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

5 out of 5 stars As expected, but go for thinpak when available   November 18, 2008
This is obviously a series, so I won't both to review the show - you either like it and you need Season 3, or you don't belong here. As for the item itself? It's just like the other Stargate SG-1 boxed sets, very little to no extra features are included. I purchased this set instead of the "Thinpak" set, because it was cheaper. When you can, go for the thinpak. The difference is this set is just like regular dvd cases in a box, where as the thinpak uses the ultra slimline dvd cases and the entire box is about 1/4 the size of this one.


3 out of 5 stars one of the best   September 25, 2008
this is one of the best tv shows ever; the costumes and stories are great,
unfortunately (for me) the dvd doesn't have captions.



5 out of 5 stars Love this DVD set!   July 3, 2008
It is everything I expected. I love season 3 of Stargate SG1 and I have been watching Star Gate SG1 since it first aired over 10 years ago. I plan to buy the whole series one season at a time. I already have Season's 1 and 2. This is one of my all time favorite series besides the whole Star Trek franchise.
