Joe Mallozzi stated in his blog that the evil asgard will not be returning this year. They were going to be slated for a season 6 episode "Revenge" but with no season 6, comes no evil asgard.

Listen question;

BAMSR seems so long ago I can hardly believe it aired in 2008 but my favourite moment has to be when the planet blew up, simply for it's "OMFG THAT WAS COOL" factor.

Great podcast this week guys. Quite looking forward to these "surprise" interviews David mentioned.

There have been several moments this year that i just loved about Stargate. But 2 stand out above most. My number 1 moment however was the intense way "The Lost Tribe" of Asgard were introduced into Atlantis. A hyperspace window opening above the ocean surface was one of the coolest things i have seen in Stargate in a long time. The nerves amongst the characters in Altantis as the mysterious ship flew towards the city transpired into me, and i was genuinely nervous at the arrival of this new enemy. The way they flew in, got what they wanted, and flew out so clinically with the Atlantis team helpless to do anything about it was a terrific way of introducing them. We saw so many new technologies in about 3 or 4 minutes. And the second moment of Stargate i loved this year was the relatively short scene, with Mitchell and Carter walking across the Arctic ice. The long shots from the helicopter of a tremendous setting with the terrific score playing from Joel Goldsmith is a scene i never tire of watching. It gave SG-1 a true "movie" feel to it.

As the end of the show draws near it makes it harder and harder knowing the show is ending.

Hey guys,

Favourite Stargate moments:
Seeing Jack again in Continuum was an absolute treat, even if it was only briefly. The brevity of his appearance left me feeling kind of unsatisfied, but it was so worth it: "and then there's... cake." And when I first saw Daniel beam down into Atlantis at the start of First Contact, I just couldn't stop smiling! The "nope, we do it for the money" moment with him and Rodney was just gorgeous. Also, on a slightly more personal note, Woolsey doing his thing in Inquisition was fantastic, I'm a law student and have always been bitterly disappointed at the fact that, amongst all the scientists and doctors, there's never been room for lawyers on Atlantis... but now there is! I adore both Elizabeth and Sam but Woolsey is worthy of filling their shoes and his was a very solid contribution to the season.

Also, I don't think of Todd as an "it" at all... He's far too human to be relegated to the status of "creature". But maybe the Wraith soldiers, though? In no way does that mean I don't think they have rights, but I do think of them as "it".

Thanks heaps guys. I'm going through a bit of a rough patch atm and your podcasts always cheer me up. Looking forward to the next one

Definitely the best moment of this past year was the scene between Sheppard and McKay on the Pier in The Shrine. It was the best scene from what was probably the best episode the series has ever had. It showed what these two men mean to each other. Reminded me of SG-1's Need when Jack talked Daniel down and Daniel broke down and cried in Jack's arms. It had the same feel with a nice humorous touch at the end.

On another topic: I have to say you did a terrible National Enquirer act with your story on Captain Vega being gay. My feeling is, WHO CARES??? I've never seen so much written about a character who was so insignificant. As someone wrote somewhere on the forum, I think she had more stories written about her than she had lines in the show. This was particularly a poor story since it came out of Joe Malozzi's blog about relationships, particularly the controversy over McKeller. This was a much more important story than yet another story on a meaningless character.

Note: I'm not saying a gay character is an insignificant development, I'm saying Vega is an insignificant character.

Hopefully I'm not to late to respond, but here's my answer for the listener question;
I've had several stargate moments this year, but here are my top two:
1. Yelling "Oh my gosh it's O'Neill!" in the middle of the midnight Twilight release when Michael Welch showed up. (He played Jack's younger self way back when)
2. Watching Wargames: The Dead Code they open up the movie with two geeks playing a game. As they're playing I kept thinking, "That looks like Stargate Worlds. Look it's a Jaffa!" Then it flashes to the screen of the game they're playing and, it is Stargate worlds!
