Stargate SG1 was amazing until about S9+ where Anderson left the show and we got an obnoxious thot to help fill the gap. The shows afterwards got pretty woke as well.
Yes. Great show, a lot of the core plotlines and characters still hold up today. The writers originally made Samantha Carter an insufferable feminist, until midway through season 1, her actress (Amanda Tapping) went to the writers and told them that genuinely capable women don't talk or act the way Carter did. The writers then not only changed course, but made it so that losing the feminist chip on her shoulder was in-universe character progression.
I genuinely cannot fathom this happening in a mainstream TV show today.
'Waah, an actor for a show I used to watch doesn't parrot my opinions!'
Welcome to what the 95% of us have to endure.
I'm just glad there's no current talk of bringing Stargate back as they'd likely fuck it up.

Still worth getting into? I'm always on the hunt for old for "new" shows I never watched, especially with how shit shows are nowadays.

Ohh... Okay. Because I tried to watch it and found her to be an insufferable feminist.
If I start with season 2 will I have missed much?
