| | Professional Reviews | The DVD Report 9 of 10 A sequel to the 1994 movie Stargate, Stargate SG-1 is one of the premiere science-fiction series on television...The Stargate SG-1 DVD (Season 1) features a number of exciting episodes including the series premiere "Children of the Gods" in which the System Lord Apophis launches an attack via the stargate, hidden by Earth's military following the events of the original film. - Britt Gillette DigitallyObsessed.com 8 of 10 The cast takes the material seriously, with surprisingly good work by Richard Dean Anderson, who successfully leaves his MacGuyver days behind him (putting William Shatner to shame in the process). Some episodes rely too much on Stargate travel as a substitute for "beaming down," but the best episodes grow naturally out of the concept, and towards the end of this first season the show hits a fairly consistent stride. - Dale Dobson
