Reminds me of Spaceballs. Where Princess Vespa is forced to leave her industrial strength hairdryer (that she "CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT!!!!') behind when they crash in a Tatooine type planet.
Oh! That's right! Spaceballs is a SPOOF! Silly, silly me. Why am I drawing comparisons between a spoof and SG-1?
suse
<sigh>
I can't stand Spaceballs..... That movie just irritates me. I don't know
why. It just does
biggest cliche fest i've seen in a long, long time
Spaceballs? That was the whole point. But done well (not as an accident).
Tangentially on topic: Remember Felger with his Sam doll? Dark Helmet had dolls/barbies. He made the Vespa one leave Lone Star (the only man with the nerve to give in the raspberry ) because she finds his helmet...never mind. Rick Moranis did it on one take. Ad libbed.
Yeah, you need to go into it knowing it's a spoof. But it's incredibly well done.
The hair dryer takes the prize for one of the most stupid things I have seen on Sg-1. Its not even the traveling size.
One would think that a woman who's lived almost her entire life on planets with no electricity would be above hair dryers. Continuity? Coherence? Not in this season!
I suppose you've seen the deleted scenes for that episode? There's a hair curler. And a stuffed animal. *headdesk*
One would think the concept of no 120v plugs may keep someone from bringing a hairdryer offworld too.
Oh and was this an earth glass cutter (whered she get it, is that in the commissary?) or an alien one which is interesting since you dont actually see that much glass in Stargate... Remember when carter said the motherships windows werent actually glass, but forcefields...
Joseph Mallozzi -"In the meantime, I'm into season 5 of OZ (where the show takes an unfortunate hairpin turn into "the not so wonderful world of fantasy")"
^^^ Kinda sounds like seasons 9 and 10 of SG-1 to me. Thor, ya got Aspirin?
AGateFan has officially Gone Fishin (with Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c) and is hoping Atlantis does not take that same hairpin turn.

So what does continuity and sense have anything to do with the price of tea in China?
If it isn't fun -it isn't worth anything.
Frankly the hair dryer thing was real quite odd-remember when they had to give up something they treasured in order to complete their quest??? and she threw in the hair dryer???? a hair dryer/???
Franklin said, "They that can give up essential liberty for a little safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

If she got a battery powered curling iron that could be quite a weapon.
Odo's last wishes: cremate me, put me in my bucket, then shoot me through the wormhole.
