Précis
A mysterious ship is hurtling toward Earth and the key to stopping it lies with Marty, the alien who is producing a new sci-fi TV series called "Wormhole X-Treme!" But due to his amnesia, Marty has forgotten not only how to stop the ship…but also that he lived through the "Wormhole" experience himself.

MGM Official Summary
A ship heading for Earth is linked to the pod found through the Alien Marty (4.11 "Point of No Return"). Investigating what he knows, SG-1 find that Marty has been become a consultant on a sci-fi series called Wormhole X-treme!, with a plot line uncannily like the Stargate program. Yet Marty has no memory of their past relationship or of the real SGC.
SciFi.com Official Summary
Martin Lloyd is working in television, as the producer of a new series. The show is called Wormhole X-treme, and it almost perfectly mirrors the Stargate program and the SGC. Martin is back on his medication and cannot remember his own alien nature, but apparently his subconscious does—that's how he developed and sold the show concept. The Air Force has decided to let the show develop, since it gives them plausible deniability on the SGC. Unfortunately, the Kepler Space Probe detects an incoming vessel whose energy signature matches that of Martin's escape pod. Colonel Jack O'Neill is assigned to the TV series as a "technical advisor," but his real job is to keep an eye on Martin, and to find out why his ship is returning to Earth.
This is the 100th episode of Stargate SG-1.
