This is one of my favorite seasons of Stargate SG-1.
The first thing that totally makes this season greater than its predecessors is that the main cast has changed a bit. We now have the awesome, selfish and funny Vala Mal Doran in the show. I **** love her, and yes it’s a bit sad that both O’Neill and General Hammond is gone but the new characters are just as great and the show reallyThis is one of my favorite seasons of Stargate SG-1.

Cameron Mitchell as the leader of SG-1 is superb, maybe not as entertaining as O’Neill but I totally love him. The season starts with extremely innovative sci-fi episodes with an introduction of a new enemy, the Ori. One thing I love with this franchise is that they take religion and mythology and mix them around until it gets epic. The Ori is an enemy that’s even scarier and more dangerous than the Goa’uld, that’s one of the great things with this ninth season. There are still some downsides. One thing is that it’s a bit too drastic that they removed all the big enemies in only two episodes. It feels like they came up with the idea with the Ori and just took a big shovel and took the Replicators and the Goa’uld and throw it away. It feels to rash. There’s also much Jaffa-politics, and I totally love it. But I don’t think everyone would agree with me on that one. Still, I really love this season and the best episodes are of course "Avalon (Part 1 & 2)", "Origin", "Beachhead", "The Fourth Horseman (Part 1 & 2)", "Ethon", "Off the Grid", "Arthur's Mantle", "Crusade" and ”Camelot”. There have never been another season of SG-1 that got so much great episodes.
This ninth season is wonderful, and the epic scale of sci-fi in this franchise truly is spectacular.
The average score for each episode is: 8.32.
