Stargate Trivia: Window of Opportunity

We had no idea this episode would become so beloved by fandom and yet, looking back, it’s easy to see why it has. It’s one of those "fun" episodes with a fairly straightforward premise that allows our characters to shine in ways unexpected. Specifically, Jack and Teal’c who, in the past, have relied on Carter and Daniel to handle the science and Ancient translations, and suddenly find themselves having to step into their team members’ shoes.

Yes, it’s our version of Groundhog Day. And yet, in its earliest form, the pitch for this story was very different, much darker in tone. Originally titled Ad Infinitum, it involved the team gating to a planet and becoming trapped in a seemingly endless time loop orchestrated by a dying race seeking to buy more time to come up with a solution to an impending armageddon (which became the backstory of the device’s genesis mentioned in the episode by Malakai). Exec Producer Robert Cooper suggested another spin on the time loop angle and, while I was dubious at first (“Isn’t this Groundhog Day?”I remember asking. “Yeah,”was Rob’s counter.), I was proven wrong. Now, the “Groundhog Day” episode has become a staple of most every genre show.

While there’s a lot to like about this episode, it was the “time off” montage that stands out. And it almost didn’t happen. The episode was timing short, it was clear we would need to come up with some extra scenes, and that gave Exec Producer Brad Wright (@bradtravelers) the opportunity to do something he had always wanted to do: see our characters golfing through the stargate. And so, several scenes were added (they were all scripted, not improvised as some fans assumed): the juggling, Teal’c’s repeated door run-in, Jack riding his bike through the corridors of the SGC, Jack trying his hand at pottery, the golfing through the gate and, oh yes, THE KISS. The latter was my former writing partner Paul Mullie's idea - in his pitch, an opportunity we could not pass up. Note: We made sure to have Jack tender his official resignation before dipping Carter and planting one on her, just to make sure we didn’t catch any flak from our Air Force tech advisors.

One of the first pieces of Stargate-related artwork I put up on my office wall was some concept art from this episode - the stargate itself. As the seasons wore on, so did that original sketch, gradually fading away. My then writing partner mused that once the sketch vanished, it would signal the show's end. It took well over six years but , in the end, he was right.

@Mr_Rebs_ So it's just another recycled, soulless cash-grab made by people too incompetent to create anything new for the franchise? Got it.

[Mark Beaudry @MarkBeaudry3D]

After a week of cheap gimmicks in entertainment Imagine what the Asgard would say about current films!

Good morning Stargate fans!

Just for giggles I put the Star Trek Voyager music over the BC-304 Daedalus animation I made. Fits pretty well. 🤣

Hey Everyone. Our aim is to ship Early Access for UE6 by the end of 2027 and Blueprints will be supported in Early Access and the initial UE6 releases, but deprecated in the future.

Deprecation will mean a feature continues to be available without improvements, then is eventually removed. This timeline will be clearly communicated along with ways to migrate projects to Verse.

We recognize the value that Blueprints brought to UE4 and 5, but we strongly believe that Verse will become a more powerful and capable way to create game logic. We’ve already seen both experienced and new programmers create amazing things with Verse that would be challenging to do with Blueprints.

More details and conversations from us around this to come as UE6 Early Access approaches.

It's time to continue on the Stargate Marathon this evening and get more of the Gate done tonight! #gameart #twitch stream starts at around 9:40pm EST

Right now is the PERFECT time for Stargate to re-enter the world.

All the major sci-fi brands, like Star Trek, Star Wars, Dr Who, and Battlestar Galactica, are either on hiatus or stuck in development hell.

This leaves sci-fi audiences ravenous for some good sci-fi to watch. It's a wide open field for you, @AmazonMGMStudio, @PrimeVideo.

Furthermore, not too much time has passed for the actors. Sure, Richard Dean Anderson is getting up there in age, but he could still have guest appearances. There is still time, but the actors aren't getting any younger.

However, if Stargate goes back into development hell, first of all, we won't see anything happen for another 5 years, minimum. Probably more. And secondly, when it comes back it'll be a reboot for modern audiences with no connection to the current canon, so we lose all hope of seeing our favorite characters again and find out what they've been up to.

Not utilizing this Window of Opportunity™ would be a tragedy on par with not letting Luke, Han and Leia meet on screen in the sequel trilogy.

So now is the time, Amazon. The audience is there, as proven by the worldwide trending tweet storm and the 94,000 viewers of the MGM flyover. Add to that a https://t.co/emgjVeDb1s petition that will probably reach 100,000 soon, and you have all the market research you could want.

The audience is STARVING. The goal is open. The ball is lined up. You're in position. All you have to do is kick the ball.

Awards don't sell games. They're only PR tools to signal to investors, to get more money.

If you want the lights to stay on, in your studio, you have to sell video games that people actually like to buy, play & spend money/time on.

The most unbelievable part isn’t that Justin Trudeau chose Team USA over Team Canada.

It’s that while Canadians are constantly told to BUY CANADIAN, he’s sitting there drinking Lone Star Beer from Texas.

American team.
American beer.
American celebrity.

Meanwhile Canadians get another lecture about supporting local.

The hypocrisy is breathtaking. 🇨🇦
