News on SGA season 2 DVD set (US)

[wraithfodder]

Is the federal government behind its release?

I only ask this because, yet again, the season 2 DVD set of Stargate Atlantis, once said to be released in January 2007, is now pushed back to March 6, 2007. Crap, I'm not sure if I believe this is a firm date anymore. Sorta like, I'll believe this set is coming out when I have it clutched in my fingers! ;)

But, check out http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=6672 for the full details of episodes on each disc (well, the entire 2nd season) plus commentaries. I still don't why they've got SG1 folks doing commentary on SGA episodes. I don't recall SGA actors commenting on SG1.

Anyway, big thanks to the above site for keeping us poor fans informed.

It came it in Australia at the end of November. All hail the code-free DVD player! *bows down in worship*

Wow, David is doing commentary on EIGHT episodes! That's really above and beyond the call of duty. Joe is doing three--most of the SG1 stars have done only one or two each year.

I also don't much care for Peter DeLuise and Gary Jones doing commentary, since they act like a couple of 15-year-old boys. But, since we've heard that they don't pay the actors or directors to do any of these commentaries, I guess it's just whoever wants to take the time and has the inclination to do it.

Unless I missed it, Rachel and Torri only comment on one episode each and Jason none at all. It would be interesting to know if they weren't asked, if they weren't interested, or if they are just shy (which might be the case with Jason).

Gah. It annoys me too. It's also weird that they don't have that "Road To A Dream" thing with Martin Gero. I don't really care though, because I saw it, and he complains the WHOLE time. He had a nice conversation with Torri and with Joe on set, but that's the only reason I'd watch it. Thought it was a big waste of time to watch.

I still don't why they've got SG1 folks doing commentary on SGA episodes.

My impression is that Gary Jones spends so much time with his nose up DeLuise's ass that it's easier to just bring him to the commentary tapings than it would be to have him removed like a barnacle.
