Stargate SG-1 reached a pinnacle in its eighth season, wrapping up major storylines with the defeat of the Goa’uld System Lords and the Replicators. For the first time since Earth first opened up the Stargate, our galaxy was relatively safe. Season Eight would also be the last for Richard Dean Anderson as a full cast member.

I’m a little surprised by these results. I a lot of options that didn’t win were nominated far many more times than those that did win. I definitely did not pick the top choice in most scenarios.
