I don't recall the episode title, but if you remember the one where
Sam was followed home by the invisible alien who was supposedly the
same entity that MS had ascended to, then this is quite possibly the
avenue for his return.
The show is incomplete without him..

Additionally, season 6, to be produced by Sci-Fi.. has me worried.
Showtime originally produced with Brad Wright and Jon Glassner...
lately, I only see Brad Wright's name.. what happened to Glassner?

Now I shall have to wade through commercials between season 6..
Sci-Fi commercial infested sg1.. the horror.

Does anyone know what happened to www.sg1archive.net? It seems to no
longer be online.

Thanks,
DL.

we know no different in the UK - SG1 is on a commercial channel. I do
remember the first time I saw Star Trek with commercials (It was first on
the BBC here) - that was weird! Mind you, not so wierd as MASH with the
laughter track! it was shown here first without it - MUCH better.

I remember seeing it on BBC2, and occasionally someone would forget to
flick the switch to knock off the laughter track. I see it's being shown
from the beginning on Paramount from the 16th Feb, so if it's shown sans
laughter track, I may try and watch it when it doesn't clash with other
stuff. I did intend to watch it through when Sky showed it a few years
ago, but they kept the laughter track on and I couldn't watch it like that.

The episode was "Ascension," and yup, should the writers come up with something
good enough to entice MS back, he can return in that manner, although if Daniel
returns and become corporeal again, I'd think he'd hang around the base. Maybe
toward the end of season 6?

Not sure which season you're watching. Jonathan Glassner left, not sure when,
and did The INvisible Man, which was cancelled by the Sci-Fi channel. Aieee...
It was a fun show.

Bo-Flex, e-trade stuff, yup, the horrors. Don't forget the Sci-Fi bug in the
bottom right corner, and they have a tendency at times to go to commercial TOO
quickly and chop the end off a scene!

Don't know. sorry.

What time of the day or night is it going to be on, Elaine? If they're
starting from the beginning, I might watch it too.

I agree. There are many other enjoyable things on Stargate which don't tie
directly to Daniel.
Keeping an open mind, you may just end up loving it even though he isn't
there. :-D

Well do you know what the laugh track means. Is it that we Americans
are so dumb that we have to be told to laugh? Or is it a ploy to try to
make us think that tired old material is really new and fresh. (Not that
M*A*S*H was old and tired.) Or is it just another stupid American scheme
to annoy the rest of the world? <g>

I don't remember if it was Erny Kovacks or Red Skelton that I heard
say this, but I remember listening to an interview some time ago with
someone who claimed to have been responsible for the use of a laugh
track and he said that what started out as a cheap effect for a comedy
sketch became something that he would regret for the rest of his life.
He said that its widespread use took the dignity out of comedy.

I'd have to agree with that last part.

Thanks Paul, that could be do-able, although if it is on every day, that may
pose a problem.

It was shut down afer a number of complaints were made to the FBI, the FCC
and the US Postal service about the mail fraud that was being run by Adam
McGaughey from that site.

It is, but being Paramount it'll get repeated very quickly. I've seen some
episodes of Grosse Point and Married with Children 4 times since September,
so unless you mind seeing them a little out of order, you'll be OK.

They do repeat a lot, don't they, although I've been waiting for repeats of
"Soap" for forever now.


Do the MASH episodes have names? I hate it when a show decides not to put
the names of the episodes into the credits, it's hard to know which ones I
missed.

I'd like to see some of those, my mum and dad were really into that when
it was first shown in the UK.

As for Paramount's repeat strategy, I love it, I'm slowly getting a pretty
full collection of some of my favourite stuff ;-)

They do have names, pass on whether they are shown on screen, Paramount's
website [*] has ep names and synopsees (sp?) from Mar 1 listed,
before that is currently blank.

Of course, I'm sure they also respect his choice to leave. And understand
whether he returns or not is
between him and TPTB. Not that I want to speak for any of them or anything.
