I'd like to think the same is true for SG1, there isn't a PTB drive to piss off Skiffy with poor episodes, they're just writing poor episodes thanks to rushed scripts, poorly developed characters, cheezy lines, and bad plots. Besides, intentionally writing bad episodes is much worse than writing bad episodes just because you don't know any better. It's like smart girls who pretend to be dumb just because they think the boys will like it.
And like Shadow said, it's awfully convenient to claim "Oh, we meant to do that" once everything is said and done...
