Stargate Universe Complete Final Season DVD Review
Fans of Stargate Universe are likely to want to buy the Complete Final Season DVD set (Season 2) for their collection, just to watch the special features and listen to the commentary, although having the ability to watch commercial free episodes of the series anytime is also a great reason to buy.
Stargate Universe: The Complete Final Season
Season 2, the final season of Stargate Universe, showed a distinct growth in story and character for the series. Each episode showed how far the series had come since the beginning. Although retaining many of the character driven aspects, the writers of the show made leaps in how they integrated those character moments into a broader range of episode types and incorporated more story driven action adventure elements that made watching much more fun and exciting.
Since the beginning, the SGU series has grown into something worth spending your time on, something you could watch and enjoy and rewatch for pleasure.
There are plenty of good reasons why you should buy the SGU season 2 on DVD, including the simple reason that it’s a good collection of episodes of one of the best science fiction franchises to ever grace a television screen.
Other reasons include a great number of special features and commentaries for every episode (see below for a detailed list), guest appearances from SG-1 and Atlantis characters, an excellent selection of action-adventure episodes and episodes where we finally really begin to connect with the people of Destiny, and compelling story arcs that make watching season 2 a real joy.
The special features / extras included in the Stargate Universe DVD set range from informational and interesting to humorous and fun.
