I think part of my problem with the ori is that, when they were introduced, we still had enough conflict to carry more seasons without them. we had the unrest in the jaffa nation, we had the Trust, we had the ba'al clones, we had the Lucian alliance. so not only did the ori not make sense, they weren't necessary. a zealot spinoff of the Ancients? that get more power by people believing in them? and the Ancients refused to do anything about them (ok yeah that part makes sense lol) I just. don't like the ori. also the "ori plague" being what wiped out the Ancients before they went to Pegasus? that makes no sense!!!! if the ori didn't know the Ancients were in the milky way, how would they plague them? and the ori plague isn't contagious - sg1 got the sickness from that one Ancient in Antarctica. I don't get it I don't like it I'm gonna find a way to not include the ori in my adopting Daniel fic if I have to write new final 2 seasons from scratch

I'll take the goa'uld over the ori any day.

So I’ve just finished watching the entire Stargate SG-1 series from season one episode one right up to season ten episode twenty. It’s taken me eleven months with the Sci-Fi channel. I hadn’t seen it before (I know 😂).

I have to say whilst the final episode was dramatic, it was a let down. Not having Jack there was huge for me. But, I’ll try to find the movies!

And, something weird I noticed, even though Atlantis ran parallel with SG-1 for a few years, there was never a mention of the Ori on Atlantis?!? We had that crossover episode where the Wraith got to Stargate Command and Teal’c and Ronon saved the day. But no Ori in the Pegasus galaxy?!? That seems impossible.

Oh no, oh no, he is seducing me with his deep passion for his field of study and his genuine joy at teaching people about it

before the tower of babel there was only one slur: the human slur

making silly sounds doesn’t always have to serve a purpose and is sometimes done purely for whimsy’s sake

This is what the government doesn’t want to tell you

i think it’s important to spread awareness of flawed scientific practices. date your lineage findings, people! this is how mistakes are made

alright hot take time

I don't like season 9 of sg1 and I feel like the ori aren't plot necessary

I understand why o'neill disappeared to DC, rda quit to be a dad and I absolutely respect that and love that for him. cam Mitchell is a little obnoxious, but I can live with him and he has a complex backstory. and Sam x jack is VERY heavily implied and I love that for them.

I just really don't like the Ori. it doesn't feel like the natural progression of the series, and it seems like they just wanted to replace the goa'uld instead of exploring how the galaxy is dealing with their [goa'uld] defeat. all-powerful, worship-fuelled zealot Ancients? ehhhh not feeling it. I'm still watching the last two seasons, but between this and the oddly excessive amounts of recap episodes I'm standing firm with my "atlantis is my favourite" stance.

I almost wish I could un-watch the handful of season 9 episodes, and you can tell that they wanted to and really should've ended at s7 or 8 (I do like the defeat of anubis, and the character development of the sg1 team in s8, so we could keep that one). the one thing I did like was the Vala arc, she was ✨️fun✨️ and her interactions with Daniel were hilarious. she couldn't be trusted to tell you earth only has one moon, but she was fun about it. but the addition of the ori and this new name for the Ancients/Lanteans/"Altreans", it's just confusing.

if anyone disagrees, please reblog/reply I'd gladly hear your take on this. my mum, who I watch stargate with, think that it's the "natural opposite to the Ancients", that theyre "too perfect and science-driven", and there had to be this religious side to them because that's how it is for humans. I disagree. I think that the Ancients are far from perfect, that half of the stuff that sgc crews go through are because of the Ancients' mess-ups, and Oma and that one lady in atlantis that john was with who think that they should be allowed to help humans are enough opposition.
