Stargate SG-1 Season 6 DVD Review - DigitallyObsessed.com
March 17 2004
Entering its sixth season, Stargate SG-1 switched from Showtime to the Sci-Fi Network and faced the serious possibility this would be its final year. The series' popularity was still very high, but the concept arose that the characters' stories had run their course. Corin Nemec's Jonas Quinn joined the cast to replace Michael Shanks' Daniel Jackson, and the team dynamic might not work as well with this new addition. The previous year's episodes were solid, but they offered few standouts and too many forgettable entries. Could this classic science-fiction show rebound and match its previous high standards?Remarkably, this season includes a collection of wonderful tales that rank among the best of the show's entire run. Nemec surprised me by making Jonas a fascinating individual much different from his beloved predecessor. His desire for acceptance and difficulties gaining the others' trust lead to some excellent character interaction among the group. Shanks returns several times as Jackson to help his friends, and those episodes offer a refreshing dramatic weight. Richard Dean Anderson yields a bit more to Amanda Tapping and Christopher Judge, which lessens his character a bit but gives the others an excellent opportunity to enhance their roles. The usual talented guest stars also appear, including Tony Amendola (Bra'tac), Carmen Argenziano (Jacob/Selmak), John de Lancie (Simmons), Tom McBeath (Maybourne), and Ronny Cox (Senator Kinsey).
