The most sad episode of SGA

The Shrine and also Before I sleep. They both were bittersweet, with great character moments. Both had happy endings but still, there were really sad moments in both of them.

I actually found Vegas to be pretty uplifting to a degree.
When presented with a choice he could affect, Shep, AU version or not STILL chose to "do the right thing", even at the cost of his own life. He got the "hero" moment that was constantly dodged in most of SGA. (insofar as having to PAY for it)
I think one of the "saddest" eps of SGA was "The Shrine", not so much in content (it got blown 9 ways from hell to a degree), but to see the degredation of a man who's only percieved strength was his mind, and to see him cling to the only person he see's a a "friend" while losing that showed a *potential* depth of character that was quite suprising in many ways for SGA.sigpicALL THANKS TO THE WONDERFUL CREATOR OF THIS SIG GO TO R.I.G.A lie is just a truth that hasn't gone through conversion therapy yetThe truth isn't the truth

I'm afraid I can't see it myself - I found Beckett's funeral far more touching, despite his daft death.

I was sad watching "Sunday", but I lost it watching Sheppard at Carson's memorial. His eyes........*sniff*
Probably "The Shrine" too. Although they broke the drama up with the "beer on the pier" scene.
The scene in "Outcast" where Sheppard is standing next to his father's coffin.....that made me sad. Anyone who's been through that can relate.

Of all the episodes of SG1 and SGA, I have seen Heroes just one time when it aired and never again. It was heartbraking good.Heightmeyer's Lemming -- still the coolest Lemming of the forum
Proper Stargate Rewatch -- season 10 of SG-1

SG1 I'm with the most here "Heroes II" was heartbreaking *sniff*.
For SGA ...
Sunday, Doppelganger (I think I'm with Falcon Horus here ), Ghost in the Machine, The Shrine.
Especially The Shrine is one episode for me that I can barely stand without a box of tissues. DH was brilliant in his role and his acting here reminds me always on my Mom, who had dementia at the end of her life, as my Dad had Alzheimer (funny gene pool, huh?).
As much as I will subscribe that "Vegas" is the best episode all over the franchise and I can understand why some are crying at the end I never saw that Shep died, he was pretty close, true, but (maybe the fanfic-writer in me ) for me he made it somehow.

While The Shrine is one of my favorite episodes (minus a few seconds there at the end), I would never consider it sad. It was dramatic and well done, but I guess I just don't see it as a sad episode. It was more uplifting in that we got to see how the team and Rodney's sister cared for him. Plus The Beer on The Pier scene, it just makes me smile. Not cry.sigpic
