I love stargate, both atlantis and SG-1...but a very weird feeling has just come over me. Now, I am purely talking about SG-1 when I write this. This past year has been great, it has had many awesome episodes an some fun little planet of the week episodes. The quality has never been so high........and I applaud TPTB.
BUT, am I the only who gets a feeling that after 194 episodes a TV show should call the quits? Now, again, I still love the quality of the show...it is just so many times you can see the core members of SG-1 step through the gate and finish a mission without any of them dying (and yes I am aware of Prometheus, Frasier, Jacob, etc....but focusing on Sam/Daniel/Tealc). Now, I would have loved for this series to have ended at 172 episodes (at Threads...not Moebius) and that would have been a fitting end.
I respect the new enemy and think they are very awesome, but to me at least, it seems very tacked on....you get a feeling as if the show was supposed to ned in season 8 and season 9 is just tacked-on. Now, I am getting a little bored with the characters....dont get me wrong they're awesome but they have been fleshed out to almost their maximum potential. And, ultimately, I dont see how this show could last past 11 or 12 seasons without major cast changes. I do not want this to turn into the ER or law and order of sci-fi.
I started watching this show with the adventures of Jack, Sam, Daniel, and Tealc.......that is all rapidly changing. In season 10, MS wants to spend time with his wife and AT is taking off for her baby...now, I am not saying they can not have a personal life...its just that one views it in the show with all the absences it is a kind of subtle hint that the actors want to move on...right?
Anybody else think the quality is still good, but the sheer number of episodes is becoming tedious and/ or season 9 seems tacked on in terms of the whole shows' premise (but still of high quality)?
