In this Episode we talk about the Pilot of the show Stargate SG-1 "Children of the Gods". That is Episodes 1 and 2 of the first season (re-released as a movie).
Some of the problems the 1994 movie had are way better in the show - other things just got worse. Join us, as we first meet our two additions to the Team: Captain Doctor Sam Carter and the alien Teal'C. Wanna bet if we have to say some things about them?

In this Episode we talk about some of the 1994 movie Stargate, that later inspired the fantastic show Stargate SG-1 and subsequently, much later, inspired this podcast. It's the first episode we ever recorded, and after 120 minutes of movie, more than 4 hours of recording and a whole week of editing I am both exhausted and excited to share our thoughts with the world (that means you)!
