Daniel led SG-1?

My SG-1 Season 10 DVDs just arrived!!! Has anyone else read the back blurbage? It says:

"And now, in Season 10, the team, led by Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), embarks on their ultimate adventure."

I know that some people think Michael Shanks and Ben Browder look a lot alike but that's odd. And the cover stars Sam's breasts. Sometimes it's good to be reminded why it was time to call it quits on the show. :|

Oh, I'm definitely a HUGE Daniel fan and I'm not sorry to see him mentioned -- but I'd rather that they had people who watch the show write the copy. I'd also like to see all of the team acknowledged in an accurate manner.

Don't get me started on the front photo. I hate, hate, hate that they posed Sam like a Barbie doll. Just imagine how ridiculous it would look if Teal'c were posed like that. Or Cameron. Or Daniel. It's insulting.

I"m excited to see the extras -- and I'm peeved over the ad that promises me "never before released extras" if I re-buy all ten seasons in the huge multipack coming out some time in the future. :|

I know. Wasn't there five members of this team for over half the season? I seem to remember another girl. :-p

I don't really care too much about the cover because it's just going to sit in a shelf in my closet against the wall and S9, so...

There's TWO 200 commentaries! And a behind the scenes! And and...whee!

Amazon's selling the series set for $210...but still...no. I'm thinking of writing MGM and asking for them to stick them on the movie disks too. I love how they advertise the movie set INSIDE the S10 dvd. Snerk. Well I guess not everyone is pathe...er, devoted enough to have bought them all already. heh.

I'm almost done my work stuff so I can go play with it.

Two women? What sort of toads are you licking over there? ;)

It's true that the slip covers don't matter as much as the content of DVDs themselves but I tend to bristle over yet another stunning example of the ignorance of gender issues in the Stargate SG-1 franchise. *sigh*

I can hardly wait to explore the DVDs, myself. It'll make a nice diversion from today's sober chore of picking up my little dog's ashes.

AW! Then you need the diversion and lots and lots of chocolate.

It's losing a family member. My condolences. :-(

Thanks. He's been gone for about a week and half. There's still a hole in our lives but we have a second dog and he has helped a lot. It was definitely losing a family member. Luckily, he was a rescue dog so we've had a lot of support from the rescue folks. *hugs*
