"Fallen" is the 1st episode of the seventh season of science fiction television series Stargate SG-1. The episode was first broadcast on June 13, 2003, on the Sci-Fi Channel and was immediately followed by the 2nd episode and conclusion to the two-part story, "Homecoming". A behind the scenes documentary and look ahead at the upcoming seventh season called "Stargate: The Lowdown" preceded the episode. Executive producer Robert C. Cooper wrote the episode, with Martin Wood directing. The episode is the 133rd overall.
In the episode, continuing their search for the Lost City of the Ancients, Stargate Command discovers Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks) living on an alien planet with no memory of who he is or how he got there. As SG-1 try to help Jackson remember who he is, they hatch a plan to lure the Goa'uld Anubis into a trap.
The episode set a new record as both the most watched broadcast ever for the Sci-Fi Channel and most watched episode of the show so far. Also notably, "Fallen" marks the return of Michael Shanks' character Daniel Jackson as a main cast member after leaving the main cast at the end of season five.
