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. 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

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent contribution to the SG1 series, 27 May 2001
By A Customer
Being an SG1 fan it's hard to be too objective but I have to say although the first season had the odd not so good episode, since then it's come on leaps and bounds. The first episode on this DVD 'A Hundred Days' is not an action packed episode but more of an O'Neill character build but does give insights in to Carter's feelings towards him. The second 'Shades of Grey' is one of my all time favoutites where O'Neill turns traitor - won't spoil it for you. Next up is 'new Ground' which is where SG1 get captured and have to deal with how they impact the beliefs of humans on another planet. Finally we have 'Maternal Extinct' which sees the return of Braytac to assist SG1 is finding the Harsesis child. Daniel wants to get him to Earth before Apophis gets his hands on him. Frankly even if the episodes were totally rubbish, they'd still be good - with scripts, stories and acting like this, roll over Star Trek and play dead because your time is up.
