This episode is by far my favourite, but man does it hit me hard, loosing my intelligence like that is one of my worst fears, plus David Hewlett knocks it out the park.
I watched my father die from grade 4 Glioblastoma 🧠 cancer over 12 months. Pretty much this episode 🥺.
sounds shit
Right in the feels.
I usually skip it because it was so powerful. This one and Heros from OG Stargate.
Also, same. Losing mental faculties, or even control of my body, is my nightmare (sometimes literally, sleep paralysis club member)
Heroes is powerful, but SG1 equivalent to this one is Lifeboat for me - the one where Daniel gets several conciousnesses downloaded into his mind. The way he plays the little kid always has me in tears
Ah i forgot about that one! Adults playing scared little kids always hits me for some reason.
Doctor who had a similar thing; bad guy takes over old woman when she was a girl. Doctor wins, bad guy flees, all that’s left is the mind of the little girl bad guy took over.
80ish year old lady, sitting on the floor crying. “I can’t find my mother”
Wait? You guys have intelligence?
Oh man, I just watched this for the first time last week, and I’ve not been in a good mental/emotional state and this episode about made me lose it 😭
This is my favorite too. And I just love Rodney anyway
