As I've mentioned before, I watch most of the TV shows I see on DVD, thereby skipping the commercials and allowing me to watch episodes at my own pace (and it's nothing for me to watch an entire season of something like Buffy the Vampire Slayer in a two- or three-day period). Last week, I got tempted by the price tag of the first two seasons of Stargate SG-1, and over the course of the next few days, I watched both seasons in their entirety.
Prior to buying the first two seasons, I was only familiar with the original pilot episode of the series, which I saw a good six or seven years ago. If not for Wal-Mart tempting me, I might have gone for a few more years without seeing any more of SG-1. I'm not sure that necessarily would have been a bad thing, as the first two seasons (I can't speak for the following eight seasons) are littered with as many poor episodes as good ones. The series also suffers from dumbass logic that seems to be crafted for only one reason -- to keep the story moving in the direction the producers want it to go.
Of course, I still enjoyed much of the two seasons, although I'll probably hold off buying any further seasons until I can find them for a good deal.
