Ten years later, in the spin-off series Stargate: Atlantis, the Atlantis team encounter a similar crystal life-form in "Doppelganger". During that episode, Carter makes a reference to the events of this episode.

As Colonel Jack O'Neill and Crystal-Charlie leave the hospital (at 40:00), the musical motif from Independence Day that played in the previous episode "The First Commandment" plays again.

When the crystal takes the form of Captain Samantha Carter, she says "Holy Hannah", a line which her father Jacob Carter would go on to use regularly.

This episode takes place several months after the events of "Children of the Gods". Security footage of O'Neill in his holding room shows some of the events of the episode taking place on May 9th.

For some reason, this is my favorite episode from the entire show, and I've watched it all. I wish Jack's wife appeared more in these TV series.
