So, I’ve been asking some Stargate-related questions over on X. Would love to know what you think…
What was your least favorite season of Stargate: SG-1 and why?
I received numerous nteresting responses. I expected to see seasons 1 and 2 given the fact that it was in the early goings and, like most shows, SG-1 was finding its creative footing. I expected to see season 6 given Daniel Jackson’s departure. I also expected to see seasons 9 and 10 given it was a departure from the longstanding goa’uld mythology. Season 8 was a bit of a surprise but, in hindsight, I get it now given that fans felt Jack’s absence.
Okay, so what was your FAVORITE season of Stargate: SG-1?
More great responses. It’s always interesting to hear the specifics of why certain seasons stand out to viewers. In my case, my favorite remains my first season on the show, season 4, simply because I’m fond of so many of the episodes we produced that year: Upgrades, Point of No Return, The Curse, 2010, fan favorite Window of Opportunity, and the first of our many season finales, Exodus, which saw us blow up a sun. Not many jobs let you do that nowadays.
What was your favorite Stargate season finale?
Another round of great and varied takes here. I tend to be partial to those season finales that put our heroes in grave danger in myriad ways. In that respect, for me it’s hard to beat SG-1’s Camelot or SGA’s Siege II. For pure story, however, I do love Atlantis’s The Last Man (My writing partner, Paul Mullie, did the heavy lifting on that one). But for the one that hits the hardest, I would choose SGU’s Gauntlet.
So here’s a question I have yet to ask over there…
If you could swap out a member of SG-1 for a member of the Atlantis expedition (and vice-versa) who would they be and why?
