Summary: Great show, unspectacular DVD transfer
Review: Although the content is there, the transfer to DVD could have been better. The sound is not up to snuff (in fact, the MGM logo sounds beautful, but the rest of the sound on the disc is noticabley quieter and not nearly as profound). Also, the image transfer could have been much better. Through many of the episode, the picture looks grainy--not sharp like DVDs should be. If it weren't for the fact that the show itself is very good, these discs from a technical standpoint are subpar.

If you are looking for just the show, these will do. If you are looking for superior sound and picture--wait. Perhaps they will fix these or issue a recall, but the quality is not there. Hopefully in the Season 2 collection there will be a better transfer.

Summary: Stargate SG-1 Season One Boxed Set DVD
Review: The SG-1 Season One DVD set is superbly done. Obviously the fine craftsmanship that went into putting together this compilation was not done for a fast buck. The motivation behind this release was accomplished by those who are true fans of the show and sincerely adore the SG-1 TV series!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Get this right away
Review: I just wish they would put the rest of the seasons out. These DVD's are just great and anyone who likes sg-1 should get them. The only prob I have with them is that they don't have english subtitles, just french and spanish.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: A Definitive Item for the Stargate or Sci-Fi fan...
Review: If you love Science-Fiction, or loved the feature movie that inspired this series. This box set of season one delivers the show is simply stunning. The series is classic Science Fiction with character driven stories, lite on the f/x but done extremely well, and people you care about the second you get to know them. It's rare when a series can do so much, especially when most first seasons are looked at by many critics and industry people and even writers on the show as a season of learning and growing pains. Season one is far from that. When the show started I watched all of two episodes before I called it poor and refused to watch it. In October on a trip to Vancouver I just happened to catch the last 30 minutes of a 4th season episode and got intrigued. I checked the local tv guide and saw it coming on three more times that night on three different channels with 3 different episodes. Canada loves good sci-fi, hey for a country that loves First Wave and Stargate what's not to like. Anyway, I watched all 3 episodes that night after being exhausted on a trek through the city and was totally sucked in. When I got back I caught a couple reruns and was hooked for sure. The 4th season was outstanding even though the series is highly serialized itself I was able to catch on what was happening by the end of the episodes that were referring to 3 full seasons I hadn't seen. I ordered the entire Showtime package on my dish network system to get commercial free Stargate reruns of the 4th season, two episodes back to back every friday night. Then I went ahead and ordered this box set, having seen a couple episodes that pushed me away the first time I went with it anyway cause I wanted to see if maybe I didn't give the show a real chance. After watching the 4th season I felt it was worth it. So I bought and in the last two days I have watched every single minute of the the box set. I have a long vacation and wanted to watch something aside from regular tv and just crash and relax. Needless to say I was wrong about the first season and giving it an honest chance I found the episodes compelling and while some are better than others, this season one rivals that of this last season of the show. As for the dvd's themselves. The transfers are beautiful, widescreen is better, and no commercials is a great way to be spoiled. The special features while small in number really flesh out the set. I noticed a comment in the first featurette on the second volume on how the editors had their work cut out for them from so much goofing off and stuff. Which maybe on a bonus disc or something would be great to see outtakes from each episode. I would have thought some deleted scenes might have found their way in the episodes or somewhere. With what MGM did for the set, I was pleased and impressed at the same time. Aside from the beautiful discs and trasnfers was a great season and something special to see. Even if you are reluctant to buy this set, ask anyone who bought this set if they regret buying it. Not one of them would say they are disappointed with disc that are far superior to the X-Files boxed sets except in bonus material. It'd be real nice to see what call the 007 editions of Stargate SG-1, especially with all those hours of film with outtakes on them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow! This is great!!
Review: I've been waiting for this to come out and I'm really glad that I finally got it. The quality is fantastic and the featurettes are great fun.

I'd recommend purchasing this set to anyone. I can't wait for the rest of the seasons to come out in DVD!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I wish all my favorite series were offered this way!!
Review: For any fan of the Stargate SG-1 series, this boxed set is a winner. A reasonable price, good quality, wide screen, and all the season 1 episodes plus the pilot. A must have for any Stargate SG-1 fan!!
