Of course, the idea of Goa'uld manipulating humans to make them evolve faster was fascinating and tied up really well with what Nirrti did to the children of Hanka too. It gives Goa'ulds a whole other dimension.
Kynthia annoyed me she was soo... goody-goody and yucky I did love Jack's face when he woke up, pretty much naked to see his friends staring at him. lol, his embarassement was priceless

I agree this one wasn't the best, but on the adequate side. It was still the 1st season and they (the writers & the actors) were still hitting their stride & 'gelling' as a team.
Zats - you know Kynthia reminded me of Sha're in facial features & build. Do you think maybe that's why she rubbed you the wrong way? It was too soon after Sha're's disappearance to have her almost 'twin' appear on the show....
I liked that it gave Jack a chance to learn another way to deal with his pain and grief over Charlie & Sarah. It helped him move away from the suicidal man he was in the movie. (Jack: "Sweet Kynthia, I've learned so much from you. I'll treasure every day of my life because of you.")
And loved the scene where Teal'c says "Perhaps it was a good Goa'uld" and Jack chokes out a laugh, spitting cake crumbs all over the place.
And of course, for anyone who's a Jack/RDA devotee... that short scene after Kynthia seduces him isn't too shabby....Convention Pix Shore Leave ('06 to '09), AT2, AT3, & AT4 ('06, '08, & '09), and Vancouver ('07)

The 'sweet Kynthia, treasure every day, yadda yadda' thing made me wince--but I suppose it is sort of sweet. Maybe it'll come with time. I just have a hard time picturing Jack saying that without copious application of alcohol.
And no, the seduction scene wasn't bad!

Yeah, I agree the writers needed to work on Jack's words a bit to make it sound more Jack-ish... but I guess I was just happy he'd admitted that he was moving on and learning to come to terms with his grief.Convention Pix Shore Leave ('06 to '09), AT2, AT3, & AT4 ('06, '08, & '09), and Vancouver ('07)

Originally posted by Excali5033This is more of a technical comment on the DVD audio layering, but this is the episode I noticed it on. I have to use a audio cable combiner because my television doesn't have two audio jacks. Anyway, in the scene where Jack is watching the video, the music plays as normal, but there is no dialogue. However, if I pull out one of the audio cables, I can hear it. Additionally, if I switch language tracks, I can hear the dialogue. This is the only scene (on any DVD) that I've noticed something like this. Has this happened to anyone else? It's not a problem or anything, just VERY strange.

In 3x17 A Hundred Days (conidence?) he has relations with another women (cant rememebr name). Nothing happens but still you would think he would know better then that.

Can't help feeling the director's cut would have given this a bit more substance. Like several other eps in the first 2 series, this felt toally like a Trek episode -- I can't help wondering if some of the earlier stories were originally written for Trek and then dusted down and reshaped for sg1 (Robert Cooper's book in Wormhole Extreme anyone?).

Towards the end of this ep, as Jack is aging, did they get a different actor? It doesn't really look like him anymore (besides all the makeup, I mean) and he seems to develop some sort of southern accent.YAY DANCING BANANAS!!!
