Yeah, if you’ve the entire franchise and gotten to this point, you are already familiar with the Ancients, as they are HEAVILY referenced in SG-1 and Atlantis.
To be honest he made a couple mistakes. The Wraith weren’t defeted at all, just the super hive with ZPM, and something else in the SGU part I cannot remember what exactly but he was saying it when the Destiny crew was leaving the ship in a shuttle in the episode Light in season 1
Oh and no, the discovery made by the Ancients aboard Destiny is not that life existed before the Big Bang, it’s that the universe is an artificial construct. Hence the title of the show.
@@honzasenbauer612 I think by the end of season 5 the wraith are on their last legs. I think the war with the replicators crippled the number of hives out there. I've heard season 6 would explore a new enemy.
sure it mentions some things like "earth team defeats Alien X" but really, the journey of how they get there, is an amazing part of it. Eg, you really see the humans making using of the alien tech that they learn about, which in turn, makes the later episodes very interesting as far as how it refers back to stuff they found before, as well as characters that showed up in 1 or 2 episodes but never seen again. It really adds a good kind of continuity that a lot of shows forget about.
To be fair, a lot of people who watch a franchise do not split it up, they tend to watch one series all the way through before starting the next one. Since there is overlap of the different series' to maintain continuity attention needs to be divided for a bit.
@@meltedplasticarmyguy that is exactly what I did when I discovered Stargate earlier this year. The overlap was a bit confusing at times, and I am excited about a rewatch in the „proper“ order. I will appreciate the crossover episodes a lot more I think.

@mikewatkinson1996 - depends. How do you compare it to other shows, new or old ones. There were few that some would say were better, some worse, and most of that is... kind of nostalgia. Personally I've enjoyed SG-1, but lets not forget about some old ones too (and new ones): - Stargate Atlantis, Babylon 5, Farscape, Firefly, Deep Space 9, Battlestar Galactica (old and new), Defiance, Timeless, Warehouse 13, X-Files, Fringe, Eureka, Continuum, Librarians, The Good Place, 12 Monkeys, Quantum Leap, Sliders, Pretender, Sanctuary, Legends of Tomorrow, Legends of the Seeker, Primeval, Dark Matter, Killjoys, Resident Alien, Strange New Worlds, The Expanse, and few more old ones such as Space 1999, Jason of the Star Command, Early Edition, Invaders, or The Twilight Zone (the one from 1985 but also 2002-2003)... New ones are definitely different, but quite a few from 1990s were also good.
The ancients were not discovered in sgu, they're first introduced in the sg1 season 1 episode "torment of Tantalus", and revealed as the builders of the stargates in the season 2 episode "the fifth race", with following episodes revealing that they're the most advanced race ever to inhibit at least 2 galaxies(Milky way and Pegasus).
Well, that's only true up until a point as well. Can't remember timeline-wise when it happens, but they end up on that drug to supress the need for a symbiote. Always found that to be pretty cool.

Where are they going to go ? Stargate sg1 = Milky way galaxy Stargate Atlantis = Pegasus Galaxy (New) Stargate Universe = Ancientspace ship. Yes i want them to make a new stargate.
@@modarsesekil2408 if the fandom can write 1000 pages long sequels to atlantis and sg-1, then surely well paid script writers can revive the franchise by providing a new dynamic?
I wouldn't mind a new show where the stargate program is about go public and we follow a new team with members from different countries and backgrounds. It would give a good mix of sg-1 and Atlantis vibes
@@modarsesekil2408 that's a good question, although they aren't done with the wraith they only stopped them from feasting on earth they are still all over Pegasus. Other than that the Lucian alliance is still around, definitely not as threating as the other big bads, there also could be an invasion of a race of aliens from another galaxy. Idk just spit balling here I always enjoyed the episodes that didn't have to do with the main bad guys that I dont really need one I loved the themes of exploration and discovery in the series never knowing what was going to be on the next planet (except for a lot of green that looks suspiciously like the area around Vancouver.)
Nice summary there. But there are two errors. Ark of true takes place before SGA 3x20 First strike. And Continuum takes place after SGA 5x01 Search and Rescue. (it is explicitly mentioned in the end of that episode by Carter) ;) Other than that, it is great ;)
I think SG1 and SGA are better than SGU, but I think both SGA and SGU figured out where to go right as they got cancelled. I hope Amazon brings it back and in the same cannon.
For those with the imagination, would suggest watching the Battlestar Galactica franchise and see if anyone else comes to the same conclusion of how BSG and Stargate Franchise are of the same universe ;) For instance with how the BSG ends and the level of Technology they were at at that time they very well could be "The Ancients" in the SG franchise. Tons of other ways of linking them as well, you'll even see many familiar faces that appear in both franchises. Also take note to what is said at the end of BSG "This has all happened before, it will all happen again", then in Atlantis when Wier goes back in time the "Ancient" that helps her mentions that she (current humanity) is the 2nd evolution of them (the Ancients) which is another tie of the 2 together.
I've never seen BSG except for a few episodes that come on Comet TV so my knowledge of the franchise comes from the intros. I am a huge fan of Stargate and your idea makes me want to watch BSG. BSG is headed to Earth, "the birthplace of humanity" but the Ancients evolved in an entirely different galaxy and were forced to the Milky Way by the Ori were they seeded planets with humanity 2.0 and then did the same thing again when they fled from a plague to the Pegasus galaxy. So that means that the humans of BSG can't be the Ancients but they could be either descendants or creation of the Tau'ri (the humans that were created on earth by the Ancients). Lastly, what you said about the technology level, where Stargate ended, the Tau'ri had nearly all of the knowledge of both the Ancients and Asgard plus several other species that they could also learn from.
I never watched Stargate Origin. In my opinion nothing can beat Stargate SG1 . 20 years ago I was a big fan. Now there is talk about a reunion and I am ready for it !
@Dark Sith Lord the show is a direct sequel to the film. Film introduces Jackson and O'neill, Catheryn Langford, death of Ra and Stargate programm itself. Sure, they give exposition to all of this but seeing it for youself is way better.
@Dark Sith Lord they have changed some character personalities and the nature of goauld thats called retcon. Not the only time this happens - remember zat.s third shot? But the events of the movie happened in the continuity of series that is a fact. If a newbie skips movie, as you suggest, he will be confused and will have to guess wtf is going on on the screen. Why do they send napkins through stargate? Who the hell is Skaara and Sha're and Kasuf and why are they important to Daniel and Jack? And so on.
@Dark Sith Lord who the frack cares, they can still enjoy the first movie as it does introduce things. And there was a lot of time in universe between the first movie and SG-1, people change. Get over it.
As someone who watched SG1 before watching the film, I can definitely say that the film is essential background info that’d cause confusion if it was skipped. Also, “SG1 is an adaptation, not a sequel”?? Do you not know what adaptations are? If SG1 was an adaptation, it would’ve retold the events of the film in a different way. Instead, it’s set a year after the events of the film, and holds the basic plot points of the film as preexisting history. That is a _Sequel_ , not an _Adaptation._ 🤦♂️
@Dark Sith Lord I have done my research. You clearly need a dictionary. When a sequel/spinoff/adaptation allows new viewers to understand the basic story/premise without needing to watch the (entire) original media, that doesn't _Automatically_ mean that the new media is an "adaptation" of its predecessor; that's just good accessibility. - By that logic, Star Wars Ep1 is an "adaptation" of Ep4, because of the accessibility to new viewers to the SW universe (when it's clearly a prequel along the same continuity). Now, saying that the O'Neill & Jackson _Characters_ are adaptations _of their film counterparts_ , that would make sense, as they're clearly not carbon copies, and the characters were *_Adjusted_* to fit the new medium & story structure. -However, this doesn't _Automatically_ mean that _The Entire Show_ is an adaptation of the original film, as it's clearly telling a _Subsequent, Followup_ story to the film (ie a _Sequel_ ) and not telling the _Same_ story in a different format (which is what most adaptations are).
i kinda wish the new show *maybe) will take place after atlantis. dont really need a big bad group right off the bat. sgu was a good idea but it was to much like a day time drama. for a crew that was limited some one or more died each episode and two people had feelings in each. the explore aspect felt like it was the last thing they focused on. if they go with that for the next show (once again they say its a thing but its when not if) they need to get back to sg-1 type. i dont want a reboot cause im sure we will get copy cat shows and no ill watch the orginal.
I really think that is best for you to start with the miniseries Stargate: Origin which is canon , taking place in 1939, several decades before the events of the 1994 Stargate film. It follows a young Catherine Langford a minor character from the 1994 film and Stargate SG-1.
It’s a bs series that doesn’t follow the lore as told through SG-1. Besides ignoring this series and SGU, all anyone need is the first movie, SG-1 and SG:A plus the two movies.
@@stargate6245 Eli would discover an ancient outpost or a crashed ancients ship that had what he needed to survive including stasis machines. He’d just leave a message for the rest of the crew.
Thanks for this. I’ve already finish the series , following you recommendations. I truly enjoyed it much better than the first time I saw it. Thanks for the good work.
This presentation really puts things into perspective for me. Was turned around a few times while watching the whole series franchise. I've written them down as described and will keep them as a reference point next time I begin to watch them all. Thank you ! ! !
Its clear the people who wrote the script for this video have not watched the series closely enough and got lots of the details wrong. But they did get the order to watch them in correct which is good. Highly Recommend Stargate, it's the best Sci Fi iv'e ever watched.
Fantastic franchise 👍 seriously is aust watch for any sci-fi fans out there! I can't wait for the heavily implied new series that's being worked on 😁😁😁
With Stargate it´s either you love it or have never heard or seen it before and will love it after you watched it :D . There is still such a big fanbase today,their univerese and story´s are quite nice and in depth and the plot almost through the whole series follows a straight line,it has such a nice humor that fits the actors so well,i consider it a real classic that brought a lot of joy watching it in my childhood after my dad showed my the first movie ^_^
I love your breakdown, but some parts of it are wrong. You've clearly not watched the series, but over all, I do like your overall breakdown and it's mostly on point. Well put together, too!
The special thing about the first movie was the fact they had two protagonist, each following the hero's journey, both refuse to answer the call, but only one returns home.
One alternative to going back and forth between series and episodes is to do a (mostly) half season switch. I say - mostly - because of a short back and forth with the Moebius-Siege crossover. Essentially (and this is how I got my parents to watch them because it was easier than switching discs all the time - this was before it was back on netflix) : Sg1 s8 New Order-Endgame Sga s1 Rising-The Eye Sg1 s8 Gemini-Reckoning Sga s1 The Defiant One-The Gift Sg1 s8 Threads-Moebius Sga s1 The Siege (including part 3 in sga s2) Sg1 s9 Avalon-The Fourth Horseman Sga s2 The Intruder-The Hive Sg1 s9 Collateral Damage-Camelot (including Flesh and Blood in s10) Sga s2 Epiphany-Inferno Sg1 s10 Morpheus-The Quest Sga s3 (with s2 Allies) No Man's Land-Phantoms Sg1 s10 finish series including Ark of Truth Sga s3 The Return (and onwards to s5 Search and Rescue) Sg1 Continuum Sga finish series Sgu
@@President_Vladimir_Putin i don't, personally. Maybe make it a drinking party and every time something looks like a green screen or ps3/xbox360 bloom take a drink
@HungLikeALemur I never disagreed :). You're right, it got repetitive and did not advance the story in anyway. I get why it happened, but the orginal plan was 10-12 seasons, or so I read.
I didn't like 3 things about Stargate Universe, but that was ok because there were 97 things I did like. Regarding Stargate SG1, never in the history of spaghetti sci-fi has so much technobabble held so much water for so long! 😍😍😍
I have watched the full 10 years Stargate SG-1 over and over again. Probably around 10+ times. Also watched Stargate Atlantis a few times. I have everything, movies and all on DVD. SG-1 is still my favorite and I could tell when Atlantis started that some people behind SG-1 took their focus off of SG-1 when that series started it all. I was disappointed by that. They shouldn't have the same people from SG-1 in charge of Atlantis.
I liked the show however it went in a completely different direction that the movies were going into. even the filmmakers said that it was way different than they were planning on it going. that all said this series ruled for several years so it deserves its own praise. The last mini series was exceptionally great and I hope they put more shows out
as an sg fan this was exciting but a little dissapointing, a lot of the facts were wrong and felt like a wiki article with misdrawn assumptions... maybe just ask a fan to help write/understand the series.
The correct order is SG1, SG Atlantis, bin Universe, repeat. Also the SG1 movies are great to watch between series, the original movie ain't canon but good to watch for an alternative universe vibe :P
The ancients aka the alterans and the Ori are actually the same race of people from the same world. Just two different fractions with different ideologies.
They changed the idea of space travel....different planets/environments/species....I'd have to binge again as it's been yrs since I was into stargate.....Universeshould have been given another season or at least 1/2 a season.....you know what else could have been good and taken a different spin but didn't get the chance terminator (Sarah Connor Chronicles) oh well Hollyweirds gone Hollywoke I think they're done....2 much comp with netflix hulu and prime.....I heard the Expanse is good but I only saw 2 episodes no memory of either.
Dialing in the right direction: Stargate (Film) Stargate SG-1 Seasons 1-8 Stargate Atlantis Season 1 Stargate SG-1 Season 9 Stargate Atlantis Season 2 Stargate SG-1 Season 10 Stargate Atlantis Season 3 Stargate: The Ark of Truth (First SG-1 Film) Stargate Atlantis Season 4 Stargate: Continuum (Second SG-1 Film) Stargate Atlantis Season 5 Stargate Universe Seasons 1-2 Stargate Origins (optional)
OK, let's start by the most important. All recommendations about the order to watch the show, sees to be right! But there's some critical errors in some references. The SGU is not were they foundout about the Ancients. That was in SG1. I'll watch all again with some time and take notes about the discrepancis I finded! But the videos was really good! Thank you guys!
Atlantis should never of been cancelled. It was still in its prime. Right also the wraith were never beaten on screen. They destroyed the super hive but they didn't defeat the species. Also why 6 ad breaks for a 10 min vid and make unskippable!!!
There is an actual list and it's not full season into full season. It lists each episode in order between SG1 and Atlantis. Universe came later altogether.
fun fact Ben Browder and Claudia Black both played main roles in the Farscape series and Richard Dean Anderson and Christopher Judge allready meet in MacGyver Season 5 Episode 13 Live And Learn atleast for Ben and Caludia both played in SciFi series before StarGate, that might have given them some experiance before joining the SG1
Thanks brother I've now seen all the series but was a little confused about the order of sg1 and stargate Atlantis so this makes sense and havint seen the movies except the original stargate one movie ,but now I know where to start with the rest of them 😁
I cringed more when he said “discovered the Ancients in SGU” - the franchise discovered (& dealt with) Ancients midway thru SG1, and had an entire _city_ built by Ancients in Atlantis, and yet SGU is when the race is first discovered?? 🙄
I know the real world reason Carter was transfered and put into power of the Pegasus Expedition. Tapping still had 2 years on her contract and so downgraded Dr weir. I never like that Dr Weir and LT Colonel Shepherd appeared to be downplayed. Carter was a military scientist and outranked everyone. Where as the first to third season Dr Weir was overall commander and had a brilliant working relationship with Shepherd. It was a nice balance between civilian military balance. Carter destroyed all that as it felt like an extention of StarGate Command.
The Ancients where NOT discovered in SGU. They where around for a long time in SG1
Indeed!

@@modarsesekil2408 if the fandom can write 1000 pages long sequels to atlantis and sg-1, then surely well paid script writers can revive the franchise by providing a new dynamic?
I wouldn't mind a new show where the stargate program is about go public and we follow a new team with members from different countries and backgrounds. It would give a good mix of sg-1 and Atlantis vibes
@@MrZOMBIESx and who is going to be the big bad wolf? They are done with Wraith, Goa'uld and the Ori.
@@modarsesekil2408 that's a good question, although they aren't done with the wraith they only stopped them from feasting on earth they are still all over Pegasus. Other than that the Lucian alliance is still around, definitely not as threating as the other big bads, there also could be an invasion of a race of aliens from another galaxy. Idk just spit balling here I always enjoyed the episodes that didn't have to do with the main bad guys that I dont really need one I loved the themes of exploration and discovery in the series never knowing what was going to be on the next planet (except for a lot of green that looks suspiciously like the area around Vancouver.)
What? New Stargate videos? THE FANDOM IS STARTING TO AWAKEN FROM HIBERNATION LIKE THE WRAITH IN RISING!!! I HAVE WAITED FOR SO LONG!!!
I'll support any and all endeavors when it comes to Stargate. The Stargates are the best SyFy Series. I really miss them. ❤️
Do you think they should do a remake of them, or should they leave well enough alone.
Turns out 8 years is enough time to forget about this show, and rewatching now I cant remember it at all.
Thanks for the Stargate content. That series was so good. Nice to relive it in your videos.
The Stargate franchise has such a great rewatch value finished SGA just recently going back to SG1 😊
I watch it through once a year. I adore the SG franchise.
I loved the Atlantis spin-off. I binged on it again just recently.
Nice summary there. But there are two errors.
Ark of true takes place before SGA 3x20 First strike. And Continuum takes place after SGA 5x01 Search and Rescue. (it is explicitly mentioned in the end of that episode by Carter) ;)
Other than that, it is great ;)
I love stargaze I can’t believe I finally gave it a chance last year and loved it
odd enough, nowdays we learn that in fact the end of universe might be even further away than what was thought! SGU should have continuation indeed!!!
I think SG1 and SGA are better than SGU, but I think both SGA and SGU figured out where to go right as they got cancelled. I hope Amazon brings it back and in the same cannon.
Jackson did NOT advocate alien builders. He specifically states he doesn't know who built them but it wasn't the people of the period believed
It's high time we have a new Stargate series, seriously.
An amazing franchise. I've watched all of it (except Origins) three times now.
deffo the best syfi series i've ever watched over 10 times
For those with the imagination, would suggest watching the Battlestar Galactica franchise and see if anyone else comes to the same conclusion of how BSG and Stargate Franchise are of the same universe ;) For instance with how the BSG ends and the level of Technology they were at at that time they very well could be "The Ancients" in the SG franchise. Tons of other ways of linking them as well, you'll even see many familiar faces that appear in both franchises. Also take note to what is said at the end of BSG "This has all happened before, it will all happen again", then in Atlantis when Wier goes back in time the "Ancient" that helps her mentions that she (current humanity) is the 2nd evolution of them (the Ancients) which is another tie of the 2 together.
LOVE BSG as well :D
I've never seen BSG except for a few episodes that come on Comet TV so my knowledge of the franchise comes from the intros. I am a huge fan of Stargate and your idea makes me want to watch BSG.
BSG is headed to Earth, "the birthplace of humanity" but the Ancients evolved in an entirely different galaxy and were forced to the Milky Way by the Ori were they seeded planets with humanity 2.0 and then did the same thing again when they fled from a plague to the Pegasus galaxy. So that means that the humans of BSG can't be the Ancients but they could be either descendants or creation of the Tau'ri (the humans that were created on earth by the Ancients). Lastly, what you said about the technology level, where Stargate ended, the Tau'ri had nearly all of the knowledge of both the Ancients and Asgard plus several other species that they could also learn from.
I’ve read some really good crossover fanfics but i don’t think linking BSG with Ancients will work well. 🤷♂️
tfw im currently re-watching stargate Atlantis which is by far one of my favorites.
Stargate - Such a monumental and fantastic series of series-es and movies!!
Greatest Syfy series out there and seems feasibility realistic.
Just started rewatching it this week :-) Loved it as a kid and seen it countless times over the years.
I never watched Stargate Origin. In my opinion nothing can beat Stargate SG1 . 20 years ago I was a big fan. Now there is talk about a reunion and I am ready for it !
I would have skipped the original movie in this order. Start with the 2 hour pilot episode of sg1..it was a better origin story
@Dark Sith Lord the show is a direct sequel to the film. Film introduces Jackson and O'neill, Catheryn Langford, death of Ra and Stargate programm itself. Sure, they give exposition to all of this but seeing it for youself is way better.
@Dark Sith Lord they have changed some character personalities and the nature of goauld thats called retcon. Not the only time this happens - remember zat.s third shot? But the events of the movie happened in the continuity of series that is a fact. If a newbie skips movie, as you suggest, he will be confused and will have to guess wtf is going on on the screen. Why do they send napkins through stargate? Who the hell is Skaara and Sha're and Kasuf and why are they important to Daniel and Jack? And so on.
@Dark Sith Lord who the frack cares, they can still enjoy the first movie as it does introduce things. And there was a lot of time in universe between the first movie and SG-1, people change. Get over it.
As someone who watched SG1 before watching the film, I can definitely say that the film is essential background info that’d cause confusion if it was skipped.
Also, “SG1 is an adaptation, not a sequel”?? Do you not know what adaptations are? If SG1 was an adaptation, it would’ve retold the events of the film in a different way. Instead, it’s set a year after the events of the film, and holds the basic plot points of the film as preexisting history. That is a _Sequel_ , not an _Adaptation._ 🤦♂️
@Dark Sith Lord I have done my research. You clearly need a dictionary.
When a sequel/spinoff/adaptation allows new viewers to understand the basic story/premise without needing to watch the (entire) original media, that doesn't _Automatically_ mean that the new media is an "adaptation" of its predecessor; that's just good accessibility. - By that logic, Star Wars Ep1 is an "adaptation" of Ep4, because of the accessibility to new viewers to the SW universe (when it's clearly a prequel along the same continuity).
Now, saying that the O'Neill & Jackson _Characters_ are adaptations _of their film counterparts_ , that would make sense, as they're clearly not carbon copies, and the characters were *_Adjusted_* to fit the new medium & story structure.
-However, this doesn't _Automatically_ mean that _The Entire Show_ is an adaptation of the original film, as it's clearly telling a _Subsequent, Followup_ story to the film (ie a _Sequel_ ) and not telling the _Same_ story in a different format (which is what most adaptations are).
i kinda wish the new show *maybe) will take place after atlantis. dont really need a big bad group right off the bat. sgu was a good idea but it was to much like a day time drama. for a crew that was limited some one or more died each episode and two people had feelings in each. the explore aspect felt like it was the last thing they focused on. if they go with that for the next show (once again they say its a thing but its when not if) they need to get back to sg-1 type. i dont want a reboot cause im sure we will get copy cat shows and no ill watch the orginal.
I really think that is best for you to start with the miniseries Stargate: Origin which is canon , taking place in 1939, several decades before the events of the 1994 Stargate film. It follows a young Catherine Langford a minor character from the 1994 film and Stargate SG-1.
It’s a bs series that doesn’t follow the lore as told through SG-1. Besides ignoring this series and SGU, all anyone need is the first movie, SG-1 and SG:A plus the two movies.
Stargate Universe must continue ...
Eli is still out there
@@Ltulrich Eli may still out there but considering if universe would pick up in 3 years.....would Eli still be there?
@@stargate6245 Eli would discover an ancient outpost or a crashed ancients ship that had what he needed to survive including stasis machines. He’d just leave a message for the rest of the crew.
@@TheMank999 oh yeah. And Rush would take credit it somehow. 😑
I've watched these TV shows at least thrice each
And I know exactly how to watch them
I'm still watching this video just to make sure
Fun Fact: I was watching Stargate Atlantis when I got this notification.
same, i was in season 5.
Me too
I was watching SGU
Not really a fun fact. At all
Amé las series Stargate durante todos esos años, así como a Amanda Tapping en su rol de Samanta Carter. Y después sus repeticiones...
Thanks for this. I’ve already finish the series , following you recommendations. I truly enjoyed it much better than the first time I saw it. Thanks for the good work.
This presentation really puts things into perspective for me. Was turned around a few times while watching the whole series franchise. I've written them down as described and will keep them as a reference point next time I begin to watch them all. Thank you ! ! !
Its clear the people who wrote the script for this video have not watched the series closely enough and got lots of the details wrong. But they did get the order to watch them in correct which is good. Highly Recommend Stargate, it's the best Sci Fi iv'e ever watched.
Fantastic franchise 👍 seriously is aust watch for any sci-fi fans out there! I can't wait for the heavily implied new series that's being worked on 😁😁😁
Stargate The Movie: A+
Stargate SG-1: A+
Stargate Atlantis: A+
Stargate Universe: SEE ME AFTER CLASS
With Stargate it´s either you love it or have never heard or seen it before and will love it after you watched it :D . There is still such a big fanbase today,their univerese and story´s are quite nice and in depth and the plot almost through the whole series follows a straight line,it has such a nice humor that fits the actors so well,i consider it a real classic that brought a lot of joy watching it in my childhood after my dad showed my the first movie ^_^
Problem: SG1 knew of the Ancients before season 7 and later they discovered that they were called Altairans.
I love your breakdown, but some parts of it are wrong. You've clearly not watched the series, but over all, I do like your overall breakdown and it's mostly on point. Well put together, too!
The special thing about the first movie was the fact they had two protagonist, each following the hero's journey, both refuse to answer the call, but only one returns home.
Thanks for reminding people of this fantastic franchise. MGM - make a new show ffs!
I wish they would make two more seasons of "Stargate universe".
It was just getting good. They left me hanging.
Thanks for clearing all this up, I used to know the orders but I forget :D LOVE Stargate, I really hope they revisit it soon :D
One alternative to going back and forth between series and episodes is to do a (mostly) half season switch. I say - mostly - because of a short back and forth with the Moebius-Siege crossover.
Essentially (and this is how I got my parents to watch them because it was easier than switching discs all the time - this was before it was back on netflix) :
Sg1 s8 New Order-Endgame
Sga s1 Rising-The Eye
Sg1 s8 Gemini-Reckoning
Sga s1 The Defiant One-The Gift
Sg1 s8 Threads-Moebius
Sga s1 The Siege (including part 3 in sga s2)
Sg1 s9 Avalon-The Fourth Horseman
Sga s2 The Intruder-The Hive
Sg1 s9 Collateral Damage-Camelot (including Flesh and Blood in s10)
Sga s2 Epiphany-Inferno
Sg1 s10 Morpheus-The Quest
Sga s3 (with s2 Allies) No Man's Land-Phantoms
Sg1 s10 finish series including Ark of Truth
Sga s3 The Return (and onwards to s5 Search and Rescue)
Sg1 Continuum
Sga finish series
Sgu
Stargate Origin ?
where to start in timeline order ?
@@President_Vladimir_Putin i don't, personally. Maybe make it a drinking party and every time something looks like a green screen or ps3/xbox360 bloom take a drink
I loved Stargate Atlantis and was bummed when it was cancelled
It wasnt cancel, they had a series finale
@@Pedroism It was meant for 10-12 seasons just like SG1, but they pulled the plug and had to wrap up.
@HungLikeALemur I never disagreed :). You're right, it got repetitive and did not advance the story in anyway. I get why it happened, but the orginal plan was 10-12 seasons, or so I read.
I didn't like 3 things about Stargate Universe, but that was ok because there were 97 things I did like. Regarding Stargate SG1, never in the history of spaghetti sci-fi has so much technobabble held so much water for so long! 😍😍😍
I turn the channel every-time SGU comes up!
I have watched the full 10 years Stargate SG-1 over and over again. Probably around 10+ times. Also watched Stargate Atlantis a few times. I have everything, movies and all on DVD. SG-1 is still my favorite and I could tell when Atlantis started that some people behind SG-1 took their focus off of SG-1 when that series started it all. I was disappointed by that. They shouldn't have the same people from SG-1 in charge of Atlantis.
I liked the show however it went in a completely different direction that the movies were going into. even the filmmakers said that it was way different than they were planning on it going. that all said this series ruled for several years so it deserves its own praise. The last mini series was exceptionally great and I hope they put more shows out
Best tv ever made and I miss them so much
No spoiler alerts? Come on, man!
as an sg fan this was exciting but a little dissapointing, a lot of the facts were wrong and felt like a wiki article with misdrawn assumptions... maybe just ask a fan to help write/understand the series.
The correct order is SG1, SG Atlantis, bin Universe, repeat.
Also the SG1 movies are great to watch between series, the original movie ain't canon but good to watch for an alternative universe vibe :P
The ancients aka the alterans and the Ori are actually the same race of people from the same world. Just two different fractions with different ideologies.
Indeed
Cant wait for the new continuity of the franchise, hopefully for 2022 we get it. With today's tech and cool new props, this will be epic
Yeah I'd rather not have new continuity. Why change things that were good? Just make something new, don't rewrite a show's story.
Wish they would make another spinoff. Not a reboot.
SG1 is my favorite Sci fi show of all time. Combining with Atlantis makes it even better. Universe was ok but Origins was garbage
They changed the idea of space travel....different planets/environments/species....I'd have to binge again as it's been yrs since I was into stargate.....Universeshould have been given another season or at least 1/2 a season.....you know what else could have been good and taken a different spin but didn't get the chance terminator (Sarah Connor Chronicles) oh well Hollyweirds gone Hollywoke I think they're done....2 much comp with netflix hulu and prime.....I heard the Expanse is good but I only saw 2 episodes no memory of either.
This video is giving false information. You are suppose to skip Stargate Origins altogether not watch it last. :)
i concur lol
Dialing in the right direction:
Stargate (Film)
Stargate SG-1 Seasons 1-8
Stargate Atlantis Season 1
Stargate SG-1 Season 9
Stargate Atlantis Season 2
Stargate SG-1 Season 10
Stargate Atlantis Season 3
Stargate: The Ark of Truth (First SG-1 Film)
Stargate Atlantis Season 4
Stargate: Continuum (Second SG-1 Film)
Stargate Atlantis Season 5
Stargate Universe Seasons 1-2
Stargate Origins (optional)
OK, let's start by the most important. All recommendations about the order to watch the show, sees to be right! But there's some critical errors in some references.
The SGU is not were they foundout about the Ancients. That was in SG1. I'll watch all again with some time and take notes about the discrepancis I finded!
But the videos was really good! Thank you guys!
Stargate inspired many of my life decisions.
bro look at my name
Its Don S. Davis ,have some respect for the guy.
Atlantis should never of been cancelled. It was still in its prime.
Right also the wraith were never beaten on screen. They destroyed the super hive but they didn't defeat the species.
Also why 6 ad breaks for a 10 min vid and make unskippable!!!
Been binging this on Netflix lately. Little bit cheesy but still fun to watch.
indeed
Favorite show of all time! In that order lol
you may want to look up on you tube StarGate Infinity
Can’t wait for Stargate: Lt. Ford‼️
Correct order to watch Stargate.
1) Watch Movie
2) Watch SG-1
There is nothing of worth beyond that.
There is an actual list and it's not full season into full season. It lists each episode in order between SG1 and Atlantis. Universe came later altogether.
Bring all of them BACK !!!
I LOVE Stargate and do want more content. But I'm nervous that'd it wouldn't have the same feel.
Still love the franchise.
Hope to see SG soon! I miss this show,.
fun fact
Ben Browder and Claudia Black both played main roles in the Farscape series
and Richard Dean Anderson and Christopher Judge allready meet in MacGyver Season 5 Episode 13 Live And Learn
atleast for Ben and Caludia both played in SciFi series before StarGate, that might have given them some experiance before joining the SG1
Thanks brother I've now seen all the series but was a little confused about the order of sg1 and stargate Atlantis so this makes sense and havint seen the movies except the original stargate one movie ,but now I know where to start with the rest of them 😁
My two all time favorite series.
You didn’t even mention that Atlantis stars Jason Mamoa before he became a huge star.
Yes, he was on Atlantis before he became king of Atlantis.
Anyone else cringe slightly when they called Teal'c a Renegade Goa'uld?
I know they said Goa'uld warrior, but that's still not technically correct.
Simplifying it for a completely new audience makes a lot of sense though. They made that reference in Wormhole X-treme.
I cringed more when he said “discovered the Ancients in SGU” - the franchise discovered (& dealt with) Ancients midway thru SG1, and had an entire _city_ built by Ancients in Atlantis, and yet SGU is when the race is first discovered?? 🙄
@@UGNAvalon Exactly !!!
4:21 I thought that the second "biggest opponent" was the attempts to finally go fishing as a team that O'neil was trying to do for 2-3 seasons :D
I know the real world reason Carter was transfered and put into power of the Pegasus Expedition. Tapping still had 2 years on her contract and so downgraded Dr weir.
I never like that Dr Weir and LT Colonel Shepherd appeared to be downplayed.
Carter was a military scientist and outranked everyone.
Where as the first to third season Dr Weir was overall commander and had a brilliant working relationship with Shepherd. It was a nice balance between civilian military balance.
Carter destroyed all that as it felt like an extention of StarGate Command.
Teal’c is Jaffa, there is a big difference
Indeed
Needed this before quarentine started
