First, let's not compare SG-1 to DS9 or any other show. SG-1 is it's own show, so unless it's done something that's already been done before on another show, let's judge SG-1 on it's own merits, OK? Comparing it to Atlantis is OK by me, though, since they're set in the same creative world.
Why must SG-1 end on a serialized note?
For the show's entire run, we've had individual episodes, two-parters, and trilogies. Have we had stories that spanned four or more episodes (back-to-back)? I can't think of any. When the Goa'uld and Replicators were finally defeated, it happened in two episodes, "Reckoning, Parts 1 & 2." The Ori have only been around for two years. The plot will be resolved in The Ark of Truth. If the Goa'uld and Replicators can be defeated in two episodes, then the Ori can be defeated in a movie.
Why does the show have to end with the Ori? I'm glad it's final episodes are mostly independent stories. If the Ori were in every episode, I would have stopped watching.
