Only a few TV series are there, which can be said to be truly successful, because of the huge ratings and fans’ response received by those, and the no. of the spin-offs released. Well, not talking about the others, I’d discuss about the ones which are my favorite. And, those are Stargate and CSI. These two series are followed by their successors, which next paved the way for their respective descendants.
Stargate franchise made its TV debut with the series entitled SG-1, and next to it was the Stargate Atlantis. Both the series did a good job, and opened the way for Stargate Universe, the latest release from the Stargate franchise, scheduled to be aired in October, 2009. And, as of now, the creators are in mood to go back into the past, no….not by airing some previous episodes, but by bringing some old faces, back to the show. The people, who have watched SG-1, would be familiar with Richard Dean Anderson, as he was seen in innumerous episodes of the series. The SciFi Network has confirmed that he would make a guest appearance on Stargate Universe, as the show premieres this fall.
In order to give company to Richard, various other popular personalities would also return on Stargate: Universe. Most notably, Amanda Tapping, whom we saw as Samantha Carter on SG-1, and also on a season of Stargate: Atlantis, would also make an appearance, to portray a guest character. Joining her would be Michael Shanks, who played Daniel Jackson in “SG-1″, and Gary Jones, who played Walter Harriman.
Well, the above mentioned ones are the old faces, but the star cast also includes several new names. Christopher MacDonald would make an appearance to play the character of Sen. Carla Rota would join in, to portray the role of Dale Strom.
Mark your calendars so that you can enjoy the latest Stargate release, Stargate: Universe on SciFi Channel. A there is still a little waiting, which you have to endure……, during that time period, you can download Stargate Atlantis episodes here, and can also watch the clips from the upcoming episodes of Stargate Universe TV show.

Episode Number: 216 Season Num: 11 First Aired: Tuesday July 29, 2008 Prod Code: n/a
It’s a normal day at Stargate Command and SG-1 reports to the Gate Room for their mission, as Landry bids them goodbye. He informs the team that Colonel O’Neill has gone ahead with SG-3 to deliver the prisoner, Ba’al, for symbiote extraction. Vala shows up, carrying a big gun in anticipation of execution, and they take it away from her. Vala talks about the experience of undergoing extraction, while Mitchell notes it’s his first extraction.
SG-1 arrives on the Tokra home world where Ba’al is being held for the ceremony as they chant all of his crimes for the last three hours. Vala suddenly disappears but before they can pursue the matter, Ba’al is called forward and given the chance to speak his last words. He addresses himself to SG-1. He expresses regret that Teal’c didn’t become his First Prime, and then notes that Vala has disappeared. He then informs them they’ve made a mistake and hints he’s not the last clone. Ba’al boasts that even though they think he’s the last, he has a failsafe in place but they don’t believe him.
1939
In the Atlantic Ocean, the freighter Achilles is dodging U-boats and carrying a mysterious cargo. The ship starts to shake and the captain sends his mate down to the cargo hold to check the cargo: a large crate addressed to Catherine Langford. The device inside the crate is making noises and suddenly a wormhole expands outward from it, through the side of the ship. As the captain goes down to investigate, Ba’al and Jaffa emerge through the Stargate and secure the ship.
The Present
Michael is still looking for Vala as Ba’al is prepared for extraction. Suddenly Teal’c disappears as Ba’al chuckles. The Tokra start disappearing as well and Jack confronts Ba’al, who stabs him with an extraction needle. Mitchell shoots Ba’al while the others go to Jack, who is dying from the poison in the needle. With his dying breath he tells them to get to the Stargate. Ba’al disappears as well as they leave.
1939
The Jaffa attack and kill the crew, injuring the captain.
The Present
Mitchell collapses, weakened.
1939
As the Jaffa take the bridge and kill the radio operator, the injured captain slips away. Ba’al dials a new address on the Stargate as the captain slips into the cargo hold. Ba’al uses a one-shot power device to power it, steps into the wormhole, and disappears. The wounded captain finds a spherical object that the intruders left behind. He throws it through the hole in the side and it explodes a minute later as the freighter continues on its course.
The Present
Mitchell, Daniel, and Sam get to the Stargate as the Tokra city disappears behind them. They go through the Stargate to Earth and find themselves aboard the freighter, now covered in ice. Mitchell gets Sam to snap out of her shock at seeing Jack killed and they determine the temperature is dropping rapidly. There’s no DHD and no EM signal. Daniel finds a life jacket identifying the ship as the Freighter, the ship that delivered the Stargate to America. Mitchell thinks the name sounds familiar for another reason but can’t identify it. With the temperature dropping to danger levels and no way to start a fire, Mitchell shoots a hole in the ice and plants explosives, then sets off the charge. They blast a hole to the ceiling, but the ship is dislodged from the ice and starts sinking. Mitchell finds some cold weather gear and they get to the surface as the Achilles go down. Daniel is suffering from frostbite and tells the others to leave him to go get help.
Sam and Mitchell reluctantly leave him and make their way across the Arctic landscape. The next day they run into two snow-clad military figures: one is Colonel Jack O’Neill. He recognizes Sam but believes she’s an astronaut who died years ago. He takes them to a nearby submarine, the USS Alexandria, and takes them to the ward room where Daniel has already been recovered. The submarine medic is forced to amputate his frostbitten leg. Jack explains that a satellite detected the wormhole when the Stargate activated. They try to explain to Jack what happened but he is skeptical of their story. When Daniel tries to prove he knows Jack by talking about his dead son, an angry Jack notes that his son is alive and well.
The three SG-1 members are taken to an Air Force base where they are interrogated at great length and forced to repeat their story over and over again. General Landry finally comes to see them and informs them that he believes their story. They have no record of Mitchell (although his grandfather, a Merchant Marine, died in 1939), Sam died several years ago sacrificing herself to save her space shuttle crew, and Daniel Jackson is a crackpot exploring ancient pyramids for signs of alien interference. Landry as no intention of letting them restore their original timeline: doing so would wipe out everyone in the existing timeline. Sam warns that Ba’al is up to something but the general notes that there’s no sign of him. She warns that Ba’al is probably reestablishing his power base but Landry is skeptical. He informs them that they will be given new identities and forced to live separate lives. They may be called upon as consultants but they’ll never be allowed to go through the Stargate again.
One Year Later
Sam, Mitchell, and Daniel are settling into their lives as best they can. Mitchell goes to visit his family farm, while Daniel discovers his counterpart’s book. He calls his counterpart without identifying himself and tries to tell him that his theories are right. His counterpart hangs up on him.
Alkesh vessels soar over the cities of Earth and Sam and Mitchell both learn of the alien scout ships. They contact Landry, who brings them to an underground bunker to meet with President Henry Hayes. The team warns the President that the Alkesh are just the advance scouts and Ba’als fleet is on its way. Hayes asks them for ideas and they suggest that they use the Ancients’ Antarctica weapon platform and the second Stargate. Hayes informs them that he’s already had the Army Corp of Engineers digging on the southern continent and they’re close to both objectives. Sam warns that they’ll need a ZPM to power the weapon platform and Hayes okay their mission to recover one. He assigns them a military escort to keep them safe, and make sure that they don’t try anything to restore their timeline.
Ba’al’s fleet arrives in orbit above Earth. He has captured Apophis, the last of the System Lords to resist him. Teal’s, now serving as Ba’al’s First Prime, bring Apophis in and Ba’al executes him. Ba’al then goes to his throne and sits beside his queen: Quetesh, in Vala’s host body. Quetesh is impressed by how Ba’al has foreseen every possible difficulty, and kept his promises to his allies such as Teal’c. Ba’al has secured Teal’c loyalty and that of the Jaffa by promising them a free nation. The System Lords who have allied themselves with Ba’al arrive and one of them, Camulus, questions Ba’al’s intent to keep his word. In response, Ba’al forces Camulus to give up half of his future Australia holdings to Teal’c. Ba’al then orders the System Lords to hold their fire, as he plans to use diplomacy to convince the Tau’re to ally with him. Only when it’s too late will they realize his plan to turn them into servants for the Goa’uld. Meanwhile, Ba’al learns that the Tau’re are busy at Antarctica and orders Teal’c to destroy the engineers working there.
Mitchell, Sam, and Daniel, along with their fighter escort, head out but get word that the Antarctica base has been destroyed. Hayes gets word from the Russian Premier that they have an artifact, and he tells SG-1 to head for Russia and do whatever they need to do. Ba’al calls President Hayes via cell phone and offers to meet peacefully with him. Hayes is skeptical but agrees to an initial meeting. After Ba’al signs off, Quetesh demands to know how he knows so much about Earth despite the fact she has been at his side for years. She then skewers him with a short sword, demanding that he tell her his secrets. He refuses, and Teal’c enters the room. Despite Quetesh’s efforts, Teal’c realizes that she is usurping the throne and runs. Quetesh kills Ba’al and his symbiote and chases after Teal’c, killing his warriors. However, she’s unable to stop Teal’c before he teleports to his personal vessel and put up the cloaking field. Quetesh orders the other System Lords to begin bombarding Earth into submission and heads for Praxion, Ba’al’s base of operations. Realizing where she’s going, Teal’c resolves to avenge his lord but needs a Stargate to get to Praxion first. He has his crew start scanning for a Stargate on Earth.
The fighters are crossing the Atlantic when Goa’uld fighters intercept them. The escort fighters hold them off long enough to get near Russia where MIF fighters come to their aid. SG-1 lands at the Russian research base. One soldier greets them: the others have left to be with their families. They convince the soldier to take them to the artifact: the Arctic Stargate, which the Russians have recovered. However, there’s no power source. As they try to come up with a solution, Teal’c lands his ship atop the building and extends the force field to protect it. He comes down and SG-1 holds him at gunpoint. They offer to help him defeat Quetesh but need his help, so they offer an alliance. Teal’c agrees and provides a power device for the Stargate. The System Lords begin to bombard the facility and they manage to escape through the Stargate just in time as the building comes down around them.
The group arrives at Ba’al’s base on Praxion, which contains the time travel device which he created. The device tracks solar flares throughout the galaxy and is capable of directing a wormhole into their magnetic field to reach precise times. Sam begins to decipher the mechanism as Quetesh arrives in orbit above and Jaffa start beaming into the chamber. Mitchell, Daniel, Teal’c, and the Jaffa fight a holding action while Sam tries to find the precise solar flare that they need. The closest one she can find is one that will take them to 1929. Quetesh’s Jaffa pick off their opponents one by one: Daniel goes down, and then Sam is killed just as she activates the wormhole to 1929. Teal’c hold off Quetesh’s Jaffa long enough for Mitchell to dive into the Stargate, then he’s shot down as well. Quetesh arrives to gloat over her fallen foe, but the mortally wounded Teal’c declares that he’ll die free… and activates a bomb, destroying everyone along with the base.
1939
In the Atlantic Ocean, the freighter Achilles is dodging U-boats and carrying a mysterious cargo. The ship starts to shake and the captain sends his mate down to the cargo hold to check the cargo: a large crate addressed to Catherine Langford. The mate finds a bearded man waiting for him: Cameron Mitchell. Mitchell has several rifles and gives one to the mate, and they set an ambush. The wormhole expands outward through the side of the ship and Ba’al and his Jaffa come through. Mitchell and the mate gun them down, putting a bullet in Ba’al’s head for good measure. The captain comes down and wonders what happened, and he and Mitchell look out on the ocean.
The Present
Jack and SG-1 watch as Ba’al undergoes the extraction process. His Goa’uld symbiote is removed and the Tokra destroy it and declare that the last System Lord is dead. The team wonders what Ba’al meant by his earlier threats. Jack offers to buy everyone lunch and Vala chooses to remain with Ba’al’s host to help him acclimate to life without a symbiote.
Back on Earth, Mitchell, Daniel, and Teal’c are preparing to head out for lunch as they consider Ba’al’s last words. As they leave, a photo in Mitchell’s locker can be seen: Cameron, with his grandfather.

Michael Shanks plays blacklisted spy Victor in a recurring role on “Burn Notice.” ( Sci Fi Channel )
Calling from atop the CN Tower in Toronto, where he’s on a family vacation with wife Lexa Doig and their children, “Stargate SG-1″ star Michael Shanks is happy to take time to talk about his latest TV venture.
On Thursday, he launched a recurring role on the USA Network espionage dramedy “Burn Notice.” He’s playing Victor, a blacklisted spy sent to Miami by Carla (Tricia Helfer), the new handler of also-blacklisted spy Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan), to wrangle Michael into supplying technical assistance for a new operation.
“It’s one of those roles where I get to chew every bit of scenery in town,” Shanks says, “which is always fun to play. When you have that kind of artistic license to go big or go home, it can be a bit of a romp.” In addition, it afforded Shanks a chance to leave Canada and warm up in the Florida sunshine.
“It’s Miami,” he says, “so it’s hard to be in a bad mood there.
“I’m doing the last three episodes of the season. I’m not entirely sure what the story line is. Matt (executive producer Matt Nix) teased me with a few tidbits, which I can’t really reveal.” Unfortunately, Shanks didn’t get to do any scenes with Bruce Campbell, who plays Michael’s spy buddy Sam Axe.
“Bruce is a personal hero of mine,” Shanks says. “Guys of my generation, after watching ‘Army of Darkness’ or the ‘Evil Dead’ movies — Bruce becomes a type of superhero to you.”
Most recently, Shanks could be seen in the DVD release of “Stargate: Continuum,” a stand-alone movie featuring the “SG-1″ characters.
Last month, at Comic-Con International in San Diego, “Continuum” writer and executive producer Michael Wright said he’s been asked to write a script for another “SG-1″ movie, but, as Shanks says, “That’s, of course, far off from us getting in front of the camera to do it.”
“It was my first big job, and it’s been going on for a dozen years now, and it still goes on.”
According to Shanks, development continues on “Rage of Angels,” a TV-series project he’s working on with “SG-1″ co-star Christopher Judge. The fantasy pilot casts Judge as the angel Gabriel, with Shanks as Lucifer.
“It looks like a great, well- respected show-runner has come onboard and is working on a seven- year plan for it,” Shanks says. “I get all of my information from Christopher, so I have to take everything with a boulder of salt.”
He has no plans to appear on “Sanctuary,” the new Sci Fi Channel series from “SG-1″ and “Stargate Atlantis” star Amanda Tapping, premiering Oct. 3.

Michael Shanks may be forever known as Daniel Jackson to “Stargate SG-1″ fans everywhere, but an actor has to eat and take on new challenges.
Shanks, who did a three-part story in Fox’s “24″ last year, is now making a move over to “Burn Notice” on the USA network where he takes on a recurring role of a blacklisted spy named Victor.
The episode, which airs Aug. 14 at 10 p.m., features Shanks as a reckless man who doesn’t seem to care too much how many innocent people he victimizes. Shanks will have a chance to work with another popular science-fiction icon, Tricia Helfer of “Battlestar Galactica.” who plays Carla, uses Victor for her operations, sending him first to Miami where “Burn Notice” is filmed.
Even with his new somewhat regular gig on “Burn Notice,” Shanks has remained active in the Stargate universe. He recently appeared in the direct-to-DVD film “Stargate Continuum” and will reprise Daniel Jackson for an upcoming two-episode arc in “Stargate: Atlantis” on SciFi Channel. Shanks also has been busy on different telefilms that are being prepped for Lifetime, Hallmark and even the SciFi Channel.
Stargate fans clamored to get Shanks back on the show when he left midway through “SG-1’s” run, but now they’ll have a chance to see the actor quite a bit, even with his Stargate series off the air

In-brief: Pleasantly delighted.
In-detail: Following the decidedly average Stargate: The Ark of Truth, I wasn’t really holding out too much hope for the second movie. It sounded tagged-on, perhaps even somewhat unnecessary.
I was wrong.
Stargate: Continuum might well be unnecessary, and even unrelated to the Ark of Truth and anything Ori-related, but it is very, very good.
Clocking in at around 1 hour and 30 minutes, the movie deals with SG-1 becoming trapped in an alternate timeline; one fabricated by Baal as a last-ditch attempt to control Earth and the universe. It’s the perfect setting for plenty of cameos, lots of action and some nice, fun settings.
In other words, it would have been exceedingly easy to screw up in some way. This has been what Stargate producers have done best over the last three or four years: take great ideas and half-fulfil them. Not here. Continuum hits the mark. Why? Well, for a number of reasons.
Firstly, the use of character. The producers choose to focus on SG-1 (Mitchell, Carter, Jackson, Teal’c and Vala) and Baal. They are the integral characters to the story. I was relieved to see the writer’s also resisted the temptation to try and use this to develop Mitchell and Vala excessively. Sure, they both get nice character moments, but so does everyone. They’re treated like team members, rather than the new guys who need air-time.
The others are dealt with in relation to their importance during their time in the show. O’Neill’s role is prominent, yet the writers didn’t try to overplay it. They didn’t go, “O’Neill’s back, let’s make the movie around Richard Dean Anderson’s undeniable talent and make it seem forced”. Perhaps the strongest aspect of RDA’s appearance is that it seems completely natural. He’s there long enough to make an impact, not long enough to seem forced or contrived. Full marks on that.
The focus on SG-1 also drives the plot. In a story with so many potential distractions, it’s great to be able to keep track of the team and follow them rather than try and delve into countless backstories. SG-1 provide the focus, and simply put, it works. As a result, casual fans and die-hards should enjoy this movie.
The production is excellent as well. Some of the sets are fantastic, including the USS Achilles and Baal’s time chamber. The use of real-settings such as the Air Force Hanger and the Arctic shoot provide for some really expensive looking shots. You can tell money was put into this movie, and it tells far more than in Ark of Truth. The Goa’uld fleet visuals are great, as are the F16/Glider/MiG fight sequences. Some of the effects are a little suspect (the city and the pyramid at the beginning) and leaves you to wonder why the inconsistency in effects standards on Stargate? Some are excellent, others are a little dodgy; often within minutes of each other.
It was great to see all the Stargate alumni on screen once more. Apophis, Major Davis, Kronos, Yu, Hammond, President Hayes… it feels like a real celebration of the last eleven years of Stargate SG-1. I must confess, I found it very difficult watching Don S. Davis’s performance of General Hammond, given his recent passing. Rest in peace, Don. You are a star.
The plot is magnificent, in my opinion. A little bit of everything. You have the pace and the fun of an action thriller, coupled with some great character moments (O’Neill’s fury at Daniel suggesting his son had committed suicide being one, or Daniel accepting he’s going to lose a leg as another). You’ve got the cleverness of a great science-fiction plot, weaving time-travel together with an established villain who, above all, has very believable motive. The whole jaunt may be a little unrealistic, and time-scales sped up for the sake of entertainment, but hell: this is what SG-1 always excelled at. It’s a perfect representation of the best of the show. Sure, it’s a little silly - but it’s fun, and above all, it’s good.
Standout performances? Hard to say. Cliff Simon was fantastic as Baal, so I’d have to say he would possibly get my vote. There was a nice balance of serious/humorous for Richard Dean Anderson, but he simply wasn’t in it enough for his undeniable talent to really echo around the movie. Ben Browder, Amanda Tapping and Michael Shanks all performed solidly, particularly Ben. Mitchell felt like a character who had been there from the beginning, gelling perfectly, even in scenes with O’Neill. Strong work from the Farscape man. I felt a little underwhelmed by Christopher Judge and Claudia Black, but the script wasn’t really a showcase for either of them, so it’s perhaps unfair to be too critical.
As with Ark of Truth, the music sounded great, really complimenting what was seen on screen. It sounded excellent, and was once again great to hear the original Stargate anthem make an appearance. If there were any critique, it would be that when Apophis was first revealed, the dramatic clichéd reveal music was a bit over the top. But I’m nitpicking as usual.
Perhaps most interestingly about Continuum: when the movie ended, I felt fulfilled. If this is all the Stargate we’re ever going to get, I feel okay about that. Some people wanted something bigger, more epic. I simply don’t feel that could’ve been achieved withou t losing some of the integrity of the entertainment. This was a celebration of ten years, and a good one at that. It succeeds. It provides homage and it entertains. There could be more movies (talk of a third revolving around the character of Jack O’Neill is floating around the interweb - hurry, he’s putting on weight fast!). Should that come to pass, I would like it to finish. An O’Neill bookend would be welcome in my mind, but let’s not run this into the ground. It’s ready to end. Continuum would end it with dignity - one final hurrah that it is clear was enjoyed by all - cast and crew.
