Stargate SG-1 picks up a year after the conclusion of the events recounted in the original feature film.

SG-1 and a dozen other SG teams venture to distant planets using an alien portal known as a Stargate, which in the series is housed in a top-secret United States Air Force military base known as Stargate Command in the underground Cheyenne Mountain Complex in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

In the first eight seasons, the mission of the SG teams is to explore the galaxy and search for alien technology and allies to defend Earth against the Goa’uld, a snake-like parasitic alien race from planet P3X-888 that takes humans as unwilling hosts. The Goa’uld had transported human slaves from Earth to other habitable planets across the galaxy thousands of years ago and now pose as gods of Ancient Egypt.

SG-1 eventually learns that highly evolved human-like beings, known as the Ancients, had originally built the Stargate network millions of years earlier, before ascending to a higher plane of existence, after which they pledged not to interfere in the lives of other species. The Ori, a faction of the same race as the Ancients who instead use their powers to subjugate other species by religious indoctrination, assume the role of the main antagonists in Season 9 and Season 10.

7.19: Resurrection

Air Date: February 27, 2004

After the slaughter of 32 persons in a rogue NID facility, Major Carter, Daniel Jackson and Teal’c are summoned by Agent Barret to travel to Los Angeles. He explains that there are only two survivors: the scientist Dr. Keffler and the killer, a young woman called Anna that claims to be amnesic. Further, he called the SG-1 team to help the investigation since there are many Goa’uld artifacts in a store that belonged to the disciple of Ra, Sekhmet. Soon Teal’c and Daniel find a Goa’uld bomb in an ark in countdown to explode and Carter discovers that Anna is a Goa’uld-human hybrid created by Dr. Keffler using Sekhmet DNA.
