#stargate continuum

The thing Dean Devlin has always known that so many other showrunners have forgotten is you don't need blockbuster-level special effects, grimdark realism that only seems to apply when it comes to violence and misogyny, shock value twist endings, or a sex scene per episode. All you really need is a small group of fucked up strange little guys and gals, a fantastical backdrop to be endlessly explored (i.e. a magical library, an intergalactic wormhole traveling device, the notion of true humanity and redemption amidst a cruel machiavellian world), and some wonder and whimsy.

I rewatched Continuum yesterday. And it just hit me:

Sam is a kick-ass pilot!

I mean, intellectually, I knew that before. But those fighter scenes... Competent, cool, professional!

I know the series had a few moments where she is in a plane or glider. But her pilot side was never really in the foreground of any episode (it does not count if it’s only talked about or alluded to).

So allow me to marvel a bit more.

Samantha Carter, USAF. Idol. Role model.

Heroine of my youth!

Just watched Continuum for the first time and let me just say that was a whole lotta pain that I knew was coming but definitely wasn't ready for.

Me and my mum watched Stargate: Continuum today! She was happy in the beginning because it had jack in it, and then she saw Don S David in the credits, and THEN saw Major Davis, and said, “this so the best movie ever because it has all of them in it,” and then proceeded to watch Jack die

I’d watched quite a lot of it already, but I shan’t dare tell her that because my anxiety would go crazyy. Just pretended like I’d never watched it before. I have weirdly accurate predictions 🤔😂

At the end she tried to argue with me on how the time travel works, and then that The Ark of Truth was set AFTER continuum… like babe I wouldn’t have put it on yesterday if I knew it was in the wrong order?

I let her get on with it because It’s too much hassle to argue with her these days
