Sixth Question

[potentiality_26]

From verdande_mi: What was your favorite stargate plot or subplot? (can be SG-1 or SGA, can be one episode or a long-term storyline). Go top 5 if you prefer.

My favorite episodic plot was "The Changling" from SG-1 (the one where Teal'c keeps dreaming that he's a firefighter in a "real world" setting and can't tell which life is real; I love the premise and the performances everyone gives, and all the fanfic people ended up writing set in that universe).  On SGA my favorite was probably "Midway" but not really for any intelligent reasons, Teal'c and Ronan fighting the Wraith together was just really awesome.

I loved the multiple episode arc with the Unas.  I think I've talked about this before, but all of those episodes were amazing examples of why I love Daniel so much.  Also I think the Unas were really interesting as a species, and I loved what the show ultimately did with them.

I also want to mention how much I love Jacob Carter's story arc.  He was such a great character, and seeing a regular real-world human become part of the larger universe just hits all my buttons.  (It's probably my favorite SF trope, and probably another of the things I love so much about Daniel)

On SGA, I think the whole Todd the Wraith plotline was my favorite.  I love the compexities of his not-friendship with Sheppard, and the way the show juggled having a not-completely-evil Wraith with the general concept of the series.

One of my favorite Episode(s) was "Heroes I + II" because it dealt with so distasteful things like bureaucracy and the perception of "Outsiders". The same reason I like "Politics" (beside the very young Daniel Jackson).
And of course all episodes with the Unas because they complement Daniel so perfectly.

"Heroes" isn't a favorite of mine simply because the documentary-style-episode thing has never thrilled me, but it was very well done and very realistic (and also very sad, obviously). Stargate always did the more real-world oriented episodes very well.

The Changeling is a good episode and I very much agree with what you said about Jacob Carter!

Todd was great and Midway is one of my facourite SGA episodes. It was grat finally having Teal'c appear on SGA and I liked him and Ronon fighting wraith and finding common ground :)
