there seems to be so much conflict about the viewing order, personally i don't think we can be bothered swapping over so much, so we have watched the first 2 episodes of seasopn 8 SG1, and the first 2 episodes of SGA, and now we are just going to watch the rest of season 8 SG!, followed by rest of season 1 SGA, and alternate that way, hubby has watched SGA in full before (without ever watching any SG1) so he says if he feels there is a point in SG1 where we need to go to SGA he will let us know, but as far as i was aware, apart from a few crossovers they pretty much run independelntly

This really is the simplest way to follow the shows. Really, you could hold off on SGA's premiere until you finish SG-1's 8th season. A few reasons why alternating discs might be more fun...
SGA's "Rising" follows up SG-1's "New Order." SGA's "Letters from Pegasus" prompts the SGC to try to send help by the season finale. SG-1's season finale sets up SGA's season finale. Those are the only crossovers I can think of. Still, if it's easier to alternate seasons, run with this...
SG-1 (Season 8) -> Atlantis (Season 1)
SG-1 (Season 9) -> Atlantis (Season 2)
SG-1 (Season 10) -> Atlantis (Season 3)
The Ark of Truth (takes place after SG-1 finale and between SGA Seasons 3&4)
Atlantis (Season 4)
Atlantis (Season 5) / Continuum (takes place after SGA's 5th season premiere, but the story flows better if you watch it after Ark of Truth)
Nothing overlaps SGU, the show premiered after SG-1 and SGA concluded.

When the shows originally aired and the movies were released, I watched them as they aired and were released.
I've since watched all of it over again, all one show, then all of the next show; and I've also watched all of it over again (multiple times) using various viewing orders alternating between shows.
Then I just went back to watching all of one show at a time, which is ultimately what I prefer.
It's not about changing discs but, rather, to some extent it's the flow of storytelling within each show but it is much more about the styles of the shows themselves.
I prefer the following viewing order:
1st, SG94.
2nd, SG1.
3rd, AoT.
4th, Continuum.
5th, SGA.
6th, SGU.
And I just randomly and occasionally watch "Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods - Final Cut". I never watch the Final Cut prior to viewing the next episode of SG1, season 1, The Enemy Within. When I view the series itself and work my way through the episodes, I always watch the original version of Children of the Gods.Are you in the Kansas City area? Do you know any SG fans in the area?

Did we really need to bring up a 20-month-old thread? Regardless... Most people will not care enough to alternate episodes as you propose. Though Continuum is referenced in "Search and Rescue," the narrative flows better if viewed after The Ark of Truth. I'd recommend...
Stargate
SG-1 (Seasons 1-7)
SG-1 (Season 8) / Atlantis (Season 1)
SG-1 (Season 9) / Atlantis (Season 2)
SG-1 (Season 10) / Atlantis (Season 3)
The Ark of Truth / Continuum
Atlantis (Seasons 4&5)
Universe (Seasons 1&2)
Alternating seasons and pairing up the SG-1 movies... it's just simpler this way.

I don't know if this was mentioned already, didn't read the whole thread but Continuum takes place at the end of season four of SGA after Carter leaves. She mentions in passing just before returning to earth that the tok'ra caught the last Ba'al clone and the want SG-1 there when they remove the symbiote.

No worries,Chris.
I think some people genuinely join up because one particular question or interest bugs them,but then they just settle for reading and lurking.
It's nice (imo) to get to know newbies ,and I doubt we'll ever know if he found the order that suited him.
Ah well.Still a good thread !The place to "Gate" to during Outages for updates and info:
