Stargate Continuum

No.

Forget it.

Tonight there will be no drivel, no babbling, no visceral, stercoraceous pap.

No jokes.  No ranting. No cursing.

No politics.

No dinner.

No Dad’s Taxi for Bullet.

 

Tonight there will be an Indian take-away, a bottle of wine, boots off and feet up.

Tonight, I relax with a full, feature-length Stargate on the telly, getting enthusiastically drunk and shouting things like Yeah!  Go for it, O Neill!!, or Shoot them fuckin Goa’uld motherfuckers, or even For fucksake Carter, get ‘em off! while my horrified son skulks away with his friends to play electric guitars in their lair.

Oh yes.  Isn’t it great to be mature and all grown up at last?

UPDATE

Ok.  It’s started.

God!  Amanda Tapping is as sexy as ever.  Be still my pounding heart.

(Or not).

  1. they need to bring Mcguyver back

    and I mean McGuyver the TV show.

  2. I watched this today, I was pleasantly surprised. Quite good actually. Enjoy!

  3. Roosta -

    They can’t. He’s now Jack O Neill, although Stargate has many MacGyver in-jokes.

    Sinéad -

    I can’t wait. I’m paralysed with excitement. In fact, I’ve become retarded and crippled.

  4. I loved the original Stargate movie, hmmmmm James Spader! and McGuyver aint half bad either :)

  5. ster·co·ra·ceous;
    Pronunciation[stur-kuh-rey-shuhs]
    –adjective Physiology. consisting of, resembling, or pertaining to dung or feces.

  6. Well done.

  7. How I miss Stargate. I still don’t get your Tapping obsession but each to his own. Anyone I mentioned it to didn’t get that I liked the mechanic girl instead of the hooker in Firefly. And, to bring it nicely full-circle(ish) she is now playing the doctor lady in Stargate Atlantis. One degree of separation (or something). Lovely.

    Excuse me when I clasp my hands to my chest and stare off into space. Ahhhhhh.

  8. Of course, you know you’re all mad you know, don’t you?

  9. Am I reading this correctly,
    No jokes. No ranting. No cursing. No politics.

    All I can say is it better have been a great opening to have absolutely no drivel,visceral,stercoraceous,jokes,ranting, or my beloved cunting cursing.
    I trust the Tapping rear end and other expressions were up to pat (excuse the blatant pun).
    p.s. Still miss the ould McGuyver T.V show always what happened to Pete?

  10. Unrelated, but I have to share these:

    What a clown!

  11. watched it …………… hasnt Jack gotten fat lol, still brill………. and Atlantis back next week woo hoo, who needs the sun ????????????

  12. I love science fiction and did Daniel Jackson grow a leg last night or was it a foot?

  13. Bock, the cake is a lie!

    I don’t know where they shoot the early scenes with the chopper panning over them but it was gorgeous.

  14. I think they film a lot of it in British Columbia near Vancouver. Tax breaks mean it’s cheaper to shoot there than in the U.S. There are lots of special effects / CGI businesses there too.

  15. ditto on the Vancouver area filming…

    Bock,
    you absolutely know how to have a great evening. Indeed!

    Jack ONeil for me, and I even like his attitude. Of course, the doc on Stargate Atlantis isn’t bad…love his eyes! ;)

  16. Ah stargate.

    One of the best series I’ve watched on tv.

    Don’t particularly fancy Carter that much though.

    The Jack O’Neill character is excellently scripted and acted though.
