: But yeah, what what have what? What would that future
- 45:18Speaker 3: have have become?
- 45:20Speaker 4: Well, if you think about it, s g One wouldn't
- 45:22Speaker 4: have been able to shoot any of the ORIR ships
- 45:26Speaker 4: because they would have no Asgard technology. So the outs
- 45:30Speaker 4: Guard would get a major foothold in the in the
- 45:32Speaker 4: Milky Way and pretty much be able to take over
- 45:34Speaker 4: the entire galaxy. And that's what my that backstory and
- 45:39Speaker 4: that Walter Diaries for me, is that the ore I
- 45:43Speaker 4: have taken over. O'Neill's not happy with it. They turned
- 45:47Speaker 4: Walter into a Prior and you know, they turned Woolsey
- 45:50Speaker 4: into a prior Jack style the Daedalus and interesting because
- 45:58Speaker 4: what what would happen? That's what Hmmm, Yeah, I guess
- 46:02Speaker 4: because heaps of people would be dead.
- 46:05Speaker 1: I guess it's not confirmed until you know Arc of Truth.
- 46:09Speaker 1: But obviously we find out in Dominion that you know,
- 46:14Speaker 1: Adria confirms, well, Ball confirms that the Ari are dead,
- 46:20Speaker 1: but their followers are not. So yeah, you know they
- 46:23Speaker 1: still have all those So the Priors have their powers.
- 46:27Speaker 1: That's a good question, I would I would say yes,
- 46:30Speaker 1: given that Aduria is still around and there is a
- 46:32Speaker 1: little bit of confirmation on that, you know, she and
- 46:34Speaker 1: it's got to do with the staff too, right, Yeah,
- 46:37Speaker 1: and obviously that power is bestowed to them.
- 46:40Speaker 3: Is it like a little affordable Wi Fi router the stuff?
- 46:43Speaker 3: Like they've got powers in themselves, but it emits from
- 46:46Speaker 3: I mean, you.
- 46:47Speaker 1: Wait to the Arc of Truth, mate, you know, sure,
- 46:49Speaker 1: it's a very important, important aspect. I've got to think
- 46:53Speaker 1: on the right the right Wavelane.
- 46:55Speaker 3: Yeah. So I think like there's been a you know,
- 46:59Speaker 3: a few moments in episodes, especially as we build up
- 47:04Speaker 3: towards the end, and we covered it in dominion about
- 47:06Speaker 3: like just oh, stuff happening in the background. Oh that, yeah,
- 47:08Speaker 3: now I don't worry. Yeah that happened. It's like, what
- 47:10Speaker 3: that seems like it should have been a lot bigger,
- 47:12Speaker 3: And even in this with the fact that I didn't
- 47:14Speaker 3: remember it being anything about the asgard or about their technology,
- 47:17Speaker 3: and you know, Okay, they're dying, and I'm like, I
- 47:19Speaker 3: think I have a memory of like, you know, they've
- 47:21Speaker 3: been building towards that anyway, Like they've been saying, you know,
- 47:24Speaker 3: we're a dying race. We haven't been able to you know,
- 47:26Speaker 3: reproduce and all that sort of stuff, and like that
- 47:28Speaker 3: line in this where they go, oh, they've re engineered
- 47:32Speaker 3: and you know and copied and cloned themselves to within
- 47:35Speaker 3: the point where they actually can't ascend because they're not
- 47:38Speaker 3: their natural cells anymore. Like then they're not real they can't,
- 47:42Speaker 3: they can't.
- 47:43Speaker 1: They're even gonna have issues where they can't like download
- 47:45Speaker 1: themselves into fresh bodies anymore.
- 47:47Speaker 3: Like they're just they're so done and yeah like yeah, okay,
- 47:50Speaker 3: we're just we're pulling the plug before we lose all
- 47:52Speaker 3: over our marble sort of thing. But then they start
- 47:55Speaker 3: getting attacked by like Okay, so that plant. I'm gonna
- 47:58Speaker 3: pretend like I don't remember anything, don't nothing, I'm just
- 48:01Speaker 3: coming in and I'm just I know bits and piece
- 48:03Speaker 3: of this episode. That planet is the you as Guard planet.
- 48:08Speaker 3: Oh that's Marilla.
- 48:09Speaker 1: That's really we saw that a couple of seasons ago,
- 48:11Speaker 1: remember with the Replicators invaded it with Fifth and all
- 48:14Speaker 1: that kind of st Yeah. So, and that's another thing too,
- 48:16Speaker 1: that's the one I know Neil went to in Fifth Race. Yes, okay, yeah,
- 48:20Speaker 1: a reala in the galaxy Othala. Yeah, which is weird
- 48:25Speaker 1: because that also means that the a I are outside
- 48:28Speaker 1: of the Milky Way and they're in a different galaxy
- 48:30Speaker 1: chasing us down as well. Sorry, continue with your point.
- 48:32Speaker 4: Yeah, actually that Yeah, that's interesting. I don't think Cooper
- 48:38Speaker 4: thought about that, but because why wouldn't he be after
- 48:41Speaker 4: the as Guard.
- 48:42Speaker 1: Why wouldn't they be after the as Guard before this day? Yeah,
- 48:45Speaker 1: And like like you said, the problem they made with
- 48:47Speaker 1: season nine and ten is they made Ascension location specific.
- 48:52Speaker 1: You know, so you know, if if the Ancients are
- 48:56Speaker 1: letting the or I do whatever the one in their
- 48:58Speaker 1: home galaxy and not really stop think I'm doing anything
- 49:00Speaker 1: in the Milkyway Galaxy. What about the Oarthala galaxy or Pegasus.
- 49:04Speaker 4: Or anything like that, and that kind of that could
- 49:05Speaker 4: have been the better kind of first episode of this
- 49:08Speaker 4: finale is if the Asgard are getting overrun and then
- 49:13Speaker 4: they decided to do to give us the technology and
- 49:16Speaker 4: then the area destroy them. Yeah, instead of this. The
- 49:18Speaker 4: suicide thing is just odd.
- 49:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of get it, like, you know, they
- 49:24Speaker 1: want to they wanted to end it on their own
- 49:26Speaker 1: terms before they became a problem or an issue or
- 49:30Speaker 1: or a danger. But also, like I said, why didn't
- 49:35Speaker 1: they reach out their friends, the Knox or yeah, anything
- 49:38Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, the Knocks can heal, yeah, yeah, like
- 49:44Speaker 1: and you know that's part of the as far as
- 49:46Speaker 1: we know, it's the only member of the four Great
- 49:47Speaker 1: Races leftus aside from the as Guard is the Knox. Yeah.
- 49:51Speaker 1: So it's weird that we never actually see the Knox
- 49:53Speaker 1: and the as Guard in a scene together. Yeah, which
- 49:57Speaker 1: is weird. But sorry, Mitchell, we we.
- 50:00Speaker 2: I know.
- 50:00Speaker 3: It's just no, no, no, it was like again, I
- 50:03Speaker 3: just think it's working off last week with the with
- 50:05Speaker 3: the Adura stuff and and just and I actually rewatched
- 50:09Speaker 3: that to go into unending and just watching that ending again,
- 50:13Speaker 3: going how much we don't even It's not even like
- 50:15Speaker 3: we don't see it as the series or as a
- 50:17Speaker 3: season goes on. We just get told stuff after. But
- 50:19Speaker 3: even the end of that episode, we don't even see
- 50:22Speaker 3: what happens to her, like we just sort of see
- 50:24Speaker 3: someone's reaction to it. So this is all very very strange.
- 50:28Speaker 3: And then for them to still get to the end
- 50:29Speaker 3: of the episode, yeah it might be, this might be that. No, no, no, no,
- 50:32Speaker 3: And I'm like, we'll got two episodes left, like, surely
- 50:34Speaker 3: you know a little bit about again if they know
- 50:36Speaker 3: that these movies are coming, and even if the public
- 50:38Speaker 3: didn't know, whatever, Okay, we can pick it up later.
- 50:40Speaker 3: But then this one, as god, planet blows up and
- 50:42Speaker 3: they go and when they start getting attacked and oh,
- 50:44Speaker 3: we're gonna we're gonna bounce, and Thor just disappears and
- 50:47Speaker 3: all the our's gotta go on, and then they just
- 50:49Speaker 3: like in my head, I don't know why, I was
- 50:51Speaker 3: like the fact that the planet was blowing up, I'm like, oh,
- 50:53Speaker 3: that's that's a shame, because it was a meat Like
- 50:56Speaker 3: in my head, I probably didn't even hear like the
- 50:58Speaker 3: name of the planets. It's like we've just picked a
- 51:00Speaker 3: meeting place, come meet here. They've beamed in from another ship,
- 51:05Speaker 3: and so when they beamed out, they've went off to
- 51:06Speaker 3: another ship to just high tail it out there. They
- 51:08Speaker 3: don't have the firepower to take it on the Ori,
- 51:11Speaker 3: they don't have the strength physically to be whatever it
- 51:15Speaker 3: might be. And also they can't risk that they're going
- 51:17Speaker 3: to die because they're there to do what they were
- 51:19Speaker 3: doing with SG one. They need to preserve everything. We
- 51:21Speaker 3: can't even risk being here to help you survive this battle.
- 51:24Speaker 3: So we're just going to beam out to our other ship.
- 51:25Speaker 3: We're going to go and then for whatever reason, the
- 51:28Speaker 3: OROI decided to blow up the planet as well. And
- 51:30Speaker 3: then it's just like yeah, okay, so they're done done.
- 51:35Speaker 3: That's that's yeah, that's so.
- 51:37Speaker 1: It is weird when you think about it, the fact
- 51:39Speaker 1: that the as Guard can retrofit as Guard beam weapons
- 51:45Speaker 1: onto the Odyssey that can take out and we just
- 51:50Speaker 1: have the one ship in our galaxy. That thing within
- 51:53Speaker 1: about ten minutes takes out what like three Ari vessels.
- 51:58Speaker 1: Where's the Asgard fleet? You know what I mean? We
- 52:02Speaker 1: had a bunch of those ships before you kill yourselves.
- 52:05Speaker 1: Can you just like do like sweep the galaxy?
- 52:07Speaker 3: Yeah, you can do a long range scan. You know
- 52:10Speaker 3: where these pricks are.
- 52:11Speaker 1: Can you just park all your ships over there outside
- 52:13Speaker 1: the blast radius of your planet? Because totally like they
- 52:19Speaker 1: were kind of it's weird that they were kind of
- 52:20Speaker 1: almost useless against the au I fight at the start
- 52:24Speaker 1: of this season slash the end of last season, like
- 52:26Speaker 1: we saw a couple of as guardships get destroyed, but
- 52:29Speaker 1: then the Odyssey is able to take out multiple Ari
- 52:32Speaker 1: ships in this American Yeah, that's true, But just on
- 52:36Speaker 1: what you were saying, Mitchell. When Jacob and Ellen watched
- 52:40Speaker 1: un Ending and I spoke before about how, you know,
- 52:42Speaker 1: Ellen was a certain fan of certain things, they came
- 52:45Speaker 1: up with a really clever idea.
- 52:49Speaker 10: I was trying to work up a pun including maidies,
- 52:53Speaker 10: gators and maybe even meter because it's somewhere in the
- 52:56Speaker 10: middle you mad from cars. I just couldn't make it work,
- 52:58Speaker 10: So that's what we got. Anyway, I can't believe it's
- 53:01Speaker 10: already unending. I had some thoughts from when I showed
- 53:05Speaker 10: this to Ellen for the first time. She had something
- 53:09Speaker 10: to say which I had never thought of. But I
- 53:13Speaker 10: totally agreed with, and so she was quite disappointed with
- 53:18Speaker 10: this finale. I was to you know, I didn't even
- 53:21Speaker 10: know Arc of Truth and Continue More Continue More a
- 53:23Speaker 10: thing at this time when I watched it for the
- 53:26Speaker 10: first time. So I was super disappointed because I was like, really,
- 53:28Speaker 10: that's all. But she thought they should have swapped Unending
- 53:32Speaker 10: and Dominion and had Dominion be the finale. And I
- 53:36Speaker 10: heard that and I thought, yeah, you're totally right, Like,
- 53:42Speaker 10: how good of a cliffhanger for a series would it
- 53:45Speaker 10: be where it's like, you wrap up the storyline is
- 53:49Speaker 10: somewhat but there's more to be desired and the final
- 53:54Speaker 10: thing is Adria ascending. Wouldn't that she's so eager to
- 54:02Speaker 10: see the movie to wrap it up like that would
- 54:04Speaker 10: have been such a better finale than oh, look, we
- 54:08Speaker 10: had a little adventure that never actually happened.
- 54:12Speaker 8: Whoao.
- 54:15Speaker 1: I mean, it's not a bad like they always say,
- 54:19Speaker 1: you know, hindsight is always twenty twenty and whatever, fifty
- 54:21Speaker 1: to fifty. But I don't hate that idea. It's not bad.
- 54:26Speaker 1: I just don't like the minion that much, so I
- 54:29Speaker 1: don't think it's a Yeah. I mean, we obviously we reworked.
- 54:32Speaker 1: I mean in last like two weeks ago and sort
- 54:35Speaker 1: of came up with a slightly better version. I understand
- 54:38Speaker 1: what production was trying to, like have this, you know,
- 54:40Speaker 1: this adventure. They want to have this as this sort
- 54:42Speaker 1: of you know, this this final sort of of adventure.
- 54:46Speaker 1: But also, and I think some of the criticism of
- 54:48Speaker 1: this episode were, like back in the day, was it's
- 54:51Speaker 1: also a show called Stargate and ninety five percent of
- 54:55Speaker 1: the episode takes place on a spaceship, and the Stargate
- 54:59Speaker 1: is actually not a part of the episode at all.
- 55:01Speaker 1: The only time we see the Stargate is the fan
- 55:04Speaker 1: service scene at the end where they have their their
- 55:07Speaker 1: tearful Indeed moment.
- 55:08Speaker 3: I actually didn't even think about the Stargate.
- 55:10Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, they John pulled the ship out
- 55:13Speaker 1: of this, they can't pull.
- 55:14Speaker 3: The ship out of it.
- 55:17Speaker 1: And funnily enough, that's the final moment, the whole sort
- 55:20Speaker 1: of ending scene. You can't even really credit the best
- 55:24Speaker 1: part of it to Cooper.
- 55:28Speaker 8: Indeed, and of course the tribute to to Indeed, Yeah,
- 55:32Speaker 8: everybody gets to say Indeed at the end, she.
- 55:34Speaker 6: Cried, Yeah, we came up with that on the day.
- 55:37Speaker 6: It's the cast wonderful.
- 55:41Speaker 4: I asked you, it was the cast, so the cast
- 55:45Speaker 4: him yeah, yeah, like yeah, great actors came up, Yeah,
- 55:50Speaker 4: I guess.
- 55:51Speaker 3: I guess you guys, after being together for ten years
- 55:53Speaker 3: or you know, for three of you, do you know
- 55:55Speaker 3: really that's when you your characters had to come out
- 55:58Speaker 3: of you and really write on scenes. And I love that.
- 56:01Speaker 1: I love that, man, I really love that. It was
- 56:03Speaker 1: just no, it was yeah, yeah, And given that, what
- 56:06Speaker 1: was it you could fix my work two weeks ago
- 56:09Speaker 1: or three weeks or whatever. When I was playing the
- 56:10Speaker 1: stuff of Joe and Paul being Dick's talking about how
- 56:13Speaker 1: just you know, maybe they could just you know, read
- 56:16Speaker 1: the scene as written, you know maybe, And we got
- 56:19Speaker 1: those five lackluster episodes and probably one of the most
- 56:22Speaker 1: gut punching moments in this finale let alone the season,
- 56:26Speaker 1: is the entire team saying indeed and Tilk having the
- 56:30Speaker 1: realization He's like, do I say indeed? A lot? Like
- 56:33Speaker 1: that was a cast moment, and two out of five
- 56:36Speaker 1: of those people have ever been on the show for
- 56:38Speaker 1: a year and a half, like, like, to.
- 56:41Speaker 3: Be honest, it did that. It didn't move the needle
- 56:43Speaker 3: too much for me having them all say it, because
- 56:45Speaker 3: it felt like it was obvious in a way that that.
- 56:48Speaker 3: But where Carter says, whatever she said to Til for
- 56:53Speaker 3: him to then it must kill you to not tell us,
- 56:56Speaker 3: and he's like, indeed, because it's not just oh, there's
- 56:59Speaker 3: his moment to say that when he hasn't said it
- 57:01Speaker 3: in this episode, or hasn't said it in a couple
- 57:03Speaker 3: of episodes, or what it might be. That's his word,
- 57:05Speaker 3: But why he would say that, what it means for
- 57:09Speaker 3: him because of what we know he sacrificed and all
- 57:11Speaker 3: that that that gave me the gut punch, And that
- 57:15Speaker 3: was the goosebump moment between the I don't hate that
- 57:18Speaker 3: they did it, and if anything, I love that they
- 57:20Speaker 3: did it because then in retrospect, Cooper can be pissed
- 57:23Speaker 3: that they did it because he didn't write it, and
- 57:25Speaker 3: everyone loves it.
- 57:26Speaker 1: If I recommend everyone go back and watch rewatch that
- 57:29Speaker 1: scene again because if you look very very close, and
- 57:31Speaker 1: if you listen very closely, you can hear Christopher Judge's
- 57:34Speaker 1: voice cracking where he says indeed, because he was a mess. Yeah,
- 57:39Speaker 1: he was one of the shots with like the classic
- 57:42Speaker 1: sort of raking shot of the team. The reason Tilk
- 57:45Speaker 1: was at the far back is because he couldn't get
- 57:47Speaker 1: his shit together. He was emotionally just a mess. He
- 57:50Speaker 1: was crying was he was Jennifer Aniston on the Friends finale,
- 57:54Speaker 1: Like just the slightest thing would have him crying that
- 57:58Speaker 1: in nine to eleven anything. And then also they we
- 58:04Speaker 1: spoke about this back in that weird Carter episode where
- 58:07Speaker 1: she went to the Alternate Reality thing and stuff like that,
- 58:09Speaker 1: where she shot that scene with Rodney or whatever in
- 58:12Speaker 1: the morning, like the goodbye scene, and then came and
- 58:15Speaker 1: shot this in the back half of the day. All
- 58:17Speaker 1: this stuff. That final shot of them walking up the
- 58:21Speaker 1: ramp was the final thing shot and it was shot
- 58:23Speaker 1: at one am when they went actually wrapped everything up.
- 58:27Speaker 1: But yeah, all that stuff in the gate scene was
- 58:28Speaker 1: kind of the final thing actually shot. So it's weird
- 58:31Speaker 1: to think that Carter, like Amanda Tapping, would have shot
- 58:33Speaker 1: most of unending then went and did some pickups with
- 58:36Speaker 1: Rodney for that that weird Alternate Reality episode, had lunch,
- 58:40Speaker 1: and then spent the rest of the day having an
- 58:43Speaker 1: absolute cry fest doing this final scene in the gate room.
- 58:46Speaker 3: And it was nice for to you know, like with
- 58:49Speaker 3: with Walter doing the full seven chevrons. He got everything,
- 58:55Speaker 3: were ready, okay, go for chevron one sort of thing,
- 58:58Speaker 3: and it took. It was the longest dial up sequence of.
- 59:00Speaker 1: All time, which does tie you into what you were
- 59:02Speaker 1: saying before. I wonder if we worked out the math,
- 59:05Speaker 1: like by the time you take out all the Asguard
- 59:06Speaker 1: stuff at the start and all that stuff at the end. Yeah,
- 59:09Speaker 1: how long did they actually spend in the time dilation bubble? Yeah,
- 59:13Speaker 1: of the forty minutes, but it still felt long enough. Yeah,
- 59:16Speaker 1: it didn't feel.
- 59:17Speaker 3: And you could have you know, if I didn't see it,
- 59:20Speaker 3: you could have told me that they made an hour
- 59:22Speaker 3: long special. It wasn't forty minutes and sixty minutes, and
- 59:24Speaker 3: I would have believed you because it felt like, Okay,
- 59:28Speaker 3: the as Gud stuff, we can just for what they mean.
- 59:31Speaker 3: I think if they were Alien X, you know, shove
- 59:34Speaker 3: anyone else in their side characters that we don't care about,
- 59:37Speaker 3: it would have been fine. It's just what it meant
- 59:39Speaker 3: to what that character and that race meant to this
- 59:42Speaker 3: entire show's run. But as far as it being about
- 59:45Speaker 3: our characters alone, if we selfishly take the as Guard
- 59:48Speaker 3: out of it, I think it was it was pretty
- 59:49Speaker 3: well balanced, which is a special thing, especially for me
- 59:53Speaker 3: having not watched it in like fifteen years. And then
- 59:56Speaker 3: you know, I was watching as a fan, and then
- 59:57Speaker 3: we've decided for the last you know, eight years to
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: make a podcast out of it and talk about what
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: we love about this show. So I mean, I didn't
- 1:00:04Speaker 3: ever worry, but maybe that was out of being naive,
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: but it would have been a shame to have gotten
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: to this point, watched this episode and go ah, oh,
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: it's not as great as I remember, you know, and
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: then that be my lasting memory because then I don't
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: want to rush back into into watching it yet. My
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: youngest boy, seven years old, he walks in halfway through
- 1:00:22Speaker 3: and he's looking at the frozen beam of energy coming
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: about to hit the ship. He's like, what you Then
- 1:00:27Speaker 3: he saw it again, like five minutes later, he goes,
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: what is that? I said, oh, actually, and I'm like,
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: they're stuck in like they're frozen in time and they've
- 1:00:34Speaker 3: tried to stop so that they the thing's gonna blow
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: them up and blah blah blah. And I said look,
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: and he ducked out and he came back in and
- 1:00:41Speaker 3: I'm watching something else and he said, I was just
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: still Stargut. I said, no, no, I finished that. But
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: it's good you didn't watch it, because that's the last
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: episode of starget sgu won't ever And he's like, oh wow,
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: here has no idea that that means a thing. And
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: I'm like, so if you were to watched that, that's
- 1:00:54Speaker 3: like the worst spoiler ever, right, and he's laughing. I'm like,
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: good because now when you get older, if you ever
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: want to watch it, we can watch all of it.
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: And he's like, oh, it gets really excited the idea
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: of us watching TV. I'm like, no, no, no, don't
- 1:01:03Speaker 3: just say yes, we will do this or you are
- 1:01:05Speaker 3: ready and you are old enough to appreciate this show.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: We will do this at Matt Damon Gift. Yeah, care
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: for Dream or something. Yes.
- 1:01:14Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not my kids that want to watch. They're like,
- 1:01:18Speaker 3: we want to watch these movies. You just keep stopping us.
- 1:01:20Speaker 3: You don't let us. I'm like, because you've got any ready,
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: you're not vat my kids. I had a big thing
- 1:01:26Speaker 3: about it last week. I said that will sit there
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: and watch an episode of the Simpsons that they haven't
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: seen it. We'll go for twenty two minutes and they'll
- 1:01:32Speaker 3: talk during the middle of it, they'll get up and
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: leave the room, and I'm like, because they're so used
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: to the idea that you can just rewind something. And
- 1:01:38Speaker 3: you know, we were listening to something on the radio.
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: You're not watching it, right, Yeah, well kind of. Yeah,
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: We're like, we're driving home the other day, listen to
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: drive time radio and you know, I don't always listen
- 1:01:48Speaker 3: to it. I'm not always in the car at that time.
- 1:01:50Speaker 3: They're saying something. It's a funny story, so just a second, mate,
- 1:01:52Speaker 3: just let me listen to this, and they just keep
- 1:01:54Speaker 3: talking over it, and then the song starts and I go,
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: I missed that. Now I can't just re wind that.
- 1:02:00Speaker 3: I said. You guys are so used to growing up
- 1:02:02Speaker 3: and everything is replayable and if you miss something, you
- 1:02:05Speaker 3: can be started again. You can go back to it later,
- 1:02:07Speaker 3: I said, working modo.
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: You know, so you know you have to watch these
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: TV shows with me and watch them the right way. Yeah,
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: that's why you're not allowed to watch anything yet. Let
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: me film your reaction.
- 1:02:18Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly as I've done before.
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: That's why I've thatt you watch eight episodes of Power
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: Rangers because you have to watch them with me. Yeah.
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: Kind of, yeah, they should be a lot further ahead
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: in their power ages watch them and Simpsons were up
- 1:02:29Speaker 3: to season seven, but like Lord of the Rings, they
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: really want to watch. This doesn't applied to mat obviously,
- 1:02:32Speaker 3: but I'm like, I don't think you are old enough
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: for your generation, which is just so the tiktoks what
- 1:02:38Speaker 3: quickness right now? W Yeah. But I'm like, either way,
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: I don't want to pl kind of. I don't want
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: to put a three hour film on where it's a
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: lot of walking and a lot of talking. I said,
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: there's some great action and it drops in every fifteen
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: minutes or whatever, but the rest of it, I don't
- 1:02:54Speaker 3: want you to get just.
- 1:02:58Speaker 8: This.
- 1:02:58Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm like, you have to your brain has to
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: be mature.
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: It's fine. I mean there's five endings. If they missed three,
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: it's fine, doesn't matter.
- 1:03:06Speaker 4: The next time in the extended versions, because they're not
- 1:03:09Speaker 4: watching that first time.
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: I'll get him to watch that one scene from Clerk
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: so the guy explains it. And actually I did that
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: watching Napoleon.
- 1:03:15Speaker 4: They had the director's cut or the theatrical cut, and
- 1:03:19Speaker 4: I'm like, I'll do the theatrical And it missed heaps
- 1:03:21Speaker 4: of ship. She had just done the director's cut.
- 1:03:24Speaker 3: All right, Yeah, I wanted to. I wanted to see
- 1:03:26Speaker 3: it at the cinemas when they only released I think
- 1:03:29Speaker 3: they only released the theatrical cut, like the shorter cut
- 1:03:32Speaker 3: in theaters, with the promise that once it hit Apple,
- 1:03:35Speaker 3: it was going to be that extra hour and a
- 1:03:36Speaker 3: half longer. And then it still wasn't for like three months.
- 1:03:40Speaker 3: And I saw that the other day that the extended
- 1:03:41Speaker 3: cut is on there, and now all of a sudden, I'm.
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: Like, watch both still.
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: Knowing that the theatrical cut kind of got hammered.
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: So I mean, I mean, why bother, Why bother watching
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: director's cuts and all that kind of stuff when the
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: only director you really need is Robert C. Cooper See Cooper.
- 1:04:01Speaker 8: I think that that particular shot, that type of shot
- 1:04:04Speaker 8: is one of my one of my stylistic signatures. I
- 1:04:10Speaker 8: particularly loved having foreground characters big in the frame.
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: And directed three episodes.
- 1:04:17Speaker 6: I just like the composition of that.
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: They're the best thing.
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: Look, you could just open up that. There should be
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: a jpeg on that on that email if you just
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: want to open up so the Ew and Brennan can
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: see that screen and just look at what he's talking
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: about that's his signature, that's his signature shots. It's a
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: person in the foreground and other people behind him. It's
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: never been done. It's called television groundbreaking. Woody Allen, who
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: you have to get the focus rate? Yeah, they call
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: it pulling the folks. It's four people standing looking at
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: the camera.
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: It's like he grew up in our kids generation where
- 1:04:54Speaker 3: if you try and video something on your phone, everything's
- 1:04:57Speaker 3: in focus.
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:04:58Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden he discovers folks all
- 1:05:00Speaker 3: the cinematic on an iPhone and going, I don't know,
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: I'm going to tell them, I'm just gonna hit. I'm
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: just gonna hit on the day and when they watch this,
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: when it airs, their mine's going to be blinded.
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: Can you know what.
- 1:05:13Speaker 3: I'm going to be my own director of photography today,
- 1:05:15Speaker 3: even the cinematographer. I'm going to teach him some ship.
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: Can we please, can we please upload that image onto
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: our socials and this episode comes out and maybe just
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: maybe just think for Emmy consideration or something like that,
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: under the considerations best cinematography. His signature.
- 1:05:34Speaker 3: This is the favorite scene of for those listening.
- 1:05:36Speaker 4: The picture is Colonel Mitchell in the foreground of sitting
- 1:05:41Speaker 4: in on the bridge of the bridge of the laundry
- 1:05:45Speaker 4: and the commanded chair Tilks standing next to him and
- 1:05:47Speaker 4: Daniel on the console. Yeah, so just for dudes, just
- 1:05:50Speaker 4: like nothing, but obviously not touching because that's his other signature.
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: Does look like doing something.
- 1:05:59Speaker 3: He's tickling the lower back, Yeah, unstrapping his.
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: Bro man's I just I just thought they wouldn't be
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: allowed to touch given that Cooper is such a homophobe.
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: And I would say the signature for Robert Ker for me,
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: would be this moment in the episode you do like girls. Yes,
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: just to be clear, that's my signature. That's my signature.
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: Gay no gay, no men touching.
- 1:06:28Speaker 3: You know they have like all the directors have their
- 1:06:30Speaker 3: jj abrams matter He's got he loves his lens flair
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: and John wu loves his slow mode doves and Cooper's like,
- 1:06:36Speaker 3: my signature is homophobia. You know that there won't be
- 1:06:41Speaker 3: a piece of content that I will create without being homophobic.
- 1:06:44Speaker 3: Somewhere there will be a homophobic moment, if not a
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: full blown character. Yeah. That was that was pretty That
- 1:06:51Speaker 3: was pretty definite. That was what I said in the podcast.
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: Couple of episodes ago when my son was coming out
- 1:06:56Speaker 3: of surgery. So he's still, you know, just teeming with
- 1:07:00Speaker 3: anesthetic running through his body, and we're just asking him
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: about girlfriends at school. We started to have a boyfriend.
- 1:07:05Speaker 3: I'm not gay. I'm like, dude, you're eleven. Calm down.
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: That'd me angry.
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: I mean, I've got to get I'm gonna get sedated
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: next week or the week after and get an end
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: of copy. So feel free to come pick me up.
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: And you know, I'm fun with that. Yeah, who knows
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: what I'll say some real shit.
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: I kind of wish that they were so Amana Tapping
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: and Chris Judge had their own little sort of fun
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: in this episod, I think because they probably weren't given
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: enough to do really sort of emotional wise, but they
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: did have their own little thing that given how homophobic
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: Cooper is, I kind of wish it had been like
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: Browder and Judge or something like that. But if you're
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: watching the episode, just keep an eye on Carter and
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: Tilk and having their little moments.
- 1:07:45Speaker 5: Now, there's something that the audience may not necessarily notice
- 1:07:49Speaker 5: that Christopher and I because there's an obvious relationship between
- 1:07:51Speaker 5: Daniel and Bella. Christopher and I have tried to make
- 1:07:54Speaker 5: a Carter Tilk relationship, but without making it really obvious.
- 1:07:58Speaker 6: That we had all these storylines playing, had these.
- 1:08:03Speaker 5: Moments that we just and it was just really fun
- 1:08:06Speaker 5: for Chris and I to just find little stolen moments
- 1:08:09Speaker 5: or looks in the montages, a little touch on the
- 1:08:11Speaker 5: shoulder with we had. We could have cleared it up
- 1:08:14Speaker 5: way more than what we did, but we just wanted
- 1:08:17Speaker 5: to be just enough that the audience goes. Maybe some
- 1:08:19Speaker 5: people notice it, maybe some people don't.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: The most obvious one is if you if you watch
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: the scene after Landry passes away and they're all sitting
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: at the table together, if you look really closely, Carter
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: and Tilk actually holding hands.
- 1:08:34Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I probably I honestly don't think I would
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: have thought anything.
- 1:08:38Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought I knew they were embracing. I didn't
- 1:08:40Speaker 4: realize it was handholding. Yeah, this is a little and
- 1:08:45Speaker 4: for me, Like.
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: You know, Tilk's not an idiot. He would have seen
- 1:08:50Speaker 3: the signs there that one and Carter had a thing
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: for each other. And even though they're stuck on a
- 1:08:53Speaker 3: ship where they're probably going to eventually die in the
- 1:08:56Speaker 3: in the blackness of space, somewhere lost. He still he's
- 1:09:00Speaker 3: will probably wouldn't cut his mates grass, you know what
- 1:09:01Speaker 3: I mean. I think he was like, well, she's never
- 1:09:04Speaker 3: going to get home to cut to That's what I mean.
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: I still think.
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: So the thing that I can do to be the
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: best wingman to me is make sure that she gets
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: some good lover and on this show, service your bitch
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: for your Yeah, we get some get some big, didn't
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: he Like?
- 1:09:18Speaker 3: Imagine him walking around like we cut thirty years on
- 1:09:20Speaker 3: and he's got the maddest ponytail you have ever ever seen,
- 1:09:25Speaker 3: and he's just walking around topless for no reason. Well,
- 1:09:30Speaker 3: okay with that. So clearly Vala and Daniel are a thing.
- 1:09:36Speaker 3: And then it was I think maybe it was a
- 1:09:39Speaker 3: Christmas so it wasn't like twenty years down the track,
- 1:09:41Speaker 3: but they very clearly established their own a relationship because
- 1:09:44Speaker 3: they had. They were sitting there very happily laughing with
- 1:09:47Speaker 3: each other and joking, but very close with everybody before Christmas.
- 1:09:50Speaker 3: A few more montage bits come back. It's the Christmas
- 1:09:53Speaker 3: episode and Mitchell sort of gets up over the table
- 1:09:56Speaker 3: and I forget which one, but he cause he kisses
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: one of both both. Yes, I mean he kisses one.
- 1:10:03Speaker 3: I forget which one was first. He kiss one and
- 1:10:05Speaker 3: it kind of makes okay, and then he goes everyone
- 1:10:07Speaker 3: kisses the other one. And I didn't even think about
- 1:10:09Speaker 3: it being a mistletone. I'm like, you know what, Yeah,
- 1:10:10Speaker 3: let's let's let's have a freak off here, like you know,
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: let's everyone why like in a way, why not? Like
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: what are they going to do?
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: Like I still like, for fifty years all Ben Brown,
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: I saw all Kem Mitchell was doing listening to you
- 1:10:23Speaker 1: and your hand tonight.
- 1:10:24Speaker 3: But I think that was that was his What would
- 1:10:26Speaker 3: he have done to have had that that memory machine
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: where he could just literally relive as as sort of
- 1:10:34Speaker 3: visceral as it was ever going to again his former experiences.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: Yeah, or he and Tilk just swapping swapping memories like
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: sharing porn.
- 1:10:43Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's I still like, regardless of whatever
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: it was, just hey, let's just this is an Augie situation.
- 1:10:48Speaker 3: There's you know, the five versts, and then you've got
- 1:10:51Speaker 3: laund Launch.
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: Still involved, and he's just off like he's.
- 1:10:58Speaker 3: Plants.
- 1:10:59Speaker 1: Where do they go?
- 1:10:59Speaker 3: It's even thirty every Thursday to the other end of
- 1:11:02Speaker 3: the ship and it's like, don't go in there, it's stinks.
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: Still didn't bandage his primtale wound.
- 1:11:10Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, poor bastard too. Were they like obviously
- 1:11:13Speaker 3: artificially manufacturing some tratonin as well, Like, dude, when you're
- 1:11:18Speaker 3: already having to rely on an artificial you know, drug
- 1:11:21Speaker 3: to replace the alien that was keeping you alive, ye
- 1:11:24Speaker 3: absolutely hate and despise, and now you're having ships alive.
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: Holy hell, man, like just and then that was and
- 1:11:31Speaker 3: then still he's the guy that has to remember all
- 1:11:34Speaker 3: of that ship.
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: Yeah. And fun fact, someone did the someone did the
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: math and said at the end off now with his
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: back he's got his little peppilo pew, you know, strip
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: of white, because apparently that's how people go gray. Someone
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: did the math. Is that he's now one hundred and
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: fifty eight years old. Yeah, which makes him fifteen years
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: older than Bratakh cool.
- 1:11:54Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: Now, so it's like the Obie lad now.
- 1:12:01Speaker 3: And when we had that from a episode a couple
- 1:12:04Speaker 3: of episodes ago, we said, that's the last we see
- 1:12:07Speaker 3: a break at all. Right, he doesn't come back to
- 1:12:09Speaker 3: the movies. So that would I mean not that they
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: would have been like, oh I'm older now, but like
- 1:12:13Speaker 3: the idea that we could have had that that would
- 1:12:15Speaker 3: have been fun.
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: But also the epitome of black dot crack. Fifty eight
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: year old Christopher Judy the next to bretag and he's like, well,
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: I'm actually fifteen years older than you.
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: So I reckon. They had a couple of extra like
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: too many shots of Tilk coming to the realization it
- 1:12:30Speaker 3: was going to have to be him to make the
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: sacrifice when they said one of us is going to
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: have to stick around because he was he was there
- 1:12:37Speaker 3: present for the conversation, but he wasn't involved in the conversation.
- 1:12:40Speaker 3: Carter was explaining it. Mitchell's in there sort of gone,
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: I think we've got whatever we've got, We've got to
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: give it a shot. Daniel still like, is there any
- 1:12:47Speaker 3: other way out?
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: Or whatever?
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: Was going on Varla because she loves to talk about
- 1:12:51Speaker 3: anything with anything. They were involved. Tilk, in the signature
- 1:12:56Speaker 3: style of Robert C. Cooper, was in the background and
- 1:12:59Speaker 3: blurred out for some of the those shots that I
- 1:13:01Speaker 3: would have loved if we didn't make it so obvious
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: that he was going to go put his hand up
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: and go me guys, Yeah, Like I think them talking
- 1:13:08Speaker 3: and maybe even if in that moment, twenty percent of
- 1:13:11Speaker 3: the audience, sixty percent of the audience go, it's got
- 1:13:13Speaker 3: to be Tilk, Like we haven't really seen him age
- 1:13:15Speaker 3: because a Jaffar don't an age like the ro or
- 1:13:18Speaker 3: whatever it was. I just don't think we needed. There
- 1:13:20Speaker 3: was probably three shots where it was just just a
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: close up of him and of him sort of like
- 1:13:27Speaker 3: looking down to the floor. Then he turned to the side,
- 1:13:30Speaker 3: then he would sort of look over again and take
- 1:13:32Speaker 3: another step to the other side of the room like
- 1:13:34Speaker 3: he was waiting for a silence where he would put
- 1:13:36Speaker 3: his hand up and say, you know, it's going to
- 1:13:38Speaker 3: be me. And I just wish we didn't have that,
- 1:13:40Speaker 3: Like I don't know whether that makes it more of
- 1:13:42Speaker 3: an emotional sort of sacrifice for the audience. Oh, that
- 1:13:46Speaker 3: come out of nowhere, Like it wasn't ever going to
- 1:13:48Speaker 3: come out of nowhere. It was the obvious choice. But
- 1:13:50Speaker 3: I still would have liked if we just didn't get
- 1:13:53Speaker 3: enough obvious points that That's.
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: Where I think, Yeah, I think you all your idea
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: is better. It should have been Daniel and VALA's adult child.
- 1:14:00Speaker 5: Oh.
- 1:14:01Speaker 3: I hadn't thought about that until literally the words are
- 1:14:03Speaker 3: coming out of my mouth. I'm just thinking about the
- 1:14:05Speaker 3: complication of that, because I mean, we don't even get
- 1:14:07Speaker 3: that conversation. We don't even get Tilk saying anything too Carter.
- 1:14:10Speaker 3: He grabs her hand, she has, Tilk, what are you doing?
- 1:14:12Speaker 3: All of a sudden it's a bloke who's looking slightly
- 1:14:15Speaker 3: older and he's got Grady's hair, And then we just
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: see the ship take off, Like we don't ever get that.
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: We don't need that conversation because she's going to I
- 1:14:24Speaker 3: guess whatever he said in short, she's gonna believe because
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: of how passionately he was saying it. But we don't
- 1:14:31Speaker 3: ever get that moment back at the base where he
- 1:14:34Speaker 3: is saying, by the way, this is why I did this,
- 1:14:37Speaker 3: Like you know he's got other than the gray hair.
- 1:14:41Speaker 3: We don't know, there's nothing to go off, Like, who's
- 1:14:43Speaker 3: to say that whatever she was about to do wasn't
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: actually gonna They didn't know it wasn't gonna work until
- 1:14:51Speaker 3: they were already stuck in the time dilation and feel like, oh,
- 1:14:53Speaker 3: hang on, no, we don't have a proper answer. See
- 1:14:55Speaker 3: him coming on going do this, It's like, okay, sure,
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: why not? So I don't know where I would have
- 1:15:00Speaker 3: liked it from a writing point of view, less so directing,
- 1:15:03Speaker 3: because the writing and put one locked off camera, we
- 1:15:07Speaker 3: can get anything. We've been a writing and then an
- 1:15:09Speaker 3: acting point of view. What does that scene play out?
- 1:15:13Speaker 3: And I hate those moments in film and in TV
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: where you get these really key, like either mythology defining
- 1:15:21Speaker 3: or scene defining, character turning moments that they hide with
- 1:15:25Speaker 3: a pullback of a shot and the score takes off
- 1:15:29Speaker 3: as the voices slowly disappear, and you're like, no, I
- 1:15:32Speaker 3: want to know what the acting is like there? What
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: what does that conversation actually look like? Because that's not
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: a real world situation. So how to real people in
- 1:15:40Speaker 3: an unreal situation explain something like that to people? And
- 1:15:44Speaker 3: we just get the huh, you're not just not going
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: to tell me anything nothing interesting happened? Oh you like,
- 1:15:50Speaker 3: we don't get any We get the fun of it.
- 1:15:52Speaker 3: I get that we'd already spent all of our run time,
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: but it just seems again nothing against the episode. I'm
- 1:15:57Speaker 3: still still give it ten out of ten or whatever,
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: just like, oh it's eleven, it's a full spinal tap.
- 1:16:02Speaker 3: If we get that extra scene, I don't nail it.
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: I don't mind the way it was done, Like from
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: a writing point of view, I think the direction was wrong,
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: and I think Cooper even acknowledges that he kind of
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: did it wrong. Because what you have to realize is
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: Tilk's gray patch is on the right side of his head,
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: and the way they shot that, when Tilk comes in
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: to grab Carter's arm to stop, you see the left
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: side of his face. You don't actually see the gray patch.
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: So Carter doesn't know at that point. That's an older
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: til I think if they shot it in a different
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: angle or put the stripe on the other side of
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: Tilk's head and he came in and Carter could feel.
- 1:16:41Speaker 3: He was looking the gray he was looking left of screen,
- 1:16:44Speaker 3: like as we watch it, he's looking left of screen.
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: So I'd say from that was the audience saw the
- 1:16:48Speaker 3: left hand side, I'd say from her, she's probably if
- 1:16:50Speaker 3: that's all we're going. But I mean, like as the
- 1:16:52Speaker 3: audience think, we don't immediately see that, she sees it.
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I think if you could immediately see the gray
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: because the other the meal was cooked a long term ago. Yeah,
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: the other the other moment was like in the first
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: time around you they specifically made Tilk doing something weird
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: like grabbing something on the ceiling of the of the
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: bridge or whatever. And then when they go and do
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: the rewind, they cut back to that scene and Tilk's
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: not there, And that was kind of a visual thing
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: for us as an audience to realize that this is
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: a different version. But yeah, I think, yeah, either the
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: stripe should have been on the other side of his
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: head or it should have been more visible to us
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: as an audience.
- 1:17:27Speaker 4: Shouldn't there be two tilks?
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: Well no, they rewound time they did and.
- 1:17:34Speaker 4: He was in the bubble. Yes, there should be two tilks.
- 1:17:38Speaker 4: I mean there's some sh don't talk about it.
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: Don't talk about it.
- 1:17:43Speaker 3: No, I thought that too. When he appeared, I'm like,
- 1:17:45Speaker 3: how do we know how far less I might be
- 1:17:46Speaker 3: able to buy us a minute? So he had a
- 1:17:48Speaker 3: minute to get Like if he just goes back and
- 1:17:50Speaker 3: it's essentially you know Dejave with Denzel or something like that,
- 1:17:54Speaker 3: his brain, he's consciousness just takes over his body at
- 1:17:58Speaker 3: that particular time. It's like, how do we still not
- 1:18:00Speaker 3: to see him just like reverse back or something whatever
- 1:18:03Speaker 3: it was going to be to get from one place
- 1:18:04Speaker 3: to time. Field the little tube column was on. That's
- 1:18:07Speaker 3: what you would have.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: Seen too, because you you have that scene where you're
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: watching Tilk and he's seeing all the explosions and stuff
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: in reverse, which was great. But then if he's able
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: to witness that, then he absolutely would have seen the
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: last fifty years of people walking backwards.
- 1:18:21Speaker 3: What if that room, what if that room that was
- 1:18:24Speaker 3: Daniel and Varl's second if that was the Augie room. Yeah,
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: as he's rewinding, because we don't know how long it took,
- 1:18:28Speaker 3: like while the ship was going back, I'm like, it
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: wasn't like it sped up really quickly, and we saw
- 1:18:33Speaker 3: going around him. It looked like it was going to
- 1:18:35Speaker 3: take like a couple of days for him to go back,
- 1:18:37Speaker 3: and he would have seen some ship. I would have
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: loved for him to sing.
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: Just watching Mitchell, just just just checking it.
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: Well, they've got two bedrooms, all right, so they would
- 1:18:46Speaker 3: have had their own room. They might have had one
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: was their sex room. That's VARA's room, and then Daniel's
- 1:18:50Speaker 3: where they go to sleep at night. But that room
- 1:18:52Speaker 3: when when Mitchell goes on these little runs, that's.
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: His little jack. Yeah, when Cam's all different, he's going
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: full weird.
- 1:18:58Speaker 3: And he's just seeing this get to shrink up, keep
- 1:19:02Speaker 3: finding coming tissues everywhere. What the what is that grumedy?
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: He gives up on the tissues and just ends up
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: just there's just a mound that just gets slowly larger
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: and larger.
- 1:19:11Speaker 3: Do you have to be to the generator? So it
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: could basically create anything like he's because if you think
- 1:19:18Speaker 3: about it, doesn't know what is for fifty years, he
- 1:19:26Speaker 3: has to ask Carter for it.
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: That's the problem. For fifty years. What else did Landry,
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: Tilk and Mitchell do, Because if you think about it,
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: Carter was the only one working the problem, and.
- 1:19:37Speaker 3: That meditation got a real Daniel.
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: Daniel was like reading the the Asgard Library as a
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: feudal attempt to kind of, you know, have his existential
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: crisis and be like, well, if I give this meaning,
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: then it's not going to be for nothing.
- 1:19:51Speaker 7: You know.
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: VALA's just vibing being Vala. But then after she and
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: Daniel hook up, she becomes more active and she's the
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: only one that goes into Carter and says, I want
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: to help you with this problem. Let's let's work this
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: problem now. If you go back to season four when
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: O'Neill and Tilk were stuck in wind of opportunity. They
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: both got involved to figure out how to work the
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: problem and work it out. So for fifty years, cam
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: Landry and Tilk just went Carter, and.
- 1:20:24Speaker 3: How quickly we got that, like we're in a problem
- 1:20:26Speaker 3: and we might be here for I mean ship, we
- 1:20:29Speaker 3: could be here for like three months. And the first
- 1:20:33Speaker 3: thing we see post that scene is Mitchell running like Okay,
- 1:20:37Speaker 3: he's got to he wants to keep himself fit, cool,
- 1:20:39Speaker 3: And it's like that's because he thinks the problem is
- 1:20:41Speaker 3: going to be solved. He doesn't want to let and
- 1:20:42Speaker 3: maybe that's his way of focusing whatever, but yeah, beyond.
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: That's a way to get rid of anxieties.
- 1:20:47Speaker 3: Yeah, and look he's struggling, not to disrespect the science
- 1:20:51Speaker 3: of it. That Like like Carter taught herself cello just
- 1:20:55Speaker 3: by wanting to do it, and she had the time,
- 1:20:58Speaker 3: and she had the time she wanted to do it.
- 1:21:00Speaker 4: Could have told her that, yeah when he came back
- 1:21:02Speaker 4: to Yeah, oh you like the cello by the way, Yeah,
- 1:21:05Speaker 4: he gives it to the gift beautifully, yeah, or a gift. Yeah,
- 1:21:10Speaker 4: just like that would have been like if o'neilan and
- 1:21:12Speaker 4: Til were able to like have Daniel teach them ancient
- 1:21:16Speaker 4: in all those time loos.
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: Yeah, like you think at some point like yeah, like
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: I said, I if originally they thought it was gonna
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: be three months, and then when Vala has that great
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: line about I'm going to go crazy and I'm taking
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: you with me if I'm in that situation and Carter
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: tells me it's gonna be three months, and we get
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: to a year and she's still got no problem, Like, Okay,
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: what can I do to help? Can what can I
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: do to man's playing this situation?
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: Anything?
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: You teach me something, just so that you have a
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: sounding board. Carter had nothing.
- 1:21:47Speaker 3: Yeah, sometimes you need to have words leave your mouth
- 1:21:50Speaker 3: for them to either make a lot more sense or
- 1:21:52Speaker 3: to realize it's a dumb ene It's like.
- 1:21:55Speaker 4: It happens to Rodney a lot in Atlantis. Says something
- 1:21:59Speaker 4: and he's like, I got it.
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: What did they say? No, no, no, I didn't nothing
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: of your idea that came.
- 1:22:04Speaker 4: To me because you're talking bullshit. But usually, like back
- 1:22:07Speaker 4: in season four and five, they used to have Til.
- 1:22:10Speaker 4: We got Tilk helping with the translation. It's been helping
- 1:22:13Speaker 4: me build this bomb or Tilk's been helping me. Like
- 1:22:17Speaker 4: Tilk could definitely be in the same room as Carter. Yeah,
- 1:22:20Speaker 4: not wanting to for fifty to leave it to her
- 1:22:23Speaker 4: and make her feel like it's all on her shoulders, right,
- 1:22:25Speaker 4: there's no way he would have yeah.
- 1:22:27Speaker 9: For fifty years. Yeah, like fifty years. Fifty years, guys, like,
- 1:22:31Speaker 9: come on, because otherwise, Apparently the fifty years was a mistake.
- 1:22:35Speaker 9: Apparently I read to be ten years in the script,
- 1:22:37Speaker 9: but the makeup that was so aged Robert Cooper couldn't
- 1:22:42Speaker 9: go back.
- 1:22:43Speaker 4: The final one. So he's like, I'm going to change
- 1:22:46Speaker 4: it fifty years. So they shot that, and then they
- 1:22:48Speaker 4: did the makeup different and shot.
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: I've got at litit of a grab here if you
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: guys want to hear it.
- 1:22:53Speaker 8: I had an opportunity to look at some, you know,
- 1:22:59Speaker 8: some really rough pictures of what the actors might look like.
- 1:23:02Speaker 8: These are basically photoshops that Todd Masters and his gang
- 1:23:06Speaker 8: take and they kind of drop what it'll potentially look like. Unfortunately,
- 1:23:11Speaker 8: because of the time constraints, the first time I saw
- 1:23:14Speaker 8: everybody actually in their makeup was about thirty seconds before
- 1:23:18Speaker 8: we had to roll a film on them. So it
- 1:23:20Speaker 8: was kind of a bit of a surprise, and I
- 1:23:23Speaker 8: would look at them and go, hmm, okay, let's shoot.
- 1:23:27Speaker 8: It wasn't like we could really keep the director and
- 1:23:30Speaker 8: they just think the most part. While the I think
- 1:23:35Speaker 8: the makeup looked good, they looked too old. The one
- 1:23:40Speaker 8: thing that I find about age makeup is that ultimately
- 1:23:44Speaker 8: people look like these, you know, dried apple.
- 1:23:47Speaker 6: People and.
- 1:23:49Speaker 8: Wrinkled prunes and the and that's not what old people
- 1:23:52Speaker 8: really look like. I mean, you tend to look like yourself,
- 1:23:56Speaker 8: but you know, just.
- 1:23:57Speaker 6: A little worse.
- 1:23:58Speaker 8: The show is age, and so we actually ended up
- 1:24:02Speaker 8: changing the script. You know, it was just it was
- 1:24:04Speaker 8: an easy change in some dialogue and hopefully that plays better.
- 1:24:11Speaker 8: I still think the mid range makeup looked great, and
- 1:24:15Speaker 8: the one that where it was supposed to be twenty
- 1:24:16Speaker 8: years later, the older makeup was good. It was just
- 1:24:21Speaker 8: it just made them look older than we had in mind.
- 1:24:24Speaker 8: Who knows, maybe it was seventy years so they actually
- 1:24:26Speaker 8: lived on the ship and they're actually one hundred and twenty.
- 1:24:28Speaker 8: You know, it's who knows, no lack of sunlight, maybe
- 1:24:33Speaker 8: the only age thirty years, and they just looked.
- 1:24:35Speaker 5: Really bad.
- 1:24:37Speaker 3: Because it's funny like when I first you know, age
- 1:24:41Speaker 3: up and you realize it it's been a while, was
- 1:24:43Speaker 3: you know Daniel and vaalor in bed and they go, oh,
- 1:24:46Speaker 3: twenty years today, And I'm thinking, well, yeah, what do
- 1:24:48Speaker 3: we passed this episode? Seventeen years since this episode came out,
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: Like we're close enough to twenty right, how much is?
- 1:24:56Speaker 3: How much is Michael Shanks and Claudia like really going
- 1:24:59Speaker 3: to age tween now and twenty twenty seven? And it's
- 1:25:02Speaker 3: they don't look that DIFP like people. And you get
- 1:25:04Speaker 3: to a certain age, you do actually start to the transition.
- 1:25:08Speaker 3: Like I'm you know, hey, my kids are here, said,
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: I'm looking at them through the window, and it's like,
- 1:25:11Speaker 3: you know, he's eleven in ten years, he's gonna look
- 1:25:14Speaker 3: a lot different. Five years ago he looks completely different
- 1:25:17Speaker 3: or something, you know, but like it's like your youngest Yeah,
- 1:25:19Speaker 3: but I look at photos of me from like when
- 1:25:21Speaker 3: I was you know, seventeen, and I think if you
- 1:25:24Speaker 3: then put those two together, you go, oh, yeah, that's
- 1:25:26Speaker 3: just him, but a toucho. He doesn't look like me
- 1:25:30Speaker 3: at thirty to now. It's slightly different, but it's not
- 1:25:34Speaker 3: like we need to apply all this makeup to make
- 1:25:36Speaker 3: myself look older. But then if they didn't do that,
- 1:25:38Speaker 3: they get twenty years down the track and go, oh,
- 1:25:40Speaker 3: we'll just add like a couple of creaselines around your eyes.
- 1:25:43Speaker 3: We as an audience probably going to be like, well,
- 1:25:45Speaker 3: I don't know, you're just not trying hard enough. They're
- 1:25:47Speaker 3: gonna look older than that. Whereas now we gets the
- 1:25:49Speaker 3: beauty of hindsight. We're watching it nearly twenty years one.
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: Because when you're a kid, like someone who's forty is
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: like ancient.
- 1:25:56Speaker 3: Yeah shut up, well.
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: Like, man, I got there a couple of weeks ago,
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: thank you very much.
- 1:26:02Speaker 3: Yeah, well we are. We're at my work and like
- 1:26:06Speaker 3: I have, you know, I call them kids. They have
- 1:26:08Speaker 3: kids driving me around to do my stuff for work,
- 1:26:11Speaker 3: and they're eighteen, nineteen twenty, and they know, and they'll
- 1:26:16Speaker 3: look and old talk about I'll say something old, the
- 1:26:18Speaker 3: fact that I'm thirty eight, and they go so old
- 1:26:20Speaker 3: like they do think about me, and I'm like, I
- 1:26:22Speaker 3: have to appreciate that. I don't want to get to
- 1:26:24Speaker 3: the point where I am one of the people that
- 1:26:27Speaker 3: when we were younger, I looked up and went, oh,
- 1:26:29Speaker 3: you don't think you're old? Or you don't know that
- 1:26:31Speaker 3: you're too old to do whatever. I don't want to
- 1:26:34Speaker 3: get to that point, but there's still moments where I'm like, hey,
- 1:26:37Speaker 3: shut up now, Like I agree with you on some
- 1:26:40Speaker 3: points but not but not that one. Like there is
- 1:26:42Speaker 3: such an age difference, Whereas now that you know we're
- 1:26:44Speaker 3: in our late thirties, Mattie's just hit forty. It's like
- 1:26:47Speaker 3: we don't feel old, like you just feel if you
- 1:26:50Speaker 3: know you are playing back, but like Brennan's got Brendan's
- 1:26:55Speaker 3: got a teenage daughter now and who just insane and
- 1:26:59Speaker 3: you know, my old this is about to turn twelve,
- 1:27:01Speaker 3: and you know that that feels weird to me. I
- 1:27:04Speaker 3: still feel like I'm only ten, maybe fifteen years older
- 1:27:07Speaker 3: than what my kids himself and.
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: We were like twelve thirteen. Yeah you go, oh that
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: wasn't that way?
- 1:27:13Speaker 3: Say that was long time.
- 1:27:15Speaker 4: Trying to tell my kids it goes fast. Yeah, man,
- 1:27:19Speaker 4: you don't really feel different.
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is the same conversation that our parents
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: said to us when we were that age. Is when
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: we were like yeah, yeah, yeah whatever.
- 1:27:25Speaker 3: I've done speeches to my old school before, and I
- 1:27:29Speaker 3: enjoy this. They can't wait to leave school, and I'm like, no, no, no,
- 1:27:32Speaker 3: you'll get You get to go to a place for
- 1:27:35Speaker 3: six hours a day and hang out with your best mates,
- 1:27:37Speaker 3: play footy for an hour, and like occasionally bloods through
- 1:27:41Speaker 3: a lesson that you know, like you're doing stuff that
- 1:27:43Speaker 3: you're not going to do it for the rest of
- 1:27:45Speaker 3: your life. And for like four of the six periods
- 1:27:47Speaker 3: you can just like just switch off and then get
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: two of them go oh, this is something that.
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: I actually enjoy three months holiday a year.
- 1:27:53Speaker 3: Exactly, and that's this is the best time in your life.
- 1:27:56Speaker 3: Guys like enjoy this and they know whatever all go
- 1:27:59Speaker 3: and then and a year out they're like, oh, wish
- 1:28:01Speaker 3: I wasn't at Union. I wish I was back at
- 1:28:03Speaker 3: still life was so much easier. It's like, yeah, man,
- 1:28:05Speaker 3: because you have to work as well, you'll never listen
- 1:28:07Speaker 3: to yes. By the time you do, it's too late.
- 1:28:08Speaker 3: So a lot of a lot of a lot of
- 1:28:12Speaker 3: feels in this episode, and.
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: Just play play Creden's under that this is the whole
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: conversation I want to know.
- 1:28:19Speaker 4: I was listening to our podcast forever in a day,
- 1:28:22Speaker 4: trying to find some highlights. Obviously my the thing I made. Yeah,
- 1:28:28Speaker 4: that was great, And we had a good conversation in
- 1:28:32Speaker 4: that podcast about Tilk and his journey from being the
- 1:28:36Speaker 4: first prime of Apophice and all the war crimes he committed.
- 1:28:40Speaker 4: And I feel like Tilk always has always been willing
- 1:28:44Speaker 4: to sacrifice himself to make make good for all the
- 1:28:48Speaker 4: bads that he's done. Yeah, to quote Black Widow, it's
- 1:28:51Speaker 4: I got a lot of red in my ledger. Yeah, right,
- 1:28:54Speaker 4: So like I feel like even if he wasn't even
- 1:28:59Speaker 4: if he wouldn't live longer, I feel like he still
- 1:29:01Speaker 4: would have done it. Still, like he still would have
- 1:29:04Speaker 4: sacrificed himself.
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: Yeah, that noble warrior aspect.
- 1:29:07Speaker 3: That fifty years thing, if that was like a change
- 1:29:10Speaker 3: they had to make, that is the best and happiest
- 1:29:12Speaker 3: accident that come across. Because if it was only ten years,
- 1:29:14Speaker 3: you'd be like, oh, man, Like, if we only knew
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: it was supposed to be ten years, that is a
- 1:29:17Speaker 3: long time that you could lose in an instant. But
- 1:29:21Speaker 3: for it to be fifty that makes that whole tialk thing.
- 1:29:25Speaker 3: You know, the amount of times I've thought about this,
- 1:29:27Speaker 3: doing this rewatch and doing this podcast, and whenever Reese
- 1:29:30Speaker 3: just used to this spew love about Tilk and I'm like, man,
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: you don't know what he gives up at the end. Yes,
- 1:29:34Speaker 3: he lived fifty years of confined life. Yeah, totally and
- 1:29:38Speaker 3: as happily like to put his hand up and go,
- 1:29:41Speaker 3: you know what has to be fine.
- 1:29:42Speaker 4: He's done. That's that's what I mean. I feel like
- 1:29:44Speaker 4: he's he's done his time. Yeah, and fifty years in confined.
- 1:29:47Speaker 3: We've questioned if over the last two seasons, since.
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: That time great episode of Space nine, you.
- 1:29:54Speaker 3: Get away with that stuff? Yeah, yeah, we might have to.
- 1:29:58Speaker 3: Now there we go that. You know, he doesn't and
- 1:30:03Speaker 3: shouldn't have really been there for the last two seasons,
- 1:30:06Speaker 3: like he did his bit as a Jafar and freeing
- 1:30:08Speaker 3: his people and getting rid of the gould and all
- 1:30:10Speaker 3: that sort of stuff. And yet at the end of
- 1:30:13Speaker 3: this episode, beyond beyond all of that and with his people,
- 1:30:17Speaker 3: he's lived another fifty years walking around a ship and
- 1:30:20Speaker 3: just sort of supervising other stuff, maybe porking Carter every
- 1:30:23Speaker 3: now and again. We don't know then to come back,
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: And in that last scene he's still at the bottom
- 1:30:28Speaker 3: of the ramp ready to go on another goddamn mission
- 1:30:30Speaker 3: witness team because these are his people. Maybe he feels
- 1:30:32Speaker 3: more connected than to them now even though they don't
- 1:30:35Speaker 3: have those shared memories and shared experiences, but he loves
- 1:30:37Speaker 3: them more now. You know, he knew Cardi for seven
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: or eight or ten years. He knew it for ten years.
- 1:30:43Speaker 3: Now he's known her for sixty.
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: But also hasn't said also he hasn't seen his son
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: Ryak in fifty years. Yeah, right, and the age even
- 1:30:55Speaker 1: mean you think.
- 1:30:56Speaker 3: At one stage it's like this, by the fifty years
- 1:31:00Speaker 3: market they're talking about, he's around the table.
- 1:31:01Speaker 4: Going, yes, we're talking about we're talking about VALA's abortions.
- 1:31:05Speaker 4: We can't talk about Tilk.
- 1:31:06Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, like does he have a rish for what?
- 1:31:09Speaker 3: I hope Ryak's child grows up in a freer world,
- 1:31:12Speaker 3: a freer galaxy than Riyac.
- 1:31:14Speaker 7: Did you know?
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: I hope he can be a better father than I
- 1:31:16Speaker 3: ever was, or something like no, I do mis When
- 1:31:20Speaker 3: was the last time that the name Ryak was mentioned
- 1:31:23Speaker 3: in an episode Holy An eight?
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: When he got married?
- 1:31:27Speaker 7: That was it?
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: I mean that happens to the best. That's the subject
- 1:31:32Speaker 1: get married in your life.
- 1:31:33Speaker 3: Though we're talking about it being a while, like with
- 1:31:35Speaker 3: with the Asgard thing, like I knew we hadn't seen
- 1:31:38Speaker 3: him in a while. But when he pops into the
- 1:31:40Speaker 3: bridge and they go, hey, it's been a while. This
- 1:31:42Speaker 3: is Landry, this is Vala, this is Mitchell, and I'm like,
- 1:31:45Speaker 3: get out of here. What are you talking about? You
- 1:31:49Speaker 3: introducing them to Landry and Mitchell. Varla I can understand,
- 1:31:52Speaker 3: because she would have been off with the fairies at
- 1:31:54Speaker 3: the best of times. But these two people that have
- 1:31:56Speaker 3: been a staple since episode one of season nine, Holy
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: not just.
- 1:32:00Speaker 1: Like New Order. Have we seen the ass guards were?
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: They were as guard ships at the battle at the
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: end of end of last season, beginning of this season,
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: but having actually seen Thor in particular or any actual
- 1:32:11Speaker 1: as guard would have been New Order.
- 1:32:13Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: They needed to have something familiar. That's why I can't
- 1:32:18Speaker 4: just don't really enjoy season nine and ten that much.
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: I thought I would like it, but I do on
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: their own I think, I like, I think it should
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: have been the different show. It should have been Stargate Command.
- 1:32:29Speaker 1: I think as as their own little thing. If you
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: even take Unending out and you've just watched season nine
- 1:32:34Speaker 1: and ten, skip Unending and watch Arc of Truth, that's
- 1:32:38Speaker 1: a great little two season show that was Camp before
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: it's time.
- 1:32:42Speaker 4: Do they even go back before season eight in terms
- 1:32:45Speaker 4: of characters.
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: Like, I know they have.
- 1:32:49Speaker 4: They having their reference the truth, the Trust, but I
- 1:32:53Speaker 4: mean Barrett, I mean like alien races, like the Knox.
- 1:32:57Speaker 4: There's no Knocks as Guard, There's no Tokra. Is there
- 1:33:01Speaker 4: even Ancients? No Merlin at the start? Oh, I guess Merlin? Yeah,
- 1:33:07Speaker 4: Merlin and.
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: Morgan le Fay, but again not not not characters we
- 1:33:14Speaker 1: know of, not Oma de sala. I guess Allan. Allan
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: was probably the closest the kid, Yeah, the kid version
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: of all In.
- 1:33:20Speaker 3: I guess there's such a fine line between Like there's
- 1:33:26Speaker 3: a thing come out this week. There are reports that
- 1:33:27Speaker 3: studios I don't even know where the base of this
- 1:33:31Speaker 3: reporting comes from, with a source of it or anything
- 1:33:33Speaker 3: whatever that studios are putting together. Essentially, it's like they're
- 1:33:37Speaker 3: forming their own little committee of like super fans that
- 1:33:40Speaker 3: they can run shit past, right, So.
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: Like Star Wars is what they have been doing for
- 1:33:44Speaker 1: the last fifteen years.
- 1:33:46Speaker 3: Nah, but the okay, soar star Wars a great example.
- 1:33:49Speaker 3: It's like, hey, so what we're thinking about doing is
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: Luke Skywalker actually doesn't He's he's went off because he Okay,
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: you know, you know how you loved in the expanded
- 1:33:59Speaker 3: Universe that he went a little dark side, you know
- 1:34:01Speaker 3: how you love that. We're actually gonna do that. But
- 1:34:04Speaker 3: he's already done that, and then he feels bad for it,
- 1:34:06Speaker 3: and he's put himself into excele because he doesn't trust
- 1:34:08Speaker 3: himself to be Okay, so we're gonna do that, and
- 1:34:10Speaker 3: people go, nah, no, no, no, we don't like that.
- 1:34:13Speaker 3: Give us the look that we want to see who
- 1:34:14Speaker 3: comes in and what likes to destroy shit with his
- 1:34:16Speaker 3: light sabers. Okay, Okay, that's what we're gonna do, because
- 1:34:19Speaker 3: this group of fans thinks that that's a bad idea,
- 1:34:22Speaker 3: or do what they kind of ended up doing. Anyway,
- 1:34:25Speaker 3: Whereas the last Jedi happened, fandom come out went what
- 1:34:27Speaker 3: the fuck.
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: Was that shit?
- 1:34:29Speaker 3: We love member berries, give us some old shit nostalgia,
- 1:34:32Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden we get a somehow
- 1:34:34Speaker 3: Palpatine returned. He wasn't a part of anything, no parts
- 1:34:37Speaker 3: of anything in episode seven or eight now, but enough
- 1:34:41Speaker 3: people complained about the shit that they thought they were
- 1:34:43Speaker 3: going to get in number eight that they didn't get,
- 1:34:45Speaker 3: they wish they get, And then you get number nine
- 1:34:48Speaker 3: that does follow on from eight, but doesn't reference enough,
- 1:34:50Speaker 3: and it's almost like it could have minus a couple
- 1:34:53Speaker 3: of missing little story beats between seven and nine. It's
- 1:34:56Speaker 3: basically like it's a sequel to seven and not to eight.
- 1:35:00Speaker 3: And with superhero movies or whatever, you know, whether it's
- 1:35:03Speaker 3: your Snyder verse and they go where we want to
- 1:35:05Speaker 3: look at this through like your Black series comic books
- 1:35:08Speaker 3: that take these characters and just look at them a
- 1:35:11Speaker 3: little different. There's a new comic at this week called
- 1:35:13Speaker 3: Absolute Batman. I'm like, oh, what's this? Open it up
- 1:35:15Speaker 3: to read about it, and it's like, this is Batman
- 1:35:18Speaker 3: without the money, without the butler, without the mansion. What's left?
- 1:35:21Speaker 3: Absolute Batman. I'm like, okay, but that's but that's not homeless.
- 1:35:25Speaker 3: That's not who Batman is. And Darren Aronofsky great direct, clever,
- 1:35:29Speaker 3: that's what he wanted to do before we got what
- 1:35:31Speaker 3: Maddie still doesn't like the Nolan films. Before we got
- 1:35:33Speaker 3: the Nolan films post Batman and Robin, we were going
- 1:35:37Speaker 3: to get Darren Aronofsky doing a Batman film where he
- 1:35:41Speaker 3: was a homeless guy that pieces together a suit and
- 1:35:44Speaker 3: it wants to become this Vigilanti and does all this
- 1:35:46Speaker 3: other stuff, and it would have been a complete flitch
- 1:35:48Speaker 3: of the coin.
- 1:35:49Speaker 1: That's Daredevil with sight. Sure, sure, but.
- 1:35:52Speaker 3: That's the thing, Like they didn't end up doing that,
- 1:35:54Speaker 3: probably because they get they get cold feet about it,
- 1:35:56Speaker 3: and I don't know that they're necessarily going to end
- 1:35:59Speaker 3: up doing this. Maybe that's going to be like something
- 1:36:01Speaker 3: they can to.
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: An episode where Bruce Wayne goes bankrupt.
- 1:36:04Speaker 3: Done, yeah, which I mean they did.
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: I think they did it in Harley Quinn he didn't
- 1:36:07Speaker 1: pay Jaxes and went to prison or.
- 1:36:08Speaker 3: Something, And they've done that in the comics. That's been
- 1:36:10Speaker 3: recent storylines and stuff where like the Joker has basically
- 1:36:14Speaker 3: because he can't stop Batman, He's like seen there's a been,
- 1:36:17Speaker 3: it's a Joker. There's been a plan where bat Bruce
- 1:36:20Speaker 3: Wayne has been bankrupted, so let's go after Bruce Wayne.
- 1:36:22Speaker 3: That might stop Batman. But either way, I'm just like
- 1:36:25Speaker 3: all this stuff, what could we have gotten through start?
- 1:36:27Speaker 3: Or if we're going to get Stargate coming back? You know,
- 1:36:30Speaker 3: we're sitting here at the end of going do they
- 1:36:32Speaker 3: remember they didn't do this? You know, where have the
- 1:36:33Speaker 3: knocks ever been? Like they told us in season one
- 1:36:37Speaker 3: how important the Knocks were, and then built off the
- 1:36:40Speaker 3: idea of the four Great Races. We never see the
- 1:36:43Speaker 3: Knocks again, We never meet the Furlings, we barely even
- 1:36:46Speaker 3: mentioned them, the Asguard we're gonna end up killing, and
- 1:36:49Speaker 3: the Ancients We've like built this entire franchise around, come
- 1:36:52Speaker 3: the back half of SG one and certainly around Atlantis,
- 1:36:56Speaker 3: but don't really appear much. We hear about them, we
- 1:36:59Speaker 3: know their rules we're supposed to play in, but they
- 1:37:01Speaker 3: don't play a part because that's who they are. They
- 1:37:05Speaker 3: don't interfere and everything else. I'm gonna style of different
- 1:37:08Speaker 3: characters like Hammond, anything that they could have, Well, do
- 1:37:12Speaker 3: we how much of that should we have paid off?
- 1:37:14Speaker 3: Or do we get a cameo from in the dying
- 1:37:17Speaker 3: episodes of SG one before it just becomes fan service
- 1:37:22Speaker 3: sort of stuff. But also how much of these guys
- 1:37:25Speaker 3: forgetting they that they created Back in season two they
- 1:37:29Speaker 3: told us it was important. It's up on a storyboard somewhere,
- 1:37:31Speaker 3: but then come episode or season ten, they're like, they
- 1:37:34Speaker 3: don't even remember that that's there because they're not going
- 1:37:37Speaker 3: back and rewatching it every week. There are groups of
- 1:37:39Speaker 3: super fans far more into it than even we are
- 1:37:43Speaker 3: that are just living and breathing, rewatching this, ending it,
- 1:37:46Speaker 3: rewatching it again, ending it, rewatching it, living living this
- 1:37:49Speaker 3: life of SG one or whatever their fandom is, that
- 1:37:52Speaker 3: would be able to sit there and write a Bible
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: And how much do you like a very fin line
- 1:37:57Speaker 3: between that's.
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: I mean like if you don't do that, if you
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: want to make Stargate without doing any of that, you
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: get origins.
- 1:38:02Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's the thing, that thing you don't listen,
- 1:38:05Speaker 4: And that's not something that with the origins is that
- 1:38:07Speaker 4: we predicted every single thing that they would do wrong,
- 1:38:11Speaker 4: and they did it anyway.
- 1:38:12Speaker 3: But what would be a dream of ours?
- 1:38:14Speaker 5: Right?
- 1:38:15Speaker 3: And maybe it wouldn't be let's even just say that.
- 1:38:16Speaker 3: It was like they they're going to make an SG
- 1:38:19Speaker 3: one or an SG of anything revival on Amazon, which
- 1:38:23Speaker 3: obviously we've been hoping for for years. Anyway, and somehow,
- 1:38:26Speaker 3: some way, someone who is a writer or is this whatever,
- 1:38:29Speaker 3: great fan of our podcast. God, you guys have some
- 1:38:31Speaker 3: great insights. We're going to bring you on as consultants.
- 1:38:36Speaker 3: The word we're going to bring you on as a consultant,
- 1:38:39Speaker 3: Like amazing, we would do at what point does that
- 1:38:43Speaker 3: because is that a great idea? Because they go, look,
- 1:38:46Speaker 3: we want to do this thing. Does this contradict anything
- 1:38:48Speaker 3: that's happened before? And you got yep, season two, episode sixteen. Matt,
- 1:38:51Speaker 3: He's like, actually, season four they did this, but they retroactively,
- 1:38:54Speaker 3: they reckconned it this way blah blah blah before. And
- 1:38:58Speaker 3: you know, that's the thing that I fear most about
- 1:39:00Speaker 3: Stargate is if it does come back, how different is
- 1:39:04Speaker 3: it going to be because they need to make it
- 1:39:05Speaker 3: a new show, they need to make it a different show.
- 1:39:07Speaker 4: Well that's how you end up with shows like Picard
- 1:39:10Speaker 4: and they'll do they'll do something stupid like Wormhole's two
- 1:39:14Speaker 4: way travel.
- 1:39:15Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And that's the thing that's the problem with
- 1:39:19Speaker 1: sort of the you know, Hollywood slash the movie TV industry.
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: It's like, now everything has to be part of a
- 1:39:25Speaker 1: franchise in an extended universe, and it's it's got to
- 1:39:28Speaker 1: have it an ip with a built in fandom already,
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: because they're not willing to let fandoms grow. They're not
- 1:39:33Speaker 1: willing to just let a little show just you know,
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: put stuff out over a couple of years and build
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: it needs to have an instant fandom, so they go, Okay,
- 1:39:40Speaker 1: we wan't think it's got a built in fandom already.
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: And then some they go, okay, well, let's do Stargate.
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: But what if we took away everything that made it
- 1:39:47Speaker 1: Stargate and then did this so it would be something
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: different and edgy, and then wonder why the fandom didn't
- 1:39:53Speaker 1: enjoy it when it's like, well, you know, you've put
- 1:39:55Speaker 1: a name on something that has nothing to do with
- 1:39:58Speaker 1: why we're fans of it. So and I agree, it's
- 1:40:01Speaker 1: an unenviable task in terms of trying to find the
- 1:40:04Speaker 1: balance of making something new and interesting but also have
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: enough touchstones and memo berries and all that kind of
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: stuff to make it worthy of the franchise, but also
- 1:40:13Speaker 1: be enjoyed by existing fans still bring in new fans.
- 1:40:16Speaker 4: Yeah, and the Late Riders still had, like say SG one,
- 1:40:20Speaker 4: season five, six and seven, they still had to follow
- 1:40:23Speaker 4: the law. Yeah, yeah one to season one to four.
- 1:40:26Speaker 4: So it's not that difficult. If you go you're like, oh,
- 1:40:29Speaker 4: can we do you would have a consultant, can we
- 1:40:32Speaker 4: do this?
- 1:40:33Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: Yeah, you can do that, yeah, whatever it is, and
- 1:40:37Speaker 1: then you can add it. Yeah, you could just and
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: much like they did in the latest seasons. They just like,
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: we know what, we're not going to do the three
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: shots disintegrates on a zapp. We're just not going to
- 1:40:46Speaker 1: do it anymore, yeah, because we don't like it. But
- 1:40:48Speaker 1: we're still going to have Zat's one Tron shot is
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: still going to stun. We're not going to even worry
- 1:40:52Speaker 1: too much about the second shot killing. But we're just
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: going to use it as a stun gun.
- 1:40:56Speaker 3: And that's it.
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: That's all it is now.
- 1:40:57Speaker 3: Because we could create a new weapon that does what
- 1:40:59Speaker 3: we want it to do, but the fans weren't like
- 1:41:01Speaker 3: that we're doing this new weapon when we could just
- 1:41:03Speaker 3: use an old one, So okay, let's use the name
- 1:41:05Speaker 3: of the old one and do it.
- 1:41:06Speaker 1: And it's like, but it's just fine fun by me.
- 1:41:09Speaker 2: I like that.
- 1:41:10Speaker 4: It's kind of a quirkiness that they changed it in
- 1:41:12Speaker 4: the series, But if they changed it in a reboot,
- 1:41:16Speaker 4: it'd be like, come on, yeahs disintegrate.
- 1:41:22Speaker 3: Yeah, because I found like watching this, I was like,
- 1:41:25Speaker 3: what if they and they never would have done it,
- 1:41:27Speaker 3: but what if they didn't want to Just Okay, it
- 1:41:31Speaker 3: ended by not ending in a way like it ends.
- 1:41:34Speaker 1: It ended by unending.
- 1:41:40Speaker 3: They you know, they land back in on Earth, go
- 1:41:48Speaker 3: to the SGC. There's clearly been a debrief. They line up.
- 1:41:51Speaker 3: Oh tilk's old. Now okay, let's go through the gate.
- 1:41:53Speaker 3: Just another world galaxy, Saban mission, sir. Whatever it was,
- 1:41:57Speaker 3: the show just ended. There wasn't like all the character
- 1:42:00Speaker 3: has died. It wasn't like that the enemy was like
- 1:42:02Speaker 3: properly defeated or whatever. It just ended. And okay, yes,
- 1:42:06Speaker 3: even if you thought that there was movies coming that,
- 1:42:09Speaker 3: I guess that does make things different. I mean having
- 1:42:12Speaker 3: you know, having said that one of my favorite series
- 1:42:15Speaker 3: finales of all time, which is WEE. Because eventually Netflix
- 1:42:19Speaker 3: bought it and brought the show back, and so now
- 1:42:21Speaker 3: it's just season three of five seasons but arrested development.
- 1:42:24Speaker 3: Far different show, and you can say, look, every you know,
- 1:42:27Speaker 3: it's just a comedy show, so there's no real giant stakes.
- 1:42:29Speaker 3: But the way that it season three ended spoiler alert
- 1:42:34Speaker 3: for two thousand and three finale. They get to it
- 1:42:37Speaker 3: and Jason Bateman's character and he just says to we
- 1:42:39Speaker 3: Sun this shit, he's stick a deal with his family. Shit,
- 1:42:41Speaker 3: Let's get in the boat, get the out of it.
- 1:42:43Speaker 3: And he leaves and he's done, Like the family didn't
- 1:42:45Speaker 3: resolve their legal dramas, Like there wasn't like the are
- 1:42:49Speaker 3: they gonna divorce or not couple between his sister and
- 1:42:52Speaker 3: his brother in law and what's going on with this
- 1:42:54Speaker 3: other side and all these other little threads that were
- 1:42:56Speaker 3: just funny to track along the way. Not like everything
- 1:42:59Speaker 3: got resolve. They just decided to wrap it up, and
- 1:43:03Speaker 3: it's like nothing final happened. And that for me, honestly,
- 1:43:07Speaker 3: I've watched that. That's the greatest series finale I've ever
- 1:43:09Speaker 3: seen in my life.
- 1:43:10Speaker 1: It's the Scrubs finale.
- 1:43:11Speaker 3: Mate, Sure, sure, maybe I do. And because you said too,
- 1:43:14Speaker 3: because when they wanted to what they were going to
- 1:43:17Speaker 3: bring that back, and he didn't want to do because
- 1:43:20Speaker 3: he wanted to bring it back as a different show
- 1:43:23Speaker 3: with very much like with the old with the original
- 1:43:25Speaker 3: cast as the mentors and not playing roles and stuff,
- 1:43:28Speaker 3: and so like you know, I've enjoyed I've never saw
- 1:43:31Speaker 3: season five arrested. As much as I love the show,
- 1:43:33Speaker 3: I never saw season five like season four. But it
- 1:43:36Speaker 3: was the greatest finale. And yet that's what kind of
- 1:43:38Speaker 3: SG one did with this. It's just like it ends
- 1:43:40Speaker 3: by unending it didn't end, and yet I was like,
- 1:43:45Speaker 3: what if what They never would have done it, but
- 1:43:47Speaker 3: what if it did end with them? We've got to
- 1:43:51Speaker 3: mind time dilation thing. They realized they can't fix it,
- 1:43:53Speaker 3: and that's how it ends. Because this show go. We
- 1:43:56Speaker 3: cannot kill these characters. We don't want to put them
- 1:43:58Speaker 3: in a position where we can never use them. Let's
- 1:44:00Speaker 3: have them lost the Let's have them lost and maybe
- 1:44:04Speaker 3: maybe Atlantis can bring them back, because I mean, a
- 1:44:07Speaker 3: key SG one character coming to Atlantis that would never happen, right,
- 1:44:10Speaker 3: I've seen DVD cases happen in the show, but I
- 1:44:13Speaker 3: know something's coming. But to leave it out where let's
- 1:44:16Speaker 3: fix the problem. Let's bring them back in a big
- 1:44:18Speaker 3: way beyond this because we know this is our finale.
- 1:44:21Speaker 3: No one will let this show continue, so let's let
- 1:44:23Speaker 3: these characters. Let's wrap up their story after this.
- 1:44:27Speaker 1: I think I I lean on the on the idea
- 1:44:30Speaker 1: that if Arka of Truth had never been made, I
- 1:44:34Speaker 1: think I would be a little more salty about this
- 1:44:37Speaker 1: episode as the finale, You're like, oh, that that's it
- 1:44:41Speaker 1: really five minutes of the Yeah, And as much as
- 1:44:45Speaker 1: as ARCA of Truth definitely has a lot of problems.
- 1:44:49Speaker 1: At least it wraps up the ari I storyline, so
- 1:44:54Speaker 1: we get a little bit of closure on that, And
- 1:44:56Speaker 1: I think because of that it allows me to enjoy
- 1:44:59Speaker 1: Unending as as the button because yeah, I don't know,
- 1:45:05Speaker 1: like you can't sort of say, well, it takes place
- 1:45:07Speaker 1: after Arc of Truth because it doesn't, but it just
- 1:45:08Speaker 1: kind of I don't know. I guess in the same
- 1:45:11Speaker 1: way you know, going back and watching the Clone Wars
- 1:45:15Speaker 1: cartoon helps the prequels, I think Ark of Truth helps Unending, Yeah,
- 1:45:21Speaker 1: because I think, Yeah, I think if I think if
- 1:45:23Speaker 1: Unending had been the last week saw of any of
- 1:45:25Speaker 1: these characters and then you know, Atlantis went on in
- 1:45:27Speaker 1: Universe went on, it would be a little bit just flacid,
- 1:45:32Speaker 1: like ah okay, all right. But yeah, I think knowing
- 1:45:36Speaker 1: that Arc of Truth is still to come, it means
- 1:45:40Speaker 1: you can actually just focus on the timey whimy window
- 1:45:43Speaker 1: of opportunity aspect of this episode and enjoy that for
- 1:45:47Speaker 1: what it is. You don't have to worry about the
- 1:45:48Speaker 1: fact that it doesn't actually wrap up the last two
- 1:45:51Speaker 1: seasons worth of episodes.
- 1:45:53Speaker 3: Yeah, because I just I love I've always loved sequels,
- 1:45:55Speaker 3: not because I'm like, oh, I just want a carbon
- 1:45:57Speaker 3: copy of what came before. It's just more.
- 1:46:00Speaker 1: I like, you've got some episods of Stargate for you.
- 1:46:02Speaker 3: I just like the idea that a story doesn't just
- 1:46:07Speaker 3: exist for two weeks. The movie takes place over two weeks.
- 1:46:11Speaker 3: The universe literally began a second before that movie started,
- 1:46:14Speaker 3: and the universe was destroyed as the end credits rolled,
- 1:46:17Speaker 3: Like those people they went off into the sunset? But
- 1:46:20Speaker 3: what happened when he stopped writing? Although there's couple they
- 1:46:22Speaker 3: went off to live happily ever after? What happens when
- 1:46:24Speaker 3: they have their first fight?
- 1:46:25Speaker 7: You know?
- 1:46:25Speaker 3: When do they break up? Do they get whatever?
- 1:46:27Speaker 9: You know?
- 1:46:28Speaker 3: So I love when you can re and if Stargate
- 1:46:31Speaker 3: gets brought back, I don't just want SG one season eleven,
- 1:46:34Speaker 3: where you get Okay, Carter twenty years on and Mitchell
- 1:46:37Speaker 3: still there and Jackson still back and he's still fighting
- 1:46:39Speaker 3: with Valor and Tials still there even though he probably
- 1:46:42Speaker 3: shouldn't be. And Landry still there trying to work stuff
- 1:46:45Speaker 3: out as a really aging Bridges brother. Like, we don't
- 1:46:47Speaker 3: need just to see Oh, it's not like nothing has
- 1:46:50Speaker 3: not happened over the last fifteen years. I want to
- 1:46:52Speaker 3: see what SG sorry season nine was supposed to be.
- 1:46:56Speaker 3: I want to see the SGC because this is a
- 1:46:58Speaker 3: much bigger world that I love following that team, but
- 1:47:02Speaker 3: I also want to see what does that world look
- 1:47:04Speaker 3: like elsewhere? Like I love gen v in the Boys Universe,
- 1:47:09Speaker 3: It's like, this is a completely different story. It's still
- 1:47:12Speaker 3: got ties heavy ties, but it's about a completely different
- 1:47:15Speaker 3: set of characters who exist in this same world. How
- 1:47:18Speaker 3: does the rules of this world apply to college kids
- 1:47:21Speaker 3: who don't have run ins with Homelander every episode and
- 1:47:24Speaker 3: Billy Butcher's not showing up and talking to them every
- 1:47:26Speaker 3: second episode or something like that. What does this world
- 1:47:29Speaker 3: look like in a different part of America? And they've
- 1:47:31Speaker 3: got a Mexico spin off coming soon as well, and
- 1:47:33Speaker 3: they've got something else happening, Like, what does this world
- 1:47:36Speaker 3: look like without just relying on keeping these characters doing
- 1:47:39Speaker 3: the same thing every single time we watch them, because
- 1:47:42Speaker 3: that will eventually get old. And I've enjoyed as much
- 1:47:45Speaker 3: as there's been some dud episodes, I have loved watching
- 1:47:49Speaker 3: SG one from the piled episode until unending right now
- 1:47:52Speaker 3: because I love watching these characters in this world go
- 1:47:55Speaker 3: through these stories, and I would happily watch them in
- 1:47:58Speaker 3: a season eleven. But if it meant for the betterment
- 1:48:02Speaker 3: of the show and the longevity of a franchise to
- 1:48:05Speaker 3: come back and do something different without it just being
- 1:48:08Speaker 3: fan service every single episode, then yeah, you know, give
- 1:48:12Speaker 3: it to us. But it's a very especially in today's
- 1:48:14Speaker 3: world where we seem to have such little patience and
- 1:48:18Speaker 3: little breathing room that we give to anything, let alone
- 1:48:22Speaker 3: something that's coming back with that or of nostalgia. There's
- 1:48:26Speaker 3: I mean, you're never going to please everybody anyway, but
- 1:48:31Speaker 3: the percent where you please the majority of people that
- 1:48:35Speaker 3: sweet spot is so small.
- 1:48:38Speaker 1: So I would love I would actually love to get
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: maybe Peter Delawees to just write just whatever that lasts
- 1:48:45Speaker 1: miss Like at the end of un Ending, after all
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: the emotional stuff, we get to the end and they say, Okay,
- 1:48:49Speaker 1: we're going on this next mission. I'd love for Peter
- 1:48:52Speaker 1: Delowize to write what that mission actually was. Like. We
- 1:48:55Speaker 1: see them walking through the stargate at the very end
- 1:48:57Speaker 1: of this episode and it's just the most boring, mundane
- 1:49:02Speaker 1: It's nothing.
- 1:49:03Speaker 3: The one that we hated that said should have been
- 1:49:05Speaker 3: a an episode in the middle where they got stuck
- 1:49:09Speaker 3: in the in the museum on the.
- 1:49:10Speaker 1: Other Yeah, yeah, bad guys. Yeah, it's just this really
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: late just yeah, just episode when nothing of consequence happens.
- 1:49:18Speaker 1: It's just this super boring planet. Yeah. That would just
- 1:49:22Speaker 1: be hilarious to me because yeah, because it's like, because
- 1:49:24Speaker 1: the way they said it would be like, okay, now
- 1:49:26Speaker 1: they just headed off on more missions. What that could
- 1:49:29Speaker 1: have possibly been would be hilarious or the fun part
- 1:49:32Speaker 1: of that being like that mission they find the planet
- 1:49:36Speaker 1: that we that we that we pick up on in
- 1:49:38Speaker 1: Ark of Truth. Yeah, obviously not the exact same thing
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: as Card of Something got long hair, But it's like
- 1:49:43Speaker 1: they find that planet and then actually that becomes like
- 1:49:46Speaker 1: the new.
- 1:49:46Speaker 4: Dakar first Cookie Crumb or whatever. Yeah, to take him
- 1:49:50Speaker 4: to that planet.
- 1:49:50Speaker 1: Would be would be quite interesting. Do do you want
- 1:49:55Speaker 1: to hear any more Cooper ship?
- 1:49:57Speaker 3: Let's do it?
- 1:49:58Speaker 1: Okay, just him talk bigg his I mentioned before him
- 1:50:01Speaker 1: bigging up. He wrote the Fifth Rice. His mom did it.
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: We all know.
- 1:50:06Speaker 6: So here's here's a big scene again.
- 1:50:09Speaker 8: A lot of residents, you know, nine years ago I
- 1:50:15Speaker 8: wrote an episode called the Fifth.
- 1:50:16Speaker 6: Race, which a lot of things reacted very positively too.
- 1:50:23Speaker 8: It was all about the humans sort of becoming a
- 1:50:25Speaker 8: part of the fabric of the alien, the advanced Alien,
- 1:50:30Speaker 8: you know, alliance, the Furlings, the the as Guard and
- 1:50:36Speaker 8: by the way, I read recently that I never really
- 1:50:38Speaker 8: I never knew this, but apparently furlings is if if
- 1:50:42Speaker 8: you what is that?
- 1:50:43Speaker 6: What is that called?
- 1:50:43Speaker 8: When you have like a word trumble mix up the
- 1:50:47Speaker 8: letters and it's a n anagram for fun girls. Hey, Well,
- 1:50:53Speaker 8: which I was not intentional on.
- 1:50:55Speaker 6: My part, but this is a subliminal perhaps, Yeah, it was.
- 1:50:58Speaker 8: It was the Furlings, the as Guard, the Knox and
- 1:51:01Speaker 8: h and the Ancient School obviously had moved on and ascended.
- 1:51:04Speaker 8: But this was a very important scene because this was
- 1:51:07Speaker 8: the first time that that thora had had kind of
- 1:51:12Speaker 8: let you guys know that you were in fact the
- 1:51:16Speaker 8: had become earned the earned the honor, which is again
- 1:51:20Speaker 8: another milestone that I think was important to have covered
- 1:51:24Speaker 8: by the before we before we ended the ended the show.
- 1:51:28Speaker 1: And well he waited to the very last episode to
- 1:51:31Speaker 1: do that.
- 1:51:32Speaker 3: So that's imagine they would have worked off the anagram
- 1:51:36Speaker 3: and fun girls. It was just like a group like
- 1:51:39Speaker 3: just raging hot women. Yeah, and then we just like
- 1:51:45Speaker 3: the fun piece of trivia behind that was that it
- 1:51:47Speaker 3: was an anagram. I wonder.
- 1:51:49Speaker 1: I wonder if his homophobia extends to women as well, Like,
- 1:51:51Speaker 1: you know, if it were the women were the hot women,
- 1:51:54Speaker 1: are they allowed to do stuff? Or is it just
- 1:51:57Speaker 1: guys that he has an issue with.
- 1:51:58Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why those Jafar Warrior group. Oh, I didn't
- 1:52:01Speaker 3: keep coming back because he's like, if we just keep
- 1:52:03Speaker 3: showing that they're just like hanging out with.
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: Each otherst with those women, and we won't play the
- 1:52:09Speaker 1: whole thing because it's quite long. But just when I
- 1:52:12Speaker 1: played the Old Age may Cup.
- 1:52:14Speaker 4: Before it and Brennan was like, you're the fucking directed man,
- 1:52:17Speaker 4: just the way he starts this audio grab.
- 1:52:19Speaker 1: I just thought, I can't not play it, and we'll
- 1:52:21Speaker 1: fade it down when we need to.
- 1:52:24Speaker 8: I have the advantage of being the executive producer of
- 1:52:27Speaker 8: the show, so the people who work on the crew
- 1:52:31Speaker 8: probably you know, work a little bit faster and because
- 1:52:34Speaker 8: I'm on the floor directing, although I kind of lost
- 1:52:38Speaker 8: that leverage when the show got you know, got canceled,
- 1:52:40Speaker 8: because maybe they were going to be able a job
- 1:52:42Speaker 8: at the end of it. Anyways, the back of experience
- 1:52:47Speaker 8: and to put a rather unrealistic demand of speed on
- 1:52:52Speaker 8: the crew and and love to work that way. It
- 1:52:54Speaker 8: requires that you're prepared and then you know what you're
- 1:52:57Speaker 8: doing and that your next what your next shot is
- 1:52:59Speaker 8: going to be. But I think the crew really responds
- 1:53:02Speaker 8: to that, that sort of sense of it being a
- 1:53:04Speaker 8: lot of work, except.
- 1:53:07Speaker 6: You know, balanced by the fact that you feel confident
- 1:53:11Speaker 6: in what you're doing. But yeah, we had a lot
- 1:53:14Speaker 6: to do.
- 1:53:14Speaker 8: I mean, the difference between this show and other shows
- 1:53:18Speaker 8: is almost here every shot was a new scene we
- 1:53:23Speaker 8: were doing.
- 1:53:24Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so he does that, right, Yeah, So he
- 1:53:31Speaker 1: just talked for how hard The episode.
- 1:53:32Speaker 3: Wass goes for another like forty seconds, and I've got a.
- 1:53:34Speaker 1: Part two that goes another two minutes. But what I'll
- 1:53:36Speaker 1: summarize for you is that he just talked. Then you
- 1:53:39Speaker 1: heard him say about how every everything, it's like every
- 1:53:42Speaker 1: shot is a new scene.
- 1:53:44Speaker 7: Right.
- 1:53:45Speaker 1: But then in the second part he talks about how
- 1:53:49Speaker 1: it's just he just reused the same shots over and
- 1:53:52Speaker 1: over again. But that was just a little bit older
- 1:53:54Speaker 1: and a little bit older my signature, Matthew, Yeah, he's
- 1:53:57Speaker 1: still Yeah.
- 1:54:00Speaker 4: Just the contradictions, the complete unawareness and contradictions. It'd be
- 1:54:05Speaker 4: like me after hell have we doing this now?
- 1:54:06Speaker 1: Like eight years? It'd be like me me still thinking
- 1:54:09Speaker 1: that I never ruined anything for Reese and I never
- 1:54:11Speaker 1: interrupted people, you know what I mean? At some point
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: you have to grow as a human being and acknowledge
- 1:54:16Speaker 1: your own shortcomings. And that man, after ten seasons on
- 1:54:19Speaker 1: the show, still never got there.
- 1:54:21Speaker 3: I'm working that out after eleven years of marriage or short.
- 1:54:25Speaker 1: It's not like that.
- 1:54:27Speaker 3: You've got the snip that too.
- 1:54:29Speaker 1: You got the snips, So you've got the shortcomings now, yeah, yeah,
- 1:54:32Speaker 1: the no comings. Well, well we did talk about the
- 1:54:35Speaker 1: logistics of that. We'll talk about it off air. Yeah,
- 1:54:37Speaker 1: you know, so you know, we talk about your medical stuff.
- 1:54:41Speaker 1: I do have a great story, not sexual, but I
- 1:54:43Speaker 1: do have a great story about your dad though, that
- 1:54:45Speaker 1: we'll talk about offair as well.
- 1:54:46Speaker 3: God, what a tea is considering the context of what.
- 1:54:50Speaker 1: Talking about your seed, your lineage, it was there. It
- 1:54:53Speaker 1: all made sense in my brain. I mean, I think
- 1:54:55Speaker 1: what we need to do is like like I said,
- 1:54:57Speaker 1: it's a little it's a little un ceremonial or that's
- 1:55:02Speaker 1: even a word. We still have like the rank we
- 1:55:05Speaker 1: have to do, we have to rank this season. Yeah,
- 1:55:08Speaker 1: I think we'll do like a special like series wrap up.
- 1:55:12Speaker 3: Yeah, well we've spoken about that. We've put out that
- 1:55:14Speaker 3: we want, you know, people to contribute moments.
- 1:55:17Speaker 1: Yeah, we have.
- 1:55:18Speaker 4: We have told people that I would do a mail
- 1:55:20Speaker 4: bag this episode, but it's getting a little long in
- 1:55:22Speaker 4: the two, so we'll do a mail bag.
- 1:55:24Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we do a mailbag special after the ranks
- 1:55:27Speaker 1: are around the rank somewhere, So yeah, we'll do We'll
- 1:55:29Speaker 1: do a mail bag. And yeah, we'd obviously love to
- 1:55:31Speaker 1: get in some of the some really good mail bag coming. Yeah,
- 1:55:35Speaker 1: and you know, I'd love to get some thoughts on
- 1:55:37Speaker 1: you know, members of the team that aren't here, so
- 1:55:39Speaker 1: rece Lincoln, Jos Craig Jacob, like people that have been
- 1:55:43Speaker 1: on the show. I'd love to get as many as
- 1:55:44Speaker 1: we can fit in the studio. Yeah, and whole spoiler guys.
- 1:55:47Speaker 3: You can have to sit each other's laps.
- 1:55:49Speaker 1: Fine again again spoilerleg guys, we might get our first
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: girl on the show against that. Stay tuned well as
- 1:55:59Speaker 1: long as there's no touching it.
- 1:56:00Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:56:00Speaker 3: Episode two hundred and sixty five feels like it should
- 1:56:04Speaker 3: be three hundred and sixty five because then it's sort
- 1:56:06Speaker 3: of like a full loop you know, sort of circle
- 1:56:08Speaker 3: around it.
- 1:56:10Speaker 1: But it wasn't that the.
- 1:56:13Speaker 3: Three to sixty five days, not three hundred sixty five
- 1:56:15Speaker 3: three sixty degrees.
- 1:56:17Speaker 1: The urban myth for a while is that they said
- 1:56:18Speaker 1: that's what the Simpsons were going to do. Though Simpsons
- 1:56:20Speaker 1: are going to We're going to stop at three hundred
- 1:56:21Speaker 1: and sixty five episodes, so that there was one episode
- 1:56:24Speaker 1: for every day of the year. But now they're at
- 1:56:26Speaker 1: like seven hundred or something. Oh, really, Jesus, they did
- 1:56:29Speaker 1: end the show.
- 1:56:30Speaker 4: Did you still ten years ago?
- 1:56:32Speaker 3: There's just yeah, parts of his grade ten story a
- 1:56:35Speaker 3: year ten sorry, grade four story that we haven't again,
- 1:56:38Speaker 3: did you hear?
- 1:56:38Speaker 1: Apparently they ended the show. They ended the Simpsons, but
- 1:56:41Speaker 1: it was the opening episode of the newer season. They
- 1:56:44Speaker 1: pretended like it was the finale episode, and it's like
- 1:56:46Speaker 1: Bart turned eleven, and it was this whole like what.
- 1:56:50Speaker 3: It was was at work the other day and there's
- 1:56:52Speaker 3: there's we're in the studio here and this in the
- 1:56:54Speaker 3: TV in the corner. It's on mute, but it come
- 1:56:56Speaker 3: up and said the end of the Simpsons, and it
- 1:56:58Speaker 3: says but then it was like the season finale, it
- 1:57:00Speaker 3: goes the series wraps and goes blah blah blah season finale,
- 1:57:03Speaker 3: and I'm like, you're contradicting yourself the way they'd worded it.
- 1:57:06Speaker 1: And yeah, it was actually it was actually the first
- 1:57:07Speaker 1: episode of the new season. But it opens with like
- 1:57:10Speaker 1: an animated Conan O'Brien being like, and here we are
- 1:57:12Speaker 1: and then doing like the Game of Thrones finale, doing
- 1:57:15Speaker 1: a show like that, and it was the finale of
- 1:57:17Speaker 1: The Simpsons, and then you cut to scenes and stuff
- 1:57:19Speaker 1: and it's Bart finally turning eleven.
- 1:57:21Speaker 3: And then my kids recently watched the one hundred and
- 1:57:23Speaker 3: thirty eight episode spectacular you know, back, and they show
- 1:57:26Speaker 3: the history of the show that never happened, which convinced
- 1:57:29Speaker 3: me for years that I had never seen season one
- 1:57:32Speaker 3: and seasons Yeah, I remember them looking that bad. Oh wow,
- 1:57:35Speaker 3: and this show was really lame and didn't actually make
- 1:57:37Speaker 3: you laugh and blah b no, it had.
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: They did have something before that that was kind of
- 1:57:41Speaker 1: like Rick and Morty did. Yeah, and it used to
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: be on the US. It used to be shorts on
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: a on a talk show, the Kathy Something Show or
- 1:57:51Speaker 1: whatever it was. That's where the Simpsons started. Little shorts
- 1:57:54Speaker 1: on this on this like late night show or whatever.
- 1:57:58Speaker 1: Yea podcast was simpon Santa's Will Helper episode is episode one? Yeah,
- 1:58:03Speaker 1: which is it really?
- 1:58:03Speaker 3: Which feels very strange. Yeah, that's the episode of the show.
- 1:58:07Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen this heaps.
- 1:58:09Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I never missed it. I never missed it.
- 1:58:11Speaker 1: Didn't they recall the shock therapy episode. You can't actually
- 1:58:13Speaker 1: watch that anymore anywhere really, but they'll get Electric Therapy
- 1:58:16Speaker 1: with Michael Jackson one.
- 1:58:18Speaker 3: Oh really, I don't know why that one not existingly
- 1:58:21Speaker 3: but like on Disney class or something, which is bullshit.
- 1:58:24Speaker 1: Because that's one of the best episodes. It's pretty great. Yeah, Lisa,
- 1:58:28Speaker 1: it's your birthday. Happy birthday, Lisa.
- 1:58:35Speaker 3: Well, that's the season final, the series finale of of

- 1:58:40Speaker 3: next episode with the season finale of season three of
- 1:58:45Speaker 3: Stargate Atlantis.

- 1:58:50Speaker 3: One hell of a tease from you like that you're
