MGM Home Entertainment has revealed the street dates for the second season of the original THE OUTER LIMITS and season four of STARGATE SG-1. Both sets will be available on September 2.

THE OUTER LIMITS second season set will be three DVDs containing 17 episodes. Some of the series most fondly remembered episodes were in this season including Harlan Ellison's "Soldier" (which provided the basis for James Cameron's THE TERMINATOR) and ""Demon with a Glass Hand"; "Cold Hands, Warm Heart" starring a pre-STAR TREK William Shatner; ""The Invisible Enemy" starring Adam West (BATMAN) and best remembered for the sandshark that swallowed astronauts whole; and "The Inheritors" starring Robert Duvall as a scientist whose IQ shoots through the roof.

The fourth season set of STARGATE SG-1 is five disc containing all 22 episodes, a 25-minute documentary and two featurettes. Notable episodes include "Watergate" which introduced the Russian Stargate (and which starred STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION's Marina Sirtis); "Small Victories" which introduced the deadly new alien threat of the Replicators; "2010" which looks at one possible future outcome of the series; and "Exodus", the season finale which reintroduces evil System Lord Apophis back into the series.

Prices for each the two sets will be reported shortly.
