Originally posted by HyperCazI really like this episode but when I saw another "to be continued" I almost screamed. I don't mind two parters - in fact this two parter was pretty good - but three parters seem just a little too much. I lose interest after a while.
Mitchell really isn't a guy I'd put in charge of SG1. I admit that when I first saw Lam and Landry together I thought they had a relationship which was in no way familial.
This episode was very interesting in terms of getting a glimpse at new scenery and new bad guys. I enjoyed the Vala/Daniel interaction, starting with the teasing right through to the fire.

MGM Stargate SG-1 Site - Season Nine Episodes:
Just went by the official MGM Stargate SG-1 site at:
http://www.stargatesg1.com/
(Choose low or high bandwidth entry at the main page.)
And noticed that they have updated the Season Nine episode section,
complete with photos and episode trailers, available in Windows Media
Player, Real Time Player, and QuickTime formats. (This may be old
news, I don't frequent this site as much as I used to. I searched this thread for any mention of the MGM SG1 site, but didn't get a hit.)
(Click on the Episodes link on the left hand side of the page.)
For the Avalon section, they have a photo of the stunt Vala actress in complete "burned" makeup.
For the faint of heart, I won't include the image in this post, but here's the link to the photo:

I've just seen this episode on the DVD (as Channel 4 still haven't shown season 9!), so, I know this is old hat for most people, but, one question that sprang to mind is, don't they have anybody at the SGC with the Ancient gene? And if not, why not?? I would have thought the obvious thing to try if they wanted to remove the stones from that machine would be to get somebody with the gene to try it, and if they don't have anyone, they could have called Jack or Colonel Everett in, or maybe even contacted the Daedalus to ask it to come back, or given somebody the gene. I know it was stated that you don't need the gene to make the stones work, but there might well be some functions of that machine, and perhaps of the stones too, that only work if you have it. Certainly worth a try, I would have thought.
I'm afraid I didn't buy the idea that Vala would die on Earth because of her host body dying on the Ori planet, so I didn't really feel much tension when she was burning; in fact, I was thinking that might be the way her consciousness would return to her own body! Oh, well.Please... leave the touching to the experts.

Just saw this episode, 'cause in Finland they didn't show seasons after s5 and I've had to buy all seasons since that.
I must say I really liked this episode. It was pretty cool to actually see Prior for the first time. They seem to be quite powerful, so I think Ori's are, too. As it seems that they're really evil guys, I think they offer greater opponent to SGC team than Goa'uld ever did.
And that Daniel speaking so fast doesn't matter to me as we have subtitles in Finnish and I don't have to be so observant about that. As I'm speakin' about Daniel, I must say his performance in this ep was great! And Vala was wonderful, too. This was interesting episode in many ways, and I love everything ancient related, so all that Merlin things in that cave was cool and I liked it. This ep was also much like early SG-1 alike, more than any ep in season 8, so I also liked it 'cause of that. One of the best SG-1 eps I remember.
And I must add that I don't like Mitchell so much after Jack, who was always so simple and funny and still so cool, but maybe I'll start to like as season goes on. New staff actually changed pretty spontaneously, that it made me a bit confused, and still does. But I'll hope it gets better.
Sorry for a little off-topic.
