| Season 1 provides Stargate loves with new exciting villians! I was still sad to watch Stargate Atlantis knowing that Stargate SG-1 would soon be over but it was really excellent to know that the spin off had awesome scene's and villians. |

"The series is great! The merchandise wasn't..." | 2008-06-26 |

I think the Stargate series (both Atlantis and SG-1) are great. I already had seasons 1-10 for SG-1 and had watched all of the dvd's several times. So I decided to get the season 1 of the Atlantis shows. I purchased the box set from iNetvideo along with other dvd merchandise from other sellers. iNetvideo's shipment was delivered within a couple of days prior to the the deadline date. And the shipment arrived more than week after I had already received the merchandise from the other sellers eventhough the same shipping method was used.
After inspecting the merchandise and playing only the first dvd, I did gave an excellent seller's feedback. When I finally was ready to play the 5th and last dvd I instantly realized that something was wrong. The exact same episodes that are on Disk 1 Volume 1 were on Disk 5 Volume 1. I removed the dvd from the player and looked at the label - the label said Disk 5 Volume 1. I read the DVD case cover and it listed the episodes that were suppose to be on that disk but were not.
Now, how one dvd can get mislabeled and placed into a 2005 box set without a massive recall because other customers experienced the same problem is strange to say the least. My girl friend and I have order quite of few dvd through Amazon's website and this is the first time there has been a problem. I removed the feedback that I had previously give and contacted the seller via the Amazon website about this defect.
After two and no response from the seller, I contacted Amazon. They quickly responded and taking care of the situation with their A-Z guarantee. Meanwhile, I have download the last 4 episodes using Amazon's Unbox feature. I want to view these esipodes and found out what happens. I really like this series - it's as good as SG-1. Great originality in the storylines. There's actiion, humor and sometimes a tear jerker (my girl friend, of course). The characters every once in awhile make a comment about Star Trek (in a good way - I like Star Trek, too).
After I am refunded, I'll be returning the box set to the seller and will probably just download the rest the season 1. Lesson learned - watch all the dvd's before giving a seller's rating. I'll be purchasing season 4 but not from this seller regardless of what their prices are. |

Well, I *wanted* to like it, really I did. The effects were gorgeous, the premise wonderful... the writing abysmal, and the acting about 50-50. And when I say 50-50, I don't mean average; I mean 50% excellent and 50% forehead-slappingly bad.
If you loved the original series... you can watch this, but don't expect the same high quality, competence or intelligence. The writers are evidently rehashing old sci-fi standard plots, one at a time, without comprehending the basic premise behind the originals. I'm afraid we were yelling at the TV in disgust at one point. Writing characters who wouldn't be able to survive due to being too dumb to live on this world does not make me believe in their ability to make it on another.
It does get better, a little. If you can sit through the worst of it in the beginning they start to manage a couple better episodes towards the end. Now, if we can just some up with a way to assassinate that idiotic commander chick, it might all turn out ok. (I can only blame so much of her character on the writers having no clue of the leadership qualities necessary to run a remote scientific/military outpost. The rest is just bad acting.) |

| When I watch television I do so to escape. I'm annoyed with all the reality shows and do not find them entertaining. I much prefer escaping to the Pegasus Galaxy for an hour or so. The writing for the Stargate Franchise is still strong. I hope they continue for many many years. Atlantis is my favorite so far, even with life-sucking aliens at every turn. The Atlantis characters are all well written and the actors are portraying them are awesome. Keep the awesome episodes coming! |
