Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1997, the series "Stargate SG-1" first aired on American cable television and over the course of nearly nine seasons has developed its own unique mythological superstructure. "Stargate SG-1" focuses on the dynamic relationships among the show's main characters, the four-person first-contact team: SG-1. Each week they are taken to new planets where ancient human civilizations have been seeded as slave populations by the show's arch-villains, the parasitic, body-snatching Goa'uld. The series' concerns therefore range from ancient cultures and contemporary politics, to aliens and advanced technologies, all given life with award-winning special effects and anchored by the central icon of the Stargate. "Stargate SG-1" has blossomed into a series driven by fierce fan loyalty, with lively internet discussion groups, growing 'textual poaching' in fan fiction and art, and popular annual conventions. It has also generated a spin-off, "Stargate: Atlantis". In this welcome critical celebration, contributors discuss "Stargate SG-1's" characters, cinematic techniques, its themes and its place within science fiction television and film, along with its interaction with fan fiction, its Canadian setting, its ideological framing in the American point-of-view, and the tensions between its humanistic morality and its representation of military/political objectives. There is also assessment of the currently fledgling "Stargate: Atlantis". Written for both fans and scholars, the book also includes an episode guide to the first eight seasons of "Stargate SG-1" and to the first season of "Stargate: Atlantis", as well as a glossary of terms.

Download or read book Science Wars through the Stargate written by Steven Gil and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-10-08 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of an elite team of scientists and soldiers who travel to other worlds through an alien-built portal, Stargate SG-1 gave its viewers a weekly dose of spectacle and high adventure. Over its ten-season run (1997-2007), the series explored the interactions of the scientific and military cultures represented by its characters, as well as the place of science in society. The initial airing of Stargate SG-1 coincided with the “Science Wars,” a highly public clash among scholars and public intellectuals over the nature and value of scientific knowledge. Critics of science argued that it was merely one form of knowledge among many, subject to biases and blind spots imposed by the culture in which it was created. Defenders of science—mostly scientists themselves—contended that it possessed a unique ability to uncover universal truths, and thus was uniquely valuable to society. In Science Wars through the Stargate: Explorations of Science and Society in Stargate SG-1, Steven Gil offers the first in-depth analysis of the series and places it in the context of contemporary debates about the nature of scientific thought. Gil contends that representations of science within SG-1 can be more fully understood through the prism of the Science Wars. Scientific ideas put forth in SG-1 demonstrate how such complex intellectual exchanges and debates have a place in popular culture and can be further understood through these fictional articulations. Although SG-1 serves as the principal case study, the analysis also casts light on the role and position of science in science fiction television more generally. The long-form narrative of Stargate SG-1 enabled it to engage, in sophisticated ways, with many of the questions at issue in the Science Wars. As the author illustrates, the show presented a complex, sophisticated portrait of science and scientists at a time when the scientific enterprise was under intense public scrutiny. Science Wars through the Stargate will be of interest to science fiction scholars and fans of the series, but also to those interested in the public’s evolving understanding of science and its role in society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stargate SG-1 was two different shows in one. There were episodes where SG-1 fought the Guauld, or replicators, or the Ori, in giant battles. The show often had tremendously creative ideas about blowing up suns or travels to other galaxies or interdimensional or parallel dimension travel. Jack O'Neill's dry wit was very funny; Samantha Carter's expressions were very vivid; Daniel had a great wit of his own and was a good companion for Jack, and Teal'c was very funny in his own subtle way. A lot of the episodes were very exciting and well written.But there were also episodes that were not so exciting and well written, those focusing on small children, Unases, natural disasters, or "let us search warehouses on Earth" episodes, to name a few.The purpose of this book is to show how the lesser stories could have been improved, as well as how the good stories could have been even better.

Book excerpt: A stitch in time... When a Stargate malfunction throws Colonel Cameron Mitchell, Dr. Daniel Jackson, Colonel Sam Carter and Teal'c back in time, they only have minutes to live. But their rescue, by an unlikely duo-General Jack O'Neill and Vala Mal Doran-is only the beginning of their problems. Ordered to rescue an Asgard also marooned in 1947, SG-1 find themselves at the mercy of history. While Jack, Daniel, Sam and Teal'c become embroiled in the Roswell aliens conspiracy, Cam and Vala are stranded in another timeline, desperately searching for a way home. As the effects of their interference ripple through time, the consequences for the future are catastrophic. Trapped in the past, SG-1 can only watch as their world is overrun by a terrible invader... Roswell "You." The lieutenant's nightstick swung around in an arc. He stabbed it in Daniel and Jack's direction as he approached them. "Who? Us?" Jack said, adopting a well-practiced expression of cluelessness that worked so rarely, Daniel wondered why he bothered to try it on anyone. "Names!" Jack smiled disarmingly. "Ah...names. Mulder and Scully." "Where do you live?" "Colorado," Daniel replied, before Jack could get too carried away. "We're just passing through town, lieutenant." "Where ya headed?" "New York," Daniel said without thinking. "Kinda taking the scenic route, ain't, ya?" "But there's so much to see," Jack said. "Little green men, and flying saucers... Oh, and arresting innocent citizens eating in a diner." "Jack!" Daniel hissed in warning, but it was too late. The damage was done. The MP's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Wise guy, huh?" The lieutenant grabbed Jack by the arm. "Outside. The both of you. You're coming, too."
