It looks like Buffy meets Witchblade.
Sure, neither of them are on the air anymore, but that's no excuse.

I thought it looked like cheesie fun.
What I want to know is why SGC didn't destroy the poison if they weren't going to use it, rather than just leave it for the unethical?
They said they'd only use it for "defense"--presumably in case of a full-scale invasion of Earth.
why SGC didn't destroy the poison if they weren't going to use it
Here's a question. Where was the poison and how much of it was there? If it was at Area 51, how did the Trust get it out of there, and if they beamed it up to the ship, why was there any of it in that warehouse?
Would the SGC really keep enough of the stuff on hand to kill millions of Jaffa? (Side note: disposing of unused chemical weapons is very difficult, costly, and dangerous. It's a good idea not to make more than you're pretty damned sure you're gonna need.)
I really didn't like Jack's uncertainty there at the end, although he didn't have the information he needed about the Trust -- no, wait, that's not true. Daniel had seen the chemical weapons at the warehouse. So he did know, or at least suspect, what they were doing with the gate and the poison. That makes it even worse, really.
I can't say it's entirely out of character, but. Hmmm.

Well, it's not a chemical weapon that can harm anyone currently on Earth, right? So they could just pop the seal.

I kinda doubt they tested it for its effects on wildlife and flora, though. Or to see if it has long-term impacts on air or water quality.
Just because it doesn't kill human beings immediately doesn't make it nonhazardous to every other Earth-based organism.

They could just shove it through the gate to a world that's already a mess, like the original Tollan homeworld. Easy peasy.
What?
Hell, they have ships that can fly to other planets in the solar system, don't they? I doubt Mercury has much of an ecosystem to endanger.
Or, you know... the sun. Doesn't even have to be ours either.
Well, to be fair, they could dispose of all hazardous waste that way. But it would be kind of expensive...
