      I loved his Star Trek reference in his first episode. In case others are wondering,

      He is the leader of a human looking alien race.

      He is explaining his people’s histories and said something like,

      “We were once part of a galactic federation of planets.” He then paused and looked at the camera for a second.

      For those who have not watched it, Stargate is a fantastic series.

      Watch them in order.

      The Movie

      Stargate Sg-1 (the first three or four episodes are kind rough, but stick with it it picks up super quicker and then every episode is fantastic.) Seasons 9 and 10 were just OK and you can stop at season 8 as the show was originally planned to end there.

      Stargate Atlantis is also great. I thought I would be a bad spinoff, but it has been just as good and the cast of characters is really great.

      I have not watched the others yet as I’m near the end of Atlantis still.

      They have tons of references to Trek and show a clear respect towards it. You will also see tons of Trek actors making cameo appearances.

    I disliked but appreciated Jellico as a character, and spent the back half of SG1 waiting for John Crichton to leave Kinsey on the caveman world with no antihistamines.

      the acting was good- it takes skill to make people hate a character that much, after all.

      But Jellico can get stuffed in the buffer.
