Stargate

Hey Guys!
Wow....last night until like midnight, I watch Stargate SG-1!

Stargate is about some people finding a piece of old, ancient technology. It's huge, circular, ancient, and its a stargate. The stargate comes with a DHD - or dial home device. This device makes it possible for you to punch in a coordinates(7 symbols) to another stargate....across the galaxy. The stargate - when opened- creates an artificial wormhole and transfers you lightyears away. On the other side of the stargate there is a totally diffrent world. They make many friends, but find a horrible enemy. The goa'ld (symboites that are about 6 inches long and embed themselves in a host aka humans) are trying to destory the torae - or earth people - people from earth are very powerful and threatening. Many episodes are about SG-1 (Jack O'neil, Daniel Jackson, Samantha Carter, and Teal'c) battling with the Goal'd. Will they ever conquer them?

Description of characters:

Jack O'Neil - Jack is the leader of his team. He is great at strategies and always follows one rule: Don't leave anyone behind. Jack is almost the hero of SG-1. When he was recruited to be a part of the Stargate Command or Facility, he had just faced a horrible tragedy. His only son, Charlie (8yrs old) had accidentally shot himself with Jack's gun. His wife blamed him and divorced him. Jack retired until he was (as i said before) recruited into Stargate Command. O'Neil and Carter are a little bit in love, but they can't get to serious because of the rules - a military officer can't have a relationship with another military officer - or something like that. Jack is the arm of the team (fighter shoot 'em up kinda guy)

Samantha Carter - a brillant scientist and military officer understands the Stargate better than anyone on the base. Her dad, a tokrah (a good kind of Goal'd) almost died of cancer when he was given a symbioses to heal him. She has almost devoted her life to the Stargate program - it was her dream since a child to go into space, or visit other planets. She is the mind of the team.

Daniel Jackson - Daniel lived on a different planet, Abydoes for a long time because he was married to a local there - Sharae.
When she was captured by the Goal'd he returned to Earth and seeked helped. He joined SG-1, not only for search of his wife, but also to help understand cultures and civilizations. He knows MANY languages and is Fascinated by different cultures and whatnot. He also enjoys studying the 'gods' (did i mention the Goal'd slave their people and pretend their gods? well yeah...)
he loves learning things from them and other cultures. He and Jack often disagree with eachother because Daniel is very detailed and things like that.... :P He is the 'eyes' and 'mouth' (negotiator) of the team.

Teal'c - Teal'c is from a different planet entirely. He used to be the Prime Officer of one of the Goal'ds or gods. He hated the things the Apophis (a 'god') did. When Jack, Carter, and Daniel were captured he turn against the Goal'd and freed the people. He joined SG-1 and very faithful. Also, he is a Jaffa. He posses a Goal'd as well, but it is in his gut instead of wrapped around his neck, the 'thing' inside keeps him very healthy, but does not control is body.

There are a few other important people such as, General Hammond (the guy in charge of the base), Dr. Fraiser (a great doctor who takes excellent care of her patients if their enemies of not) and the guys who dial the stargate and such.

All in all, Stargate SG-1 is a GREAT TV show and is one of my favorites (i'll do reviews on Stargate Atlantis and LOST later)
hope this info was helpful and you enjoyed it thoroughly.

Catch ya l8r!
