Stargate Infinity wasn't that bad.

It's main issues were:

• strafing too far away from the source material.
• trying too hard to make Stargate into one of the typical 90s episodic nonsense action animations

I watched it after years of hearing how horrible it is. And it's not bad per se... It just isn't Stargate anymore. The story is actually thought out, makes some sense, the morals are alright.

But to me it always felt like the writers already had a story they wanted to tell, and some exec simply made them force it into a Stargate shape. In fact all the departures from canon make it feel precisely like that: the writers were petty they couldn't do their own show, so they did it anyway, and just put on a Stargate dressing.
