Brigadier General Jonathan "Jack" O'Neill (Richard Dean Anderson) is the commanding officer of SG-1. He's accompanied by Dr. Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), the brilliant professor whose investigations originally helped uncover the existence of the stargates, and fellow teammates Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping) and Teal'c (Christopher Judge).
