I've had SG-1 seasons 1 through 7 for years and loved the show when I watched it through. If DS9 is the best sci-fi show I've seen, this was the most fun. I remember season 7 being a little rocky, but the rest was great.
I recently started watching again with the intention of continuing through to the end. I expected season 1 to be a slog, but it's actually pretty good. Sure, they visited the Mongol planet, the caveman planet, the Viking planet, and that was kind of silly, but the show managed to find its footing pretty quickly. I guess that's the combination of a strong premise and really likeable lead and supporting characters who all have great chemistry together.
The question is, have I seen the best the show had to offer? I don't know how seasons 8-10 were received by fandom, so I'm wondering if it'll be something to look forward to. What about Atlantis? I haven't seen a second of that show. Is there a certain point where I need to watch a certain episode of SG-1 before I start that? Finally, is SG-1 S1-S10 and Atlantis S1-S5, and Ark of Truth and Continuum it, or are there other movies/specials I'll need to catch up with?
