And yes he is teamed up with Kaylee and Aquaman.

Having trouble focusing on the meme itself. Cause she's pretty.

I don’t why, but trying to load this low quality gif of a 15 year old mid budget sci-fi show has brought my phone to its fucking knees.

I can feel the heat from the cpu through the case, and the keyboard was lagging a good 10 characters behind while typing the first sentence of this reply.

What kind of gif is this?

Huh, going to the site directly is fine.

I can only assume my app isn’t handling the link well.

Gonna submit a big report to Memmy, because that was excruciating

Tried linking to Stamets post, then his page for a different post and both failed. Connect may be the culprit.

Stargate Atlantis.

Picardo plays a no-nonsense special ops commando, fighter pilot, neuroscientist who is also dashing with the ladies.

So, just the Doctor.

I must be on crack because I distinctly remember picardo being one of the “bean counter civilian oversight” people constantly trying to shut down the stargate project.

You forgot moments like him tossing a satchel of explosives to the alien queen and saying “Bomb voyage!” before making a jump through Stargate and landing superhero posed in Atlantis?

Was that the episode where he seduces the village elder's daughter after winning 10 arm wrestling matches in a row at the tavern?

Is it weird that I spent many hours watching the series and have no memory of it?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

How could you forget the absolutely insane CSI parody that was the finale lead in?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Because I'm also in this state, I want to say it's not weird.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I've been meaning to watch it, it's supposed to be good right?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Stargate is... its own thing, but if you like it then Stargate Atlantis is good.

Personally, I never felt like any of it was ever as good as even mediocre Trek, and it definitely has this military fetishism / combat focus that I didn't care for as much, but there are some pretty good and fun episodes as well and there's a ton of Trek/90s scifi alums you'll recognize (including Connor Trinneer playing a big bad that is definitely not Trip Tucker).

Stargate is great SG1 is a lot of fun and knows it’s generally not to be taken seriously Atlantis is big swings of good and just fuckterrible Universe sucks hard

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Atlantis is the definition of “pretty okay, I guess.”

It’s what you watch when you want to watch SG-1 but also are burnt out on SG-1.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Sg1 is so good imo. It's like lower decks is to the rest of trek. Still thought-provoking and interesting at its best, but at its worst it's just a whole lot of cheesy fun. Voyager straight up copied some episodes from it, or at least was "heavily influenced" by episode concepts.
