[quote=@Sergeant] I do believe Hulu at least has a few seasons. Your tables are safe... for the moment. They don't have the 1994 movie, which is actually the start of the whole thing. So you might want to think about watching that too. [/quote] I gleaned a bit of the movie from episode 1. Egyptian mythology, reference to cartouches which were symbols Egyptians put at the front and last of names of people, places, and things to protect them from evil magic, Mark Jackson obviously stayed behind - presumably for one other mission-related reason (like guarding the clear codex of places so that he could monitor its use and protect the rest of the galaxy from humanity coming through to conquer other worlds - if not solely due to falling in love with the woman who ended up getting captured upon the earthlings' return. Also, that snake armor is something I do not remember, but boy, it makes way more sense as a snake. At first glance, I thought they were supposed to be jackals and the guy in the middle was either Osiris or Anubis, not Ra or Apophis. Little odd though how they tried to make Apophis have a human form, since - unlike Ra - Apophis is supposed to be so chaotic that he HAS no physical form. Perhaps they'll surprise me on that one and Mr. Big Red Snaky really will show up in that form in the Duat (ooooh! wondering if SG1 explains the Egyptian concept of the Duat levels at all in a biological/astronomical way). The Duat river myth could potentially just have been their explanation for SG travel! :p Although the Egyptian myth of sleeping with a headrest to keep the ba part of the soul anchored to the body might not have any scientific grounds...unfortunately.
