Wormhole X-Treme! (512)

[es!]

This ep is a good parody, altho I didn't really like it.

[gateship15]

it was a very interesting episode

[echidnadon]

I can see why people like this episode and I can see the good qualities in it. But something about it really got on my nerves during the rerun today and I'm not quite sure why.

just rewatched this ep and had a similar experience. i did like the interviews at the end, esp. the levant (sp?) part

At least I got to see Malcolm Barrett's first appearance in SG-1 all over again.

oh indeed! i'm rewatching the entire series and trying to note what makes each episode momentous. barrett's first appearance makes this one. doesn't trust sam, ha!

Spoiler:

he'll soon change his tune.

This is one of my favorite os the season. The spoof TV show is just too funny.

[Martina Magnus]

This wasn't one of the best eps ... but still it was kind of funny ... I thnik I like this ep

[rushy]

Wormhole X-Treme series itself were totally pathetic. Sooooo stupid acting for an example when they got shot even Martin said that it was stupid.

[Tallifer]

This is a fantastic story! I laughed every minute of the entire show! (Self parodies are always hilarious when well done: another good example is "Love and Monsters" for Doctor Who about a group of ordinary people who are searching for the Doctor.)

Plus the plot itself was a nice post script to the previous and also funny story of Martin the unknown alien.

(I do not understand why some posters complain that there were too many "in jokes." I am a very new fan of Stargate and I had no problem understanding and laughing at the many jokes. Perhaps some jokes had a "deeper" meaning or more obscure reference, but they were always funny on the surface.)

Loved the in jokes, and the parody. Great fun!

If you cant take the p*** out of yourself then you take life to seriously..

[arisboch87]

Does anyone know where to find the theme song for the Wormhole X-Treme "series" (meta-series)?

[Lunaeclipse]

I thought this was a very telling episode. It told us some of what the directors and stuff go through, like the out of phase conversation. It made me laugh. The production jokes were some of the best.

I loved the way that Jack gave a simple answer to an over-complicated idea and how they got him to be in a position to see what his job was, no matter how overdramically it was. A form of irony?...

The wormhole exteme show made me laugh as it was portrayed like a syfy soap opera. Along with all the silliness they still were able to carry an Sg1 storyline. Well done for the lighthearted ep.

"It appears the crew here do not enjoy the traditional dishes of Chulak."

[Matt G]

I'm possibly the first Rewatcher to catch this ep(helps that I watched this out of order - doh!)

1. OK...who remembers the special GW homepage for this ep?

2. Hadn't a clue what to make of the idea behind the ep but wasn't overly looking forward to it.

3. Well they did actually give it something resembling a plot with the ship and all.

4. "Please Mr Man in Black, please don't tell me you don't know about the aliens". Best line of ep!

5. Epilogue wasn't so bad.

Bit of a meh ep overall though.

Watched this earlier in the week, wonder where Tanner and the other guys went and what ultimately happened to them..

Perhaps they are on a planet thats out of phase with the Furlings, Crystal Skull aliens and all the other "loose end" characters from over the years

[NowIWillDestroyAbydos]

I like this episode, top 5 of Season 5, even it is a love-it or hate-it episode.

All the crew cameos were awesome. Although watching this again make realize that this show (the show-within-a-show) was kind of corny.

Martin Lloyd and the show-within-a-show will be back in 100 episodes.

Monday, that chick from Battlestar Galactica appears when officers have to prove themselves.
