I'm just getting so sick of the replicators episodes. I was really starting to like Stargate: Atlantis because so many of the episodes up to this point didn't feature replicators. The Stargate franchise, to me, is at its most interesting at the times when it creates a fictional story that puts forward the idea that Earth religions from ancient times were in some way a consequence of visitations by extraterrestrial life forms. The best parts of SG-1, for me, were the beginning as this story based on those ideas was just being shown the first time with the Goa'uld, and the end of SG-1 after the replicator episodes returned to form and the show started going into the Ori story. And I really was liking Stargate: Atlantis as well thanks to the fact that there weren't many episodes up to this point focusing on the replicators.
