Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

No, he was Gerak, the first prime of a not-screen-important Goa'uld before the Jaffa won their freedom, then became a member of the Jaffa Council that was trying to build a government.
He ultimately betrayed everyone to the Ori when he converted to origin.. but betrayed the Ori at the last minute to use his new Pryor powers to cure the ori plague on earth, which resulted in him burning to death since the Ori dont like their powers being used for any reason but furthering their goals.
I watched and rewatched stargate abit
I've watched it through twice but I only have a trace of a memory of this. Maybe because it came so late in the show?
He was only in like.. half a dozen episodes, but it was louis gossett jr so he left an impression for the small amount of screen time he had. I think it was the last or second to last season of SG1, so maybe you didnt watch that far?
I wouldnt blame you if you didnt. Show kept being told it was its final season, then ratings were too good so execs demanded more seasons, that it fell into the power creep hole when they dealt with the big bad in the finale, in what ended up not being the finale.
No, I did. I watched the whole thing twice. It was just a long time ago.
And I enjoyed the Ori story arc to be honest. It was an obvious extension of the whole criticism of religion the show had pushed.
