Star­gate SG-1 Sea­son 6, SG-1 great­ness con­tin­ues — nuff said.

Amazon’s syn­op­sis:

The biggest change for Star­gate SG-1’s sixth sea­son was its move to the Sci-Fi Chan­nel. Finan­cial res­cue or genre haven from can­cel­la­tion? What­ever the behind-the-scenes pol­i­tics, the depar­ture of Daniel Jack­son (actor Michael Shanks) the pre­vi­ous year most cer­tainly con­tributed to the need to run a tighter ship some­where. With the addi­tion of his replace­ment, Jonas Quinn, the new show dynamic (hinted at by the new title theme) meant far more con­vo­lut­edly involved story arcs and less indi­vid­ual focus. One of very few solo spot­lights came from Christo­pher Judge writ­ing his own show, when “The Changeling” saw Teal’c act out a life as a fire­man. One rea­son for its being a fan favorite was the cameo from still-alive-after-all Daniel Jack­son. There’d be sev­eral more through the year, cul­mi­nat­ing in a finale that relied on how much atten­tion you’d been pay­ing to that all-important back-story. Other kooky cameos included Dean Stock­well in one of the many spot­lights on the energy resource n’quadria, Ian Buchanan as one of the dev­il­ish Repli­ca­tors (and hope­fully the end of that plot­line), and reg­u­lar spots from John DeLan­cie, Ronny Cox, and Tom McBeath as the Earth-bound series bad guys. More per­ti­nently, we also saw The X-Files’ Byers (Bruce Har­wood) as a sci­en­tist involved with the Antarc­tic Gate. Lest we for­get, there are other por­tals on Earth. Is that an already planned spin-off on the horizon?
