icepixieSG-1: Endgame
Such a step up from the rest of this season. Continuity and a plot that hung together and moral questions and dialogue that didn't suck. I felt like I was watching Stargate again, not reconstituted drivel posing as SG-1. Yay! Whoever wrote this episode needs a raise!
- OMG, that opening sequence was freaking brilliant. Hilarious and brilliant. Sargeant Davis needs his own spinoff. Stargate: Technicians on Graveyard Shift.
- Hey, the Alpha Site actually looks like it's not in British Columbia!
- "The effects are almost instantaneous, we should all be dead." All the more reason to leave as quickly as possible instead of standing around gawking, I'd say, but you didn't ask me.
- Choir music, yay!
- There are so many "anomalies" in this episode, I'm begining to wonder if it's a refugee from Voyager.
- Sam and Danny are so great together. Hee.
- Uh, Jack, you seem pissy... Not that I blame you, of course. But.
Atlantis: The Storm
Also an excellent episode. Not only do they concentrate on the unique geographical problems that come from living in a floating city on this particular planet, but they bring back the most convincing villain so far. Genii = good stuff.
- Ooooh, pretty view of the ocean.
- So Ivan made its way over to Atlantis, I see.
- Two hurricanes? 20% of the planet? Jeebus. Okay, Ivan and Frances and Charley and a whole bunch of other hurricanes all put together. And apparently that landmass is the only one on the planet...
- Heh, weather forecasting. NOAA would have fun with this. The computers would probably take one look at that thing and break down in tears.
- Yay, another view of the city!
- Wheeee, Zelenka's back! And damn, I want McKay/Zelenka slash right now. Their scenes together were almost as good as the Beckett/McKay ones from earlier this season.
- Heh, Lizzie is so the den mother of the Cub Scout troup from hell.
- Bwah! It's Robert Davi! Tell me I'm not the only one having Profiler flashbacks.
- "We plan to have a plan." *snerk*
- Lizzie? Why do you let Shep negotiate? Remember what happened the last time you did that?
- Watch as everyone pokes needles into Rodney's overinflated ego.
- Lightning rods all over the city...actually, that makes sense, what with all those towers.
- Okay, the irony inherent in the latest incarnation of the Farscape promos is painful. Yeah, the story didn't finish because YOU CANCELED THE FREAKING SHOW, SCI-FI. [/bitter]
- Aw, Lizzie has a bum knee? And McKay knows about this? And damn, poor Shep.
- The random redshirt who wished he had bacon "because it makes other food worth eating" is obviously a Southern boy. Bet you want your mama's cookin', too, don't you?
- Okay, Beckett? Ford? Teyla? You are in a puddle jumper in the middle of a hurricane. Notice how this does not have a foundation on it. YOU ARE ESSENTIALLY IN A TRAILER. Do you know what happens to mobile homes in hurricanes? *headdesk*
- Y'know, what Atlantis needs is a whole lot of plywood. All that glass, man...
- Okay, Shep writing "talk" with the arrow on the walkie-talkie just cements his similarity to John Crichton (remember "Hi" on the nuclear bomb?). Ah, Shep.
- Ooooh, is that a bridge? Awesome. Well, we're finally seeing more of the city...
- Now Lizzie finally sounds like a diplomat. She's a great character when they let her do what she knows.
- Is that little Palm Pilot-looking thing John's holding the Atlantis equivalent of the Maurauders' Map? I think it is. Hee! *attempts to beat Atlantis/Harry Potter xover out of brain with a stick*
- But you can't end it there! Augh! And we have to wait several months...waaah...

And the dude was all, "He's good" and Weir was all, "Yes, he is" all cocky and smug cuz she knew her man was gonna save her.
And then Shep was all, "I'll fly you myself" while thinking, "Oh please please PLEASE don't shoot her"
*squee* .... I can't... wait... four months. *dies*
