I'm with you on so much of this, and I don't think you're alone in your feelings about the second half of the run. I do like a lot of S5 through S8, but they killed my team (offstage, in a line of dialogue) in 'Moebius,' and the series that won my heart was that first half; I know that a lot of fans came on board in the last two years, or found passion for a show they were getting tired of, and I'm glad for them too, but I pretty much did nothing but bitch and moan during S9/S10, and most of those episodes I've never watched a second time. So I'm also glad there's enduring love for the original team, and for the Daniel-who-was.
Oh, also, I never considered Jacob Carter that way, and you make an excellent point about him and the Tok'ra. Food for thought!
I'm happy to see below that people asked for Prydain and Downton Abbey. Yay for meme!
