Only one criticism, why didn't Dixon (Baldwin) warn the others on his team about watching out for possible hostiles after he received the message from Hammond? They looked like they were on a stroll in a park after receiving orders to report back to the gate. Bregman (Saul Rubinek) reminds me of the Burke (Paul Reiser) character from Aliens. It was funny how the alarms just happen to go off when Jack was starting to cuss at Kinsey on camera. Heroes:part 1 is an excellent setup for part 2. All the characters really shine in part 2 and have powerful and memorable moments. Don't miss it.

Oh I won't!!!
This episode was GREAT!!!!
I love when a show starts out with one tone, this one being extremely funny and lighthearted, then goes logically to another different tone, dark and serious. There was a great sense of an emergency slowly brewing just under the surface. EXCELLENT writing.
Now don't tell me what happens. But if Adam Baldwin survives I would love to see him take charge of SG1 since Richard Dean Anderson has chosen to reduce his participation to a part time role. Baldwin has that grittyness that I think really helped the early shows chemistry. Plus when you give him a good role, Baldwin just shines!
btw- I don't think that his order was illogical. His team was going to be gone in 15 minutes from the planet. He assumed there was no need to panic, just do it efficiently. Though I'm wondering why there was no communication with the OTHER SG teams on the planet. I believe SG3 and 9 were with them!

If someone, like wifey...lol..j/k , told you to get ready or you had to be at work in 15 minutes, I would expect a more lively or rushed activity. I mean, how far out on patrol from the gate where they? And since they knew it wasn't their scheduled time to leave yet, it wouldn't be hard to guess something was up.

I don't know... These last few eps of SG1 are leading up to the new SG series "Atlantis". There was an article a week or two ago on SciFi Wire where Baldwin (Jayne ) said he was trying to get a role as one of the new team.
I'm guessing he got it and he'll be continuing on in "SG Atlantis". Just PURE speculation on my part.
My only hope is, that if he is the new lead for "SG Atlantis" he leaves his schedule open for the "Firefly" movie!!!
Thanks,
Firefly

Baldwin will probably be on Atlantis if the show ever airs. RDA will be promoted. This will reduce his role if and when the show comes back. Brigadier O'Neill will be in charge like hammond is now. I don;'t know who they will cast as the lead however. It would be nice to see Richard Hatch or Dirk Benedict leading SG-1 teams. Thoughts?

No offense intended, but I don't think so. With the SG1 movies and the 8th (last) season coming up, people want to see the 4 actors they followed all these years in them, not 3 plus a newbie. If anybody, Sam would be the leader of SG1. It was hard for some to accept Jonas Quinn (Corin Nemec) as Daniel's replacement in season 6. And you have the Jack and Sam question to answer for all the shippers. So I expect Jack to assign himself to some SG1 missions or bring back Jonas for a few episodes. The Daniel-Jonas interaction in "Fallen" and "Homecoming" was quite good.

Even though someone "spoiled" me on the BIG event in Heroes Pt 2 I am still looking forward to it, as I have heard it is one of the best eps ever. But VERY VERY VERY intense.

Jonas Quinn was one of the best additions to the show. I loved the episode where he and Teal'C are in a bar having gingerales. Nonetheless the town is inhabited by immature Goa'ulds who only are able to come out when the people go to sleep.

okay... saw part two...it was incredibly intense...
I loved her! I thought she was adorable. and a good character. But I guess this makes sense in that they are heading toward the end.
This was a slightly different show. The main character was not one of the main 4 but the news reporter. Infact it seemed that Don Davis (Gen. Hammond) got more air time and a stronger part than any of the main actors. Man that man can act! He has had the kind of rule that wasn't needed much from day to day. And when he was included he only got a few lines per episode. But he was dang good no matter how few lines he got. If he only had a line to speak, he with that one line made you feel that there was a man feeling emotions and with depth!
The show was very tense. Closer to West Wing than the normal SG1 episode in style. But VERY VERY good. Moore if you are reading this, THIS is it. Realism. Characters that you care about. Issues and plot that are intricate and touch the essence of what humanity is.
Damn good show.

The one thing I really wished they woulda done in this episode was to put in a little more Janet. She got taken out so abruptly. She had hardly any air time this episode and now she is gone!

Janet's death was kind of a surprise to me even though I heard rumors of it because the commercials led you to believe that it would be O'neill dead. O'neill is my favorite character and I'm glad he's not dead but I'll sure miss Janet too.

I was a little shocked that it was Janet that bought it, but, the actor said she didn't want to continue for an eighth season. I might've read that on Gateworld, i'm not sure. I'll see if I can find the article.
But, I'm sad Janet died. She was one of my favorite characters. I am glad that O'Neill isn't dead though.
