Stargate Oversight
Welcome to Stargate Oversight, a podcast featuring three British people who try to understand the perspective of the American military as presented by a Canadian television show. We’re here to talk about the good stuff episode by episode. Covering ideas of patriotism/nationalism among other things, we talk about how great our troops are and how they have never done anything wrong. Sometimes we even tell the truth about what happens in each episode.

This is a preview of a bonus episode aavailable on our patreon for $3.50
Have you ever been sissy hypnoed so hard that you forget members of your own family? Whomst among us. For this bonus episode, Hope decided to torture us all by making us watch and discuss the BBC Sherlock finale. Frosty had not seen it before and holy shit was it bad. How can a show that was already mediocre fall off so hard? Well, let me tell you how! You need only a list of simple ingredients: misogyny, the world's worst Saw traps, deliberate fan alienation, magic, and more misogyny. In the humble opinion of this podcast, never let Moffat write a television show ever again.In addition to discussing how mad this episode made all of us, we also discuss the bizarre fan reaction and conspiracy theories of cope surrounding the possibility of a mysterious secret hidden true finale to come in the future. It's okay, everyone. Your favourite show just sucked and you're realising it now. Join us for the dumbest episode of television ever. A plot that can only work because Mycroft apparently decided to sniff glue and drink copious amounts of paint thinner. Yes, sure, let's let my magic hypnosis sister meet the world's most dastardly super criminal for a chat because she Twitters really good. Sorry, Xs really good.

Woahhhh it's a time travel episode! I've just spoiled it for you in the first sentence like I'm the TV Guide, which is a thing that Frosty is definetly old enough to remember. Just like fondly remembering the TV Guide, it's time for us to explore the past and experience nostalgia for the 1960s where you could apparently just dress like that.
It's 1969, an important year in the history of the United States. You might remember this as the year that NASA pretended to land on the moon with an overly elaborate studio recording designed to make us all believe that space exists and the Earth is spherical. We all know it's an undefineable, non-euclydean shape.
Honestly, this is just a really fun episode.

We just can't get enough of absolutely weird episodes this season, can we? This episode of Stargate SG-1, our favourite loveable crew of war criminals encounter an old adversary of theirs that they seem destined to always fight. No, we aren't talking about the Goa'uld. We're talking about something far, far more sinister. Child acting.
Our episode begins with an unauthorised gate activation, which is how every season 2 episode begins now, and a little surprise is delivered to us. A random small child in a fursuit has come to sow destruction to the family unit of the United States along with his invisible bug mother, which the woke crowd are forcing us to consider the child's actual mother. It's okay, 2/3 of this podcast are allowed to make these jokes.
Jack O'Neill is constantly reminded of his dead child. We get returning guest stars the Tok'Ra. But best of all, we get the greatest returning champion of them all; bad decision making.

Content Warning: Racism, Torture, Misogyny/Extreme Violence towards women
This was a mistake. This was a horrible mistake.
Recently, a dearly beloved hero of the British people passed away. "Celebrity Gangster" Dave Courtney, who made a name of himself by pretending to have been a reformed ruthless criminal with tales of Chinese restaurant sword fights. Worse than any of these crimes that he may, or may not, have commited was the one that he subjected onto us personally. He was in a movie. Actually, he was in several movies, but this is the one that we picked. What a movie it was.
2014's Full English Breakfast, directed by beloved NHS commercial director Manish Patel, is the absolute most dogshit attempt at a Guy Ritchie movie any of us have ever seen. Be prepared for bad overdubbing, the most low budget Half-Life stock sounds you've ever heard, racism, Metal Gear Solid discourse (again), and extreme misogyny. Hope blames me for this one, but she planted the seed in my head here.
Seriously. Don't ever watch this movie. It's awful.

Told you there was another Anniversary gift to comeIt's time for yet another bonus! This time was Ryan's pick, so you can blame him for whatever this movie was. We took a look at an 80s... uhh...classic(?) Hard Ticket to Hawaii in which the world's worst DEA agents take down some kind of drug ring ruled by a white guy from Hong Kong with weird vibes. There's also a deadly toxic snake in there somewhere. Honestly, the plot doesn't matter in the slightest. This whole thing is just a vehicle for gratuitous scenes showing naked women mixed with some bad practical effects and even worse acting.There's also a skateboard
And remember, the GEP Gun is always the best weapon to pick at the start.

Look, I don't know, okay?
Stuff happens in this episode and there are these weird naked dudes covered in weird paint who have no spoken language other than screaming. They get COVID or something, idk. Our crew finally got a UAV killstreak and it smallpox blankets an entire planet of people, which is an unconventional COD lobby strategy, but we'll see how it plays out.
Our beloved Hope is AWOL on this episode trying to escape deepstate assassins, so it's a first for the podcast with a Ryan and Frosty only special!

And after our weird ACAB old man episode, we're back with an episode with an interesting idea undercut by one constant question: Why don't you just shoot the bastard? After all this time, the squad has finally apprehended Apophis by mere chance after investingating a supposed Tok'ra signal through Gate. Or perhaps it was more planned than it seems.
Apophis spends this episode being involved with some kind of kink play whilst attempting to play master chess manipulation with all the members of SG-1, who roundly tell him to fuck off. Carter and Hammond have to hold Jack back from just double tapping him. But why? Well, because if they just shot him, we wouldn't have 40 minutes of television as that would have actually just resolved the plot in about 2 minutes.
We also discover the concept of Two-Face Hammond. Rather than his coin being the side of fairness and justice, with the other side being derangement and cruelty, Hammond is flip flopping between two different alter egos. Democrats as portrayed by The West Wing and Average Texas Republican™.
As we were on a time limit for recording this one, we had to set ourselves the goal of limiting the bits, the goofs, and the gaffs. We failed.

Extended cut available on our Patreon!Hope: I had to cut well over an hour of our bullshit.
Welcome to the sequel to Face/Off, where Daniel swaps faces with an old man as we get to see Michael Shanks in old man makeup doing some of the absolute worst acting you've ever seen. I'm sorry, we love you, but the old man acting in this one was a bit of a stinker. In contrast, we get to see Christopher Judge pretending to be Jack O'Neill and absolutely killing it. We briefly discuss how good an actor he is and how underused he usually seems to be in the role of Teal'c.
Our favourite crew of Airforce guys and their nerd twink bf stumble upon another weird box room through the Stargate. Here they encounter the aformentioned old man who has been crafting technology to fight the Goa'uld, including a funky mind switching box. What ensues is the exact same plot with Teal'c from Bane where old guy in Daniel's body hangs out in the city, makes friends with a very sweet homeless guy, and gets to learn about the proud parts of human culture. Just the best parts, like the ice cream and police brutality.
I guess Stargate says ACAB?

Ok we're a little late. our anniversary was at the start of October. Buuut Today's episode is running late. So here's a late anniversary giftNow comes our fourth bonus episode where we cover the story of a man who cannot fight who pretends that he can fight, but sure can he cook. That's right, we're covering the 1992 action movie Under Siege featuring Steven Seagal. He can't act, he can't fight, and this awful movie is apparently his best work. It's going downhill from here, folks. The only saving grace of this movie are the other actors who are just hamming it up to the most delicious degrees. Looking at you, Tommy Lee Jones.
Get your pies out of the oven, get your nukes ready, because we're your date for tonight.

Alright, listen 'ere you fuckin prat. This episode we're talkin' about a fuckin movie called Snatch by Guy fuckin Ritchie from the fuckin 2000s. When the anti-semitic non-union counterpart of the Payday gang pull off a successful Antwerp diamond heist, the ensuing fervour to get a hold of this diamond and how it manages to co-mingle itself with the London underground fighting scene serves to teach us all one important lesson. England is a shit country, don't come here.
Welcome to 2000 London, a place where every gangster is hilariously incompetent, surprisingly erudite, an ex-footballer, or some combination of those elements. We've got gambling geezers, we've got...really 'ard gambling geezers, really bad comedy gangsters, Americans, pigs, and more!Oh, yeah. Brad Pitt is playing an Irish traveller. An Irish traveller in the UK. One who is in the UK in the year 2000. Yeah, there's gonna be some slurs in this one.
It's kinda a rough one in that regard and we talk a little about the UK's culture towards Travellers and the Roma people, but as outsiders and not as experts. If you want to know more information about how these groups of people are impacted in the UK, to learn more, and about how you can help out:https://travellermovement.org.uk/
