Stargate SG-1 finally had a good episode last night. It seems, with the exception of a few weeks ago, their best episodes are written by either Michael Shanks or Chris Judge who both happen to be castmembers. Of course the NID would try to access the Go'auld memory any way they could. Reasons for O'Neill not to be in episodes have just been getting stupider. He was "still recovering?" From what?

I think that's an iffy wager at best but I digress.)
Finn Jones and Jessica Henwick are great as Danny Rand and Colleen Wing. Danny to me is just as a 25 year old man who spent 15 years cut off from the world as he knew it in a monastery (think ster…
