The first five or six seasons of SG-1 did a terrific job of allowing the heroes to be heroes without feeling like they did it alone. It almost always felt like a team effort. As time went on it started to drift toward the lone hero trope where saving the day comes down to one person over and over but at least the person sometimes varied. Atlantis started there but got more extreme as it went on. Essentially everything is solved by Rodney by the end of the show. Might as well be Stargate: McKay.
