A Hundred Days

Well developed episode, acting is good from the whole cast and the resolution feels reasonably authentic. The CGI effects worked well and costuming fitting.

This SG1 is one of the series' best although many fans disagree due to O'Neil's straying from love for Carter to another woman. From the opening to the end, this SG1 delivers on character, on story, on directorial excellence, on shear beauty and not mention very nice special effects and superior use of location.

And did I mention the music. Memorable and extremely well done to set the mood.

An O'Neill tour-de-force by Richard Dean Anderson with strong work by Tapping, Judge and Davis. The off-world love interest by Michelle Greene is probably her best career effort - believable, sensitive and beautifully played. Supporting guest cast are excellent.

The SG-1 is negotiating Naquadah mining operation in Eudora with their leader Laira. She brings the team to see the Fire Rain, a meteor shower that occasionally happens. Daniel and Sam foresee a danger since the planet orbit is close to the meteor shower. When a big meteor hits the ground in a near miss, Daniel and Sam verify and realize that meteors will probably crash on the planet. O'Neill offers to evacuate the inhabitants through the Stargate; however, one of them convinces a group of locals to stay in Eudora. Laira notes that her son is missing and Jack decides to help her to seek her son out. They find him in a cave seeking shelter with a friend and when the group is ready to go, the Stargate is hit by a meteor. Sam discovers that Naquadah has melted down burying the Stargate that can still be activated. Meanwhile Jack is stranded in the planet and falls in love and has a love affair with the widow Laira. After many days, Teal'c risks his life expecting to find a way out of the cave to the surface of the planet to look for Jack. What will happen to Teal'c and Jack?

"A Hundred Days" is a romantic and heartbreaking episode of "Stargate SG-1". The romance between Jack and Laira shows a great chemistry and the conclusion is sad, as most stories of impossible or unattained love. Samantha clearly demonstrates that has feelings for Jack. My vote is eight.
