                Mark Kennedy: secret policeman's sideline as corporate spy

                "It also reveals something about Kennedy himself: with an apparent view to making money out of his access, the undercover officer used cryptic names derived from a science fiction television series, Stargate."
                Documents seen by the Guardian suggest Kennedy put careful thought into what he would do after leaving the police. In February 2010 – a month before resigning – he set up Tokra Limited, at an address in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire.

                The fanciful name could have derived from a science fiction television series, Stargate. Kennedy might well have seen parallels between his company's mission and the plot, which features the Tok'ra as an alien race symbiotically inhabiting human hosts. In their human guise, the Tok'ra fight a powerful, evil race who seek to control and destroy the planet.

                  Just started watching Bones, and noticed Stargate is mentioned in the episode 'The superhero in the alley', when Hodgins sums up nerd stuff: 'Star Wars, Star Trek, Stargate, Battlestar Galactica...

                    I think they just needed a SciFi reference or maybe one of the writers always wanted a Stargate reference. But really, they could have brought it up in a more sensible way.
                    I concur

                      Dan Shea was one of the prison guards in this week's Human Target episode, Cool Hand Guerrero. (Seen briefly towards the end of the episode.)

                            The FX show Archer mentioned Stargate yesterday

                            Malory: Effective immediately I'm promoting Cyril to field agent
                            Archer: Sounds great, best of luck...
                            Malory: Where do you think you're going?
                            Archer: Oh sorry, I’ve got to get back to Earth before the Stargate closes
                            Malory: Get back in here!"
                            Archer: Mother, the chevrons are locking!

                            Not entirely accurate gate function, but a mention anyway.

                                The History Channel program Ancient Aliens has mentioned the shafts in the Great Pyramid were Stargates to the Constellation Orion and the Star Sirius because they are supposed to be aligned with them.
