This ep shows the differences between the Tok'ra, the Jaffa and the Tauri. I missed somebody saying: Your ways are not the only ways - I don't know which of them were the most likable or should I say dislikable. Nice shooting scene although I'm not a friend of weapons.
I love the scene in the end: Bra'tac and the knife - moving!

More applicable at the end was the phrase: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Anyhow...
Another one of those episodes that has some really cool shots, like O'Neill firing the 50cal. -- quite spectacular. Or Bra'tac kicking some serious butt, or more accurately is getting kicked down but he fought bravely nonetheless. And the end scene where he makes that speech and throws the dagger into the ground.
We stand... united!
This definitely remains one of my favorite season 6 episodes.
How would you rate SG-1's "Allegiance?"

I too quite like this episode. It makes sense that the Jaffa and the Tokra would have a lot of bad blood even if they are working together. You can just look at the history that this scenario happens all the time. It is a little slow going to identify the mystery of the Ashrak but that largely doesn't bother me as the focus is exploring and then fixing the bad blood. I kind of like Bra'tac knife metaphor. I still find Jack doing a 360 with the machine gun to be pointless. I give it a goodOriginally posted by aretood2Jelgate is right

I have just rewatched this episode. Quite nice, but the body count was a bit high.
I love that shot when the Jaffas and Tok'Ra are holding weapons to each other. Well done.
I have noticed little mistakes.
1. When the Tok'Ra escape through the gate, the chevrons are not lit on the Stargate.
2. if the Ashrak was a Goa'uld, how could the Tok'ra not sense his presence if Bra'tac and Teal'c were capable?
Jonas was strangely written out of this episode. He and Hammond had only one scene."I was hoping for another day. Looks like we just got a whole lot more than that. Let's not waste it."
"Never underestimate your audience. They're generally sensitive, intelligent people who respond positively to quality entertainment."
"Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today, but the core of science fiction, its essence, has become crucial to our salvation, if we are to be saved at all."
