I'm not entirely sure if that also happened to me back then, but in some behind the scenes stuff I read years ago it said the entire episode was spoiled by the little TV program blurb in whatever US publication the team actually cared about saying "SG-1 is trapped on Antarctica" or something spoilerific like that.

I'm fortunate. I didn't start watching the series until 2003. I actually didn't know about it because I hadn't had TV service of any kind since around 1993. But I was at a friend's house and they happened to be watching Window of Opportunity. I asked what the heck it was, and they said Stargate. I only knew about the movie. They gave me a brief rundown, about how it happens after the movie. I bought the entire series on DVD (everything that had been released up until that point).

It does kinda stretch believability that Carter wouldn't consider the possibility that the same problem that landed them there could be wrong with earth's gate and therefore logically she should try dialing at least one other gate address.

SG-1 grew the beard MUCH faster than TNG did. I'm not saying TNG's first season was horrible or anything, but it's nowhere near as good as the rest of the series, and it did take TNG until season 3 to truly find its footing. It took SG-1 like 5 episode to find its footing, and it was extremely consistent throughout the entire series.

TNG's first 2 seasons were lack-luster at best. SG1 got it's act together a lot faster than most other shows.

The episode is good, but man, Sam's troubleshooting skills suck. We cannot dial Earth. That‘s bad. So let’s dial some other safe, warm place to check if the problem is this gate or the Earth one… If it works - move to the warm place to continue trying, at least you ar no longer slowly freezing to death.
