I have excellent news. This painting is of (and itself appears in) a real episode of Stargate Atlantis.
Have yet to get around to anything beyond the originating and disconnected movie, though there has been a lot of talking it up in other posts lately.
Atlantis is top notch! Hits its stride early and stays pretty strong throughout. Lots of very familiar faces come and go. So much fun.
Thanks for the recommendation. Always a task, taking on a new multi-series universe, but then I know there will be a lull in Trek content soon enough.
I recommend starting with SG-1 though. It’s the original series, with Atlantis it goes a bit off the rails in my opinion. Still decently enjoyable to watch, but it feels like an attempt at rebooting the successful formula of sg-1, except without the relatability. Also SG-1 is more tongue-in-cheek, there are several episodes where they poke fun at themselves, and RDA is just being RDA anyway.
John Shepherd and Rodney McKay. What a team!
