Stargate SG-1 - Invisible O'Neill

One of my favourite scenes.

I remember seeing a behind-the-scenes feature in this. Apparently, they weren’t sure if Richard Dean Anderson would be available for more than the voiceover. As it turned out, he was willing and able. In the scene with Teal’c and Jack, that is ACTUALLY RDA himself in greenscreen suit carrying the cup and playing his role.

I love that RDA used his own dog, Zoe, in the truck. She previously appeared as Kinsey's dog.

"sir? are you there?"
"nope"

[thebel]

"Teal'c: I assume I am staring at you stoically.
O'Neill: Not buying it, eh?
Teal'c: No. You are most transparent, O'Neill.
O'Neill: Oh, I get it. Good one.
Teal'c: I can see right through you.
O'Neill: Don't push it."

Haha

I love how this was set up as a clip show but it was all new material.


I also appreciated that when O'Neill showed up in person, Vala said, "Nobody'll see _that_ coming." Mitchell responds, "Nope, there'll be spoilers, " and Carter says, "Are you kidding? It'll be in the commercial, " — which it _was._

[anyonebutyoufan]

"Anyone want to around and see if you can fine him?" Daniel is so used to it he doesn't even care anymore! xD

[zackaryyoussef]

The best bit is that the whole sketch is about how Richard Dean Anderson wasn't in episodes as much as he used to, however when they shot this, the only person available to wear the green morph suit for special effects was RDA himself :P

[luscus]

NO ONE but Richard Dean Anderson could have played the role of Jack O'Neill. He was perfect.

[lazyperfectionist]

"You are most transparent, O'Neil."
"Oh! I _get_ it!"
"I can see right through you."
🤣🤣🤣 Teal'c! Master of deadpan humor!

[Zamolxes]

"Sir ... are you there ? "
<long pause>
"Nope !"

[jonroux]

That look on Sam's face and head shake when Jack said, "hand signals. I'm waving you over" was hilarious. 🤣

[jder]

I generally want my scifi to be serious, but episodes like this just make me break that rule wide open. I can't help but love these kinds of fun loving episodes, yeah LOL !

[jerobriggs]

Carter: Sir, are you there?... O'Neill: Nope.

[potterfandf]

I wish that they made an entire episode for this scene!

[taylorsurfer]

"And so by translating this tablet, we should be able to determine the most important thing in the universe."  What a statement! haha

[penguinman]

I love how in the later season the show completely stopped taking itself seriously. And it actually worked.

[charlesmarquez]

You know what would have been a riot, if when the lights came back on O'Neill was there visible but the team was invisible.

[JamesMichaelDoyle]

"nope"

jesus that cracked me up.

[leonightingale]

that was really funny, i loved the bit where sam said "sir are you there" when she was about to get out of the shower and he just said "nope"

[Avallachgrey]

"Hello!! Hand signals! I'm waving you over."
