This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss Carter’s impatience and Daniel’s obsession with finding Shar’e and Skaara.

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the classic military science fiction series Stargate SG-1, and our listener feedback.
This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the fascinating dynamic that exists when Captain Carter works with Dr. Frazier to solve a problem that ultimately saves not only the SG-1 team but humanity as well. General Hammond continues to make the difficult calls and his willingness to do so even in the face of concerted opposition makes his character that much more credible. And it’s impossible to ignore guest star Bobbie Phillips who Dave remembers from her role in The X-Files as Dr. Bambi.
In our What We're Watching segment, Dave continues with the Danish political drama Borgen and finally figures out why one of the characters looks so darned familiar. Wayne lays it out there that if you’re not watching The Mandalorian, then you should.
