Daniel loves the fiery girls just at first she was too chaotic for him but he liked her from the start he just played along to tame her the best he could
Funny thing is for Vala, it really was love at first sight with Daniel. She changed and became the person she was by the end of the series largely due to him, and the whole time, he thought she was just playing games with him. In the continuing timeline, he never did realize she was serious, it was only in "Unending" that she let her guard down and showed him she was serious and they ended up together--and that got erased and only Teal'c remembered. And he never told them.
Well, he never realised she was serious on-screen - but it seems logical to assume that what happened in “Unending” would probably have happened in the new timeline, eventually.
I am like her now. Tough as nails & spunky sassy. I love her accent ! It was very different. Gala Valdoran. I love how she winked at the other cute guy. 😥 Sad 😢 I wish they had known or told them. Not fair.
@@CommisarHood I feel like she would let him say the obvious, "a vast amount of personal experience with your kleptomaniac tendencies" before returning with a witty but self-aware and flimsy repartee. She usually saved the actual argumentative behavior for the middle of an adventure where she disagreed on what do to next. At the end when she'd stolen something it was Daniel who would cut her off all and refuse to deal with her bullshit.
I love how after all the stuff Daniel went through before never quite got under his skin like she does. The expressions he gives around her are Priceless!
I always loved the chemistry between Claudia Black and Ben Browder. Farscape just had me so entranced with these two and to see them on Stargate just awesome. Claudia is just amazing :)
I think the gov't cheated her. She literally lead them to a room full of treasure and priceless artifacts, but she is sent home with nothing for her effort. At least everyone working for Stargate Command receives a paycheck. Love ya Val!
I always liked Vala Mal Doran. Some here say she ruined SG-1, but I don’t think so-I’d say what sunk she show was the repetition. The show’s original villains were a race of aliens that posed as the gods of various cultures. These villains were more or less defeated and replaced by another bunch of villains that proclaimed themselves gods. I really think that we should have seen a post-Goa’uld period where we got to see the rise of new post-Goa’uld powers of different varieties...
@@aznthy stop calling people you don't know stupid things like "incel". Also SGU wasn't necessarily bad, it just took Stargate in a slightly different direction. Especially the first half of season 1 focused mostly on the characters and the drama between them. It wasn't actually bad, in fact it was needed to establish these characters what were completely unknown to us at that point, but the Stargate audience wasn't having it. The show got better though and I actually enjoyed the second season quite a bit, but by then it was already too late and the entire franchise had gotten the axe.
SG-1 was still a great show, and Vala spiced thing up by adding a fifth member who had that sense of humor and child like curiosity that Oneill had, just a bit more bubbly.
It is interesting to see how wounded Vala is whenever Daniel tells her what he actually thinks of her. She is genuinelly trying to get her to like him, but she only knows how to tease people sexually, and Daniel isn't like that. It is like a Highschool RomCom.
I have this hypothesis that at one point the Stargate producers ran a job ad along the lines of 'Attention actor -- has your long-running sci-fi series just wound up? Well have we got a franchise for you!'
Hilarious that after everything Daniel has been through with various women over the years. Vala is the only one that drives him mad with insanity and pleasure 🤣 😂
it's that toothy smile! Truth be told, given her long dark hair and the prominent 'schnozz' I thought she was a fine representative of the Greek community ALL Australians like to tell me about; It turns out not, but it seems in some Aussie soap operas she did play a Greek Character
Claudia has great comedic talent, well timed. Shes also very fit and suitable for actions. Re-watch her first scene in Farscape when beat up Crichton, Aeryn Sun was a real badass action character, and my youngest is partially named after her.
Lexa is so gorgeous as Dr. Lam, wished they gave her more screen time. They were trying to get her on the show for years since Shanks guest starred on her show Andromeda. They were really lucky to get her before she got another show to work on.
@@Hammerhead137 They had no choice. MGM was facing financial issues back then. More seasons, aswell as an O'Neill movie and an Atlantis movie was planned. The only reason Atlantis wasn't continued was because the budget wasn't enough for two concurrent shows anymore, so it was sacrificed for SGU. Then later Universe was also cancelled because of money problems (among other things). Despite all the cuts MGM could never recover, hence the acquisition by Amazon recently.
I always wondered if the underground scene where Daniel tells her the monster would be afraid of her was a "nod" to "Pitch Black" which Claudia Black was featured in.
Aeryn Sun is still Claudia's best role but Vala is still amazing. The on screen chemistry with Michael Shanks is as good as what she had with Ben Browder in Farscape, just in a different way.
What makes Claudia so great and iconic is that Aeryn and Vala are such completely different characters despite being played by the same person with very little difference in their appearance. Vala has some blonde streaks in her hair, otherwise there's really no attempt to make her look different to Aeryn, but the performances are so distinct that they never feel in any way like being similar. It's hard to say which character is the better of the two, because they are so vastly different. They're among my favorite characters in scifi.
I love that when they finally referenced FarScape in Stargate's episode 200, they had Daniel in the role of Crichton and Mitchell as Stark, because of course it's Vala making the reference so she puts Daniel as the lead/love interest for herself.
Her and Ben were such good additions. I though the show would loose some steam when RDA took a lesser role, but I feel like they helped keep the energy and fun going.
Whoever thought to pair up Daniel with an absolute chaos-goblin like Vala was a genius.
“Chaos goblin” 😂
@@clarascats1365 I love it. So apt
@@hankasator9184 ??? I was like ten…
This is honestly an amazing pairing. It’s a trope of “sighing and annoyed and calm” vs “chaos, energy spontaneous”
Daniel loves the fiery girls just at first she was too chaotic for him but he liked her from the start he just played along to tame her the best he could
"I'm sure we haven't met." Claudia Black to Ben Browder...extremely meta.
I find it more meta that their character's personalities are reversed; Aeryn to Vala, Crichton to Cameron :)
Farscape is a show that exists... I actually binged it a long long time ago but smhw it never grew on me.

I can totally imagine Vala ending an adventure with “Maybe the real treasure was the friends we made along the way?”
“...what’d you take?”

😂😂😂😂😂 incredibly accurate. I can picture it right before the credits roll
From the very first episode where she hijacked the ship, you could see the chemistry they had. The best sub-plot of the series.
They had chemistry, but sometimes it was trinitrotoluene
She was a creepy sexual assaulter in that episode, though. I guess Lucius Lavin had great chemistry with all the ladies in Atlantis. 🙄
The part where she freaks him out by wearing the Kull warrior armour always makes me laugh 😂
But is it REALLY Kull warrior armor...or is it her old Peacekeeper Getup from the first ep. of Farscape?
or are they parodying her Peacekeeper first appearance?
It reminds me a bit of when Solo asks a helmeted someone who they were and ta-dah, it's Leia. :) The idea could be from there.
"**cough** ...WHut?"
I've been in love with this woman ever since I saw farscape.
Yup 👍
Can’t deny
Cassandra in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. I thought they were setting up a Mulder/Scully platonic romance.
You and every guy with a heartbeat!
me too! farscape is so, so underrated! what an awesome show it was!
I love that huge grin of hers. "Let's make babies."
Same
At which point Daniel looks like he's thinking 'It was better when I was ascended. Maybe I should go back.' :-)
Daniel: “Please lock me in a sarcophagus, like, forever”
3:57
Daniel: "I cant kill her and have to be close to her, please ascend me now or kill me"
Dr. Lam: “Your condition suddenly improved when she came back.”
Vala: “Miss me?”
Daniel: (mentally) uggggggggghhhhhh
Michael Shanks: "not in front of my wife"
I think the addition of vala was the best character addition ever and her character growth is awesome to watch

Definitely wouldve been good to explore the lucien alliance more as a threat
Lol, SG-1 was never "ruined" only idiots who says that are incel basement dwellers who don't understand the show or women.

What?
The horrors that Daniel was imagining lol. That is not an easy death to be the mate of a kill lol
When my wife and I was watching that first scene we were both howling in laughter.
Such a fun character. I wish we had got to see her with oneil. That would have been a hilarious combo
I don’t think the universe could cope with that much sass.

Val and Baal are two of my favorite in this show.
Both actors did great work , and both characters where a delight to watch.
The hardest part of acting with Claudia Black has to be resisting the urge to hug her, especially when she is playing a character like Vala! Lol
I freaking love this chick

Always love her and anything she has been in.
She is the best and my favourite character. I love Claudia Black she makes her characters so much fun!
She stressed Daniel's patience so damn hard...
That Kull Armor just thumps like the powerloader from Aliens every time it takes a step.
The casting was perfect for this show!!!!

these two together, better than a hallmark love story.
Perfect role for Claudia.
She does look like she is enjoying the role, doesn't she? Some actors get roles so juicy and enjoyable, it almost doesn't seem like work at all.
She has a voice like no other💞

The way that Daniel just walks out when Vala tells him that she's pregnant will always be funny. 😂
Claudia is So Freakin Awesome!
got to love that shanks get to have scenes with so many great actresses including his wife

Agreed. I didn't understand why they killed her off so soon.

The River Song of Stargate SG1.
Love her or hate her, she's gotta have some of the best character growth in 2 seasons we have ever seen. Time dilation helps, I guess.
“Come on, Daniel. Don’t make it harder that it has to be.”
Correct it please. :(
Claudia's comedic element saved Seasons 9 and 10.
Every scene is the best scene for vala!
Claudia black reads phone book whilst out of focus and wearing a mumu. Worth watching all 3 hours.
I was so happy they made Bala a permanent character, loved her energy, then watching her change for the better
I love that every of those scenes include Daniel. This pairing is an aquired taste but dam does it taste good once u aquired it
great actress and must be fun to work with..:) she was a GREAT addition to SG-1 (and yes...she's hot..:))
