The team encounters the Goa'uld Aset, who is plotting a rebellion against Ra.
MGM launched the series to coincide with the 20th anniversary of Stargate SG-1 and to serve as the flagship title for its now-defunct "Stargate Command" streaming service. While some praised the performances of Ellie Gall (Catherine) and Connor Trineer (Professor Langford), the low budget—estimated around $300k to $500k—was frequently cited as its primary downfall compared to major franchise reboots like Star Trek: Discovery .
To maintain consistency with the 1994 film—where Catherine does not appear to have traveled through the gate previously—the series concludes with a memory wipe performed by Aset. Critical and Fan Reception
The use of a memory wipe as a plot device was seen as removing character agency and making the series feel "pointless". Historical and Industrial Context Stargate Origins - Season 01
