STARGATE ATLANTIS {2nd. Season} (DVD Review) - 8/9/06

A friend of mine Mr. Periwinkle doesn't like this spin-off from "Stargate SG-1" as he isn't happy with the characters and thinks the stories are poo - Strangely enough though my other friend Franky The Squirrel loves both "Stargate Atlantis" and the original - Much like I do! It's a pity of course that the stupid men in suits have now cancelled "Stargate SG-1" with some silly spurious excuse - So no Season Eleven! But I sure that won't stop them from wringing every penny they can out of the franchise in whatever manner they see fit? Anyway, having missed Episode 2.16. on the goggle box I got the stand alone Season 2 - Vol. 4 - Episodes 13 to 16 on single disc DVD. I hate missing episodes in a series when something vital might happen? Franky The Squirrel said it doesn't matter - But I caught him out with an episode about time travel which affected the later storyline - So yes, continuity does matter! This disc comes with a nice slew of Special Features with Audio Commentaries on all 4 episodes, 2 Featurettes covering Stunts and the character of Ronon Dex with some Production Design and a Photo's Gallery. How these Special Features stack up against the box sets of the full seasons I don't know as I've never purchased any? But I've still a missing episode from "Stargate Atlantis" Season 1 to catch up with and one from "Stargate SG-1" Season 9 as well - So more reportage when I find them.
