Stargate SG-1/Funny: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* At DragonCon '06, a question is popped "If you could play any other role on Stargate who would you be?"

** Made even better by another of the cast having a Spit-Take in the background as he says it.

*** And apparently his character agrees, because when he cameos in season 8 he takes the chair with him when he leaves.

*** Daniel also agrees;

'''Daniel:''' (Sitting in Hammond's chair) Oh, I have to tell you, I like this scenario way better than the last one. Have you tried this chair? This is like…really comfortable. (Pounds the chair's arm to prove it) }}

* The episode where the Ori are using preparing to use a stargate to open a blackhole and power a supergate. The team brings through the "gate-buster" super nuke, to find a Prior standing there, praying aloud.

'''Mitchell:''' ...sir, you are aware that you are within a thousand kilometers of this device? }}

* "Window of Opportunity," specifically the "This is a time loop so you can get away with anything" montage ("In the middle of my ''backswing''?!"). And when Colonel O'Neill is explaining to Teal'c what the phrase "lose it" means.

* And also:

'''Teal'c''': You have said that on many occasions. Perhaps next time I will not be so forgiving. }}

*** And then one of the first things he does in the "This is a time loop so you can get away with anything" montage is interrupt the [[Red Shirt]]'s apology by shutting the door on ''him''.

** And the moment Daniel points out to them that they could get away with anything, they immediately get up and walk out of the room. [[Oh Crap|Daniel's face]] when he [[My God, What Have I Done?|realizes what he's just done]] is priceless.

* Also, Daniel Jackson in the episode "The Sentinel".

'''Daniel''': ''(holds up a knife)'' "Yeah, which end do the bullets go in again?" }}

** From the above mentioned "Window of Opportunity"

Jack O'Neill: Okay... Bad example. }}

* Daniel asking about Tollan communication technology:

'''Omoc''': (smiles indulgently) "...no." }}

* Many of the conversations between O'Neill and the various [[Large Ham|Goa'uld]] count as this

'''O'Neill''': "Baal, you know me. Of course I dare mock you." }}

* Much of "The Other Guys", especially O'Neill's reaction to Felger & Coombs' "rescue".

'''O'Neill''': ''(staring in disbelief)'' "''Look'' everybody, he brought ''Coombs'' with him!" }}

** Felger and Coombs arguing with each other:

'''Coombs''': "You want me to ''shoot'' you?" }}

** And this exchange after Herak torures O'Neill.

'''O'Neill''': ''(lying on the floor, in pain) ''"You ended that sentence with a preposition. Bastard!" }}

** When Felger and Coombs arrive aboard a Goa'uld ring platform, Felger immediately raises his gun, ducks his head, ''covers his eyes with his other arm,'' then slowly turns in a circle while blindly emptying his gun at absolutely nothing.

** Daniel and Vala arguing with each other while she's in Prometheus's brig.

** In that same episode is this exchange:

'''Daniel''': ''(stuns her)'' }}

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_jFSSrtypw One episode has the group in O'Neill's house drinking beer.] While Daniel balances an orange on his beer bottle, Jack explains how the Simpsons are a perfect analogy to the SGC (Burns as Goa'uld). When Teal'c responds skeptically...

'''O'Neill''': Okay, no more beer for you. }}

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksbGZl9dggY Window of Opportunity]. I need say no more.

** Don't forget [[The Straight Man|Teal'c]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka6tvlewO3c telling a joke] in "Seth".

* From "The Other Side"

'''Teal'c:''' I am unsure. He is concealing it. }}

* What about Sam pointing out that they can probably never go public with what they discover going through the 'gate?

'''Teal'c''': What is an Oprah? }}

* More Teal'c:

'''Teal'c''': ''(Deadpan)'' That would make all of us. }}

* The scene where Jonas Quinn accidentally convinces Teal'c that he wants to take over the world. "No. No conspiracy. I promise." Almost immediately followed by him reaching into his jacket, very ominously, and pulling out... a banana. It's ''Jonas.''

* [[The Russians Are Coming|"The Russians are coming."]]

* When Daniel has resigned in ''Forever in a Day'', he walks into Hammond's office to hear Jack complaining about his replacement.

'''Daniel''': Deja vu. }}

* Jack and Teal'c trading bodies in "Holiday".

* "What's that got to do with filming a plant?!"

* Most of "1969", with a special mention to Daniel's response to being asked (in Russian) if he's a Soviet spy. He answers "no" - in Russian. Then there's the team returning at the end dressed for the '60s. Hammond's expression was priceless.

** The fact that Chakka, Daniel's Unas friend, gives him an incredulous "What the hell are you doing?" look as he does this never fails to elicit laughter.

* Daniel trying to convince Jack that he's subconsciously leading them to the lost city.

'''Jack''': Following, you, still, not! }}

** When Daniel explains his reasoning Carter remains skeptical because while Jack may well be filling in crossword clues with Ancient stargate adresses, he also answered "celestial body" with 'Uma Thurman'. Ah, Jack.

* Or how about the time when Daniel was talking about how a robot girl's "attention wanders, it's like she has the mind of a child," while Jack is making faces through a magnifying glass in the background.

* Talking about Anubis' latest plan to be evil:

** Then, later on, "Yeah, hey, Anubis, this is your agent. You're playing it ''way'' over the top, could you get serious, please?"

* There's a scene in "Ripple Effect" where Asgard scientist Kvasir expounds upon the merits of courage in SG-1's upcoming mission... followed by an abrupt "Good luck" and beaming off the bridge. Daniel comments, "[[Actor Allusion|I miss Thor.]]"

* Vala finding the treasure in "Avalon". In fact, many of Vala's scenes in that episode. "I like your outfit." "Isn't this where I beat you up?" "I haven't been this disappointed since Daniel and I had sex!"

* Daniel in "Bad Guys" - they're supposed to be holding people hostage, and Daniel's pretending to be the leader.

'''Daniel''': Why? We're not gonna hurt them. (Sees Teal'c staring at him) ...Unless you get cute! In which case there's gonna be, uh, killing and ... whatnot. (Teal'c rolls his eyes) }}

** Followed by Daniel losing his cool when two female hostages start fighting over one sleeping with the other's guy. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVbICGqN1os 'Tis hilarious.] Daniel's attitude in that episode in general is just hilarious.

** Teal'c zats a politician contemplating escape, then has this to say to the others:

* A masculine Goa'uld super-soldier hitting on Daniel. It turns out to be Vala, but for that minute when Daniel didn't know that, [[Fiona|this troper]] couldn't stop laughing.

'''Daniel''': [coughs]...What?... Hey, you know, big guy, I'm flattered, really I am, it's just that, uh, you're not my type. And I'm more than a little disturbed that I might be yours. }}

*** The fight between Daniel and Vala is hilarious as well.

* In "The Quest, Pt 2", when SG-1 (plus a few others) are being chased by a dragon, which Daniel believes can be defeated by "knowing its secret name."

'''Daniel''': ''(Annoyed)'' Would you just give me a minute? }}

** Then Mitchell hatches a plan to kill the dragon by trying to throw a block of C-4 under it, claming "that's where it's weakest," as if he's an expert on ''dragons''.

** Follow that up with Teal'c making the toss, and the dragon catching and swallowing the C-4 instead. When it explodes inside the dragon, apparently causing nothing more than an urpy tummy, Teal'c is left standing dumbstruck in front of it, eyes slightly wide and visibly gulping. (And if you've watched him for the nine and a half years prior, that sight would be hysterical).

* The scene where SG-13 walks through the Stargate onto yet another foresty planet.

'''Col. Dixon''': Bosworth's disqualified for being a smart ass. I'll go with two-headed aliens. }}

** It didn't hurt having Col. Dixon played by [[Adam Baldwin]].

** Followed by the immortal line:

'''Bosworth''': What, again? }}

 

* Future First Prime to Anubis Herak and O'Neill give us this immortal exchange.

'''O'Neill''': You ended that sentence in a preposition! Bastard! }}

* When General Hammond tells Jack that they are going to put a Russian officer on SG-1:

'''Jack:''' And that I will, Sir. But I'm pretty sure I'm still gonna say...bite me. }}

* In "Point of No Return" Teal'c greatly enjoys the vibrating bed.

Jack: "[[The Untwist|You heard me! I said kree!]]" }}

** Daniel attempts improvisation again in ''Prometheous Unbound'', trying to pass himself off as a bounty hunter.

* From "1969":

'''Daniel:''' He just asked if we were Soviet sp-... oh. }}

* Teal'c again, when talking to Tanith, a known Goa'uld spy among the Tok'ra:

'''Teal'c''': (matter-of-factly) "The Tok'ra did not wish Apophis to be informed." }}

* O'Neill after hearing about an attack planned by Anubis.

* O'Neill and a nomad elder having a pithy saying competition:

'''O'Neill''': [[Shaggy Frog Story|It has to do with flocking. And... togetherness... and... to be honest, I'm not sure of the particulars myself.]] }}

* When one of the team has to pose as a drug dealer, Mitchell immediately discounts the others as credible actors for this role, including Carter:

'''Carter:''' Hey! }}

** This exchange is now available as a YTMND [http://cartermarypoppins.ytmnd.com/ here].

* Carter excitedly activates an experimental energy reactor... which causes a complete shutdown of the base's primary power systems.

* Teal'c explains Jaffa divorce customs.

'''Teal'c''': "A weapon is required." }}

* Daniel briefing Weir prior to negotiating a treaty with the System Lords:

'''Weir:''' See, why should I be nervous? Sounds like an average day at the [[Wretched Hive|United Nations]]. }}

* I love that one frozen Replicator from "Reckoning" that falls down when {{spoiler|Daniel stops them all.}} THAT WAS PRICELESS!

* Teal'c accidentally attending "Vagina Monologues". The sheer unexpectedness of scene, and the look on Teal'c's face, was just hilarious.

* From the Season 6 episode ''Unnatural Selection'':

'''O'Neill''': Why not? }}

* From "Crystal Skull":

'''Teal'c, without changing expression''': Doctor Fraiser is usually correct in such matters. }}

* O'Neill getting an "administrative assistant" early into his job as Commander of the SGC.

'''Walter''': Yes, sir. }}

* At the end of ''Evolution'': Daniel's been shot in the leg and is leaning on a crutch. They're discussing the sarcophagus-like artifact that just made one baddie nuts and reanimated the other's dead corpse, but is apparently off now. Knowing what Daniel knows about sarcophagus addiction, it's understandable how he reacts:

''Daniel hops two steps to the side just to get a little farther away.'' }}

* The [[Hypocritical Humor]] example on the main page mentions the Chinese ambassador in "Disclosure" saying that China does not believe in keeping secrets from its people. The look Russian Air Force Colonel Chekov gives him is ''priceless'', especially when you consider that Chekov grew up in the Soviet era.

* The teaser of "Avenger 2.0" is possibly the [[Crowning Moment of Funny]] for season seven. Jay Felger attempts to demonstrate a beam weapon he developed. It starts to charge up, everybody gets expectant looks, then huge showers of sparks fly from it. Power goes out all over the base. Felger basically looks at General Hammond and says that's not supposed to happen. This troper spent the entirety of the credits sequence howling with laughter.

* From "Watergate":

'''Daniel:''' ... Sorry. [[Lampshade Hanging|I think I've been hanging around]] [[Deadpan Snarker|Jack O'Neill too much.]] }}

** The [[Brick Joke]] later on. Markova says that either there's something wrong, or the gauges are reading wrong. Daniel responds, "But it's Swiss!"

* In an early episode, during a medical emergency, Dr. Frasier suddenly begins issuing orders all over the place, despite Hammond being in the room:

'''O'Neill''': "Huh..." }}

* Daniel's complete nonchalance at hearing that {{spoiler|his alternate self is dead in Mobius}}.

'''Daniel''': "Oh. Good reason." }}

* "Cold Lazarus":

'''Daniel''': ''[[Blatant Lies|Absolutely.]]'' }}

* A classic moment from Jack during "The Gamekeeper" comes up while the titular Keeper is expositing about the nature of the virtual world and the "poisoned" outer world. As he's talking, Jack is shown walking up to one of the virtual mind standing around in their black cloaks and veils and just...poking him in the shoulder, making him sway slightly. There's something ridiculously funny about the combination of curiosity and flippancy summed up in that single gesture.

* "Bane":

** What makes it even better is that Hammond is clearly giving serious thought to granting that request, too!

* "Fragile Balance":

'''O'Neill''': What, you've got ''sanctioned'' ones? }}

----

This gem from "The Serpent's Lair"

'''Jack''': Well, that's a bad plan.
