It is an easy show to watch. You can actually come into it at any point and watch it with very little problem. Sure its nice to have seen all the episodes but it is not like say Lost or Battlestar Galatica where you just don't get it unless you have seen all the episodes.And you are really right about the good guys winning. I know it is popular to have gritty shows now a days and on most BG boards fans talk about much they love how screwed up the characters are and how the good guys don't always win and often make fun of Stargate. But I know several people who are turned off just for that reason.I watch BG but I like Stargate better. I watch TV and I read for escapism. I want the good guys to win and I want my good guys to be kind of fun do the right thing stand up guys not screwed up alcoholics angst ridden people in need of a good dose of prozax. Half the time on BG I find myself rooting for the cyclons because the humans just don't deserve to win. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> I know that when Stargate first came on the air their was some criticism of RDA portrayal of Jack O'Neill because he was not as angry and depressed and suicidal as Kurt Russell's character in the movie. I didn't agree with the critics on this. It worked in the movie but watching that character week after week would have just sucked the fun out of the show. They choose to allow Jack's character to heal from his son's death and move on and it worked.</blockquote>
