Very nice Teal'c ep and great Team part at the end.
Jack's Matrix line, too classic.
Teal'c having played Def Jem Vendetta, that really intrigues me, I wonder what character he would most use, DMX I'm thinking.
Teal'c playing DOOM, heh, right before Avatar came on, I myself was playing DOOM3, and I've got to say, no game currently out there can even begin to compete with DOOM3's graphics, but that virtuality game was very close, and there was no lag whatsoever on that screen we saw, wish I could play DOOM3 on a computer like that, could crank it all the way up to ultra settings and get no lag, guess that would be a perk for Teal'c, playing a game like DOOM3 on a extremely soupped up computer.
Great twist at the end also, and Siler being a snake lol.
Chalk up another "It's what we do"
Wonder how many more we're gonna get before season is over.

I really enjoyed watching this one, it was fun. Loved the Matrix comment, I only saw the first one but I gotta agree. I didn't expect Siler to be the goa'uld that was a nice twist, I was half expecting either Jack or Sam's eyes to start glowing. And they got to blow the SGC up and kill all the major characters how often do they get to do that! I'm gonna have to watch this one again later, I know I probably missed some things, always do in my first viewing. I can't believe there's only 4 more episodes until the mid-season break, sure has gone by fast."Out of the way it's a busy day, I've got things on my mind." --Pink Floyd

Avatar was a lot of fun, but like last week, it's just another filler ep. No actual impact upon the arc of Stargate. I really hope Season 8 doesn't end up like the first half of Season 7, with 6 from 11 eps as just Filler. So far we're 2 from 6, which is better odds, but I'm still wary.

I'm posting this before I read anyone else's replies -- AOL has been seizing on me and I want to get my thoughts out before it inevitably does it again. So, "Avatar"...
* Quite a good episode, better than what I had thought after seeing the advertisements all week.
* The team dynamics were there for a few fleeting moments at a time, even though it all took place at the SGC. I loved the "You might have done it again, sir" remark from Carter.
* The whole videogame aspect -- I'm a gamer myself (less now than I used to be -- probably a good thing) and I like First Person Shooters -- this is what the CGI graphics the team was seeing appeared to be like. The concept was neat -- being stuck in a game. I'd love to try it! Maybe this will spark a SG-1 game...
* The new doctor was nice. Not Dr Fraiser by any means, but he sure beat the pants off the one in "Lockdown."
* I loved the ending -- it just felt like SG-1 had "come home" for a while.
I don't know why I really liked this episode. O'Neill wasn't present much, which usually slows things down for me. But when he was there, he was there and that made it worth it. The story was good, believable, and it flowed well. Maybe I'm just a sucker for VR stuff, I dunno.Bander

I loved Daniel´s "What?!", when he´s talking to Teal'c in the sickbay, it sounded very much like how Jack would say it.
The Matrix-remark was great and so was Jack´s line about how: "Obviously there´s something defected with this thing" in response to Teal'c saying O´Neill dies well in battle.
I really want to see more of Dr. Lee in future episodes, he was a lot of fun.
All in all, a highly enjoyable episode. And I´m not even a 'game'-person.Shin ~ def. A device for finding furniture in the dark.

Great episode! I loved the scenes shown in the video game format, and especially the panning shots when Daniel entered the game. Very "Dead Zone"-esque, but really cool. The episode even subdued my impulsive channel-changing for fear I'd miss something (a pretty impressive feat, actually)."Dogs are my favorite people"

OK, I really like this ep...It was well done and well written, and as a lot of people have said it could have gone the other way.....
I was great to see the insight into the mind of Teal'c....and his never give up attitude and that little part of him that doubted about being able to defeat the Goul'd....
Love the three of them all saying "I'll do it" at the same time, (they really are a family)...and it made perfect since to me that it was Daniel that did it....as Carter said they didn't need Jack's Black Op's mind in there and it made since that Carter was stay out because of her science background and the possibility that she might be about to him, so we get Daniel in the Game (Thunk)....
Love the first few time around with Teal'c killing Daniel and his little comments about that...something like "I'm going to have to get use to this"...
I really enjoyed the end where it was the "team" that came together...I think someone said this earlier but I think it showed that no one person is going to defeat the Goul'd but as a team having faith in each other that goal is attainable (sp?)
