Revolution. Possibly a more appropriate name for season 9's opener "Avalon" which deals with a reformed SG1. As gateworld already has announced season 9 begins with the SGC and its teams on a semi-hiatus, the first few episodes dealing with rebuilding the SGC and SG1 both under new leadership.
The following DOES contain various spoilers, just to let you know.
So just how does this happen:
Lt. Col. Cameron Mitchell, who we know was in the battle with Anubis over Antarctica, has been called into the SGC. There he meets the new comander of the base played by Beau Bridges character. Now Lt. Col. Mitchell was wounded in the battle over antarctica but promised a spot on SG1 when he recovered, this is what Mitchell THINKS he is at the SGC about. WRONG!!!
Bridges character basically hands Mitchell a stack of papers and says "Now go pick YOUR team." Mitchell is shocked and confused, and Bridges character explains that he Lt. Col. Mitchell is the new leader of SG1. (see why it should be called revolution) Now of course he thought he was joining the "original" SG1 and so enquires as to their where-abouts, in the hopes of rebuilding the team he (and we) all know. As to there whereabouts:
Carter is currently off on another "mission" (and I can only speculate as to what it is, however I have heard and read rumours that it is offworld so she is not with Jack.)
Jack we discover (or depending on how much you know) has been promoted to Head of homeworld security. (still no confirmed information as to where Hammond is.) It is somewhere around this point in 901 that we will see Jack (presumably in an over the phone scene, don't worry we WILL SEE him)
Daniel is off doing something else, growing a beard, so its most likely some arky related thing. (speculation is he's working in a museum, on a dig, or still going through Catherines estate)
Teal'c is off doing something else. (It has been hinted that its to do with the new Jaffa nation, and leadership of the Jaffa)
There is also the issue of Vala who is reported to make her debut in 901 though how this happens is still uncertain, potentially she is to become a quasi-sg1 team member. Though unconfirmed this is the most reasonable situation given she will be around for 6 episodes. Also somewhere in the three part opener Daniel has his "Vision" of the Orii. (When or Why, is still unclear)
While more specifics are highly controversial and limited information at best is only available at this time. It is reported as confirmed that Jack and Daniel will actually be in a scene together for part of 903, beyond that no more is known about RDA returning. So just to recap about RDA, a scene in 901 & 903.
I am still waiting for conclusive reasons as to why the Name Avalon was chosen, but from what we know right now I would say Revolution is just as good, and potentially more ominious.
