Colonel Maybourne doesn't know

[@iffyAttorney]

You're a special Ops Colonel Jack.... Why do you always pretend to smell like roses. best line ever.

[@KS-xk2so]

Oh yeah.... Jack has seen and done some shit... fa show.

[@iffyAttorney]

I wish i left it with question mark..

[@50fable50]

The face he makes after 1:29 going along with the line. Such disgust you'd think roses smell like rancid farts to Maybourne.

[@iffyAttorney]

He was gonna 'nuke' the movie...

[@Rensune]

"I would never do that to a 2-star general" Maybourne should've said "Maybe not to an American one. But a Russian one?"

[@rhas356]

One of my favourite bad guys (redemption not withstanding) - just a good sign of a good actor!

[@Kenneth45]

Too bad he didn't appreciate the beer and mustard diet...

[@MrPibb23x]

I honestly don't even view him as a bad guy except for a couple episodes when he's actively working against the SGC. For the rest of the show he's pretty morally grey and works purely in his own interests.

He's the nessaicery evil. You need men that perform his function in any long lived empire.

[@ToIsleOfView]

Maybourne was the perfect bad guy for a global secret. This acting is outstanding and I think it's a product of great scripts and great directing. The story creators for SG1 are masters of their craft. 200+ episodes and only a couple of stinkers. This is a monumental achievement and stands miles above any other science fiction production. Thanks for sharing. Keep it up.

[@CanidRose]

My only issue with Stargate's writing was their habit of playing fast and loose with mythology when it wasn't really necessary. It's a minor thing, and honestly if you have to tweak the details a bit for the sake of storytelling, that's fine. There were only a few moments that made me roll my eyes ("Two types of gods, the tyrants and the culture-bearers" what the FUCK does that MEAN Daniel????) However, everything else is pretty much spot on. I adore this show, I grew up watching it and it's got a lot of nostalgia for me.

[@ToIsleOfView]

@@CanidRose I think the analogy for types of gods is builders and destroyers. The builders of the Stargates spread a culture of free use of the gate system and the parasite tyrants destroy and enslave other cultures.

[@CanidRose]

@@ToIsleOfView It was more the way he framed is as "Norse vs. Egyptian" that bothered me.

I love maybourne. He just gets better and better

[@zoidberg444]

RDA and Tom McBeath were always great on screen together.

[@Grubnar]

The first time I saw him on screen, I didn't think he would be anything special, but Tom McBeth gave a good performance. The writing is of course very important, but what an actor does with his character is what turns a good show into a great show!

[@thefurrybstard1964]

Tom McBeath played an excellent and eventually likeable bad guy as Harry Maybourne.

[@freemagicfun]

I love Maybourne. Any time I saw it was a Maybourne, Woolsey, or Ba'al episode - I knew it would be a good show! 😎

[@philip-op6de]

This was a really good episode and showed where Maybourne started to have a change of heart towards SG1

[@quitequiet5281]

So well written. “Just a patsy unwittingly maneuvered into position because he has the “right” mentality...” lol So well written. That’s right of reality...

[@SupremeCommander-u3k]

[@russell5078084]

Great series.

[@deliagroer2613]

Such a great actor. I went gym not looking him to liking him and enjoying seeing him appear

[@Turboy65]

Mayfield was exactly the kind of guy who'd do what had to be done no matter the consequences. Every government SHOULD have a few like him....but never fully trust him and always keep him on a short leash.

[@tUBEwATCHER890]

In the beginning, he was a jerk and a pain, but over time, he started to redeem himself

[@skoolzone]

This is why ball game heads can’t watch science-fiction. It’s not spaceships, blasting or weird monsters. It’s an intellectual dialogue that you have to actually follow and most people just get bored unless there’s a laser blast or a conniption with some sort of alien being.

[@jimparsons6803]

& Mayborn ends up being King, and saving the Earth, again. Interesting literary twist that the villain ain't all bad, especially if there are numerous wives in his balance. As it tuns out.

[@Kuki_]

And partially he helps save the Atlantis expedition too. Thanks to him they find the time travelling puddle jumper and then the ZPM from 5000 years ago that eventually gets shipped to Atlantis.

[@seand.g423]

Mike Cimerian far as I'm concerned, he's just twisted worse than a Goa'uld on a Yautja kill... _but_ that could just be me... doubt it, though.

[@PerryBowden]

He had a great character ark, and Tom played it perfectly.

[@amandacorbett4785]

Mike Cimerian at least he had a sense of humour! Kinsey was just a horses arse!

[@thehantavirus]

hes an amoral good guy, like the cia agents.

[@BlackDiamond2718]

He turned straight with more work with O'Neill and they worked well together.

[@Kamodomon]

Maybourne is such a dork. He's super capable, don't get me wrong, but everytime he says "my line of work" I just chuckle to myself about how it doesn't sound convincing coming out of him.

[@brentbarr498]

LOL.. I LOVE it!!!

[@IsleOfFeldspar]

I liked this character. Another snake; except without a smaller snake in his head.

[@danielboatright8887]

Ever since it aired Ive always thought Maybournes reaction to Hammonds grandkids being kidnapped should have been anger. Is he what, in the US military anyway, is refered to as a 'shitbag' ? Yes. But he was still in, and long enough to gain rank, going after a fellow officers kids is just low. Besides, they could have had a montage scene of the bad guys like the cast of a horror movie as Jack and Harry stalk them.

[@Caseytify]

He worked with O'Neill pretty hard to get that intel. Maybe he's just not the emotional type.
