Stargate - Kommando SG-1 Revelations (1997–2007) Online

When Thor is captured by Osiris, the SG-1 teams up with the scientist Heimdall to plan how to rescue Thor from the Goa'uld. While Osiris is waiting for her master Anubis in her spaceship, Jack and Teal'c are transported to the place and guided Sam from the laboratory. Heimdall is researching a means to reverse the degradation process in his race caused by successive cloning, studying the preserved corpse of an original Asgard. Meanwhile Anubis comes and uses a device of unknown technology to connect Thor's brain to the computer. Will Jack and Teal 'c be capable of saving Thor?

"Revelations" is a great episode of "Stargate SG-1" that shows the breeding process, actually cloning, of the Asgard race. Anubis is using advanced non-Goa'uld technology and how he achieved it. The special effects are top-notch in this show. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "Revelations"

This is a solid episode with some action, lots of bizarre events and technologies, and food for thought.

First of all, it is interesting to watch the remaining members of SG1 deal with their loss. While Jack and Teal'c are acting tough and warrior-like, Carter is having a hard time coping (but then she's always the most affected whenever someone disappears.) As a result, maybe, I thought that the "team spirit" was a bit lacking here -which in a way feels right, as it emphasizes how much part of it Daniel was.

Apart from that, both story lines are interesting. The discovery we make about the Asgaard is rather capital if you consider that in a way they are "us" in a few million years (and the issue of their genetic dead end will come up later). Even more interesting is what happens with Thor; up until now, the Asgaard had been regarded as the most powerful race in the universe, and Earth's greatest defense against the Goa'uld. Having them suddenly become vulnerable and having their technological advances become available to Anubis (who makes his first appearance as Public Enemy #1) is a terrible blow for Earth, and announces hard times to come.

Despite the quality of this episode, however, I have to say that this episode simply does not pack enough punch for a finale. Daniel's passing was highly emotional, but finishing a season on its aftermath, mixed with several ominous but so far, not completely dramatic revelations, leaves me a bit unsatisfied, and less eager than I usually am to watch next season's premiere.
