I have a question of this episode, sorry if has been asked before.
When there's the hyper launch why jack, sam and daniel fall to the floor and tealc can stand up? It's beacaause he is used of it?LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL BUT SOMETIMES COMPLICATED
Can you tell me how it used to be?
Have we changed our hopes for fears and our dreams for plans?

I ask just because I wonder what you are comparing this episode to.
And I compared it to some other very popular episodes like Lost City or Avalon.
The reasons why I love "Within the serpent`s Grasp and Serpents Lair are
- great team feel (which I missed in other "big" episodes (especially in Lost City)
- the enemies came over as real tread to earth ( not as on many later episodes when the enemies were almost parodies of themself)
- the show still captured to this time still some of the ancient egypt feeling of the movie anstead going for the generic pseudo Star Trek and pseudo Farscape stuff of the new seasons (I mean season 7 onwards)
- and the humour wasn`t so much over the top as now
And I stay to my opinion: This episodes had made a great movie!
But now you have made me curious. What are the reasons why you don`t seem to like this episodes very much and which one do you think were better?
And how many has YOU seen?Last edited by Starfalcon; 30 April 2006, 09:35 AM.

That being said, I agree with you. It was a good "team" episode. It had the right amount of humor, perfectly timed, good bantering, a good story. As to the size of the threat, 2 motherships against a world that had no way to defend themselves is a huge threat. Later seasons, they had some new alien technology and Earth technology based on alien technology to defend themselves. Looking at the special effects alone is not really the best way to make a Stargate comparison, IMO.
I really enjoyed these two episodes. And I have seen every episode of Stargate SG-1, and excluding S9 (some I have seen once, some twice), I have seen every episode of S1-8 several times at least.I GoodSearch for the Michael J Fox Foundation for Parkinsons ResearchRaise money for your favorite charity - www.goodsearch.com - powered by Yahoo!

As a newbie I may have missed something here, but how did Skaara come to be Apothis's son? Didn't he go off with another couple (ie not Apothis and Sha're) at the end of Children of the Gods?
I loved this episode though.sigpicPlease don't laugh, this is one of my first attempts at a banner.
