Yes...it seems that they've been big on possession, witchcraft, aliens, and the like lately. Desperate for a little whiz-bang I guess...tho it's still the same ol' melodramatic, let's-stretch-one-episode-into-twelve routine.

Awesome! I guess I'll have to give the show another half star...or half thumb...or whatever.

Maybe 'Soap-Opera' is the wrong term for comparison. Personally I think we just all got sucked into the 'Cliffhanger' effect. Where we just got to know what happens in the next episode. Even though each episode is not directly linked like a true cliffhanger, our love for the characters gives it the same feeling.

hmmm, "Just one more episode,.." "Just one more turn,.." hmmm it looks like some of us carry our SE addiction into other realms of entertainment.

Cheers!

I like Stargate too. But here in Belgium, they are not kind to any kind of science fiction show. They seems to buy it to fill air time and they reschedule it every so often. It really ticks me off. They did it with Voyager, Stargate, Buffy, Angel and other show. I HATE THEM.
Hehe, i feel better now

Here in Tasmania its not so bad with Stargate. The free to air channel showing it puts it on at a reasonable time like 7.30 or, it starts agin this week, 10.30. The other channel which shows Star Trek and showed Babylon 5 though doesn't appear to care much about sci fi. When a new program starts they usually have it in prime time, but by the second season its on at about 1 o'clock in the morning, and they aren't interested in keeping up to date. They still havn't shown the final season of Voyager and we have had Jeri Ryan on Boston public for 2 seasons.

In the US network television seems to delight in creating a sci-fi show and then placing it opposite another sci-fi show on the same night, so that an already limited audience is split on which to watch (and keep going for another season).

The great thing about stargate sg1 is that it is produced in Vancouver BC. That is only about an 8 hour drive from here.

It amazes me that they have come up with so many excellent stories over the years, and how each story often ties in with another one.

SPOILER

I am saddend at the death of Dr. Fraiser at the hands of the guled, but I guess that is to be expected at one point or another. The killing off of a popular character.

I would like to see more episodes with Jonus Quin (sp) in them even though he is back on his home world.

I recent bough season six on dvd and I have to say that there were many fine eposides in that season.

I do however feel the season finally should have been two hours long and had a lot more depth to it. Not really there fault as they thought the show was over.

I will enjoy the new stargate spin off and I hope that we get to see the Promethius again in both shows. For an ugly ship, it sure is beautifull.

I missed how they got this ship. I wonder how they managed to get their hands in such an awesome ship. And they even have death-gliders now, when I remember rather clearly that O'neil and Teal'c almost got space-cooled the Last time they tried to fly one of those gliders.
Obviously, I have missed several episodes.
