Summary: One of the best si-fi shows out there
Review: For those of you (me) who missed it the first time around (on the si-fi channel), this series is a must have, it expands on the shoddy movie and takes the genera of science fiction to unprecedented levels of excellence. I just bought season one, and am drooling to have the other 11. :-) Cast your vote now so that those wonderful -cough- we've waited long enough -cough- MGM folks will realize their error and make this happen!

Summary: The best season, no doubt about it!
Review: Although it's hard for a Stargate SG-1 fan like me to choose, I'd still have to say that season 2 is definitely the best season I've seen so far. With episodes that are funny, intriguing, and introducing a whole variety of new characters and races, this season is hard to beat.
If you're new to Stargate SG-1, I'd suggest getting season 1 first, as it'll clear up many of the plotlines for you. Nonetheless, I watched season 2 first, and only after that went on to season 1. Season 1 only explains details that might be go for you to know in season 2.
As extras go, nothing much can be said. A couple of short featurettes that leave you wanting more, but nothing fancy. But then again, there's plenty to enjoy with just the episodes.

Summary: Continuing excellence
Review: Excellent continuation of the SG-1 team's adventures. Season two and three are my favorites: 2 for the stories, 3 for the visuals. You can't go wrong with either season!

Summary: SG-1 is great!
Review: SG-1 is a great show. This show is better than other SciFi on TV for two main reasons (and a myriad of smaller ones): 1) a great cast who make you believe that they really do care about each other and what happens to their characters and 2) the stories are set in the present without altering reality outside the "series universe" more than necessary. This lends an authenticity to the show that gives it more grit and brings you into the stories deeper than if the story were set as pure fantasy. The military setting also gives added tension.
Season two has some great episodes including "In the Line of Duty" which adds to the mythology for the rest of SG-1. The season finale leading into season 3 will have you on the edge of your seat! This is a must buy for SG-1 fans.

Summary: Stargate comes out swining and nails it out of the park!
Review: Incredible follow up to its debut season. Every episode continues to build on a incredible legacy that Stargate SG-1 has now formed. Nearly all of the episodes in season 2 are worth watching with barely none making you ask yourself "what were the writers thinking?."Episodes like "The Fifth Race" and "A Matter of Time" are incredibly original and enjoyable to watch. "1969" is a time travel story with a twist and one of the most memorable of the season. For a show in its second season it did extremely well compared to some star trek shows' whose second season's were an incredible bore at times. The only gripe I have is about the packaging i wouldn't have minded paying a little more for some fancier packaging and special features. Otherwise...Awesome Show!...Great Price!...A Classic in the Making!

Summary: Best of the Series
Review: I love every season of SG1, but season 2 was hands down the best. The thing that makes SG1 better than all other SciFi is continuity. The story lines are far reaching and many of the best story lines started in Season. In fact, I am looking at the episodes of season 2 and I believe every single on is contunued or refered to in future episodes. What an amazing series from just an OK movie.

Summary: The Series Takes Off
Review: The first season of Stargate: SG-1 was very good. It had good stories, but it also had great potential to become something better. Season 2 has begun to realize said potential. Many of the episodes this season expanded on ideas and arcs from the first season, as well as introducing new ideas, characters, and locations. For example, we meet Thor (in his true form), as well as some of the other Asguard, a powerful alliance with the Tok'Ra is formed, the NID storyline is taken in new directions, and we learn about the builders of the Stargate system as well as the origins of the intergalactic U.N. from the first season episode, "The Torment of Tantalus". We also meet some new Goa'uld system lords, as well as see the destruction of an old enemy.
The actors (Richard Dean Anderson, Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, Don S. Davis, and Teryl Rohtery) all grew in their roles as Col. Jack O'Neill, Dr. Daniel Jackson, Capt. Sam Carter, Teal'c, Gen. George Hammond, and Dr. Janet Frasier. Not only did they prove their worth as their own characters, some of them got the chance to play others as well in the episode, "Holdiay". I'm sure that Judge liked that one because he got to play O'Neill, who is Teal'c's polar opposite.
The storylines were improved this year (not that they were bad last year), with some great examples being: "The Serpent's Lair", "In the Line of Duty", "Prisoners", "Thor's Chariot", "Secrets", "The Tok'Ra, Pts. 1 and 2", "Spirits", "Touchstone", "A Matter of Time", "The Fifth Race", "Serpent's Song", "Holiday", "1969", and "Out of Mind". There were a few groaners, such as "One False Step", but overall, this was an awesome season.
