In a military base, six hostile aliens apparently led by Ra cross the Stargate, kill five soldiers and abduct a female soldier. Major General George Hammond summons retired Colonel Jack O'Neill and and tells that he will blow-up Abydos with a nuclear bomb and Colonel O'Neill discloses the truth about Dr. Daniel Jackson and the peaceful people from Abydos. General Hammond assigns two teams to return to Abydos, SG-1 under the command of Colonel O'Neill with Captain Samantha Carter, who is a scientist, and SG-2 commanded by Major Charles Kawalsky to seek out the kidnapped soldier and to bring Daniel back. When they cross the Stagate, they are welcomed by Daniel, his wife Sha're, Skaara and the friendly people of Abydos. But soon the hostile aliens arrive in Abydos, killing several inhabitants and kidnapping Sha're and Skaara. Daniel and Dr. Carter discover that the Stagate can have multiple destinations and they follow the aliens. They lean that Sha're and Skaara are now hosting the dangerous alien form Gou'ald inside them and the rest of kidnapped people is doomed to die.

"Stargate SG-1 – Children of the Gods" is an excellent pilot and sequel of 1994 "Stargate", one of my favorite sci-fis ever. I have recently bought the DVD box with the ten seasons and I am impressed with this first episode. The plot follows one year after the end of the original movie and uses great characters and awesome special effects. I am looking forward to see the 213 episodes after eighteen years of the release date. My vote is nine.
