A sequel to the 1994 movie Stargate, Stargate SG-1 is one of the premiere science-fiction series on television. First airing in July 1997, the show has been nominated for 7 Emmys and 23 Saturn Awards. The brainchild of creator Dean Devlin, producer of such Hollywood blockbusters as Independence Day (1996) and The Patriot (2000), Stargate SG-1 chronicles the further adventures of the Stargate Command (SGC) as Earth and its citizens advance forward into a new era of space exploration in the aftermath of Dr. Daniel Jackson’s discovery of the galaxy’s numerous stargatesÂ…

Stargate SG-1 follows the exploits of the SG-1 Unit (i.e. the “explorer” unit) of Stargate Command. When a new code is broken that reveals the location of stargates throughout the galaxy, Earth and its inhabitants are given the ability to travel through time to any point they wish instantaneously. Earth’s military sends out stargate (SG) teams to scour the universe for new technologies, new planets, and methods of defense against the oppressive Goa’uld. Brigadier General Jonathan “Jack” O’Neill (Richard Dean Anderson) is the commanding officer of SG-1. He’s accompanied by Dr. Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), the brilliant professor whose investigations originally helped uncover the existence of the stargates, and fellow teammates Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping) and Teal’c (Christopher Judge). Together, they face numerous obstacles as they attempt to uncover the many mysteries of the universeÂ…

The Stargate SG-1 (Season 6) DVD features a number of exciting episodes including the season premiere “Redemption” in which the Earth comes under attack from Anubis. Using a device that allows him to destroy one stargate using another, the planet is once again threatened by the Goa’uld. Meanwhile, Teal’c is away from Earth attending his wife’s funeral. His son believes she would still be alive had Teal’c not joined the fight against the Goa’uld. He asks Teal’c to let him join him in battle so that he can see firsthand that the Goa’uld are not godsÂ… Other notable episodes from Season 6 include “Shadow Play” in which SG-1 encounters Jonas’ old mentor who hallucinates an entire underground resistance, and “Prophecy” in which Jona has visions of the future where Lord Maat annihilates SG-1Â…

It was one of those chance meetings between two atoms tossed hither and thither in the whirligig of life; for the peddler, shrewd, calculating and unscrupulous, was wandering along the Acadian shores driving hard bargains in small wares; and the Indian, like his race, fond of a roaming life, was drifting about the bay in a small sloop he owned, fishing where he would, hunting when he chose, stoppi…
