Line 57:
** In the Stargate [[The Movie|movie]] they started with Ra, an [[Evil Overlord]] who was the [[Last of His Kind]]. When they [[Recycled: the Series|recycled it for the series]], he was [[Retcon|changed]] to be the most powerful of the "System Lords", a loose-knit group of [[Evil Overlord|evil overlords]] each with a [[A God Am I|god-complex]]. His death started an [[Lensman Arms Race|arms race]] among the lesser System Lords. This lead the main characters into conflict with:
** Apophis. Starting with kidnapping [[It's Personal|several friends of the main characters]] for use as [[Puppeteer Parasite|hosts]] he remained a threat until he, after steadily losing power and influence because of the conflict with the heroes, was defeated and killed by a more powerful System Lord late in the second season.
** Sokar, having inspired the myth of [[Satan]] through his ruthlessness and evil and having a fleet of warships at his command ready to [[Take Over the World|conquer the galaxy]], was shaping up to be the new [[Big Bad]] when SG-1 and their [[Defector From Decadence|Tok'Ra allies]] killed him by [[Earthshattering Kaboom|blowing up a moon]]. Unfortunately, before Sokar was killed he had brought Apophis [[Back from the Dead]] so that he could [[
** So, once again the [[Big Bad]] is Apophis. Apophis with a fleet of warships poised to take over the galaxy. He starts with attacking [[And Your Little Dog, Too|Teal'c's homeworld of Chulak]], continues by killing several rival [[Evil Overlord|System Lords]] and, when on the brink of Galactic Domination, his fleet is vaporized when SG-1 [[Remember When You Blew Up a Sun?|blow up a sun]]. Unfortunately he survives. Also unfortunately, the nova [[Phlebotinum Breakdown|screwed up]] the [[Faster-Than-Light Travel]] of the ships escaping the nova, and both Apophis and SG-1 find themselves trapped in another galaxy. To make it even worse, the writers choose this exact moment to subvert [[Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale]] and [[Casual Interstellar Travel]], meaning that even traveling at full speed, it would take over 200 years to return to their own galaxy. He's eventually killed for real when the Replicators invade his ship and it slams into another planet.
** Next up is Anubis, who creates a nearly-unstoppable force of [[Super Soldier|super soldiers]], and has access to technology more advanced than literally everyone else except the [[Neglectful Precursors]], who are all gone. He devastates the remaining System Lords with his immense forces, leaving our heroes as the only hope of stopping him. He is finally defeated when the fleet sent to conquer Earth is destroyed by a [[Lost Technology]] Superweapon.
