A line in the article states that there will be two SG-1 films following the series finale. This isn't technically true. The titles are "Stargate: The Ark of Truth" and "Stargate: Continuum". "SG-1" is not in the title. While it does continue the story from SG-1, it is not SG-1 itself.
Think of it this way: It would be very awkward if Star Trek: Generations were Star Trek: The Next Generation: Generations, followed by Star Trek: The Next Generation: First Contact. The post TNG Star Trek films are not "Next Generation movies". They are their own legitimate films, continuing the story PAST The Next Generation. Same as with SG-1 and these films. You could call this speculation, but the fact that SG-1 is not in the title should be evidence enough.
lol
The above comment is irrelevant... Star Trek: Generations concluded the story of the Enterprise-D, but wasn't called Star Trek: The Next Generation: Generations. The title says it all. Yes, they're SG-1 movies in that they continue the story of SG-1 the group... but SG-1 as a title refers specifically to the TV series. They're movies in their own right.
With the series finale tommorow, can we please refrain from editing this slide. The information currently posted is as acurate as we have it. Wait for tommorow to edit. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.156.183.95 ( talk) 20:45, 12 March 2007 (UTC).
As far as I know, a time dialatation only slows down time, it doesn't/can't reverse it, so how does Teal'c save the ship by activating one? Not to mention, how did they even get a time dialation device anyway?
Vala M 13:10, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
It doesn't really matter, we will find out tommorow, when in the preview, when Teal'c activates it, the explosion on the ship gets smaller, we know that it reverses time, somehow. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.156.183.95 ( talk • contribs)
I’m not going to get into a discussion about if a time dilatation field can only slow down time / doesn't / can't reverse it – I’ll just accept it as this is sci-fi. What I have a slight problem with is the following (It could just be that I’m being overly pedantic / missed something). Didn’t Carter say that everything would go back to the way it was at the instant the time dilation field was created (i.e. when she activated it), and that they could not go back past this point as, “we would have a paradox, and the technology couldn’t handle it”. So, my question is this: how come Teal'c is able to go back in time to BEFORE the instant that Carter activated the time dilation field, to stop her from activating it again?( RaGe 21:46, 14 March 2007 (UTC))
Pretty sure in one of the replicator episodes the replicators reversed the time dialation field to speed up time and create more ships? I'll go find and check... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.107.63.127 ( talk • contribs)
The replicators did not reverse time, they altered the time dialiation field in "New Order" in order to accelerate time and escape the black hole
As to the part about teal'c being able to get to the bridge before carter activated the time dialation devise, i believe she said she would try and send it back to around a minuite before the ship would be struck as any longer and the Asgard computer/core system wouldnt be able to handle the time paradox it would create.-- Marshy12 23:21, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

The episode just finished it's premier on British television. My initial reaction is that films or no... this was the worst episode in StarGate history. I will update the article tomorrow after I've had time to cool down and approach this objectively... because otherwise I'd seriously be tempted to breach the NPOV policy of the wiki... then we'd need nasty clean up and no-one wants that.

Error noticed in article: The last line of the Notes section states "This episode marks the destruction of three more Ori battlecruisers, making a total of four destroyed thus far." However I have just watched the episode, and I recall only two Ori ships were destroyed. The Odyssey was attacked by three Ori ships. They destroyed two and escaped at the end of the episode whilst being fired on by the third. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BigBadaboom0 ( talk • contribs)
Don't forget that to our knowledge 2 ori ships were destroyed at orilla by the explosion, they never made it clear if they were the ones to later engage the odyssey or if they were different ships.

In the episode, Vala asks Daniel how they can distinguish the Asgard (when Thor is beamed in). Daniel replies: "it's the voice" The voice of Thor is done by Michael Shanks, who also plays Daniel. Am I seeing too much in this, or did the writers use this as an inside joke? Maybe it's something for the trivia section. 81.241.224.226 19:29, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Are these Asgard weapons brand spanking new technological achievements of the Asgard, or were they the same weapons used at the battle in "Crusade" theyre Energy Weapons werent very effective in that episode. Baaleos 10:39, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
I'd say they're new weapons and shields, devolped from the info gained by the Asgard ship that surived the first encounter with the Ori ships ( Battle of P3Y-229) Ricky540 00:39, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
“ | NOVAK: Uh, Hermiod wanted to remind you that that our shield strength will be severely diminished without the Zero Point Module tied into our power systems. | ” |
Question about the following segment of the article:
“ | As the final installations are completed, three Ori battlecruisers exit hyperspace and attack the Odyssey. The Asgard beam off the ship, and the Odyssey flees. One Ori ship follows, the others turning on the Asgard. However, the Asgard destroy their own planet, wiping out their race, and probably the Ori ships. With the Odyssey's shields damaged and the hyperdrive inactive because of the blast, General Landry orders that they come about and use the new, untested weapons. This succeeds in penetrating the shields of the Ori mother ship and destroying it.
After entering hyperspace, Colonel Carter discovers some strange readings from the new hyperdrive system, and suggests that they stop using it. Immediately after exiting hyperspace, two more battlecruisers emerge. After quickly re-entering hyperspace, Carter realizes that they are tracking the propulsion system the Asgard installed. With no alternative, General Landry orders them to head for the nearest planet with an active Stargate and off-load the Odyssey's crew. |
” |
How do we know that it's "two more" battlecruisers? Watching the episode I didn't notice any indication of the "others turning on the Asgard" or the "Asgard destroy... the Ori ships". My assumption was that there had been 3 ships arriving at the Asgard planet, the Odessey destroyed one of them, and the other two followed them in Hyperspace. Did I mis something? -- Maelwys 11:00, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Ok, we did not clearly see onscreen the second mothership blowing to smithereens, so maybe you should stop counting two kills.-- Kamikaze 20:48, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Comment I have removed the note about the Ori count. It's not particularly important, but (more to the point) it makes the page unstable as people argue about the exact number. This information is obviously unverifiable, since the editors can't agree on what was represented on-screen. If someone wants to restore it, fine, but this seems like the best solution. -- Ckatz chat spy 18:22, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
hey when the ori found sg1 at orilla, it appears that all three were destroyed. 1 by the Oddesey and the other two appear to go towards the planet. Could we then assume that they were destroyed. L.to.the.P 21:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Does anybody know the piece carter plays on her Cello? I tried looking it up but found nothing. 219.90.185.158 12:14, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
I deleted the {{fact}} from the song trivia note. The only other times that non-Joel Goldsmith/David Arnold music was used on Stargate SG-1 was in " Fragile Balance" (Lily Frost - Who Am I) and a piece of classical music in " Shades Of Grey" (with Maybourne coming to O'Neill in his garden, listening to the radio). So the claim that "This episode marks the first time in the program's history that a montage used a song rather than original music" is quite correct. – sgeureka t• c 15:22, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
What was the name of the song they used? I have heard it before on soundtracks but being born in the early 80s it was made a little before my time for most people my age to know the name of it. Can anyone help me out?

If Daniel and Vala were together for fifty years why did they never attempt to have children? Did anyone else gather that maybe Vala tried but couldn't or maybe miscarried and thus the sole scene of Vala crying in Daniel's arms during the CCR montage. I'm just saying, it was the first thing that came to my mind. Anyone else? -- Evmore 23:45, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
The episode just aired on Comet TV as one of the last re-runs they have for Stargate SG-1. The way Vala's crying in that scene seems to be more than a reaction to finding out she couldn't have any more kids. To me, that's the kind of heartbreak that comes from a miscarriage. Regardless of viability of being able to start new families with so few people, those few seconds in the episode show Vala's and Daniel's relationship continuing to grow. — RRabbit42 ( talk) 15:27, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

Article states natural evolution is a requirement, however Rodney McKay and Khalek reached a state capable of ascension via technological means. Whether this constitutes a plot hole or just a poorly phrased section of the article I can't tell. Eban 18:25, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
Or maybe they did ascend. Since selfless sacrifice is one way of ascending. Only it wouldn't of been selfless if they knew they could. So in actuality, you only learn that the asgard and Daniel think they can't. Daniel's knowledge has been filtered/altered by the ascended ancients. Also Oma could of helped them, being she was the type to do stuff like that. And the ascended aren't linear in time. She did it before she jumped anubis, non-linear higher being, time means nothing, look at "Q" from startrek sort of way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.241.241.32 ( talk) 13:21, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
"This marks the last time on the series that Daniel Jackson will be brought back from the dead." - As this is the last episode of the series (discounting the two movies)... is this really required in the notes? - JohnDoe244 09:13, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
The Odyssey has shields that can widthstand the Ori weapon hits for a set amount of time. The shields then regenerate, it is shown as they drop out of hyperspace for the 2nd time and the shields have gone from 28% to 52%.
Now if the ship is in a bubble, that would mean the shields would recharge within this time, and the blast would not damage the ship when it hits, correct? ~ SleweD 10:54, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Except they're diverting pretty much all their power to the time-dilation field. It depleted their ZPM in fifty years, and it took the weight of Lantea's ocean three thousand years to take down the power of one ZPM when Atlantis was submerged. It's pretty safe to assume that they can't spare ayny energy to pp into their shields (At least, not enough to make any difference) JBK405 03:28, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
When I first watched the episode I was disappointed that we had to get rid of the Asgard technology but now I am wondering did we end up losing the technology or did they just turn of the Asgard core and still keep the technology? Or is it simply an unanswered question that the episode has left us with. If it is an unanswered question I think it is one worth noting in the article somewhere. HotOne121 17:41, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
They kept it but they just switched back to their old systems that were not part of the upgrades, they still have them though.
Vala M 16:59, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I think this is something worth noting in the article then as it is not 100% apparent to the casual fan. HotOne121 17:48, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I believe the real question to this episode is whether (or how much of) the Asgard Knowledge Base survived.

"On its first airing on the Sci Fi Channel on March 13, 2007, "Unending" attracted approximately 2.2 million viewers on its American broadcast, the best performance for SG-1 since the September 22, 2006 mid-season finale." It didn't air on Skiffy in March, it aired on Sky One. This should be kept in, just fixed Also should we put something about it coming 3rd in Sky One's ratings that week? http://www.barb.co.uk/viewingsummary/weekreports.cfm?RequestTimeout=500&report=weeklytop30 there's the link, you need to go to w/e 18/03/07 Jedi Master Bra'tac ( talk) 20:39, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
There is a much easier solution than reversing time in a localized field. They could of just cut a hole in the ship in the area where the ori beam was going to hit. Then they could of just flown away. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.213.141.241 ( talk) 05:12, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
i recently re watched this episode and it occurred to me that this new fancy Tau'r battlecruiser was being flown in battle by only SIX people (SG-1 plus Landry) only THREE of which are actually using controls: Mitchell piloting, Daniel on sensors and Carter in engineering, whilst Vala helps Carter, Landry gives orders and Teal'c puts out small fires.
Lets run the mathematics shall we? a big badass ship, normally crewed by 100+ people (Prometheus had at least 80), being run, EFFECTIVLY, by 6 people? WEIRD
Come to think of it, it has happenned before. in Ripple Effect, the alternate SG-1 fully expect to run Prometheus with just 4 people, same with Unnatural Selection and Prometheus episodes from season 6. very odd indeed

This is supposed to be the last episode of the TV programme, but the Infobox states a direct-to-DVD movie as the following episode. Should this stay?

So in actuality, you only learn that the asgard and Daniel think they can't. Daniel's knowledge has been filtered/altered by the ascended ancients. Also Oma could of helped them, being she was the type to do stuff like that. And the ascended aren't linear in time. She did it before she jumped anubis, non-linear higher being, time means nothing, look at "Q" from startrek sort of way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.241.241.32 ( talk) 13:21, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
"This marks the last time on the series that Daniel Jackson will be brought back from the dead." - As this is the last episode of the series (discounting the two movies)... is this really required in the notes? - JohnDoe244 09:13, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
The Odyssey has shields that can widthstand the Ori weapon hits for a set amount of time. The shields then regenerate, it is shown as they drop out of hyperspace for the 2nd time and the shields have gone from 28% to 52%.
Now if the ship is in a bubble, that would mean the shields would recharge within this time, and the blast would not damage the ship when it hits, correct? ~ SleweD 10:54, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Except they're diverting pretty much all their power to the time-dilation field. It depleted their ZPM in fifty years, and it took the weight of Lantea's ocean three thousand years to take down the power of one ZPM when Atlantis was submerged. It's pretty safe to assume that they can't spare ayny energy to pp into their shields (At least, not enough to make any difference) JBK405 03:28, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
When I first watched the episode I was disappointed that we had to get rid of the Asgard technology but now I am wondering did we end up losing the technology or did they just turn of the Asgard core and still keep the technology? Or is it simply an unanswered question that the episode has left us with. If it is an unanswered question I think it is one worth noting in the article somewhere. HotOne121 17:41, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
They kept it but they just switched back to their old systems that were not part of the upgrades, they still have them though.

I think this is something worth noting in the article then as it is not 100% apparent to the casual fan. HotOne121 17:48, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I believe the real question to this episode is whether (or how much of) the Asgard Knowledge Base survived.

All of it. Why would any of it have been lost?

Could the Asgard be downloaded into new bodies if a new hoast was found, Because you saw thor appear like a hologram like o'neal did in "New Order"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.43.28.20 ( talk) 19:46, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
The holgram that appears is only the asgard core communicating to the user rather than being an actual conciousness of an asgard as they all died in their bodies on Orilla. Hdrit ( talk) 22:49, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
"On its first airing on the Sci Fi Channel on March 13, 2007, "Unending" attracted approximately 2.2 million viewers on its American broadcast, the best performance for SG-1 since the September 22, 2006 mid-season finale." It didn't air on Skiffy in March, it aired on Sky One. This should be kept in, just fixed Also should we put something about it coming 3rd in Sky One's ratings that week? http://www.barb.co.uk/viewingsummary/weekreports.cfm?RequestTimeout=500&report=weeklytop30 there's the link, you need to go to w/e 18/03/07 Jedi Master Bra'tac ( talk) 20:39, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
There is a much easier solution than reversing time in a localized field. They could of just cut a hole in the ship in the area where the ori beam was going to hit. Then they could of just flown away. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.213.141.241 ( talk) 05:12, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
i recently re watched this episode and it occurred to me that this new fancy Tau'r battlecruiser was being flown in battle by only SIX people (SG-1 plus Landry) only THREE of which are actually using controls: Mitchell piloting, Daniel on sensors and Carter in engineering, whilst Vala helps Carter, Landry gives orders and Teal'c puts out small fires.
Lets run the mathematics shall we? a big badass ship, normally crewed by 100+ people (Prometheus had at least 80), being run, EFFECTIVLY, by 6 people? WEIRD
Come to think of it, it has happenned before. in Ripple Effect, the alternate SG-1 fully expect to run Prometheus with just 4 people, same with Unnatural Selection and Prometheus episodes from season 6. very odd indeed

Okay, the article's looking awesome right now, and there are just a few little things that need fixing to achieve GA status:
You've got a week to make any necessary changes to the article - good luck :) — 97198 talk 07:59, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
Article looks pretty good, my only real issue that has yet to be brought up is the removal of the second paragraph in the lead section. I do not feel that it is necessary or really adds much to the article.-- 88wolfmaster ( talk) 08:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
This is supposed to be the last episode of the TV programme, but the Infobox states a direct-to-DVD movie as the following episode. Should this stay? I think the Episode Chronology in the Infobox should end after this episode, and it could be mentioned somewhere else in the article that this episode was followed up by a movie.
