Just finishing s3e10: Forever in a Day and that episode has broke but also healed something in me (somehow?)

Jack: “give it a week. You’ll miss me.”

Daniel: “ah yes. All the salty bad tempered insults. All the illogical arguments..”

How the whole episode was in Daniel’s mind. The mind trippyness of it all. The death of Sha’re. “You did the right thing Teal'c”.

“It was a pleasure doing business with you… Dr. Jackson.” The scene with sam and Daniel with the pen. Just Jack not wanting Daniel to leave. Daniel coming back to the SGC. All of it.

Am I the only one wondering if Michael called Seth “Dad” at least once as a joke while filming this episode?

I’m in love with gay men

As a cis- generally het woman, this is a problem. I don’t mean in, like, a fetishism sort of way. I genuinely always fall for gay men, always have. Even as a kid with my cartoon crushes in the coded ‘90s language. I didn’t realize it until recently when a good male friend and I were talking about childhood crushes and he starts to laugh and says: “I’m going to hold your hand when I say this…truly heterosexual men DO exist. I know you’ve probably never met one”.
Yeah, so apparently my crushes were coded '90s dudes who all had the same build and generally nerdy (but bad-assed) aesthetic. Who were all bumblingly oblivious to the ridiculiously beautiful women who fawned over them. Who either married one special woman, literally not of this planet, or they never married at all. (This is cliff note sof my dude’s essay, there was more) No, I didn’t have a great deal of success in dating in high school or college. Yes, I did think it was my fault and that I was / am inherently unattractive. The guys I did marry? Not straight. One of them wasn’t even a man and didn’t know it at the time.
This bisexual asshole sat there and gave me 4 years of therapy in a fifteen minute bit that started with Billy the Blue Power Ranger, Daniel Jackson from Stargate, and Milo J. Thatch. Now two questions remain: 1) Why don’t I find hetero men attractive? and 2)What’s all this with Dick Grayson then?

S1.E16 “Enigma”

Written by Katharyn Powers, Dean Devlin, Roland Emmerich

Rating: 5/10

Synopsis: On their first visit to a new planet, SG-1 finds it subject to totally destructive volcanic activity and saves ten natives, the Tollan, a far more technologically advanced society. Their leader Omoc isn’t grateful, nor interested in such a primitive race as the earthlings or any of the ‘even more primitive’ planets which are prepared to host them. Only one Tollan, Narim, shows an active interest in life on earth, especially in captain Samantha Carter and the cat Schrodinger she gives him, explaining his planet was destroyed after the Tollan supplied an unlimited energy source to a primitive neighboring planet which abused it for a cataclysmic weapon. Meanwhile, the White House authorized NID colonel Maybourne to take charge over the Tollan for military purposes, exactly Omoc’s nightmare.

Characters:

Colonel Jack O’Neill: 

Captain Sam Carter: Carter gets flirted with and makes out with her first alien. At least it was consensual. 

Dr Daniel Jackson: 

Teal’c: 

Standout Moments: 

The Nox: Honestly my favourite part of this episode is when the Nox show up at the end. 10/10 they came and saved the day. 

Nitpick Moments:

Carter makes a Shrodingers Cat joke to an alien. Babe you are a freaking astrophysicist, Captain in the airforce, all around Badass. But you forgot this man doesn’t know Earth references. 

Shippy Moments: 

N/A

Overall Comments: 

The first ever alien has a crush on Carter episode. I kind of find his age makes this a little unbelievable. I know she saves him from certain death, and Tapping is beautiful - no doubt about it - but this 30 something man is willing to go against his peoples wishes so he can flirt with her. 

The concept of this episode is pretty good, like refugee aliens that need to be rehomed. One of the first truly more advanced species, who for a seemingly unknown reason are disinterested bordering on aggressive towards us. But if I am being honest I find it quite boring, or possibly it’s that it focuses so heavily on a ship that I don’t vibe with. 

Either way, it’s not my favourite, very middle of the pile. 

I posted this in 2022 for the 25th anniversary of the pilot of Stargate SG1, so it includes clips only from “Children of the Gods.” I got the clips from instagram user @stargatescenepacks, who is awesome! I posted my own scenepacks for Stargate 1994 on her page, so if you are an IG editor, you can give her a follow over there! (Or, for my scenepacks, feel free to ask me about them. Same thing with all the audios. Unless specified, I made them and I have a video with all the beats marked, so that they are really easy to edit to, and I’m happy to share!)

[ID: a fan edit of Daniel Jackson in the SG1 pilot. “Confident,” by Justin Bieber and Chance the rapper plays in the foreground. The edit starts with a black screen, with white text reading, “Dr. Daniel Jackson, in episode 1 season 1, by your local SG1 simp,” while the song lyrics are going “hypnotized by the way she moves…” We then cut to Daniel, each clip synced to the background beat. Daniel’s intended to look sexy or badass in all the clips. The edit ends with a clip of Daniel putting on his sunglasses which looks, to be honest, cool as shit. The edit loops. End ID]

S1.E15 “Cor-ai”

Written by Tom J. Astle, Dean Devlin, Roland Emmerich

Rating: 3/10

Synopsis: SG-1 travel to a planet where Teal'c is recognised as once having been head Jaffa to Apophis. He is arrested for the murder of a villager and put on trial for his life. Then other Jaffa attack the village. Will SG-1 be able to save Teal'c and prove that he has changed allegiance?

Characters:

Colonel Jack O’Neill: the only one here with any common sense. It is not a good idea to let your people become tied up in the laws of other worlds.

Captain Sam Carter: is just kind of hanging out.

Dr Daniel Jackson: Daniel is so eager to participate in other worlds culture and traditions, it often straight up blinds him to really really bad ideas.

Teal’c: this is a very Tealc heavy episode, he has some great moments and we really commit to who he is. He knows he is guilty and is willing to die for his actions. This isn’t the first time we have seen him do this, it is hard but true to his character. 

Standout Moments: 

Jack knows Teal’c is Guilty: There is a moment in this episode where O’Niell asks why Tealc admits to his guilt, before he even told him. Tealc responds that Jack already knew, which is why he instructs him not to talk about it. It develops into this great scene between RDA & Judge where they argue about their roles and assumed guilt over their actions as soldiers. Very powerful scene. 

America Will Not Interfere: This is such a hilarious moment, the absolute bombastic side-eye that Carter and O’Niell shoot each other. I was cackling.

Nitpick Moments:

As if the US Government is going to let their only alien ally die in a trial on another planet. It would be such a waste. Seems highly unrealistic. 

Shippy Moments: 

N/A

Overall Comments: 

This is an episode I often skipped upon re-watch, it is much slower paced than the majority of season one with a large focus on the morality of Teal’cs actions. In previous watches I haven’t connected overmuch with Teal’c preferring the other members storylines. I tend to gravitate towards the more found family/shippy aspects of the show of which this episode has very little. During this rewatch I am trying to really pay attention the gradual set up of the core fours backstories so I have paid more attention to this episode. 

This is one of the first episodes in which I feel that Christopher Judge has been able to spread his wings. His scenes with RDA in the early trial are particularly well done. We also see the first time Teal’c truly says no to O’Niell. Refusing to go back with, as he commits to letting these people put him on trial.

S1.E12 “Fire and Water” 

Written by Brad Wright, Katharyn Powers, Dean Devlin

Rating: 5.5/10

Synopsis: O'Neill, Carter, and Teal'c return through the Stargate, shell-shocked and distressed, to announce that Daniel Jackson was killed. But Jackson was captured by the last survivor of an aquatic race, who planted false memories in the other members of SG1. Can the team remember and return to rescue Daniel?

Characters:

Colonel Jack O’Neill: Jacks grief is explicit and intense. More so than the others. This was a good choice, as he was the closest to Daniel and has also lost the most in recent years. 

Captain Sam Carter: Tapping really whips out the acting the episode. A big show of emotion and tears as she grieves the loss of her friend and coworker.

Dr Daniel Jackson: poor confused Daniel. Out here translating for his life. 

Teal’c: both grieving and confused.

Standout Moments: 

I love getting these glimpses into Jack and Daniel’s homes. 

Nitpick Moments:

If they say Omoroca one more time I am going to go insane. 

Shippy Moments: 

the first hug! Jack hugs Carter when she cries after the hypnosis session. Comfort abound. 

Overall Comments: 

Daniel Dies Count: 1

The use of grief in this episode to mask the real experience they had on the planet is really interesting. The way the implanted memories seem to stop them from even talking to each other about what happened. Ultimately slowing down their realisation that Daniel could still be alive. 

Daniel’s on planet task, try and remember everything he has ever learned about Babylon under the threat of death. 

This thing is, I feel like all of this could have been avoided if the blue alien guy had just asked Daniel. Daniel would have gone home and researched. He could have come back with the info, and they could have gained an ally. The most interesting part for me is just SG-1 working through their grief and realisation Daniel is okay.

S1.E11 “Bloodlines”

Written by Mark Saraceni, Jeff King, Dean Devlin

Rating: 7/10

Synopsis: It is time for Teal'c’s son Rya'c to have his Prim'ta. Can Teal'c stop his son from being implanted with a Goa'uld and becoming a slave to Apophis?

Characters:

Colonel Jack O’Neill: Jack is really loyal above all else. 

Captain Sam Carter: Carter is just straight willing to lie for Teal’c - not reveal his family and try and get back to Chulak. 

Dr Daniel Jackson: Daniel goes dark this episode. Taking revenge on the Goa’uld. 

Teal’c: Finally! The Teal’c backstory episode. His family, his people, his planet. 

Standout Moments: 

• Jack Gets in Trouble: we have seen O’Neill be insubordinate in a number of situations. We have seen him lie about more than one mission. Seeing Hammond finally pull rank and force him to tell the truth was a tiny but satisfying. 

Nitpick Moments:

• Teal’c just has his old uniform in his closet? Like every day he just chooses between his Apophis uniform or his SG-1 uniform. Hilarious. 

Shippy Moments: 

N/A

Overall Comments: 

I have been waiting for this episode. A chance to really sink our teeth into Teal’c character. We get so much of him this episode and it really begins to flesh out his character. Tragic to find out he left his wife and child behind in his bid for freedom. And the idea he has kept it all to himself for so long out of fear the team wouldn’t trust him. 

I loved the loyalty shown by the team here. Just immediately ready to lie and back up Teal’c once they understand what he has on the line. It’s a dynamic that we have seen slowly building, the trust and devotion to each other. 

The complicated dynamic between Teal’c and his wife. Knowing that in so many ways Teal’c is the right, that he is fighting for the right outcome, for the right reasons. And at the same time his wife is right, she has lost everything and worked tirelessly within her framework to provide a better life for the sick son. 

Bra-tac is a real one. The best one. Can’t wait to see him again.

Hi, I’m Daniel Jackson. No formalities necessary. I specialize in archeology, anthropology, and philology (the study of language over time).

I’ll mainly be posting work-related content and transcriptions of some of my journal entries.

If you see any posts that embody me, link them here. I’ll reblog them. I’m curious to see how well you all know me.

The boss has allowed some leeway in our communication so long as nothing leaves these walls. I hate to be a buzzkill, but you know firsthand how it is.

This is an RP blog for Daniel Jackson from the Stargate franchise.

I lack Daniel’s smarts. I’ll answer as best I can.

I’m accepting textpost submissions (journal entries/random thoughts) that read as something Daniel would write. Posts can span Stargate 1994 – SG1 1.11. I’ll update as I progress.

Likes from dnjkn.

Okay this counts me as art posting for February 2026. I did complete these (or at least start) in February but didn’t post them.
