Clasic episode in my opinion the best SG-1 Time Travel Episode ever. Loved Tealc Jimmy Hendrix and the way he stopped the bus was just hilarious.

A great episode! Seeing SG-1 go back to 1969 as a great idea on the part of the writers! Jack giving his name as Kirk and Skywalker was great! I can easily see why this mad ethe viewers choice marathon a few weeks back.

Classic episode!! On terms of creativity, it rivals Window of Opportunity with a good fight (but not TOO good, in my mind...WOP will always be my epi!

I loved this ep. I thought they handled the whole time travel thing quite well, incorporating the solar flare as the source. Kind of similar to the elements that were used for time travel in Star Trek: The Voyage Home.Comment

What an awesome episode. I have an interesting observation to report. The noise that was made when Jack opened the doors of the observatory sounds similar to the noise that the elevator on myst island in the video game myst made. I've played both back and it sounds darned near close. Weird.Comment

Maybe one of the SFX guys heard it when he/she was playing Myst and figured, "Hey. that would work for that scene!"Comment

Sorry for this, but I wanted to mention some more holes I thought of
Watch out for spoilers if for some odd reason you haven't seen these episodes before.
I'm surprised a bunch of people have mentioned 2010 but haven't mentioned it doesn't really make sense along with this episode. In the future Cassandra's there in a gateroom out of order, while they should have ended up in the public airport type place from 2010. They only didn't go to the Aschen planet because they got the note back from their future selves.
And why do they end up in the gate room? They go back in time from the gate room, they end up in the gate room. They go forward in time in some armoury, they end up in the gate room. Should the same thing have happened on the end of the episode as in the beginning? The whole being in two times at once thing.
Just some thoughts

Many, including myself, have speculated that Earth must be far more technologically advanced by that year in the future and could determine exactly when SG-1 was going to arrive from the past. With this information, the future Earthlings could move the gate back to its original location and cover the equipment in order to hide the future from the team.Originally posted by Lord Gwi
Continuity isn't exactly the strong point of TPTB. That said, this is kind of pathetic. They couldn't even get it down for one episode. geez...And why do they end up in the gate room?

It's true, but there really wasn't any way around it. I suppose you could formulate an explanation of some sort that explains different effects when travelling backward through time rather than forward in time. Perhaps it had something to do with the size or shape of the solar flare that SG-1 hit (the time travel effects happened within the wormhole rather than after SG-1 reintegrated back on Earth). Whatever the case, we were probably owed a one or two line explanation as to the asymmetry between the two time travel events.Originally posted by Lord Gwi"There is simply no other choice than this: either to abstain from interference in the free play of the market, or to delegate the entire management of production and distribution to the government.

Caught this ep again on Sky 1 having not seen it for a while and thoroughly enjoyed it. Probably because I never tend to notice them until someone points them out to me (yes, duh) but on the whole I try not to get too wound up by plot flaws and holes, just disengage brain and enjoy the ride.
Good fun episode

A great episode, but with one fatal flaw IMHO. They spoiled something. By having Cassie in the future they have made success a certainty, we know Daniel survives to old age "I hardly recognised you with hair" Things may end differently, and the timeline may change, but in my book there is nothing that is going to change from what it was at the end of this episode, at least we have a happy ending to look forward toEquality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women. And the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who is confronted with it.

You're right. Since it could be argued that what we saw is a "set future". No matter what timeline (the one from "2010" or the one that has developed in the show) SG-1 still went to 1969. Because of the encounter at the end of this episode, Cassie will now be waiting for the team god-knows when. The time line issue isn't worth arguing about because its a non-issue. Cassie will still be there to send them back trough the gate in the distant future no matter what. Also, I have a feeling that the "adventure is just beginning line" was kind of a in-joke considering the events of the episode after "1969".Originally posted by PtahTheCreationGod

It was a great idea, I just think it was a little short sighted, still, they have ways of making these things work.Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for.

Keep this in mind: if you say that the show's just beginning and it's kind of hard to cancel it now isn't it?Originally posted by PtahTheCreationGod
