22:
Full Circle

Round 22:

Within the Serpent's Grasp

This one was by far the best season finale in the entire series, IMHO. We couldn't wait for season 2.

I'm tempted to vote for Full Circle, though, as an attempt to prevent Lost City from winning.

I think it also shows a trend in Stargate for the episodes to get a lot better in the 2nd half of a season (something that season 9 is a prime example of).

It's interesting that you'd say that, because I tend to think that the exact opposite is true--the second half of the seasons, especially in the last few years, have really sucked, for the most part--especially season 9. (Notice I didn't say totally sucked. *g* I just mean there were more crappy episodes or episodes that were partly good, but partly and horrifically horrible, like Threads, in the second half of each season.)


My Perfect Season So Far:
(My winners are highlighted in red. Thanks for the idea, -Major Woody.)

01. The Serpent's Lair
02. Children of the Gods, Part 2
03. Lockdown
04. Legacy
05. Need
06. Abyss
07. Beast of Burden
08. The First Ones
09. Secrets
10. Forever in a Day
11. The Torment of Tantalus
12. Fire & Water
13. Spirits
14. Hathor
15. Singularity
16. Cor-ai
17. Enigma
18. Holiday
19. One False Step
20. There But for the Grace of God
21. Crystal Skull
22. Within the Serpent's Grasp

Exodus doesn't seem to stand a chance so I'll go for within the serpent's grasp.

Interesting -- I'm with you in voting for Within The Serpent's Grasp however I was tempted to vote for my second choice Lost City, p2 to ensure that Full Circle didn't win.

Round 22

Within the Serpent's Grasp

2nd place would be Out of Mind. The others don't even merit a mention. Full Circle has Anubis which is enough to kill any episode and the cop out ending of blowing up the pyramid and killing all those people. And Oma ascends 5000 people and doesn't get kicked out? Boo

And then there is LC2. Well I could be here for the next month ranting about it but decided to reuse one of my rants from the S1-7 best tournament which totally failed to live up to the title.

I consider Lost City as having the same type copout ending as Full Circle. Using those squiggly things as the magical answer to conviently destroy all the enemy ships. All the ships flying around and prometheus sitting there stationery and it doesn't get badly damaged or destroyed? Just using more fancy special effects and a dizzying battle to distract fans from yet another copout ending. And sadly it seems to have worked yet again. They should have cut the special effects and spent the money on better writing.
