Just a little love letter to Stargate.
Dear Stargate SG-1,
Although I only started watching you almost two years ago, I've seen all 213 episodes that have aired. And I think I love you.
You are so much more than sci-fi. Although I can always treasure a good watching of Star Wars, you've always had something more. Maybe it was your weekly episodes, and between seasons, guessing and spoiling ourselves on your next episodes.
The real reason I love you Stargate, is because of your characters. I would have stopped watching you a long time ago if Jack, Sam, Daniel and Teal'c hadn't had the chemistry that they do. You, Stargate, balanced their deep friendship with humor, action, mystery, suspense, and romance.
Ah, Stargate. What a wonderful job you did providing me with romance. You gave me Jack. You gave me Sam. You put them together, creating the most powerful and most spectacular love story. Their chemistry is amazing and has always worked well with the plot. You're such a genius, always balancing their relationship with the storyline and the other characters. I love you Stargate.
You, Stargate, are not about fighting aliens, or blowing up suns. You're about the characters. Amazing, complex, deep, funny, smart, witty, strong, CHARACTERS. And their relationships.
You, Stargate, are the real deal.
So now, I bid you adieu, with a legacy of ten amazing seasons of episodes. Characters have died, characters have joined the team, characters have moved away, baddies have died, and more baddies have came. But you, Stargate, are still as amazing as ever. I think I love you.
So, thank you Stargate, for ten SPECTACULAR, AMAZING years. You will be fantastic in the future, whenever that may be.
Love,
Hannah
