Yeah, I think we have to cut them *some* slack with show-wide inconsistencies, especially with a show as long-lived as Stargate. We fans will always beat the writers in the Trivial Pursuit contest! :)
What really gets me is inconsistencies within a single episode. For example, Jack has 2 General's stars in Act 1, 1 star in Act 3, and back to 2 stars in Act 5. Or when a weapon/radio/other prop "magically" appears where there was no sign of it before. That kind of stuff makes me want to have a stern word with the Props Dept. or convince them to hire me as a continuity consultant.
