What better technology is there in the show’s first season than Destiny herself? The ship was launched eons ago by the Ancients, equipped with shields, weapons, a faster-than-light drive … and far more secrets than could be explored in a mere 40 episodes.
From: “Air, Part 1”
64% of the vote
By far the show’s best antagonist in the first season was an advanced race of non-humanoid aliens, who have been tracking Destiny and will stop at nothing to gain access to the ship and its weapons. The aliens held Chloe and Rush captive, and may have left one of them irrevocably altered …

as Jack O’Neill
Now in charge of Homeworld Command, General O’Neill served as the team’s point of contact whenever they used the communication stones to contact Earth.

as Amanda Perry
A personal friend from Nicholas Rush’s past, Dr. Perry is a brilliant scientist and an expert on alien propulsion systems. Her out-of-body visit to Destiny via the stones (to repair the F.T.L. drive) gave the quadriplegic woman a chance to experience the world like never before.

Love the Rewatch my vote for the best one of season 1 is human
I'm amazed by the results of this vote. So shocked that the best Eli moment was the one where he caries Chloe around the ship. I thought that was one of the lowest points for Eli. The fact that the moment where he figures out how to dial the 9th Chevron is not the winner by a landslide amazes me. I think that was one of the best moments of the ENTIRE series.
The best Rush moment was from the episode Human. The entire episode was a soap opera. So over-dramatic and sappy.
Also how Subversion didn't win best episode and Kiva didn't win best adversary I will never understand.
jim, never lose the love of your life. You might get sappy
TW, that over dramatic and sappy stuff belongs on soap operas and shows like Gray's Anatomy, soap operas and pretty much anything on the CW. It's even fine in small amounts to help develop the characters but when a show is suppose to be sci-fi and it ends up being 90% over-dramatic it's too much.
