It's not entirely clear whether Simmons died from infection or not in the last episode with the 100,000 year old alien probe.

Also I am continuously flummoxed by how much Goa'uld weaponry and technology the team just leaves on the ground. They could have dozens of Jaffa staffs back at HQ by now for analysis and reproduction. But they always just grab one only to make sure Teal'c still has one.

Like Teal'c and O'Neill just killed like a full battalion of troops all carrying staffs, and didn't even carry them back to the cave all the people were hiding in to help with defense.

In at least one episode they show they have a tech horde under maximum security and it probably requires multiple authorities to sign off on even accessing any of the tech on a case-by-case basis.

That's good. Teal'c's staff seems like they use it as a doorstop sometimes

Or the thing where you're running from some guys and you go through a double door, and then you slide the Jaffa staff through the two door handles so the guys chasing you on the other side can't open the door

If you ask Teal'c to do paperwork he just kinda stares at you until you stop talking.

Rewatched the movie today and I gotta say that Shanks is a much better Daniel Jackson than Spader.

How dare you, James Spader's nuanced and delicate touch, on a character suffering both from desperate loneliness and fractured vindication, spurred him and his career further onwards and upwards to his next film - Crash.

I am definitely digging James Spader's more recent career over his start.

Also it's hilarious that Shanks isn't much like Daniel. He's apparently a good hockey player and played on the Stargate team in a league with other Vancouver productions.

Last episode: Teal'c deals with his feelings about being cuckolded by his wife.
This episode: Daniel Jackson deals with his feelings about being cuckolded by his wife. Also Ra's son Heru'ur shows up to kidnap his wife. Daniel Jackson hosed Heru-ur's mom by the way.
B plot: A reporter has information that will lead to the arrest of Hilary Clinton

SG3 seems like the dedicated heavy duty Marine team. I don't ever recall hearing about SG2 even once.

I liked how cleanly they were able to resolve the ethical problem of Teal'c's wife remarrying (due to Teal'c being gone for like six months), luckily he was breathing everybody so Teal'c's best friend disintegrated him with no moral complications.

Also why are we sending his family to the land of light? I don't think anyone in the land of light knows how to tie their shoes. Live on Earth with Teal'c!

Yep. He calls in "markers" and everything to try to help his daughter, and she wants to tell him "Dad, I'm in SG1, I go offworld like every day" but she can't.
