David's comments confirm everything I felt while listening to Cliff speak! I am also duly impressed that you took the time to find the indisputable answer to my original query. I bow to your diligence and utter perfection, Shadow!

Er... Yes. So I won't ruin your admiration by saying I was looking for something else at the time. It was also Cliff-related, at least.

Proving that you are humble as well as helpful.

...the defeater of the god Yam...

I know that Ba'al is mighty in every way but how hard can it be to defeat someone called "Yam..."

Wasn't Ba'al fabulous in Reckoning I last night? The scene where he cocks his eyebrow is one of my favorites in the whole episode. And he only gets better next week in Reckoning II.

the looks he gives walter and the finger drumming waiting for jack and the way he says "yes" when jack says his line along the lines of "including your sweet self"... my favorite moments in the episode also those wonderfully evil snarkly looks he gives anubis when he's not watching ONLY baal could get away with that

All indications that Ba'al doesn't take himself too seriously, methinks. For a start, he would have said, had he really believed all that god stuff, after "including your sweet self", "Gods cannot die" or something similar. Apophis would have because I think Apophis kinda bought into all that. I think Anubis did (does?), too. The eyebrow is my favourite bit because it conveys such a wide ranging editorial: from "For cryin' out loud, ego much?" to an "Eeeewww, that's gross".

Watched Summit and Last Stand yesterday (first time in ages). I notice when he pulls the symbiote out of the tub, he's very careful not to get his sleeves wet. And what's the sort of staff thing he has in that eppie? Is it a skull? What if his host was a mage or something? That'd be cool.

[emily_reich]

lol... yeah... i agree... he KNOWS he's not a god, and really doesn't take it all too seriously... and he doesn't really buy into anubis either... hence the snarkly expression...

i remember that from last stand too!! he's kinda.... argh, what's the word.... well, not the get down and dirty type....

prissy in a bada$$, thug kinda way

[Qtyled]

Ba'al = Cool.

Yes that's right. Because he doesn't seriously say "I'm a god" and all this nonsense. He has waaay more personality than Anubis and Apophis.

I did indeed enjoy Reckoning last night. No complaints where Baal is concerned, except maybe "more, please!" He DOES have a wonderfully expressive face. And that one scene with the eyebrow twitch was made even better with the slight rolling of his eyes. And that sneer... and that voice...

That’s my complaint, too. Why couldn’t he have been in more of this season? It would have been an improvement. But I guess it gave tptb less time to possibly ruin the character, thus I treasure the moments he is on screen even more.

I just adored the heck out of him in Reckoning pt1. Bet he only gets better in the second part. Definitely solidified his place as my favorite Goa’uld. Though that really wasn’t in question. He’s way more than your typical Goa’uld with all the prancing around and kneel before your god who can never die blah, blah, blah spiel. I enjoyed him more in the Ba’al/Jack scenes than Jack. At least he was being upfront serious about the situation. His expressions during the scenes with Anubis and then when her turned away from him in that last one were great.

Baal is just plain . That can't be said enough.

no it can't, my friend... no it can't

When I was watching Reconning Pt. 1 my mom told me that when ever Baal is on stargate I look like i am gonna fall off my chair.
