I hope SG-1 doesn't really pull an Enterprise

 The biggest, baddest System Lord of them all will finally return to Stargate after a 10-year absence, GateWorld has learned. Ra, the alien villain from 1994's "Stargate" feature film will be reintroduced to TV viewers, thanks to the magic of science fiction.

Casting of the character is still unknown, though it is likely that Ra will remain behind his ceremonial mask when he appears on screen. He was originally played by Jaye Davidson in the film; Davidson is no longer actively acting.

The film reveals that it was Ra who first encountered humans when he discovered Earth 10,000 years ago. He and the rest of the Goa'uld enslaved the planet, using the Stargate to transplant their new servants to hundreds of worlds across the galaxy. After reigning on Earth for millenia, Ra was overthrown by an uprising among the ancient Egyptians, who buried the Stargate.

SG-1's eighth season concludes with "Moebius," a 2-part episode that will involve time travel and an alternate time line. The episode will air in early 2005 on The SCI FI Channel.
Only in America .....do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.

I think SG-1 is running out of juice.  their first major mistake was to promote richard dean anderson for BG, thereby pretty much dissolving SG-1.  Notice the lack of missions through the stargate this season?  The whole plot line has changed, and they've basically started anew.
Also, putting carter in charge of SG-1 was a mistake.  She's smart and a great scientist and all, but not a leader.  Sorry, just how it is.  If they really wanted a female in charge of the group they shoulda gone with some new chick.  ALthough, I like how carter isn't one of those"i have to prove i'm as good as or better than any man in every way" characters.  At least, not anymore. 
I just feel like this series is slipping and will continue to do so.

Can you heal the broken worlds within?
Can you strip away so we may start again?

it looks to me that this is definitely the last year. Why else pull Ra out and do an alternate dimension/time travel story unless they are going to wrap things up. The reason I think this might, repeat, might be an alternate dimension is the Jay Avacone (kawalsky) is supposed to be in the final.

It won't bother me if it ends, since it's not the same anymore.
Tracey, you're just about to burst out of that suit.  I like it.  Of course, I'd like it better if you actually did burst out of your suit...
