I've been on a kick lately, looking at all the webisode/shorts to some of my favorite TV shows. It was quite common 10-15 years ago, to add this minisodes to a succesful TV show.
Typically, they are low budget and tend to be a waste of time, but I decided to give them a try.
Stargate is one of my favorite shows. It's something I know I'll watch time and time again because it's that good. SGU was the weakest spin-off, true but there were some things I did enjoy from the series.
KINO is mainly centered around Eli and his drones (the kino) which follow him around recording everything. Other stars make guest appearances here and there but mostly it's small vignettes that are either comedic moments or small tie ins to episodes, recently shown.
Overall it's not very good, though the episode dealing with one of my favorite episodes in the series was pretty good. It's when the group discovers footage of them all dying in the future and are trying to find a way to avoid that from happening....yet at the end of the episode, they all end up dying again.
It was never mentioned how they resolved it, but they eventually did because the next episode shows them on another adventure. So the KINO episode jokes about this by letting viewers know it took several tries before they were able to change their fates and move on.
I enjoyed that episode.
Other than that, this is skippable, even for the more dedicated Stargate fans.
