Right. I've thought from the first episode I saw that Jack and Teal'c are awesome. After watching some more, I am now of the opinion that Daniel is so cute and enthusiastic and adorably dorky that I may explode, and that Cameron I DON'T MEAN CAMERON I MEAN SAM THAT WAS A GENUINE ERROR that Sam is lovely and I adore her. So, yes, I am now fangirling the entire SG-1 team. That was quick.
I'm not exactly a General Hammond fangirl, though. In fact, I sort of resent him for having Richard Hammond's last name while being the exact opposite of Richard Hammond in every way and therefore confusing me immensely. CHANGE YOUR NAME, GENERAL HAMMOND. YOU'RE SO INCONSIDERATE.
Singularity was the episode that really made me go 'OMG SAM I LOVE YOU.' Oh, Sam. She reminded me very strongly of Cameron in that episode, which is a good thing if you consider the fact that I adore Cameron but a horribly confusing one if you consider the fact that Hammond is sort of the equivalent of Cuddy, Daniel reminds me of Chase and Jack is clearly the unholy child of House and Wilson (so much so that I wrote a tiny House-gets-Wilson-pregnant-with-Jack-O'Neill ficsnippet, breaking my resolution Never To Write Mpreg, just for the sake of traumatising
dracothelizard. You can't see it. It is my eternal shame. Are you regretting your decision to introduce me to SG-1 yet,
draegonhawke?). I'm actually sort of disappointed that Teal'c doesn't seem to share any traits with Foreman beyond skin colour and being awesome, because it would have been oddly perfect if the SG-1 team had had equivalents of the entire House cast.
Er. Anyway, crossoverish thoughts and shameful shameful ficsnippets aside, Singularity is probably my favourite of the episodes I've seen so far. It made me weep uncontrollably and fall in love with Sam and adore Teal'c even more than I already did, purely because of his attempt to appear friendly and the following exchange:
TEAL'C: I still do not understand this black hole.
JACK: Well, a black hole is... it's a really big... thing. Uh, basically, it's a massive... hole. Out there.
(pause)
TEAL'C: I see.
Teal'c is awesome. (Also, have you noticed that Jack seems to be finding reasons to be alone with Teal'c all the time? Maybe it's just the episodes I've been watching.)
Also, I am fairly sure that Jack O'Neill is one of those characters whom I am happy to pair up with absolutely anyone, much like Captain Jack Harkness and Gregory House. And I cannot believe that I haven't yet mentioned that a Stargate SG-1 and Silent Hill crossover would be amazing. Nobody is allowed to force me to write it yet, because I'm not yet nearly familiar enough with the SG-1 cast, but it needs to be said.
(Why can't I ever make entries that don't cross things over any more? It is a disease. But, while I'm at it: the Top Gear team as Stargate agents. Discuss.)

And I would like to say that I wasn't traumatised by House/Wilson, traumatising me would involve ridiculous declarations of love, single tears and red lacy knickers.
I am glad you are already seeing Jack O'Neill's intergalactic flirting hussiness.
"The Top Gear team as Stargate agents."
Clarkson would be the leader, Hammond would be his overly eager second-in-command and May would be the long-suffering non-Air Force sciency bloke.
"Kree!"
"What? May, you're the scientics, what did he say?"
"My area of expertise is aerodynamics, not foreign languages, but if you must know, he just told you to shut up and obey."
"I'm not obeying someone who got dressed in the dark!"
"Well, Hammond, we can't all have your fashion consciousness."
"Kneel before your god!"
"I'm sorry, I already worship Roger Daltrey."
"Is he a Tau'ri like you?"
"What's a - "
"Person from Earth, Clarkson, I thought you knew that by now."
"Yes, yes, he is. Except he's better than I am, obviously."
"Then we will go to your planet, kill this Roger Daltrey god of yours and enslave your people."
"Well done, Jeremy, you've just started an intergalactic war."
"That's Colonel Clarkson to you, shorty."
Also, does knowing about Stargate make you enjoy my Stargate/Top Gear crossover (http://dracothelizard.livejournal.com/307849.html) in whole new ways?

I LOVE YOU, DRACO. SO MUCH THAT I WEPT A SINGLE TEAR WHILE THINKING THAT YOU WOULD NEVER RETURN MY AFFECTIONS. I STILL HAVE YOUR GLASGOW ADDRESS AND AM SENDING A PAIR OF RED LACY KNICKERS IMMEDIATELY.
No, wait, you probably meant the characters, didn't you?
Well, of course the Stig would have to be on the team as well, because you've got to have an alien. AND ALSO THEY ARE FANTASTIC AND I LOVE THEM. Starting an intergalactic war! WORST AGENTS EVER.
I started re-reading it and then got dragged off the computer! Thank you for reminding me that I need to finish reading it again.

Yes! Although this is obviously not supposed to lead to you writing fanfic with all things that worry me in them!
I was thinking about 'who would their long-suffering fourth member be' before just ignoring it and of course it would be the Stig, who they picked up from another planet.
"What d'you mean, we can't keep him? SG-1 has that Jaffa of theirs!"
"Teal'c is a useful ally who has helped us by providing information about the Goa'uld. What can this... Stig provide?"
"He's, er, really good with cars. He can win any race."
"Right."
"And - and his people are really advanced when it comes to cars and motors! We can learn so much from them."
"Also, Doctor Jackson wants to study his non-verbal communication."
"...Fine. Keep him. But he's your responsibility."

"No idea. May?"
"Did it ever occur to you that these missions might be easier if you actually listened to what we're supposed to do?"
"We don't need to, do we? We've got you."
"We're supposed to find the people of this planet and try to establish trading routes."
"...But they've already confirmed that there's no life on this planet, haven't they?"
"General Hammond just said that we should look really hard."

I'm sorry, Clarkson is *never* going to fit in there. And Hammond will just rattle around in it...

I'm so very happy you're enjoying it! (Re: pairings; ehn, I'm used to all of my friends having higher pairing incidents than me. Mostly it doesn't faze me any more.) And I'm also impressed, because I'm not lying when I say it took me on into Season 3 to get hooked. (Season 1 I mostly dismissed until the last two discs, Season 2 was enough to keep me interested, Season 3 got me interested and Season 4 grabbed me and never let go.)
Hey, tell me when you reach the episode Secrets, okay? There's an episode right after it that's hugely plot-important and terribly executed, and a two parter, so even though I've stopped inflicting it on others I'm going to have to give you a snarky summary.

Solitudes made me feel awful for Sam (who I, once again, typed as 'Cameron'. Aaah!). All of the characters have had a pretty miserable time of things, really; the only character who hasn't had an episode devoted to their horrible suffering so far is Daniel, and he still had that terrible conflicting moment at the end of Thor's Hammer.
Well, as I'd already been assured that Stargate is awesome by people I respect, I suppose I'm more receptive to it at the early stages of viewing. Or, er, something.

In a series that's reasonably historically accurate (one of the glorious things about Sharpe is that the regiment is incredibly well documented, not just with memoirs from the officers, but also at least one from one of the men?) but basically has the sense to look at historical accuracy and go "oh well, we'll do it when we don't have anything better to do" and go ahead with the glorious slashiness and action (actually, most of the action is reasonably accurate, the green jackets getting up to a lot of shenanigans that are remarkably well recorded).

I'm sure that I once saw a TG/SG-1 cross-over fic. Something about the team testing cars. Anyhoo, here's my pathetic attempt...
"Why is there a worm in your stomach?"
"James, he's obviously been to McDonald's."
"Do they do cottage pie?"

I got something that covers two bases: Richard Hammond is actually General Hammond's son. Or nephew. Something happens so that he finds out about the Stargate program, gets dragged into the SGC, and voila. INSTANT CROSSOVER.
