Season 3, Episode 22 - Nemesis
Original Air Date: March 10, 2000

O'Neill is suddenly transported aboard Thor's ship, where he begins to hear a strange sound and moments later is faced with hundreds of menacing looking metallic bugs. He learns that these bugs are called replicators and are artificial organisms that have overtaken the ship and directed it toward Earth. (Part 1 of 2).

ok hands up who thinks this was a damn good episode?-well i do this was really cool it had the relicators and it was one episode that the cast and crew can turn around and go ok this will always remain one of the best stargate episodes

The replicators were very cool indeed. Plus I liked Sam's hair for this one. I would say this cliffhanger beats the one for season 1 hands down. The replicators are far worse than the Goa'uld.

Like her hair in this episode? or like her hair in the present, like season 6?

i like the present hair, but it is generally good all around, exexpt when it is short.

Ya, it isn't too good when its too short. But when her hair is too long and straight, it isn't all that great either.

amanda tapping is my role model ive had my haior cut like hers now since stargate started and do u know when they had that alternative reality sam i even had extensions.
is that dedication or what

Yuppers. Its nice to know that you like Sam. I like Sam Don't we all like her? Her character is great, her acting is great, and she is hot

i cant say shes hot(im female) but i can say shes very buetiful and i can say if i was a bloke id have a massive crush on her i wreckon they should declare her the worlds most gorgous woman.
and i so agree she has the best acting very very talented lady.

And she lives in Canada

Her hair in Small Victories was the best I think. But she didn't get enough screen time with it.

wow. i think it's an extremely interesting topic about the way sam does her hair. but i think the way a shotgun can blow away a replicator is more interesting to the guys.

The replicators remind me on lego. And i like Sams hair at the start of season 4 and the end of season 3.


And i was looking at a site and it said that sam and jack MIGHT be going fishing in season 7

What site might that be?, i thought this was a damn good episode, good action, and good to see the Asgard(they're my favourite Earth Allies).

I liked the way they stole the gate! The look on Hammonds face was priceless. I also liked the fact that the first thing they did when they got the gate open was to protect the non-combatant by sending Thor's pod through.

I'm quite sure it was a S.P.A.S. 12, since it looked and sounded like the S.P.A.S. 12s in Vice City(which basically won me the game BTW). And they didn't have P90s in the Series till after that point in time, I'm guessing they were using MP5s.

Just how great do the Asgard think our potential is? I mean, Thor didn't have a clue as to how to stop them, but he thought that the Tauri might be able to figure it out?

I never really understood why Thor brought his ship to Earth if he couldn't figure out how to get rid of the Replicators. I mean, the Asgard are always saying they have "superior intellect", so why did they think we could figure it out? I dunno. I think it was a dumb idea in the first place because that puts our entire planet at risk of the Replicators. They could have wiped us all out! They're supposed to protect us from that...I can't wait to see Small Victories so I can see how it ends!

possible spoiler for those of you who haven't seen what happens to Thor:

Thor lives of course! He has to, cause i've seen him in Season 5

He didn't. The replicators found the location of Earth in the ship's computer and brought it. Thor stayed on the ship (after evacuating the crew) in the hope of destroying the ship before it got there. If you'll remember, Thor said in his recorded message that if O'Neill saw that message that Thor had failed and probably condemned O'Neill to death.

to go through some points mentioned-

sams hair- i like it in the early part of season four( a bob style cut?)

replicators/goa'ulds(sp)- the replicators win out right after all they were one of the many factors that brought the end of Apothis( who i kinda thought was the coolest bad guy chatacter so far)

shippy momments- did you see the bit when they were in the briefing roon and he was telling tham not to come up the slight momment between o'neill and carter...arrr!

No I didn't catch that part. I'll have to watch the tape again...hahaha sounds funny though!
