Mitchell is ecstatic to be going through the gate for his 200th trip. However, when the gate experiences technical difficulties, the team is stuck with Martin Lloyd, who is supervising a fan-inspired movie version of "Wormhole X-Treme!", his cancelled TV series (wink wink). Anyway, while serving as Air Force technical consultants for the movie, the team (and the SGC) pitch their own ideas for how a stargate-inspired movie should look, and...

How is it noting a milestone by doing exactly the same as you did last time, with a plot line that wasn't especially entertaining the first time around? What's coming in episode 300? A computer game of Wormhole X-treme perhaps? A novel of it maybe?

Don't knock it until you've seen it. And I *loved* "Wormhole X-Treme!", both as an SG-1 fan and as a fan of the television industry. This should be the same kind of fun episode we haven't seen in , well, five years.

I loved "Wormhole X-Treme!" myself as well. It's like taking a break from a grueling job to make fun of it for a little while. And I'm sure the writers are smart enough to not simply do a rip-off of the previous story. After all, how similar was "Wormhole X-Treme!" to its predecessor, "Point of No Return"? Plus, hey, it's the return of Richard Dean Anderson for something more than just a cameo appearance!
You should wait until you actually see the episode before passing judgment, Zippy.

Teal'c and Carter as D'argo and Chiana? That settles it. If nobody hears from me ever again after this episode airs, it's because I died of laughter.

My only question is whether or not they got, or even COULD get, Ben and Claudia to reprise their roles. I'm willing to bet that they don't, with a crazy one-liner to that effect.
And whose idea is it for them to do The Wizard of Oz? On the Atlantis sets? And why is the Teal'c Woodsman so built?

Why shouldn't they do the Wizard of Oz? It's not like O'Neill didn't drop an Oz reference every other episode....
