The biggest change for Stargate SG-1's sixth season was its move to the Sci-Fi Channel. Financial rescue or genre haven from cancellation? Whatever the behind-the-scenes politics, the departure of Daniel Jackson (actor Michael Shanks) the previous year most certainly contributed to the need to run a tighter ship somewhere. With the addition of his replacement, Jonas Quinn, the new show dynamic (hinted at by the new title theme) meant far more convolutedly involved story arcs and less individual focus. One of very few solo spotlights came from Christopher Judge writing his own show, when "The Changeling" saw Teal'c act out a life as a fireman. One reason for its being a fan favorite was the cameo from still-alive-after-all Daniel Jackson. There'd be several more through the year, culminating in a finale that relied on how much attention you'd been paying to that all-important back-story. Other kooky cameos included Dean Stockwell in one of the many spotlights on the energy resource n'quadria, Ian Buchanan as one of the devilish Replicators (and hopefully the end of that plotline), and regular spots from John DeLancie, Ronny Cox, and Tom McBeath as the Earth-bound series bad guys. More pertinently, we also saw The X-Files' Byers (Bruce Harwood) as a scientist involved with the Antarctic Gate. Lest we forget, there are other portals on Earth. Is that an already planned spin-off on the horizon? --Paul Tonks

ONE OF THE BEST SEASONS OF THIS SERIES!:
I really like the series and I'm sorry to see it end. But I think season 6 was one of the most imaginative seasons Starge SG-1 had! I was really tired of Michael Shanks running in/out and the addition of Corin Nemec was refreshing.
Especially since most of all the seasons consisted of them going to a planet where everybody always looked the SAME!
Stargate SG-1 Season 6 - Mrosario:
I am a Stargate fan and I don't get enough of the Stargate SG-1 shows, so I have started buying them. I enjoy them all. This, season 6 thinpak, is just great. I was a little doubtful as to getting it because Daniel Jackson was not in it, but Jonas Quinn bought his own appeal to the show. Very determine young man, especially when he was trying to get into the SG-1 team and Teal'c was sparing with him and Teal'c kept punching Jonas down but Jonas kept getting up as fast as he fell. All the shows are great but... more info
Stargate SG-1 Season 6:
Corin Nemec brought life and extra dynamics to the series. The episodes he appears together with Michael Schanks are the most fun!
Stargate SG1 season 6:
I really enjoy watching Stargate SG1, these are more of the high quality shows that we have grown to love.
