About 3 years ago, I watched the stargate movie and really loved it. I immediately tried to watch sg1 but had a really hard time due to the characters being recast with actors who are significantly different than their movie counterparts.
Well, I guess enough time has passed and I got through the first 3ish episodes and have been hooked since then.
I just started season 2 this afternoon.
Please no spoilers.
I tecommend not being too worried if you do see a spoiler about the show because it is done vey well overall and the way the episodes play out tends to be far more important than any twists or reveals.
