I just got finished watching Episode 18, and WOW!
While the episode itself was not extremely exciting, the jabs that the writers were taking at the SciFi Channel were phenominal!
Initially, I caught the comment Cam was making to TechSgt Sylar during the opening sequence and thought, "hmmm...I wonder if that was a jab?"
And then, heh heh, the dialogue between Carter and Jacix almost made me shoot Diet Coke through my nose! I looked at my wife and said, "Well, what do they have to lose?"
Even my wife, who doesn't care for Science Fiction had to sit there with eyes wide and jaw dropped. I thought it was awesome!
If you can't tell, I hate SciFi Channel for killing my show. While it had a longer run than our beloved Firefly, I just can never get enough Stargate: SG-1.
And that's my 2cents.

Being that this thread has absolutely no plot points revealed in it, I'm not sure why it's plastered with Spoiler warnings.

Because at some point, someone is going to talk about how Vala's dad sucks, or how they foiled the Jafa plan or some such, and I just wanted to be sure everyone was aware, right from the get-go, that spoilers may ensue.
I'm giving everyone ample opportunity NOT to continue reading if they don't want the episode spoiled. I'm just thoughtful like that.
Now, since you asked about 'em, here are the actual spoiling points I was making:
Select to view spoiler:
The first line of dialogue for the episode, you could hear hear Cam Mitchell saying, "They cancelled it, really? I hadn't even known the new season had started."
Obviously this was a jab at SciFi channel for the cancelling of the show.
And then there was this gem:
Select to view spoiler:
Jacix: "It's no wonder. I don't mind telling you I'm a bit disappointed in this facility. I was expecting...more."
Sam: "Well, at times, so do we. But the truth is, the Stargate program just doesn't get the support it used to from the people in charge."
Jacix: "Why not?"
Dr. Lee: "Eureka!! One down, 12 to go!"
Jacix: "That's too bad. After all your Stargate program has accomplished for this network of planets,I would think the decision makers would show it the respect it deserves."
Sam: *nods knowingly* "Yep."
At least they are getting their digs in, and I'm liking it.

A buddie of mine and myself have been talking lately about how it seems like the show is lacking story power. It's not as good as it used to be. Now wether thats because O'niel is gone or not I can't be sure. But it doesn't have the same oomph it used to.
Don't get me wrong I LOVE SG-1, I would like to see it do a few Movies before it goes completely away.

I think that's why SciFi has given up the ghost on continuing to fund more seasons. The majority of viewerss have spoken (both on-line and through the Neilson ratings) that the show is just not the same with out Richard Dean Anderson's character, Jack O'Neill.
I happen to be of the minority and have throughly enjoyed Claudia Black's witty and humorous character, Vala. While Ben Browder's character, Cam Mitchell, is ok (I think Ben is a good actor, however his portrayal of Cam is little different than his character on Farscape) he was unable to carry on where Jack left off.
I would seriously have enjoyed another 2 or 3 seasons of SG-1. But if you thought that the stories were left a little flat since Jack left, these last 10 episodes will probably be very dissatisfying to you. The last 10 episodes add alot more humor to the charaters that you might not expect (i.e. Teal'c's suggestion that the dragon's name might be "Puff"). While humorous, it takes a wide step around the character building that has been done for 10 years.
Don't get me wrong, if anyone is at all like me, they enjoy the individual stories for what they are - stories and fun entertainment. But if you seeking them to follow the story as it has been building up, you might be a bit disappointed. However I still encourage those who have enjoyed SG1 to watch the final 10 episodes. If anything to help bring closure to a long running series.

Also what season is this final one?
The final 10 Episodes are the last half of season 10. So if finding the episodes, they are 11 through 20. 20 will air sometime this week, I believe Tuesday, as the torret usually goes up Tuesday night.
My wife asked me the other day, "Since you've watched 'em all ahead of time, what are you gonna do when they air on SciFi?"
To which I replied, "Watch 'em again. Any questions?" heh heh
Oh, and to the question if Morena is in the Episodes:
The always awesome and hot Morena as Adria:

The hottest Gou'auld in the universe:

Unless you are downloading them, or are in the UK, you haven't missed them.
I realize that by posting the glowey-eyed Adria I may have gave a little away...but um...it's the only direction they could have gone, even if the series were going to continue for years to come.
I just find Morena incredibly talented and incredibly hot. And I just gave my wife a reason to be mad at me, after giving her a hard time (jokingly of course) about her oogling of Brendan Frasier's pics on IMDB last night.
Oh, and remember, I warned about spoilers in the title of the thread

Believe me, I'm not worried about spoilers, I'm downloading them.
My "whoa" comment was because I was speachless.
