A Little More On That SG1 This Week
We were discussing this week's SG1 in comments, and now I have a little more info on the ep:
SCI FI Channel's highest-rated original series, Stargate SG-1, hits a milestone in February with its 150th episode, a key segment in which tragedy befalls a member of the team. The milestone episode is the conclusion of a two-part episode, "Heroes." Part 1 premieres at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Feb. 13; Part 2 debuts at the same time on Feb. 20.
If you don't like spoilers at all, don't hit MORE! If you want to see what's up, then please do.
In Part 1, the president (William Devane) and the Department of Defense send a small crew to film standard operational procedures at Cheyenne Mountain, the Stargate Command base. Gen. Hammond (Don S. Davis) warns Bregman (Saul Rubinek), the seemingly flippant civilian in charge of the filming, that his presence is highly unorthodox and interference with staff safety or mission security will not be tolerated.In Part 2, Bregman hounds SG-1 in an attempt to capture "the humans behind the soldiers," sensing that his "classified" film will eventually become public. As disaster unfolds, however, and a key member of the SGC is killed in action, Bregman and his crew get more authentic footage than they bargained for.
I heard a few months back that someone was being killed off. My guess then was Hammond, and I guess I'll stick with that for now. Mostly because there were hints that Jack would finally get a promotion, and that would make sense if Jack gets Hammond's job. Not to mention it fits in with RDA wanting less filming hours.
Of course, who they kill off may not seem like a "key member" to me. For me, key members would be Jack, Sam, T'ealc, Daniel, Hammond, Dr. Fraser. My alternate would be Dr. Fraser.
I guess we'll see.

It's sad that someone will die. I love the show exactly how it is... don't change it!
I believe they are trying to lead into finding Atlantis, and then into the spinoff show Stargate Atlantis which is to begin airing this summer. I'm very excited about Atlantis, and hope its at least half as good as SG1.
Atlantis is supposed to be a civilian operation, with a love interest... a 40ish man with a younger (early 20ish I think)girl from a different planet.

And it's nice seeing a certain someone in SG-1, when you see it Ithy, you'll know who I mean :) (I'm pretty sure anyway that you'll know! *G*)
