    I loved his Star Trek reference in his first episode. In case others are wondering,

    He is the leader of a human looking alien race.

    He is explaining his people’s histories and said something like,

    “We were once part of a galactic federation of planets.” He then paused and looked at the camera for a second.

    For those who have not watched it, Stargate is a fantastic series.

    Watch them in order.

    The Movie

    Stargate Sg-1 (the first three or four episodes are kind rough, but stick with it it picks up super quicker and then every episode is fantastic.) Seasons 9 and 10 were just OK and you can stop at season 8 as the show was originally planned to end there.

    Stargate Atlantis is also great. I thought I would be a bad spinoff, but it has been just as good and the cast of characters is really great.

    I have not watched the others yet as I’m near the end of Atlantis still.

    They have tons of references to Trek and show a clear respect towards it. You will also see tons of Trek actors making cameo appearances.

      I love playing Spot the Star Trek actors.

      My personal favourite is when Robert McNeill is killed by John Phillips in CSI. Been a body Robert didn’t get a speaking role but John did.

      Stargate universe was very weird. Dark and brooding, it was quite different than the others.

      I liked it, and wish we had gotten more.
