Yeah, clip show episodes suck. And it sucks that there are so many in Stargate. But which one sucked the least?

SG-1

  1. Politics
    • S1E21
    • After experiencing a Goa’uld invasion in an alternate reality, Dr. Daniel Jackson attempts to warn Stargate Command of the possibility of it happening in this reality. The government, however, has other plans as Senator Robert Kinsey evaluates the dangers of the Stargate Program.
  2. Out of Mind
    • S2E22
    • Colonel Jack O’Neill is awakened from stasis in Stargate Command but finds out he is in the year 2077 and that the rest of his team, and everyone he knew, died. However, he has suspicions that the “SGC personnel” is hiding something from him, which he later finds out is a planned Goa’uld invasion of the SGC and Earth.
  3. Disclosure
    • S6E17
    • At a United Nations Security Council briefing, the Ambassadors of the United Kingdom, France and China are stunned when they learn of the Stargate Program, while Senator Robert Kinsey crashes the meeting, attempting yet again to take control of the program.
  4. Inauguration
    • S7E20
    • The newly inaugurated President of the United States, Henry Hayes, is briefed on the Stargate Program by his Vice President, Robert Kinsey. Kinsey once again attempts to install his own people at Stargate Command with the help of Agent Richard Woolsey. When Woolsey discovers Kinsey’s true intentions, he must decide where his true loyalties lie.
  5. Citizen Joe
    • S8E15
    • Joe Spencer, a barber from Indiana buys a mysterious stone in a garage sale seven years ago, and ever since then, has received several visions concerning SG-1 and their missions to save the world.

Atlantis

  1. Letters from Pegasus
    • S1E17
    • In the wake of discovering a fleet of three Hive Ships zeroing on Atlantis, Dr. Rodney McKay manages to give the Stargate enough power to dial Earth for one second, which is more than enough time to send compressed data, including the team members’ messages to their families.
  2. Inquisition
    • S5E13
    • Lt. Colonel John Sheppard’s team is invited by the Coalition of Planets in order to form an alliance. However, the team is misled and is forced to stand trial, for their alleged crimes against the Pegasus galaxy. Their best chance of freedom is the experience of Richard Woolsey.

    Disclosure is the best one. It’s a good recap for those who have forgotten key aspects of the last 6 years of the show and introduces the foundation of the international committee what allows Atlantis to take place.

    Disclosure, purely due to it having Thor putting Kingsley in his place.

    Citizen Joe is a very close second.

    I think Citizen Joe was the most fun, and probably had the least number of reused clips compared to the other clip show episodes.
