Wormhole X-treme is the best. They criticize and second guess every plot-issue on the series.
My favorite is on the last season:
I'm writing the story for this episode, and the characters are stuck on $complex_situation$. I don't know how to get them out, do you have any idea?
Why don't they $stuff_stagate_did_2_episodes_ago$?
What? No! That's stupid! - and goes on for a minute or so enumerating all the problems with the plot.
My favorite part is all the inside jokes they pack in as well. You don't really get all of them as a viewer, but I've watched every episode with commentary, and a lot of interviews with a lot of the directors, producers, prop/costume/sfx people.
Nothing beats the "special effects coordinator" guy screaming BIGGER at everyone after they show him progressively larger explosive effects.
