DVD Reviews of Stargate SG-1 Season 3 (Thinpak)

DVD Review: 3rd season great
Summary: 5 Stars

I feel that in the 3rd season everyone involved really hit his stride. So far it was the best season yet.

DVD Review: Stargate SG-1 Season 3
Summary: 4 Stars

The DVDs are in perfect condition, but the DVD case leaves something to be desired...I'm a little concerned I'm going to end up scratching the DVDs anyway because one of the prongs that is supposed to hold the DVD in place doesn't work very well, so both DVDs in that volume fall out every time I open up the case. There are two other cases in the thinpak, and they are fine. This might just be why you pay less for a thinpak.

DVD Review: Thoroughly Enjoyed
Summary: 5 Stars

I thoroughly enjoyed season 3 as much as all of the other seasons. It's now a part of our collection.

DVD Review: Stargate SG-1 Season 3 (Thinpak)
Summary: 4 Stars

The overall presentation of the carton containing the product is very nice and SIFI looking. The disc's were nicely protected and all were in excellent condition. Of course the series is what I expected with one small issue. During all the discs play at least one or two shows would have a hang, lag or glitch. The frame would freeze for just about a second. There were no cuts or blemishes on the disc.

DVD Review: Great series; poor DVD quality
Summary: 1 Stars

Stargate SG-1 is a great series (at least until Rick Anderson got bored in the later seasons) and would be a welcome addition to any science fiction aficionado's collection. Therefore, I eagerly ordered the first three seasons in the "Thinpak" edition from Amazon only to find that each of the seasons included episodes that pixelated and or were otherwise unwatchable (e.g., no sound for one of the characters or, in one case, a disk that would not even load). I reported the situation to Amazon and they promptly sent me replacements for all three seasons. Unfortunately, the same disks had the same problems in the replacement sets. I reported the situation to Amazon again, and received (in part) the following reply:

"As it seems that the problem with this item is more widespread than we originally thought, we are not able to send another replacement. We are returning the defective items to our suppliers. We will get new stock into our fulfillment centers with in few days. Hence I request you to place the order after few days for this item so that you may not face this inconvenience in future."

Caveat emptor.

Description of Stargate SG-1 Season 3 (Thinpak)

Studio: Tcfhe/mgm Release Date: 01/13/2009
To resolve the season 2 cliffhanger, General Hammond rounds up every conceivable ally to rescue the SG-1 team from Hathor's clutches and gets a much-needed field trip in the process. "Into the Fire " is actually a weak opening for the new year, but does boast some impressive visuals as Hammond and Brat'ac pilot a shuttle through an open Stargate (euphemistically called "threading the needle"). In subsequent episodes, Daniel Jackson is intrigued by the planet Orban's scientific advances over only a few years. An exchange of knowledge is agreed and the precise "Learning Curve" of their children is revealed. Still recalling the original movie, O'Neill is concerned for the siblings because of the loss of his son. In "Demons" some serious lambasting of organized religion occurs in a storyline concerning a medieval Christian village that's being terrorized by a giant Goa'uld servant creature. This episode both brings to light and questions each of the principal characters' beliefs.

"Forever in a Day" begins an important storyline about Daniel's wife Sha're's stolen child who is a "Harcesis," an illegal breeding between Goa'uld hosts. Then an earlier thread is picked up in "Past and Present" on planet Vyus whose people all suffer amnesia. Their leader Ke'ra (played by Megan Leitch who's portrayed Mulder's missing sister in The X-Files) is a link to the earlier "Prisoners" episode and the dangerous "destroyer of worlds". In a two-part cliffhanger, Sam must attempt to rescue her father, face Satan himself on a prison moon, and resurrect "Jolinar's Memories" from the Goa'uld she was briefly possessed by, then "The Devil You Know" reveals an embarrassing secret that could allow the team to escape the clutches of Satanic Sokar. "Pretense" is one of those sci-fi series staples as a character is put on trial to prove their guilt on behalf of another. "Urgo" expands the general sardonic humor with a little pathos for the guest appearance by Dom DeLuise. Lots of slapstick ensues.

"A Hundred Days" is the three months O'Neill 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. --Paul Tonks
