Genie’s SG1 Rewatch: Hathor
Season 1, Episode 14. With special appearances by @amaradangeli​​ and @sharim28​​. In which I make love to capslock and say fuck a lot because THIS FUCKING EPISODE IS THE WORST. (TW for mentions of rape because THIS FUCKING EPISODE IS THE WOOOOOOOORST.)
PREVIEW:
6:03 PM Fucking Carroll and Carren A curse upon their houses Multitudinous legos on their floors in the middle of the night Constant lukewarm milk A thing that rattles incessantly in their car that they can never find A SiriusXM membership they can never cancel This episode constantly playing in the background in every waiting room they ever visit with a sign that says “DO NOT TOUCH TV” so they are forever reminded of their ABYSMAL FAILURE AS WRITERS
@geneeste​, 5:01 PM Okay, I’m finally sucking it up and watching Hathor
@amaradangeli​, 5:01 PM peace be with you
@geneeste, 5:01 PM But I’ll be knitting while I watch, so there probably won’t be much commentary for this one
5:14 PM I’m naming this guy Entitled White Scientist of Exposition I hope he’s the first to die Omg this writing is already so bad And also these actors Shut uuuuuuuup Please Hathor come First time I’ve ever rooted for the goa’uld, I’ll tell you NOT MUCH COMMENTARY I LIIIIIIEEEEEED
5:18 PM J Larry Carroll and David Carren have a lot to answer for, by golly Right now I’m asking myself how badly I really don’t want to knit this sweater if willing to use this episode to avoid it It must be a lot
5:21 PM This poor actress YES DANIEL THE CUFFS ARE NECESSARY So much casual sexism already Uuuggggh I can do this I can WHY ARE YOU APOLOGIZING TO THE GOA’ULD DANIEL Why are Hammond and Jack just standing there
5:26 PM This is so ridiculous
Tumblr media
5:27 PM I’m just gonna devolve into gifs again I can feel it coming I’m 6 minutes in How has it only been 6 minutes How did they get Don Davis to do this
5:29 PM Groossss why the hell would you send someone to local agencies who knows ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT THE STARGATE This writing is SO BAD
Tumblr media
5:32 PM Okay, I lied again I can’t actually do this I’m gonna skip some shit
5:34 PM I hate how they just glossed over the fact that Hathor drugged and raped Daniel IT IS SO FUCKING GROSS
Tumblr media
5:36 PM I hate literally everything about this episode
Tumblr media
5:39 PM Why are Hammond and Daniel staring at each other What the fuck does that have to do with anything I hate this I hate this I hate this 
5:40 PM I think I might hate it more than Brief Candle WHY DOES THIS EPISODE EXIST Did Hathor’s pink juice make all of the guys terrible actors What is the excuse for this
5:42 PM “Don’t be impolite, Captain” Is it possible this whole episode is some kind of complex allegory about toxic masculinity and misogyny PLEASE LET IT BE A COMPLEX ALLEGORY INSTEAD OF A FLAMING CESSPOOL OF TWO DUDES’ WORST SEXUAL FANTASIES PLEEAAAASE
5:47 PM Also goa’uld reproduction as the show presented it has never made any fucking sense
5:49 PM Also this gross ep is so heteronormative What about the queer men and women and others? Why aren’t they mesmerized too? Is Stargate trying to tell me there isn’t a single gay person in the entire mountain????
5:53 PM Several of these women are not meeting the uniform code/grooming standards and this is also making me irrationally angry Like, we need military women to make this awful plot work, but we refuse to respect them while we use them! Must be attractively angry at all times Tough, but not like, too tough? Throw in some whispy hair and a pretty braid, that’ll help WHY ARE YOU WALKING IN FRONT OF SOMEONE’S FIRING LANE JFC SAM
5:57 PM Oh hey Teal’c Thank god there’s a man here to lead us -_-
Tumblr media
5:58 PM Did I mention I hate everything about this episode? Because it is the fucking worst
@amaradangeli​, 5:59 PM Omg this is amazing. I feel like this should be tweeted. At Stargate officials.
@geneeste, 6:01 PM UUGHHH Jack and the Jaffa-ing UGGGHHHH Why Why Just Why
6:03 PM Fucking Carroll and Carren A curse upon their houses Multitudinous legos on their floors in the middle of the night Constant lukewarm milk A thing that rattles incessantly in their car that they can never find A SiriusXM membership they can never cancel This episode constantly playing in the background in every waiting room they ever visit with a sign that says “DO NOT TOUCH TV” so they are forever reminded of their ABYSMAL FAILURE AS WRITERS
@amaradangeli​, 6:11 PM hahaha
@geneeste​, 6:12 PM This brig scene is so bad and elevated only by Janet and Sam and the other ladies who clearly knew how terrible it was
Tumblr media
6:16 PM WHY DOES HER BEING A GOA’ULD QUEEN MEAN THAT WATER IS NO LONGER FUCKING WET
Tumblr media
6:18 PM Also THAT IS NOT HOW IMMUNE SYSTEMS WORK JESUS CHRIST However he may never be able to process food or poop again, so yeah, kinda a big deal This show. The lows are very, very low.
6:24 PM Oh hey Jack Thank god there’s a man here to lead us Is it over yet Please is it over yet Why Why does the water catch on fire from bullets Just what the fuck were these writers on when they wrote this fucking awful fucking episode
