Amazon.co.uk Review

The 1994 movie Stargate was originally intended as the start of a franchise, but creators Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin were distracted celebrating their Independence Day. Episodic TV treatment was the natural next step. Since neither Kurt Russell nor James Spader would be able to commit, it gave the producers licence to tinker with the cast and the universe they'd explore. Replacing 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" pharaohnic 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.

Returning to the planet from the original Stargate movie, Daniel catches up with his lost wife and painfully discovers her "Secrets". Teal'c gets stung by a giant insect in "Bane", and O'Neill is crippled in "Spirits". The best is saved to last on this volume in "The Tok'ra (Part I)". Sam's estranged father is dying of cancer, but her obligations sway her toward saving a member of the Goa'uld renegade Tok'ra who is also dying. Although the resolution may seem apparent a mile off, the series takes one of many brave steps in not chickening-out at the last moment. --Paul Tonks

5.0 out of 5 stars Three goodies and one a little wishy-washy, 28 Oct 2000

By A Customer

Stargate SG-1 is a worthy successor to the Star Trek series, more reminiscent of the old Star Trek rather than The Next Generation. There is an emphasis on humor, action, optimism, and scientific consistency.

This disk contains three excellent episodes ("Secrets," "Bane" and "The Tok'Ra (Part I)"), and the mystic-primitives-know-best "Spirits". I personally grow a little weary of the Romantic Savage storyline that comes out of Hollywood--you know the one: the people living in simplicity are much happier and living in tune with their environment until some modern people turn up with our evil technology. I just wish the writers would forget Rousseau and remember Hobbes. Most people in our modern society live longer, healthier lives than ever, thanks to our technology.

Despite this handicap, "Spirits" has redeeming features that make it worth watching, and it becomes important in several later episodes, so it is a must watch for those hooked on the series.

Enjoy! I did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool!, 5 Aug 2002

By	D. K. P. Watson "dkpw" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I agree with Chris from Australia who provided the original review. All of the episodes on this DVD are great, with the weakest being "Spirits." Nonetheless it still maintains the high production values and entertainment of the majority of the SG1 episodes.

"Bane" features some fine acting from Christopher Judge as Teal'c, who will never look at a wasp in the same way again! An excellent stand-alone epiosode. "Secrets" carries on the story from the movie, where Daniel Jackson meets up with his wife and has an emotional time.

In "The Tok'ra (Part I)" Sam's dying father makes an appearance as do an opposition force to the Goa'uld. Some fine acting from Amanda Tapping as Captain Carter easily makes this the best episode on the DVD. Of course the next step in the plot is obvious BUT to find out what happens next you need to get hold of the next DVD in the series! Very annoying when you don't have it!

A recommended DVD for SG1 newbies as you get to meet all the characters in the team as they feature in one or other of the episodes; O'Neill in all but "Spirits", Carter in "Tok'Ra", Teal'c in "Bane", and Jackson in "Secrets". The episodes combine drama, tension, humour and wit. After watching this DVD a couple of times you feel you have got to know the team. Great stuff.
