The Torment of Tantalus, because of poor Earnest. Catherine and him are lovely. And because I think this is a good Daniel episode, I love the differences between him and Jack that were really evident in the first few series.

There But for the Grace of God took my vote -- it has just a great combo of suspense, new information, mind-boggling, and that touch of shippy romance.
A very close runner-up was The Torment of Tantalus, an episode I found truly painful. I don't think I've ever identified with Daniel as much since then. It was fascinating to learn about the 4 races as well.
My other favourites in this season were: The Nox, Thor's Hammer and Hathor. Great new characters and the episodes had fantastic endings.
Aside: I can't believe someone voted for Emancipation! I'd love to hear why, since it wasn't an episode that I particularly liked.

Hmm, it really is close between a few eps. I think in the end I'd have to go with Enigma, it brought up a lot of cool ideas and introduced us to the Tollan. Though Cold Lazarus is a close second, and if I watched it again it'd probably get the number 1 spot.

I voted for the Nox as I really love that race of beings and hope to see more of them in the future. I thought they would perhaps be in more than they have been though I don't like to say anything more than that here in case of people avoiding spoilers for later series episodes.
Brief Candle actually ran a close second place for me with Enigma and Hathor not far behind either.

I voted for the Nox....it's my favorite from S1.It makes no difference what you do to me. But know this, the Ori are all-seeing.

This one was hard, cos there are loads of good episodes in this series - to be honest, about half my faves overall come from series one...
I chose Torment of Tantalus in the end though. I just loved the mythology, and seeing the gate in a more recent history context. And my mind boggled at the idea of someone being stranded like that for years...poor Ernest...

I had to vote for Torment of Tantalus. Most of my favorite episodes are the ones where the team isn't fighting Goa'uld and having huge battles, but rather exploring and gaining new knowledge about themselves and other races. As someone who has been known to disappear into libraries for hours at a time, I well known the temptation of knowledge, and appreciate the writers acknowledging this.

Children of the Gods, most season 1 episodes were pretty lame in my opinion.Originally posted by G.B ShawSilence is the most perfect expression of scorn.
