stargate season 3 box set

fab stuff, can't wait to buy the other box sets...

The best season yet

I wondered exactly how the SG-1 producers could possibly top season 6. Well, I was simply blown away.

I have been a huge fan since the very beginning of the show and this is one that gets better in each season. The opening 2 episodes deal with the return of Dr (Daniel) Jackson, last seen in the season 6 climax when he broke the rules and attempted to destroy Anubis with his ancient powers. The show usually begins with an action packed double-episode and this is by far the best one yet. You get the usually"random planet" exploration and its good to see an episode that doesnt seem important at first, suddenly tie in with a later plot based episode.

In the middle of the series, we are treated to another double episode that sees the introduction of a new foe; the Anubis super soldier. Encased in a bullet-proof, energy absorbing suit and possesing super-human strength and endurance, can the team possibly find a way to defeat the genetically enhanced soldiers before they wipe out everything? their only apparent weakness is a low life-span caused by having out of proportion organs that are unsustanable.

The whole thing reaches an explosive conclusion in another 2 part episode that sees O'Niell once again get exposed to an Ancient repository (a library that downloads all of its information into the recipients brain) in order to find a way to repel the inevitable attack by Anubis against Earth...but unable to contact the Asgard, can they find a way to prevent O'Niell from being killed as his mind is over-written by the vast ancient knowledge, as well as find a way to stop Anubis himself?

Buy this now if you never saw the series on SkyOne.

mmmmmmmmmore gatey goodness

Reaching again to the most protected and child-proof shelf in the house, I pull down SG1 series 2. In reality, this box set is another brilliant masterpiece, featuring one of my all-time fave episodes, '1969'. This, fortunately, is a good thing, because we too live in reality along with those things that help us get along with our lives. Money cannot make us happy, but it sure as hell helps to. This series is a brilliant follow-on to SG1 series 1, and has a lot more digitised visuals in there, as I'm sure they got a fatter budget when they realised that this whole thing was a hit! Woo-boy it was a hit! Don't forget that damage to the bladder is not the director's, DVD maker's or distributor's, or amazon's fault. Just don't hit 'play all' and you'll be fine!!
