Time is definitely among my favourite SGU episodes! I really like that extra kino scene as well, that added bit of explanation of what happened after is a nice addition.
honestly? that little time-loop horror episode to ME was Stargate's single best time travel story. I'll love the one where Jack gets to play golf & goof off till i die. but this episode was a masterpiece!
4:42 Riley was such a great character. He was extremely smart and articulate and was able to explain things in a way that was easy to understand. It's a shame the way the got rid of him.
As a life long SciFi fan, I honestly think this is one of the ALL TIME ( pun intended) time travel stories I've ever seen. It took me 3 views to wrap my head around it. One of the best Gate episodes period! 🇨🇦🖖🍻
I saw this back when Stargate had a TH-cam Stargate rewatch show. I miss that show and the associated chat. Talking to other fans, writers, stars etc. of Stargate was a lot of fun.
I've seen it before. But honestly the ending of Time is perfect the way it is. It allows the viewer to think at the end. It's also my fav episode of SGU.
Stargate universe should have been much more than what it was and although it turned into a drama, it was more real than any other Stargate and if it had more time to flesh itself out rather than stick to some minor personal inquiries, it would have gone much further
I always felt that the ending made it fairly obvious how things played out. I suppose it was a bit strange that no character ever mentions the events in any future episode, but you can say that about many episodes. It is one of the few episodes that can be considered "stand-alone", although I wouldn't say there is no character development, because we get a small insight into Greer's intolerance for his own perceived failure.
It kind of makes sense that it's never mentioned again. Witnessing something like that happening to you, even though it was an alternate you, you really wouldn't want to think about it again let alone bringing it up in conversation.
Loved this take. What gets me is that the Ancients would've observed the effects of a solar flare on gate travel, to understand time. There was an episode on Atlantis where they go back in time. Wish this was explored a little more. Wish there was more SGU.
A Kino episode that wasn't necessary. Anyone who'd watched SG-1 and the TV episode could easily understand the episode. If not anyone who has seen virtually any time loop story in sci-fi.
@@TheKonkaman That makes sense ... for back then, but that's not the case now. As you brought up VPN, we have a plethora of VPNs now to pick from to get around locked regions. Are there any reasons with today's tech and platforms on why you would want to avoid webisodes? (Just curious)
Vpns have always been around and the companies selling the VPN program is not an actual VPN and can be worked around real vpns are usually offered by your isp. Dns is a decent way work around region lock but has limits
I remember Red vs Blue doing simillar things in certain seasons they added on the story with sponsor only videos. I wasnt on internet much in 2012 era so i missed the kino stuff but saw them some years after. I like the idea of extra content.
Thanks for this, never knew about the shorts as I'm not from America. Nice to see what actually happened and not be left with some ambiguous never to be resolved plot, though you could probably figure out what they did, vaguely.
I figured that's what was going to happen. I never thought that there needed to be anything more. In my opinion, the end was perfect. A fantastic episode! That being said, I am a veteran sci-fi viewer. So maybe the casual audience member might expect more.
So, did I understand you correctly that there was some edition or version of physical media sold of SGU that included some of the Kino webisodes but NOT this one (and some others)? Really?!?! Because THIS webisode is arguably the MOST important because of how important it is to explaining/resolving "Time"! I didn't know that any of the webisodes were ever included on any release of the physical media.
Time remains one of the best episode of the entire Franchise. Heck, one of the best episode of the entire sci-fi genre. A true masterpiece that Robert C. Cooper delivered to us.
Never saw this before. That said... it's ok. In retrospect, I do not think at all that it was necessary. Personally, I feel the episode ended perfectly, as it did.
Must Have Been Certain Releases? The R4\RB DVD & Blu-Ray In Australia Of Season 1 Has Always Included This Webisode As Well As The Recent Complete Series Box Of SGU.
Honestly, how were the Web-episodes were not added to at a minimum the Blu-ray sets or as Extra footage for the DVD set absolutely sucks! I was never able to watch it when it was aired... I only watched it once it was on DVD. But, maybe someday... They will just include the extra scenes on a Anniversary SGU set?! 🤔
@@cmbaz1140 that was intentional. Non Stargate sfi fans wanted the shows to be edgier and darker. So they copied the new BSG style, which turned off traditional Stargate fans and the new fans that wanted dark and edgy never watched
great episode a learning experience a test for that group to elanr from a mistake and find a proper fix to the situation, a literal learning curve, for something yet to come a way home maybe in one timeline they used the blue star as the extreme power source and a flare from that same star to go back to earth but what time will they arrive in the past or the future are their descendants the real abydosians a causality loop, why the symbols hidden in the city were so perfectly made, or to a world thousands of years later with tech that make the nox the ancients look like cavemen in comparison.
If only they made more episodes like "Time" in the early season, instead of these bullshit love stories on earth. I'm pretty sure SG:U wouldn't have failed. But I guess it was more important for the producers to show how Telford had sex with Young's wife.
I recently picked up a copy of this series and getting set to rewatch it. It was the last set to finish my SG collection. This episode, well let's say you brought the memory back. In answer to your question, no I don't think we needed the webisode. It was good to leave us with a little mystery.
Time is just one of the best episode of Stargate, all 3 shows considered, and that's it. It's the episode that got me to be an inconditional fan of this stargate despite the controversial moments on earth and that really got me to be pissed off by the online campaign started by people i can't describe how low i see their IQ was without risking being banned on most social media. If you weren't convinced of the potential of SGU after this episode and proceeded to bash the show, you simply can't call yourself a stargate fan.
this just shows why SGU was such a bomb, it didn't start getting good until the last 2 or 3 seasons, i didn't get back in to it until the last few episodes of the last season.
That was an excellent episode and it showed what SGU could have been. They just lingered on the drone thread FAR too long and just couldn't seem to carry the series forward once they got stuck on it. The drones should have been no more than half a season and then done... But no. I miss Stargate and SGU. It's too bad we will never get it back the way it once was. Like everything else, if it DOES come back... I expect it will end up as a woke pile of crap that just isn't even worthy of even being aired, but hey... I might be wrong. I hope I am... but I'd rather have the Stargate we once knew and loved over a shiny new woke pile of crap that just ruins the memory of a once stellar series.
This show marked the beginning of the epidemic of BAD sci-fi on television. Everything since has been awful. As if they would only hire screenwriters that did "Gilligan's Island" stories in the 1960s.
i like that you uploaded the clip, but for god sake stop saying this clip this clip for like 4 minutes before showing it. i found it a bit obnoxious. if i wasnt a big fan of stargate i would have disliked the whole vid.
Look this was a bad show and this episode was so bad I stop watching the show for a long time iv re watch all the sessions and can say is still bad and this clip is so boring and bad it just reminded me how I can't stand SGU
Time is definitely among my favourite SGU episodes! I really like that extra kino scene as well, that added bit of explanation of what happened after is a nice addition.
One of my all-time favourite Stargate episodes.
wouldnt surprise me if that episode would echo back if we got a s3. loved how intesne that ep was.
3:19 is when he FINALLY plays the clip after saying this clip this clip thiiiiissss clip over and over again. Thank me later.
honestly? that little time-loop horror episode to ME was Stargate's single best time travel story.
I'll love the one where Jack gets to play golf & goof off till i die.
but this episode was a masterpiece!
yes, and I'd never watch it again - too depressing.
Great show. Deserves more respect and appreciation than it gets. I think about this series more than the others… despite like all of them quite a bit.
One of my favourite SG eps ever ... was shocking, confusing, and then amazing. Loved it
Sublime episode. I love it when Eli, says. "Have you never seen Alien?". 😂
4:42 Riley was such a great character. He was extremely smart and articulate and was able to explain things in a way that was easy to understand. It's a shame the way the got rid of him.
His fake keyboard typing was an automatic fail for me.

This guy gets it ☝️
Thanks for the this video! I never knew that that video prologue existed!
What an episode!
Such a great show. I can't believe ratings dropped to get it cancelled
Thank you for the extra information and update
Stargate universe should have been much more than what it was and although it turned into a drama, it was more real than any other Stargate and if it had more time to flesh itself out rather than stick to some minor personal inquiries, it would have gone much further
*Phenominal episode,* the writers always came up with somethin interestin in each SG show without makin the time travel stuff repetitive.
🤙🏽⚡️🤟🏽⚡️👌🏽

Im so happy the days of webisodes are long gone
Why is that? Im missing something sorry.
@ because back in the day alot of it was region locked and it was back before vpns, lots of content was missed because of it

@@chuckm260 most media is on demand now, so episodes aren’t 30m / 1h, they can be as long or short as needed to tell the story
Thanks for this , yes I always felt the episode left you hanging and you had to try and piece it together yourself.
"Well, thinks can't get any worse right?"
"I'm afraid that's a failure of your imagination."

I remember watching every one of the kino episodes
thanks, did not know web shorts existed. I do not even remember the episode to be fair. well done, not to long.
WIBBLE WOBBLE TIMEY WIME STUFF ! Great Fun to Watch so Thank You ;
The Kino webisodes are so good - love the shower prank haha
I just finished the episode "trial and error" then I saw this video dropped. Good timing.
I figured that's what was going to happen. I never thought that there needed to be anything more. In my opinion, the end was perfect. A fantastic episode! That being said, I am a veteran sci-fi viewer. So maybe the casual audience member might expect more.
This was the best of SGU. Showed tremendous potential for the series which instead fell flat.
I have seen all the kinos long time ago :)
The kino blogs wore a nice extended cut idea for every episode
So, did I understand you correctly that there was some edition or version of physical media sold of SGU that included some of the Kino webisodes but NOT this one (and some others)?
Really?!?! Because THIS webisode is arguably the MOST important because of how important it is to explaining/resolving "Time"!
I didn't know that any of the webisodes were ever included on any release of the physical media.
One of my fav Stargate Episodes
i remember sgu. i was so into stargate i stayed up until 1-2-3am dont remember exactly anymore, just to watch it "live"
Time remains one of the best episode of the entire Franchise. Heck, one of the best episode of the entire sci-fi genre. A true masterpiece that Robert C. Cooper delivered to us.
it was a favorite of mine and i understood what happened the extra wasn't needed for me but i am a long time stargate fan so other may have needed it.
❤ this, this video was inside of 1 of the kinos.
This is awesome!
I watched that episode when it aired, I wasn't shocked.
People always forget the SGU kinos when listing what is SG cannon
Any Stargate written by Robert Copper is top notch
Thanks for sharing! 8:43 8:43 8:43
My heart aches to think about Stargate, when will the reboot it, I can't wait!
Never saw this before.
That said... it's ok. In retrospect, I do not think at all that it was necessary.
Personally, I feel the episode ended perfectly, as it did.
I thought that it would have been a good idea to go to through the gate wearing the Ancient space suits, as they look pretty tough.
Personal. I think their should be weather forecasts for solar flares during Gate travel !
Must Have Been Certain Releases? The R4\RB DVD & Blu-Ray In Australia Of Season 1 Has Always Included This Webisode As Well As The Recent Complete Series Box Of SGU.
I'm glad I saw it, but I don't think it was necessary. Most of it was exposition and didn't do much.
Interesting that SG1 universe switches between linear time vs multiverse time is completely inconsistent.
Meah....time travel again
I thought I hallucinated this. I'm so glad I'm still crazy, just not about this.
"...was watching them watch watch themselves." 6:48
Can you imagine if that was the last episode of the series?
Yeah years ago on TH-cam I watched all the SGU kino webisodes.
Reminds me of the Star Trek episode Cause and Effect.
I did get this scene on the DVD copy I got.
Honestly, how were the Web-episodes were not added to at a minimum the Blu-ray sets or as Extra footage for the DVD set absolutely sucks! I was never able to watch it when it was aired... I only watched it once it was on DVD. But, maybe someday... They will just include the extra scenes on a Anniversary SGU set?! 🤔
I was hooked on this show, and watched with Facebook fans
SGU had potential then turned into a soap opera all about whos sleeping with who. Was such a disappointment compared to the other two shows.
I find Destiny's mission to be one of, if not the most interesting, quest/story in Stargate, but you are absolutely 100% right, it felt very soapy!
I didnt like it for me it was no different than BSG they even had the shacky cam...
I think you have that backwards. It started out like a soap opera at first but towards the later episodes it started to show more potential.
@@cmudd9788 It was more like 'Lost' in that regard.
@@cmbaz1140 that was intentional. Non Stargate sfi fans wanted the shows to be edgier and darker.
So they copied the new BSG style, which turned off traditional Stargate fans and the new fans that wanted dark and edgy never watched
You’re looking for timestamp 3:19.
Be honest, how else watch the Lieutenant James recording first 😊
Huh, I was unaware of the kino shorts, especially this one. (honestly not a fan of online only related materials for a series or movie)
great episode a learning experience a test for that group to elanr from a mistake and find a proper fix to the situation, a literal learning curve, for something yet to come a way home maybe in one timeline they used the blue star as the extreme power source and a flare from that same star to go back to earth but what time will they arrive in the past or the future are their descendants the real abydosians a causality loop, why the symbols hidden in the city were so perfectly made, or to a world thousands of years later with tech that make the nox the ancients look like cavemen in comparison.
In 2024, are we all still supposed to believe that the stargate TV show is science fiction 🤷🏻♂️
I didn't care for this episode "Time." I tend to skip it when rewatching the series.
I can see why they left it out, it put me to sleep.
3:18
If only they made more episodes like "Time" in the early season, instead of these bullshit love stories on earth. I'm pretty sure SG:U wouldn't have failed. But I guess it was more important for the producers to show how Telford had sex with Young's wife.

Jeez... get to the point already. Why even has this video got 2 openings?! Just go to 3:19 people and skip the chit chat.

Reported for the sheer amount of off topic junk in the video. the fake "post-credit" scene starts at 3:18 .
Totaly unnecessary. Joining the dots takes away from the intrigue. It's just like folding this piece of paper
Better left out
Look this was a bad show and this episode was so bad I stop watching the show for a long time iv re watch all the sessions and can say is still bad and this clip is so boring and bad it just reminded me how I can't stand SGU
