We believe we as fans deserve to have our voices heard.  This is a forum to grieve for the loss of Daniel from Stargate SG-1, to discuss our hopes and fears for the future of the series, to offer messages of support for Michael Shanks and to ask our questions of The Powers That Be.

Obsessed? Us?

The lighter side of life as the average, everyday ho-hum Stargate fan


And The Nominations Are...(Spoilers for All of S4)

NB: These nominations have been painstakingly compiled by Ankh and Lori, who almost certainly should have been doing something more sensible at the time. If it should appear to the reader that Daniel gets mentioned more than anyone else this is due to a fault in your reception as we are well known for our rigorous objectivity and impartiality.

We also had a number of nominations written out in readiness which we didn't get to use owing to the show's inexplicable failure to provide the right content for the episodes such as:
