If this five-disc, 20-episode, tenth season set really is the end of Stargate SG-1--and ... more
considering the number of reprieves the show has
already had and the rumours of various movie
spin-offs, not to mention the fact that the final
installment is entitled "Unending," who
knows?--then the folks responsible for this
durable sci-fi series can be proud that they
finished it off in style, with a run of episodes
that are for the most part highly entertaining,
exciting, and fun, offering resolution if not
complete closure. And if sharks were jumped, at
least they were small ones. As was the case in
Season 9, and to a large extent in Season 8 as
well, original series star Richard Dean Anderson
is little in evidence here. Portraying Lt. Col.
Cameron Mitchell, Ben Browder, who came to
Stargate SG-1 from the underrated Farscape, is now
entrenched as leader of SG-1, the Stargate
project's ace team in the field, joining series
veterans Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, and
Michael Shanks (as Samantha Carter, Teal'c, and
Daniel Jackson, respectively). Most notably,
fellow Farscape alum Claudia Black has an
ever-expanding role as Vala, whose cheeky wit and
irreverence bring a consistent spark to the
proceedings. The big, bad villains known as Ori
are back as well. We still can't see them--they
are, after all, "ascended beings," represented by
the blind, monk-like Priors, who roam the universe
intoning "Hallowed are the Ori" and ensuring that
all will submit to their will (the element of
scary religious fanaticism remains as relevant as
ever). But the Ori are also still the most
implacable, irresistible force our heroes have
ever encountered; nothing less than the fate of
the entire galaxy is at stake (again)! And now
there's an added twist: the Ori have a frontwoman,
if you will, whose powers make the Priors look
like well, monks. Known as Adria (or "the Orici"
to believers), this beautiful young woman (played
by Morena Baccarin) also happens to be the
daughter of Vala, whom the Ori chose to bring
their demon seed into the world; the uneasy (to
say the least) Adria-Vala relationship provides
many intriguing moments. On the minus side, the
show tends to break its own rules (for instance,
for a character who's supposed to be invincible,
Adria often seems awfully, well, vincible), and
the co-mingling of Arthurian legend, Greek, Roman,
and Egyptian myth, magic, and other sources is
occasionally over-the-top, even for this
franchise. Some episodes are plot-heavy, bogged
down by too many characters (past bad guys like
the Goa'uld, and Ba'al reappear, as do several
Stargate Atlantis leads in one episode) or
excessive techno-rap about time dilation fields,
flux capacitors, and something called the Clava
Thessara Infinitas (don't ask). Episodes in which
the writers move away from the central Ori theme
are less than stellar; "200" exists mostly as an
opportunity to make fun of the TV business and is
as irrelevant and silly as "Citizen Joe," the
worst episode from Season 8. And finally, without
revealing details, suffice to say that "Unending,"
which offers a possible fate for our heroes before
totally pulling its punches, may frustrate some
longtime adherents. By and large, though, Stargate
SG-1 has all the elements--humour, action, great
effects, good story-telling and acting, characters
you care about--to more than justify its ten-year
run. It will be missed. Special features are again
bountiful, including audio commentary on all
episodes, various featurettes, and five "directors
series" entries devoted to particular episodes.

Stargate S.G -1: Season 3 (Vol. 12)  [1998] Stargate S.G -1: Season 3 (Vol. 12) [1998]
The 1994 movie Stargate was originally intended as the start of a franchise, but creators ... more
Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin were distracted
celebrating their Independence Day. Episodic TV
treatment was the natural next step. In the roles
of Colonel Jack O'Neill and Dr Daniel Jackson
respectively are Richard Dean Anderson and Michael
Shanks. They're joined by Captain Samantha Carter
(Amanda Tapping) and guilt-stricken former alien
baddie Teal'c (Christopher Judge) to form the
teacher's pet primary unit SG-1.  With a seemingly
endless network of Stargates found to exist on
planets all across the known universe, their
mission is to make first contact with as many
friendly races as possible. Chasing their heels at
almost every turn are the "overlord" Goa'uld--the
ancient Egyptian Gods who are none too chummy
after the events of the original film. The welcome
notion of a continued plot thread sees offshoots
that follow the reincarnation of Daniel's wife,
Sam's father literally joining a renegade faction
of the Goa'uld and Jack in an unending quest to
out-sarcasm everyone. There's something of The
Time Tunnel to the show's premise, but amid a
dearth of derivative look-a-likes, Stargate has
held its own with stories that put the science
fiction back into TV sci-fi. --Paul Tonks On this
DVD: the first two episodes of this volume
spotlight O'Neill. "A Hundred Days" is the three
months he spends stranded on planet Edora by the
fire rain of a passing asteroid belt. Then in
"Shades of Grey" he appears to suffer a total
personality switch when he steals technology from
the Tollan and is insubordinate in the extreme.
Both these are terrific concepts but are scarcely
enough story to have stretched across more than
one episode. A little more teamwork is required to
break "New Ground" on a planet fighting a war of
ideology. Finally, the storyline concerning the
Harcesis child from Volume 10 elicits a "Maternal
Instinct" in Daniel after the discovery of
mystical planet Kheb. But ultimately his agenda
only brings them more trouble. As well a trailer
for the next volume, the disc includes a
nine-minute interview with Michael Shanks on his
character of anthropologist Dr Daniel Jackson. He
reveals his acting career was inspired by Richard
Dean Anderson. There's also seven minutes with
production designer Richard Hudolin explaining how
the on-location Stargate takes an entire day to
set up. --Paul Tonks

Review of Stargate S.G. 1 - Series 2 - Complete DVD by crysis

Advantages: Inspirational
Disadvantages: Expencive

Stargate is without a shaow of a dout one of the best Sci-fi series ever created. Unlike the first season where the series was trying to create a credible storyline from the film, season two moves away from that and really show the viewer what stargate is really about. In season two a new race of alience is intruduced which is going to play important parts in the other seasons, apart from loads of other exiting new developments. Everything is based ... Read review
