10 Worst Episodes In The Stargate Franchise

10. Big Mistake - Stargate Infinity

The temptation for this list to put on a blindfold and point randomly at ten episodes of Stargate Infinity is palpable. Whilst any episode could sit quite firmly in the number one spot, to do so would legitimise them as actual Stargate, so your writer's just going to leave one here.

With no involvement from the writers, producers or cast members of its namesake, to call this show a black sheep in the franchise would be akin to calling Anubis a bit naughty, and its non-canonical, kid-friendly approach has drawn the ire of pretty much the entire fanbase.

Cancelled after one season due to low viewership, and positive reviews of the 26 episodes are hard to come by, but in amongst the pack we have to give credit to the appropriately titled 'Big Mistake' for being a low-light in the series. The team arrive on an arid desert planet inhabited by the Mo'Tai, and the precognitive Seattle Montoya decides to help them with a bold irrigation plan.

Starting the pitch with 'bold irrigation plan' should give you all the information you need about the quality of this episode, but the addition of sentient energy rocks as a 'villain' just adds icing to the already baffling cake. Equal parts contrived and dreary, it's no wonder that Infinity Season 2 is not on any fan's wishlist.
