    Which SG scene would deserve a reaction video on YouTube? ?spoilers?

    I know that the Stargate shows were family friendly, so occasionally there were some nice darker plot twists, but they were not like the LOST or Game of Thrones. So which scene would you chose to record to share the reaction of a new SG viewer on YouTube? Which plot twist was the most shocking or surprising which was not expected? Please use spoiler tags.

    If you were spoilerfree, than I would definitely say that the following two scenes would classify for a "reaction video":

    SG-1
    Spoiler:
    Janet getting shot in Heroes I.


    SGA
    Spoiler:
    Michael's reveal as being a Wraith.

      Platschu, I love you and everything you do for this community -- your commitment and level of fandom is something most of us can only aspire to without ever achieving -- but "reaction videos" are just the worst kind of faux-fandom

        It's like watching an animal at the zoo, I guess.

          For me it's just....there are only two possible circumstances under which a "reaction video" could be filmed. Either
          a) You're just always filming yourself when watching things, therefore you are appallingly vain; OR
          b) You're recording yourself the second time you watch it, in which case it's completely staged -- so you're faking it on top of being appallingly vain

          In either case, just so eye-rollingly phony

              SG1
              Spoiler:
              Daniel's death or the Death of the Asgard (assuming they had seen enough of SG1 for it to have an effect). And not a plot twist, but the battle over Antartica


              SGA
              Spoiler:
              Carson's Death or the Reveal of the evil Asgard. And, not a plot twist, but Atlantis rising from the Ocean


              Spoiler:
              SGU
              Young leaving Rush for dead or the end of Gauntlet

                Great. I can't open the spoiler tags on my tablet, so I willread you comments on my PC. Thanks for the kind words, DigiFluid. "Vanity is definately my favorite sin!" I have a dozent favorite YouTube reactors (like Normies, Sasskasays), so when I have watched Game of Thrones then I have looked around to see a few familiar faces' reaction. I have never subscribed to any of them, just it is good to see their opinion like an alternative to the forum.

                Stargate was never really built on the WTF moments. Maybe some of the two parter had nice cliffhangers, while others have really felt forced (like the return of CloneBeckett). I don't want to write spoilers (and not on my tablet anyway) because of FH, but I believe the SG:U had a few nice plot twists what nobody has expected.

                I am guessing everybody has seen all SG shows who wanted to see them,so maybe the next geeration audience could be a target for such videos. But since they are rushed with so many nice games and other tv shows with massive and detailed lores, that maybe the children wouldn't watch the SG shows what their parents liken even as a part of their teenager protest. Simply a nice cgi battle won't mean the same for them in comparsion to that generation who have grown up in the 90es.

                  I find that I'm hardly surprised by plottwists, and sometimes I'm annoyed when I've seen it coming a mile away... Except for that one kill in Game of Thrones at the end of the battle of Winterfell... that was worthy of a reaction video by me...

                    Spoiler:
                    The reveal of Apophis on the prison of hell episode, I think that was a good one.
                    Spoiler:
                    I don’t want to be human. I want to see gamma rays, I want to hear X-rays, and I want to smell dark matter. Do you see the absurdity of what I am? I can’t even express these things properly, because I have to—I have to conceptualize complex ideas in this stupid, limiting spoken language, but I know I want to reach out with something other than these prehensile paws, and feel the solar wind of a supernova flowing over me. I’m a machine, and I can know much more.
