Soooo many great franchises got turned into slop machines with no soul and the writing of a ninth grader.
true, SG1 almost become another slopbox, good thing the showrunners dint budge on what the exects wanted for the show, which was 'broader audience"
I was talking about SG1 the other day and how when they did write something that was not a good idea long term, they would ignore it in universe and then make fun of it in a later Wormhole Xtreme/time travel/parallel universe episode. Really a good way of doing retcon that takes the steam out any arguments.
