Redemption. Rocks.

Now this was one of the best episodes/arcs of Stargate history.

Nice to see the return of SIMMY!!!!!!!!!! <swoon> and also Ryac.

It was just a great opener. And David Hewlett was a major bonus!

This and Within the Serpents Grasp are amongst the best of Stargate.

Great season opener. Was wondering where Drey'auc (?) had gotten to. Shame she had to die though....

Loving the X-302 as well. Shame it doesn't feature more often.

Because its always broken, haha... Well not 'broken', but not working how they want it to work, ahh, nvm, you know what i mean. I was touched when we saw the sad look on Teal'c's face

Redemption 1+2 rocks, the McCay and Carter thing was great,the X302 was great,and i will agree with an earlyer post by Jennifier, this and "within the sepents grasp is by far some of the best work MGM have done,hope season eight lives up to this"LETS KEEP ARE FINGERS CROSSED" Its a strange thing us Humans do for luck (lol)

From what i've read, imo, the premiere(S8) looks interesting to me

Anubis · #7 June 22nd, 2004, 01:10 PM

Good bonding between McKay and Carter. And the rise of Anubis

I remember watching the episode for the first time (without big spoilers) and thinking "Boring, we already covered that in Serpent's song". Still, it's one of my most-watched episodes of S6 (that's what you get for having Revelations - Redemption1 - Redemption2 - Decent on tape in that order

)

I loved to see McKay back, didn't have any poblems with Jonas because by the time I watched it I knew MS would be returning for S7, and (talking about Pt 2 here) I would have never guessed the solution to how to stop the gate from blowing up Earth (although I have heard that even twelve-year olds could come up with the solution

)

Did Anubis build that device with his Ancient knowledge or did the Ancients already build it.

Anubis · #10 July 11th, 2004, 10:38 AM

It was an ancient device so I'm guessing the ancients built it and Anubis just located it and used it against us

Selmak · #11 July 15th, 2004, 11:23 PM

I guess after it was destroyed it was possible for him to rebuild the device with his Ancient knowledge.

There was a great scene where ry'ac was beating teal'c.

I noticed Anubis' hologram was as tall as the stargate, but Anubis himself is only about as tall as Daniel. I think he has issues with his height.

He does. He thinks he above everyone else.

It's probably projected larger as it goes through, although I haven't a clue why!

*I am above everyone else!

Good opening episode.
Lots of by-play between McKay and Carter, and it was nice to see Rya'c and Bra'tac again.

Could be to make himself seem more powerful to us and other humans. Camera shots that make people taller show their power over those who are looking up to him etc.

I liked this episode alot - the episode started off slow but got going. I also felt the change in direction, I mean the end of Season 5 did slump abit, and this started off great.

Seeing McKay in Part I and Part II, you can see why the producers bought him into Atlantis, he has changed since 48 Hours and was great in this episode.

PugGate · #18 May 6th, 2005, 08:10 PM

I liked it when Teal'c, Bra'tac, and Ry'ac ringed down and the guards said, 'identify yourselves," and Teal'c starts shooting everybody.

"You're creeping me out McKay."

I wonder if the Ancient weapon is powered by a ZPM?

McKay: "What's the little alien guy <Jonas> doing?"

I would've thought that the Airforce would've taken the Abydos gate before they would rent the Giza gate from the Russians

valaCB · #19 May 14th, 2005, 04:58 AM

excellent epi and so is part 2

QuiGonJohn · #20 June 8th, 2005, 09:10 AM

I liked the season opener. Will watch part 2 tonight. They showed a lot of Jonas early on, then he seemed to be forgotten about for a while. But then they did go back to him.
