    Wormhole Extreme would be an awesome show, I’d probably binge an entire season if it was available, even if it was only half as fun as the tiny tidbits we got.
    I really loved how the dead bodies just disappeared when shot because it’s cheaper, which in fact they sometimes do in Stargate. That kind of making fun of Star Gate’s own concepts in Wormhole Extreme was just brilliant and super funny.

      I especially loved the one when the actor asks why she doesn’t drop through the floor when she is “out of phase”.

        Floors are multi-phasic. Everyone knows that. Walls on the other hand can be either pass though or not depending on if you’re a goodie or baddie.

        There was a cartoon that had a villian with a phasing gizmo. He got stuck out of phase and went down to the earth’s core…

      Being a self referential in joke makes the odds of a fill season being entertaining on its own unlikely, but I would be willing to give it a shot.

      The season has to be about them working with the government to create a TV show called “Portals: Universe” that would act as deniability for the Wormhole program.

    I guess it’s an unpopular opinion but I didn’t like Wormhole Extreme at all. It’s one of the only episodes I take great delight in skipping during rewatches.
