"Giant Aliens!"

Life Finds a Podcast ·

2023/12/18

Tegan and Silvana watch Season 3, Episode 21, "Crystal Skull". This episode is Daniel-heavy and features Daniel's grandfather, Nick. Nick is not a fan of Daniel's theory about the pyramids, and Daniel doesn't really believe that Nick saw giants after looking into the eyes of a crystal skull he found on earth. Silvana is concerned the CGI in this episode is bad enough that children will judge us if we show it to them now. Like we did our fathers for old Doctor Who and aliens dressed in bubble wrap.

Nobody Puts Bae'tac In A Corner

2023/12/11

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3 Episode 20 "Maternal Instinct" - an episode which is ironically extremely lacking in focus on women. It doesn't even pass the Bechdel test! The SGC get an unexpected visit from Bra'tac and a gravely injured Jaffa reporting that Apophis is back and attacking Chulak looking for the Harsesis child. Luckily Daniel has been keeping his promise to Sha're and looking for Kheb this whole time right? Wrong! We encounter Oma Desala for the first time but she only speaks and

Is Teal'c Batman Now?

Life Finds a Podcast ·

2023/11/27

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 19 "New Ground". The Bedrosians and Optricans are at war over their origin story, and SG-1 ends up in the middle of it. Like in the "Bane" episode, Teal'c's make-up is a little off, and this is an episode that provides an example of how the lack of diversity in the TV and make-up industry can impact the quality of the end product. A lot of the technical details are not great, and parts of this Stargate SG-1 episode drag. Also like in "Bane", Teal'c is

Moral of the Story: Don't Steal Fish

2023/11/13

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 18, "Shades of Grey". In this episode, Jack goes undercover to root out the corruption in the NID who have been stealing technology across the galaxy. Daniel speaks up for Sam when she can't advocate for herself and we love it! What do we wish Teal'c had done this episode? How could this episode have been more meaningful in the context of the show? Where does the Jack/Maybourne fan fiction begin? There is a Seinfeld reference in this episode! How random.

No One Is Getting Any Sandwiches!

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 17, "A Hundred Days". In this episode Jack gets trapped off world with a lady he likes while the SG-C and Sam try to find their way back to him. Silvana finds this episode mostly romantic, surprising both her and Tegan! They both liked a lot about this episode and agree that there are men's consent issues, once again. What is this about, Stargate? Silvana and Tegan take a detour discussing how Mr. Omoroca identifies. The most damning evidence yet for the

Silvana and Tegan watch season 3, episode 16, "Urgo". This is one of their favorite episodes. Dom Deluise guest stars! Stargate SG-1 gets 'tagged' by a more advanced civilization. However a glitch in the AI technology means that SG-1 becomes aware of the tech and annoyed by the childlike personality of Urgo. A solid episode of Stargate SG-1 and one of the first 7's we give in our ratings! Tegan shares some fun facts about the making of this episode. Who couldn't keep a straight face with Dom

2023/10/16

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 15, "Pretense". Alexis Cruz guest starring! Who cares about the rest? Silvana and Tegan discuss another Katharyn Powers episode that they both enjoy! When Skaara/Klorel crash land on the Tollan planet and asks for help, they reach out to Stargate Command to bring SG-1 into the defense of Skaara. They are invited to the triad where a philosophical debate ensues and the stakes are Skaara's body and life. Overall a solid Stargate episode that the ladies

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 14, "Foothold". The SG-C has been invaded and taken over, but Sam escapes to seek help from Maybourn. But then Maybourn is an idiot every day of the week, so things don't go as planned. We are once again introduced to aliens we will never encounter again! Join the discussion via our Linktree.

"It's Equality!" with Sophia from Where's Beverly

2023/09/25

Silvana and Tegan are joined by Sophia from "Where's Beverly" to discuss the ideal Sam Carter relationship. Sophia argues for the Sam/Jack ship while Silvana and Tegan double down on their Sam/Janet ship. All are in agreement that a Sam/Daniel ship is not good and that there is a plethora of lesbian subtext. Sophia gives a good argument, but you decide! Who should Sam have been with, if anyone? Is the way Sam's character written an accurate portrayal? Join the discussion by visiting us on our

Unsubscribing from Marvel: The True Multiverse of...

2023/09/18

Silvana and Tegan discuss why they are no longer watching Marvel movies. They don't watch DC movies either, but they never really started watching them in the first place. We are sick of the bait and switch tactics with trailers and the poorly thought through character arcs between media. We demand better from our media! How does this relate to the writers' strike? Movies discussed in this converstaion include: 1) Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 2) Flash 3) Wandavision and Dr. Strange and the

Tok'ra Rumspringa

2023/09/11

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 13, "The Devil You Know". How is Teal'c not there for the reveal that Apophis is still alive? Silvana and Tegan are confused at the Tok'ra's seeming lack of self-preservation and why there is so much torture in this episode. Sam's flat character arc is even more clear in this episode. We love Dr. Samantha Carter, but where are her flaws? What does growth for Sam look like and what are the challenges she must have as a woman in the Air Force in the 90s? The

2023/09/04

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 12, "Jolinar's Memories" and discuss the SG-1's team going to Hell to rescue Jacob Carter. Trigger warning for SA. Tegan and Silvana are both excited Martuf is in this episode. That's about where the excitement ends. There's an underlying theme/tension of sexual assault that is handled extremely poorly. Peter DeLuise gets to director an episode where someone is not in a bed; congrats, Pete! Peter Williams (Apophis) returns as the Phantom of the Stargate

Check out "Witches, Midwives, and Nurses" for more information about the Catholic Church, witchcraft, and the early years of medical licensing.

Born Sexy Yesterday 2.0

2023/08/14

Silvana and Tegan discuss a concept coined by Pop Culture Detective called "Born Sexy Yesterday". This is a relationship trope that is typically an incredible, exotic woman who is intellectually younger than a more, average human man. Silvana and Tegan discuss the trope, its variations, and some inversions. Some of the media discussed in this episode, besides Stargate of course, are: Twilight 50 Shades of Grey Fifth Element Tron Edward Scissorhands Big No Hard Feelings Rocky Horror Picture Show

In this episode Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 9, "Rules of Engagement". SG-1 stumbles upon a war game run by Apophis recruits that don't know Apophis was defeated.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 3, Episode 8, "Demons". For the first time SG-1 encounters a civilization with Christians! The Middle Ages is still alive and well here. Will Teal'c survive their encounter with it? Of course he will! Jack's jokes were out in full force this episode. Was Jesus just a gao'uld? Was the resurrection just a sarcophagus? Silvana and Tegan are confused by the age of the woman in this local village. Was she just miscast? Join the discussion or check out our website at our

A Waste of Time

Silvana and Tegan discuss Season 3, Episode 7 "Deadman's Switch". It's the most boringest episode of all time. Flash Gordon essentially shows up to tease a potential storyline that gets dropped. Perhaps the worst ratings of an episode, by far? Why doesn't Sam just mention her Tok'ra dad? Join the discussion.
