Summary: AMAZING SERIERS
Review: Probably the best I've seen in a long time.

Summary: Stargate SG-1 First Season
Review: With amazing sound, storys and visual efects, Stargate has become one of most interesting TV cults. It opens with an excelent first season. The episodes are a great combination of science and mithology. The stories are well adapted, with a good development of the characters through the series and excellent quality. Episodes such as Children of the Gods, The Enemy Within, The Nox, Thor`s Hammer, The Torment of Tantalus, Fire and Water, Hathor, There But For the Grace of God, and Within the Serpent's Grasp are shocking. The villains are great, although Apophis is defeated so many times, (reason why villains lose fans), his faliures in this season will lead to the opportunity to rule the largest military empire in the galaxy, (so do not laugh at him). Few series have begun with such a strong season. Won't regret it, buy it right now.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Loved the movie, love the series.
Review: I always enjoyed the movie Stargate, so I was glad to hear that Showtime planned to make a TV series of it. The special effects let me down at first, but not the acting or writing. Richard Dean Anderson is perfect for the part of Jack, so much so that it now seems strange seeing Kurt Russell in the part when I watch my DVD of the movie. The special effects budget for the series has obviously grown over time. So has the mythology. This show provides a showcase of many talented people (on both sides of the camera) and keeps building on the possibilities that past episodes have raised. If you like science fiction, this DVD set would be a great addition to your collection.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Correction: Set only includes Season 1
Review: (Correction: The 5-disc set includes all 22 episodes of season 1. It does not include season 2.)

Fantastic. I will wait impatiently for seasons 2-5 to come out on DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Bests Episodes
Review: These are the first and secong season episodes from the Stargate series. Anyone would could appreciate being a proud owner of this DVD set. You would get to know the cast and crew imtimately from the Behind-the-Scenes special, know the layout of the SGC better from when they take you around, and find out why everyone gets along on the show so well(Hint: they are like a family).

This set is truely a plus, especially since the sound and quality are A+.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Okay, it's not bad.
Review: Well the Stargate idea works a bit better as a TV show then it does a movie. The casting, writing, visual effects, production design, cinematograpghy, and types of stories that they do is not bad. In fact it works better then most any other science fiction Tv show I ever seen. Better then Alien Nation, X-Files, Galactica, V, Buck Rogers, Quantum Leap, the 70's Hulk TV show, the Six Million Dollar Man, and the more recent Outer Limits Tv show. Stargate is better then all of them.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Have the young ones skip the pilot episode
Review: My family and I have long watched Stargate SG-1 in syndication and on DVD (starting with season 4), so we decided to go back and watch them all from the beginning. We got a HUGE surprise when we encountered full frontal nudity in the pilot, and it wasn't just a passing scene. Enough people have lauded this series, which we still love, but please view the pilot before letting any children in your home see it.

Had there been a description of the content of the pilot included with the set, I would have given this set five stars. All the other sets are five-stars in my book!

The series does prompt some great discussions with the kids. There are clear distinctions between good and evil. The language gets spicier (more obscenity) as the seasons progress (probably from the origination on cable), but nothing beyond what our kids have heard in the neighborhood. That always gives us another opportunity to talk.

Enjoy the series!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you have issues with sound
Review: someone on boxed set of season 3 said they had an issue with sound. i had the same thing but i found out it was the sound settings of my dvd player. play around with the preset sounds: surround, 5.1, etc i found that "standard" setting or the DVDs default setting works the best.

If you buy season one, I strongly suggest getting Season 2 with it. Why? because the cliff hanger at the end of Season 1 will drive you nuts. The story lines of most of the episodes are good. Its neat to watch the actors slowly form their characters. You can see a strong transition between season 1 and 2.

When I first saw this series on tv, I didn't like it but after stumbling across it a few times it grew on me. All the actors did a fab job of transiting from movie screen to TV. I think the series actually is better than the orginal.



Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Stargate SG-1 is the Greatest Show SciFi show ever!
Review: Unlike many SciFi shows this show has the production value of many hollywood movies. If you are a scifi fan, Why do you not have this DVD set yet?
