Summary: A necessity for Stargate fans eveywhere.
Review: It's been a long time, but Season 3 is finally coming to DVD. Arguably the best season of Stargate SG-1, there is a balance of dramatic and lighter episodes, as well as continued development of the overall story arc. The Goa'uld become a little nastier this season, and Earth finds itself in need of some powerful allies. We get to see alternate Earths, watch Jack go bad, meet Oma Desala, and get introduced to the Replicators. There is also a lot of character development over the season, and a resolution to several ongoing stories, including Shau'rae's and Ska'ara's. Very much a season of 'the team', SG-1 are at their best here and their interactions show the sense of team spirit that is lacking in later seasons. With episodes like 'Fair Game', 'Legacy', 'Forever in a Day', 'Urgo' and 'Shades of Grey', I cannot recommend this season enough to either long time fans, or those looking to get into the Stargate SG-1 world.

Summary: The best season yet!
Review: Lucky for us Brits, the season 3 box set is already out! I have to say, it's the best season ever. With episodes like 'Into the Fire', 'Legacy', 'Point of View', 'Foothold' and the best two-parter 'Jolinar's Memories part 1 and The Devil you Know part 2' this box set is a brilliant 25 hours of entertainment!
It's also the first box set in Britain to be released with any special features.
This is also the best season so far for Sam/Jack. (I haven't seen Season 6 yet, though) With episodes like 'Point of View' and 'A Hundred Days' being among the best.
You must go out and buy this DVD box set! My player must be exhausted from all the times i've played them!

Summary: Commentaire #1
Review: Many people believe that subsequent seasons of Stargate: SG1 get progressively better. So far, no arguement from me. Season 1 was good, 2 was better, and this has been the best so far. Col. Jack O'Neill (Richard Dean Anderson), and his SG1 team of the now Maj. Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping), Dr. Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), and Teal'c (Christopher Judge) continued their adventures through the Stargate to various old and new planets. The team, as well as the SGC in general, were tested in many more ways than ever thought possible. The team went to "Hell" in order to save Sam's dad, who is still a member of the Tok'Ra resistance, Daniel suffered a major loss, and O'Neill was blended, albeit briefly, with a Goa'uld.
One of the reasons that I personally liked this year was that many of last year's conflicts were resolved (Lenea, Destroyer of Worlds), which made room for new plotlines (the Replicators), as well as continuing old ones (the search for the Harsesis child). Also, this season revitalized a Season 1 plotline that had been falsely ended in Season 2.
This is also the season when SG1 truly realizes that they truly have allies in their fight against the Goa'uld; the Asgard helped form a treaty between Earth and the Goa'uld (though it is not likely to be followed by either party due to some of the clauses), the Tok'Ra continue to offer their assistance and wisdom, the Nox have begun to reestablish contact with the SGC, and the Tollan, who are also human, now have reason to truly dislike the parasitic alien race. Speaking of which, I really liked the episode "Pretense", because it gave large roles to the Tollan and Liah, who is of the Nox. I mean, if the Asgard had made an appearance in the episode, then it would have really been a party.
Other good episodes include "Into the Fire", "Fair Game", "Legacy", "Learning Curve", "Point of View", "Past and Present", "Jolinar's Memories", "The Devil You Know", "Foothold", "Urgo", "Shades of Grey", "New Ground", and "Nemesis". Judging by the increase in quality each season, I can't wait to see Season 4.

Summary: Keep 'em Coming Guys!
Review: Now things are getting good....not that they've been bad, but that's just a figure of speech.

In this season we get to see all sorts of wild things, including escalating hostilities between the earth and the Goa'uld, the parasites that use humans as their 'vehicles'.

We learn more about the interraction between parasite and host in this season, especially in Jolinar's Memories. There are more good episodes here than I can mention, although many of the episodes deal with issues raised in previous seasons, so for someone who hasn't seen those earlier episodes, they might not make complete sense, although they've added comments from the characters to try and help alleviate the confusion.

Overall, I still say this is the best television sci-fi show ever, even better than Star Trek: The Next Generation, with this being the best season yet, at least until Season 4 is released. That's the problem with Stargate...it keeps getting better each season!

Coolest Episode: Crystal Skull

Best Extra: Secret Files of the SGC Profile on Col. O'neill.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Season of a Great Show
Review: Old Enemies return and New enimies rise. SG-1 is introduced to the enemy that the Asgard can't even defeat. PLot lines are concluded and new ones begin, in Season 3, considered by some to be the best season of Stargate SG-1.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing
Review: Plain and simple. Amazing. The boxes in this set are beautiful, just amazing. The episodes are top-notch, cream of the crop, no filler. This is the season that hooked me and I'm still awed by it.

I love the outtake scene on the front of Disc 5, of Amanda Tapping kissing Thor on the lips. This boxed set is amazing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the king of sci-fi
Review: Sg1 is just too amazing. The stories are great and they truly start to shine in season 3. We have had 2 seasons for some good character development so why not throw in some new gods and allies and make things happen!

This season is just great and sets up a lot of stuff that we will be going back to in further seasons. Such as the episode jolinars memories and of course urgo is a great episode and shows what most sci-fi shows preach. Foothold is a great episode as well and tends to bring the sgc some trouble later on in the series. It's truly tough to choose the best episode for any stargate series as pretty much all shows are great.

For the technical aspects

The show has improved on their transfers for the video and added a great bit more extras! The audio is still amazing with its 5.1 audio. Season 3 is an amazing season and well enough reading the review just watch the season and enjoy!
