The Second Season of Stargate SG-1 begins immediately after Season 1, it is technically part two of the season one finale. The story again follows Jack O’Neill (Richard Dean Anderson), Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping), Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), and Teal’c (Christopher Judge) and all of their doings while in the team SG-1.

The second season consists of 22 episodes that run roughly 40 minutes. Season two is essentially season one part two, literally if you consider the first episode. It continues what season one did with traveling to various planets with the plan to meet new species/cultures, bring back new technology, and still trying to find some people they lost earlier on. However the emphasis in season two is more geared towards trying to create alliances to fight the Goa'uld rather then just going to new worlds with the hopes of learning cultures.

What season two does do somewhat differently then season one is that is involves more fighting. There are more conflicts with the Goa'uld, especially since season two introduces even more Goa'ulds. Also there is more time spent on earth covering the SGC’s (Stargate Command) conflict with other earth-based groups.
While many of the episodes in season two are quite interesting, there are a couple of them that will leave you questioning why you just spent 40 minutes watching something so useless. However, these kinds of episodes are very few and far between. Only 2 episodes stick out in my mind. So for the majority of season 2 the episodes are actually very interesting and fun to watch.

| Yeah, this episode is terrible... |
Season two of SG-1 has the exact same reasons to be watched as season one did. These reasons being the “new” worlds and interesting earth history, great actors, and the production values. If anything season two improves on season one by improving some of the production values, some very nice special effects are added in season two.
Much like season 1, missing Season 2 would later be partially/extremely detrimental. You could definitely pick up what you missed, but it would be quite confusing. Season 2 introduces some things that will have a large impact on the entirety of Stargate SG-1.
