Stargate SG-1 The SYFY series was original, which means that the budget has never approached the cost of an average ring of Blue bloodAnd the most expensive part of the huge manual chain was a hand -made life at a total cost, in 1995, at a value of $ 100,000. For this reason, when Colonel Jacques O’Neill wandered in an open gate in the “Windows of Extract” episode, everyone in the group had carried their breath and had to put their confidence in Richard Dean Anderson. Anderson was holding with the actual golf balls, directly in the expensive pillar, but as with everything involved in the episode of time, it was perfectly gathered.

Opportunities

The time episode is a common cup for any long -term chain, and when Stargate SG-1 The fourth season came, and it is time to present to put an interesting development on this concept. O’Neel and Teal’c (Christopher Judge) Finding themselves in a time circle after exploring a planet suffering from a huge solar event. foreign The archaeologist Malaki (Robin Musli) raises a strange device, besieged O’Neill and Teal’c, the only two people who realize what is happening, which represents a problem given that the solution is hidden behind the translation of ancient code.

Every day, Jackson (Michael Shanks) tries to decipher the meaning of the code that they portrayed on the surface of the planet, but with only 10 hours in each of them, there is not enough time. O’Neill and Teal’c tries to help Jackson but in the end they give up and decide to take advantage of each stand -alone episode so that he has no effect in the following. What comes after that is one of the best serials in Stargate SG-1 “Windows of Opportunities” has strengthened as fans.

For this reason the pair begins to play the golf with active Stargate, which raises the anger of other SG-1 officers, in one of the best pictures of the entire concession. Teal’c begins to hit the door again to the pilot instead of being exposed to it at the beginning of each episode, and the most impressive, takes the pottery (with its improvement in each episode a wonderful visual gag), and jamming. Richard Dean Anderson turned out to be a skilled sorcery and “the windows of opportunities” were his only chance to show his hidden talent on the screen.

Favorite episode for fans

Time rings are crowned with leaving O’Neill Stargate SG-1, kissing Carter immediately (Amanda clicks), The memory that he carries with him as soon as the puzzle is solved behind the rings. It is an enjoyable moment in an episode full of them, so it is not surprising that the talented writing team at Paul Mullie and Joseph Malozzi will continue to write the loved ones “Wormhole X-Treme” and “200.” In a quick moment of smart stories novel, they even included a line in the end about the period in which TOK’RA tried to get an animal for them, which is three months, which means with some rapid mathematics from the handkerchief, if each episode was 10 hours, spent three months besieged, and O’Neill and Teal’c a total of 216 episodes (90 days 24 hours is 2.16 hours).

“Windows of Extract” sticks among all other episodes in the entire concession, thanks to the effective way to shoot the time episode in which it came under the required operation time, which requires Anderson and a judge filling time with improvised scenes. In doing this, surprisingly, this is the only episode of Stargate SG-1 Where every scene that was filmed for air, did not leave anything on the floor of the cut room. The end result is a comic episode at all that still corresponds to today and a testimony for everyone’s luck that Ricard, Dean of Anderson, has not eventually finished the most expensive pillar of the group.
