One of my all time favorite sci-fi series: certainly season 2 continues the greatness of season one may even add additional character development and subplots. Between the positive role modeled relationships and the noble modern ideals this entertainment is light years better than any of the TV shows that are available now. This increasingly rare DVD works well and displays well in a DVD player in a computer.

Here's the deal. If you are looking at the second box set in the Stargate SG1 series then you probably have the first one and thus you don't need me to tell you how good it is. So quit reading reviews and buy it already. Damn, what are you trying to do? Justify your purchase? Chill out, you know what a great series it is already. So quit crying. Though if you don't have the first set and are interested in a fun Sci-Fi adventure then I'd recommend buying the first set then of course coming back to buy the second set. Stargate SG1 season 2 picks up with the conclusion of the epic season one finale and takes off from there. The Stargate series follows the adventure of the SG1 teams four members going through the stargate to other worlds light years away. Richard Dean Anderson, Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping, and Christopher Judge all make their characters to life and make them unforgettable. If you like Star Trek, Battle Star Galactica, or just Sci-Fi in general then this series is a must. Though I warn you, you'll be watching for a while as of August 2006 Stargate SG1 has started it's 10th season.Read full review
To start with I guess you'd say I wasn't a follower of the Stargate series, however, once I really got into watching a few of the shows I got hooked. It's not so much the type of story line, it's more towards the dry wit and humor in each episode. The dead pan expression of characters as they deliver their stingers to Jack's total loss at anything technical. The interaction of all involved works with very little effort and they actually look like they're having fun at it too. I missed several episodes and wanted to watch them all in order and without commercials. For just a fleeting moment you can actually lose yourself in the Stargate and relax and collect yourself for another day in reality, it is a refreshing way to ease off the tension of the day. So, go ahead and laugh or just shake your head at the blank expression Jack has as Carter talks to him about Astrophysics, or Daniel about ancient civilizations, you won't be disappointed.Read full review
This is a wonderful series. The Stargate SG-1 story-line and characters are very interesting. You can't help but want to watch all the episodes. I bought this for my son for Christmas. He had already recieved the giftset for SEASON 1 and was really wanting Season 2. This was a great buy. The whole family has enjoyed it. If you like Sci-Fi, this is one of the best storylines I have ever watched. Excellent writers. Excellent characters. No foul language or nudity makes this rely on high quality writing. Its not another soap-opera. It keeps your attention.
Let's get down to brass tacks. There will be a copy of this same review for every season since I bought the complete 8 season set. (I also just just bought SG Atlantis Season 1.) ALL the seasons, transfers, and everything connected with this series are strictly FIRST RATE! DVD picture is far better than the average TV broadcast. In most cases you may find that the sound is noticeably better than you've heard it on TV also. This is simply one of the FINEST SERIES EVER! Pure FUN. Pure ENTERTAINMENT! Own it... Trust me! (I've never lied to you, have I?)
My hubby is into Startrek TOS, Startrek TNG, Startrek Voyager, Stargate, Star Wars (See a pattern?) Eureka (Whoa- finally something without the word "Star")& a few other sci-fi's. I got this for his birthday- I'm tring to finish the collection he started. He was thrilled! His privious wife would get him silly watches & stuff he really wasn't interested in- which I will eventually get around to putting up on- eBay! (go figure!:) It was great to see him so happy! It was a true "Gift Set" Thanks!
The story lines are very creative and engaging. The actors work well together to emphasize each individual characters.

What am I supposed to review? The physical discs I purchased, or the content that should be on them? I love the Stargate stories - I have watched them all before, and am happy to "own" a copy. But, this particular copy was somewhat scratched and would not play some episodes in any of my DVD players (computers included).

Even though I wrote 2 episodes of this second season of Stargate, I would recommend this box set anyway. The series started as little more than an extension of the movie, but by the second season the characters and battles took off with a life of their own. Richard Dean Anderson was great to work with and the quality that he brought to the series started to really emerge in season 2. Enjoy what is now a sci-fi classic!
