Proper Stargate Rewatch -- season 10 of SG-1

This, like several other episodes, leaves a lot open in the end. I would've enjoyed seeing a conversation between Sam and Daniel about what she experienced when she merged with the wispy alien guy. You know he didn't die when he took the bomb away. I mean, they can make themselves non-corporal. He would easily be able to do that just before it exploded and survive the blast. So why didn't he come back to Sam?
I'd also like to have seen the conversations between SGC and the government after everything happened. Did they not try to reverse engineer the makeshift Stargate in Carters basement? It was made from parts ordered online. Given it had a one-time usage limit, but it wasn't destroyed. Seems like they could've made another (better) one by investing a bit of time on it.

So I guess Orlin was watching Carter when she was getting undressed for bed.. The making an emerald thing was pretty cool. And interesting to see a mini-vortex effect, I guess there's no reason why you can't go from a small wormhole entrance to a larger one on the other side. I wonder how much her bill was or if SGC covered the costs
First apperance for John de Lancie, one of the few Stargate actors I've met, he makes a better NID villain than the overly comical Maybourne.

Ah, Sean Patrick Flanery as Orlin --*thunk*
Aaaaanyway...
A desolate planet where a big, honkin' spacegun is the only thing left standing, amongst the ruins of a monument build to commemorate the victory the people had over the Goa'uld.
And nobody finds that in the least bit suspicious? I mean, the Tolan once told a story about how they assisted a planet build defensive weapons and when they had served their purpose they turned on each other. Really, no one remember that?
I guess, the big honkin' spacegun is just too much of a distraction for a military organization to be worried about consequences to people using it, or abusing it for their own gain.
Meh...
Orlin is hilarious, trying to fit in and coming of as a total creep in the process. I'm sure he didn't mean to but his method could use some serious work. I'm sure Carter agrees. AND HE BUILD A STARGATE IN CARTER'S BASEMENT!! HOW COOL IS THAT?!?
Also, that's going to be one hell of a credit card bill...
And in the end he saves the day, and gets another chance from the others. Aw, poor Sam though.
I'm giving this an excellent cause it's one of those episodes I never get tired of. It has good character interaction. Some really nice guests and antagonists. Suspension and mystery. More on ascension. And hey, the SGC does have bathrooms -- if ever anyone was wondering about that.
How would you rate SG-1's "Ascension?"
Excellent
Good
Fair
Poor
Terrible

As FH says a lot, something is missing. That is what I feel about this episode. I'm feels like we are going through the motions in this episode. The weapon and the planet turning on one another is something we have seen time and time again on SG1. I suppose we learned a little about ascension but nothing groundbreaking. The one thing I did love was the introduction of the worse NID opperatives. I loved Simmons as an antagonist. I'm.calling it fair with 8 minutes 14 secondOriginally posted by aretood2Jelgate is right
