Overall he was one of the less-interesting Goa'uld (especially compared with Baal and Anubis), so I don't really get why they kept bringing him back. Like the writers were challenging themselves to come up with ever-more-implausible ways to recover from death.

More of Sokar and Baal would have been good.

I think Apophis is currently tied with Daniel being the most died / resurrected characters on the show. How many times did this dude "die" and come back? 3 or 4?

Also, shitting up the Star Trek thread talking about Stargate is far better than talking about Nu Trek. Talking about Nu Trek makes me want to kill myself.

No. Looks like the Worf one.

Looking it up, it actually was an error, the hand device dialing I was thinking about was Nox Space Magic, and Future Human Tech from 1969.

Uh, to not totally shit up the Trek thread with Stargate sperging, has no one watched SNW since Hemmer?

I have yet to bother on to of being busy, and it's seems like everyone I know has likewise had the wind taken out of their sails on the show since then.

Nope. Once that happened, I can't be bothered.

It's the same premise as Game of Thrones.

"Here's what we're going to do: kill off everyone interesting and make all of the surviving characters have a stroke. It's gonna be brilliant!"

Joss Whedon and its consequences, etc.

Go rewatch Buffy: the quips to regular dialog ratio is a lot smaller than you'd think. I blame Amy Acker. She loses all her annoying shy girl crap but it's replaced with manic pixie crap.

I cannot stand Joss Whedon nor his work, AT ALL. The Cabin in the Woods is the only good thing I liked. That's it.

Too late.

This is how retarded Stargate fans are, that they acknowledge there's a Stargate thread on KF but proceed to fuck up an entirely different, non-Stargate thread.

If they weren't retarded, they wouldn't be Stargate fans and wouldn't shit up any thread with this crap. But they were, and they are, and so they shit up two threads instead of one.

Thus a Stargate fan is twice as retarded as your normal, everyday, run of the mill retard. One who likes, say, Firefly.

Simple really.

I liked Apophis. They probably used him as much as they did because he was so closely tied with Teal'c and Daniel Jackson. And he was a good "idiot that stumbled into power" what with more or less being in the right place at the right time after Kurt Russell and James Spader nuked Ra. Somewhat menacing but mostly through sheer numbers rather than cunning, which made Ball and Anubis much more imposing.

And there is always more screen time for Amaterasu if she wants it. Yu was pretty cool, too. I liked how his Jaffa was basically entirely in on the game and kept things together.

With many episodes co-written by Chuck Lorre.💀

Then when Roseanne gets more control in later seasons it mainly addresses liberal social issues (supported gay marriage in '95), before Roseanne goes maga. Young Roseanne would more likely have been a Bernie supporter but she flipped. Prescient, in my opinion.

iirc legends are Whedon had a hand beyond just writing, like the Milk and Cheese t shirts and the Godzilla on the mantle

She probably figured out Bernie was full of shit even before the internet made it public how he felt about breadlines.
 
I find it interesting that Trek is supposedly doing better than ever yet they've killed off approx 2/3 their books.

Used to be you could find 2 or 3 in Kroger & Walmart

And when you do actually see them in bookstores it's these faggy oversized ( and overpriced ) paperbacks

Christopher Bennett ( TMP Era content ) and Greg Cox ( mostly TOS members berries stuff ) seem to be the old regulars the line is hanging on by

David Mack is an annoying shit I've never found readable , and is really fond of writing in his blogger buddies

Una McCormack seems to be busy writing Garak & Bashir slash

Not been interested enough to pick up the one John Jackson Miller did

And it looks like Beyer is still cropping one out now and then when she gets a break from writing the nuTrek Bible

I was feeling a bit nostalgic for Trek this week so I picked up her book The Never Ending Sacrifice. It has some of the best reviews of any Trek book besides A Stitch In Time.

Damn I just looked on Amazon at used prices for A Stitch in Time and they're all $100 plus, I didn't realize it was that much of a collector's item.

Stay away from Enigma Tales then.

which is a real shame because most of it is Doctor Pulaski mucking about postwar Cardassia and is funny

The insistence on Gay Garak really soured it

She was my tutor for my undergraduate degree and spent quite a lot of time during tutorials talking about all the fanfic she wrote, most of it being Doctor Who slash fiction, so that really doesn't surprise me.
