Carl Binder wanted to do a story told from the POV of a red shirt, one of those ubiquitous no-names we lose over the course of an op who is mourned then quickly forgotten in the episode tag when the team is yukking it up in the cafeteria... 1/ #Stargate #StargateAtlantis #SGA

In this particular episode, Carl posits the possibility that this supposed red shirt aint so red after all and, rather than being killed in the line of duty, is captured. 2/ #Stargate #Atlantis #StargateAtlantis #SG1

Of course, Stargate teams have a standing “No man left behind” policy and it isn’t long before Sheppard and co. mount a rescue op…3/end #Stargate #Atlantis #StargateAtlantis #SGA

Always loved the McKay/Sheppard TOS inside joke references

Wait?? Youse guys had red shirts too? Did Star Fleet authorize this?? Whose books are the casualties on? I SENSE CHICANERY CAPTAIN‼️

Like the SGA episode Whispers, it's nice to see things from the perspective of other team mates. I also enjoyed SG1 "The Other Guys" - but in that ep the scientists saved SG1 (to some extent)

Babylon 5 did something similar with maintenance workers during a battle. It was fun, a different perspective.

Still waiting for the “Sheppard DOA” explanation 😂

If only we could have gotten our Season Six. Still makes me sad.

This one I would’ve liked to see. I’ve always felt bad for the unknown, red-shirt-wearing members of a StarTrek landing party.😵 SciFi has a variety of ways of presenting them, but the idea is always the same: they’re the expendables. It’d be nice to see that notion challenged.😏
