Favourite SG + why


I'm wondering what everybody's favourite incarnation of Stargate is.

Stargate - Motion Picture
SG1
SGA
SGU
SGinfinity

I'd also like to hear opinions on why.

Personally, I got hooked from the start and saw the original film in the cinema and loved it. When I heard that they were bringing out a tv-series, I instantly became hooked. As I got older though, I lost touch with SG1 and found I grew tired of it; maybe I wasn't looking at the mythology of it as much as I was the individual stories. Then came SGA. I watched the first few episodes but found it was too similar for my liking and for a while, I dismissed Stargate altogether. I remember reading a few years later that Robert Carlyle was going to be in an SG series so I thought, for nostalgia's sake and really liking the actor, I would watch. From then, I got straight back in to the series and fell in love with Stargate all over again. I re-watched the movie, started SG1 again and tried SGA for a second time. I found that I had a deeper respect for SG1 but SGA still didn't sit right with me - I respected the program and liked some of the characters but, for me, I didn't find it that exciting. I've tried it a few times since and although I love certain aspects of it, I don't think it's for me.

My favourite overall is SGU - I love that they tried something new and I really enjoyed it, it's just a shame that they cancelled it too early.

What about everybody else? I'd love to hear your thoughts and stories!

Please, no trolls and respect other people's opinions!
