The 1994 movie Stargate was originally intended as the start of a franchise, but creators Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin were distracted with Independence Day. Episodic TV treatment was the natural next step. Replacing the roles of Colonel Jack O'Neill (Kurt Russell) and Dr. Daniel Jackson (James Spader) are, respectively, Richard Dean Anderson and Michael Shanks. They're joined by Captain Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping) and former alien baddie Teal'c (Christopher Judge) to form the 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' pharaonic Goa'uld--the ancient Egyptian gods from 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. Amid a plethora of derivative look-alikes, Stargate SG-1 has held its own with stories that put the science fiction back into TV sci-fi.
Among the second season's 22 episodes, 'The Serpent's Lair' concludes the cliffhanger from the end of the first season in a rollercoaster of wit, plot twists, and cutting-edge special effects as the SG-1 team resign themselves to a suicide mission. In the two-parter 'The Tok'ra,' 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. In 'Show and Tell,' the central story arc takes a dramatic turn when a child arrives to warn that some survivors of a Goa'uld attack are determined to eliminate anyone who might host their enemy--which means Earth as a whole. There's great fun to be had in '1969,' with a time-travel plot that loops many aspects of the show's story lines together, and the cliffhanger finale, 'Out of Mind,' has Jack experience an Aliens-style awakening 79 years into his future. --Paul Tonks

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - SIMPLE THE BEST!
I AM A HUGE STARGATE FAN. I WAS SO SORRY WHEN IT ENDED BUT NOW I CAN LOOK AT THE SHOW ANYTIME I WANT AND I AM GOING TO GET EVERY SEASON.
Rating:  - Not the best season of SG1
Not my favorite season of SG1. The plot takes some ridiculous digressions.
That said, it is the season we meet the Tok'Ra, Linnea, and Jacob Carter.
My favorite episode of this season is The Fifth Race, where O'Neil accidentally has all the knowledge of the ancients downloaded into his brain. This has the brilliant combination of comedy and seriousness that we have come to love in this series.
If you love SG1 you will continue to love it through this season, but don't look for the greatness of other seasons here.
Rating: - best of the 10
For those fans that came into the show kind of late, I think this season signifies just how much the team really means to one another and what they go through on a daily basis. Season 1 may have began the series, but this is where the show really gets going and explains about some of the bigger issues for all the main characters and the supporting cast. Fans who had seen the later seasons need to watch the core of the show and that begins with the first half of the series and the first 2 seasons. Like any fan, I think that they shouldn't have canceled the show and kept it going, but at the least the movies tied up the loose ends. buy this season you won't be disappointed.
Rating:  - Great series
Especially if you like Richard Dean Anderson's sarcasm! Seller got these to me in less than a week. I would order from them again
Rating: - Why yes, I understand you perfectly!
Fun series. Wish they would explain why everyone after the first couple of episodes speaks English.
