Have you watched Stargate SG-1?
Which is your favourite season?
Who are your favourite characters?

The plot of Stargate SG-1 picks up a year after the conclusion of the events recounted in the original feature film. It follows the present-day adventures of SG-1, a military team from Earth. SG-1 and a dozen other SG teams venture to distant planets using an alien portal known as a Stargate, which in the series is housed in a top-secret United States Air Force military base known as Stargate Command (SGC) in the underground Cheyenne Mountain Complex in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In the first eight seasons, the mission of the SG teams is to explore the galaxy and search for alien technology and allies to defend Earth against the Goa'uld, a snake-like parasitic alien race from planet P3X-888 that takes humans as unwilling hosts. As explained in the series' backstory, the Goa'uld had transported human slaves from Earth to other habitable planets across the galaxy thousands of years ago and now pose as gods of old Earth mythologies, particularly Ancient Egypt. SG-1 eventually learns that highly evolved human-like beings, known as the Ancients, had originally built the Stargate network millions of years earlier, before ascending to a higher plane of existence, after which they pledged not to interfere in the lives of other species. The Ori, a faction of the same race as the Ancients who instead use their powers to subjugate other species by religious indoctrination, assume the role of the main antagonists in Season 9 and Season 10.

I'm a big fan of SG-1. My wife got me into it when we were dating in college. I've seen every episode, most more than once, and both of the movies that followed the end of the show.

It's close between seasons 7 and 8 for my favorites.

My favorite characters off the top of my head are the original 4 SG-1 members, Vala, Baal, Adria, and Osiris.

I've also seen Atlantis and Universe. Atlantis was pretty good. Universe was different, but I was liking it and I thought they got cancelled right as the show was figuring out what works.

Never really watched it. Only thing I know about it is the dude who voices L from Death Note is in it.
