Will O'Brien of TV Squad thought "Company of Thieves" was, for the most part, a good one, despite a disappointing performance by Rudolf Martin.[1] Jason Van Horn of IGN, however, was less than impressed, suggesting that the episode just wasn't interesting - that the Lucian Alliance was an enemy no one cares about and that Paul Emerson wasn't enough of a character within the show for his death to have had any meaningful impact.[2]
The tenth season of Stargate SG-1 was nominated for a Saturn Award in the category "Best Syndicated/Cable Television Series". For his portrayal of Moros in "The Quest, Part 2", Matthew Walker was nominated for a Leo Award in the category "Best Supporting Performance by a Male in a Dramatic Series".[3] The episode "200" was nominated for a Hugo Award in the category "Best Dramatic Presentation - Short Form".[3]
