How many times has Daniel been in the infirmary so far?
Warner is just a tad annoying in this one. Janet, Jack, and Sam are trapped in that room, Janet is struggling to speak and to help Sam, and Warner still keeps (almost condescendingly) dismissing what she's saying even though he has no idea what to do. I'm glad Sam listens to her and proves that Janet had the solution all along.
Also... those slugs dripping out of their ears make me shiver. Why, oh, why do they have to keep poking them once they're dead? ;p

His eyelids move.

...No, really, I'm grabbing a notepad now. Otherwise it's going to bug me.

I hate the way that this show often dumbs down a recurring character to make the plot work. They do it all the time. At least Warner's there--in later seasons Janet must work 24/7 because you don't see any other doctors.

Janet's awesome though so when she shows up you know you won't be disappointed.
Facebook post about Alexis Cruz and the Audiobook he's done. If you're a fan of Alexis and his work - you'll love it. Book 1 and 2 are there now. The second one is brilliant, but I can't vouch for the first one (not having heard it), but I'm sure it's just as good, if not better.

Overall I think this is a strong character episode for MS. He does fantastic, but one of the major complaints I always have watching this ep is how quick all the doctors are to write him off as schizophrenic. That's not really how it goes right? Cause that seems like a quick conclusion after one psychotic episode... :/sigpic

Since 2013 this episode has lost some of its appeal to me. I used to love it but now that I have a parent who has regular auditory and visual hallucinations (which break my heart every time cause there's nothing we can do about it -- side effect of Parkinson's Disease medication) I don't find it as likeable as I used to. It simply hits too close to home.
However, I will still say that Michael Shanks did an amazing job. I still like the idea Machello created to fight the Goa'uld and how he chose to distribute it. To learn of the Linvris, a minor league of System Lords, and to see Janet, while impaired by the little buggers, still able to come through with an idea to save all their asses.
What I'm still slightly annoyed by, however, is Richard Dean Anderson. When they're in the isolation chamber, infected as all hell, there's a wideshot of all three of them. Carter goes to check on O'Neill and Fraiser, and when the camera turns back with Rick in the background he seems to realise "Oh wait, we're still filming, I'm still supposed to look like I'm succumbing to the effects of the little buggers". For me, that moment felt a little jarring. Either intentional or unintentional, I didn't feel like Rick's acting was all in.
How would you rate SG-1's "Legacy?"
Excellent
Good
Fair
Poor
Terrible
Despite being uncomfortabel on the subject of mental illness, i'm still giving it an "Excellent" cause the story and acting certainly deserve that.Heightmeyer's Lemming -- still the coolest Lemming of the forum

Like FH, I too have family members who have diseases with hallucinations. Honestly the comparasion didn't register with me until FH mentioned it. Mental illness episodes seem to go together with science fiction. Honestly I was more interested with the mechanical bugs than Shanks acting insane. I always wanted to see more of Machello's inventions and a little disappointed he is never mentioned again. While I loved the solution, Carter must be the worst medic ever and we learn why Fraiser is CMO and not Warner It is a fair.Originally posted by aretood2Jelgate is right
