Stargate SG-1 Season Four aired on Showtime in the U.S. from 2000 to 2001. With Apophis back from the dead, the team waits for him to consolidate his power and make his next move. Meanwhile, the Tok’ra Anise introduces a few problems; several planets pose ethical conundrums for Earth; and Osiris emerges from her long slumber. Teal’c swears a revenge oath against the young Goa’uld spy Tanith, and Daniel makes a new buddy after he is captured by a primitive Unas.

Things to watch for this season:

• Sam’s “dumb idea”
• Tok’ra and their hosts may share feelings, but that doesn’t mean they always have to be into the same guy …
• Daniel reminisces about how he met his father-in-law
• Some familiar faces figured out how to survive off of the planet Altair
• Odo splatter.
• An Ancient civilization that went extinct
• A strategic use for the blackhole planet from Season Two
• “Holy frozen bad guys!”
• “Cheyenne, we have a problem …”
• The introductions of several recurring characters, including Rak’nor, Chaka, Dr. Lee and more
