Stargate: Atlantis - Season 5 (DVD - 2008)

The STARGATE universe is exhilaratingly expanded and the epic feel of the franchise is perfected in this acclaimed spin-off of the STARGATE SG-1 series (itself spun-off from the 1994 blockbuster from director Roland Emmerich). In STARGATE: ATLANTIS, an international crew of scientists and soldiers finds yet another Stargate, one which leads to the lost city of Atlantis. This Stargate isn't on Earth but in the far-away Pegasus Galaxy, and the secret city holds a formidable new enemy known as the Wraith. With this fifth and final season of the hit sci-fi series, the order of things takes one final turn as IOA representative Robert Woolsey replaces Samantha Carter as the commander of Atlantis, and the mission’s original leader, the allegedly self-sacrificed and cloned Elizabeth Weir, returns as an ascended being. Meanwhile, the crew moves to take down the human-wraith hybrid Michael and free the captive Teyla while a rogue faction of the benevolent Asgard race shares its experiments in the prolonging of human life--as well as an item that could forever change the Stargate universe as fans know it. This set includes all 20 episodes of STARGATE: ATLANTIS’s final season and serves as the lead-in to the exciting feature-length STARGATE: EXTINCTION. minimize
