BWAAAAAAAAAAhahahaha.
I think the best moment was at the "wedding," when Daniel murmurs, "You know, if she takes much longer, people are going to think you and I..." I was on the FLOOR. And then Sam arrives, and they cut to Sam and Jack looking at each other in the briefing room, and it's adorable as well as hilarious.
But the Farscape bit was freakin' hilarious as well. Particularly Sam as Chiana! (That was Sam as Chiana, right?) And again I say that Ben Browder and Michael Shanks do bear an amazing resemblance to each other. LOVED whatshisface's (the actor's the guy from XF's "Small Potatoes," isn't he?) reaction, with the "I've definitely never heard of that before."
Not to mention the snarky references to the lead actor of Wormhole Xtreme "phoning it in" and of course the "Save Doctor Levant" website which got "dozens" of hits.
And the Oz section. Can't forget that. Great episode. Can we have more like that, since I'm not much interested in the actual show anymore?
The Asimov quote at the end was spiffy, although the tone shifted so fast that it made my head spin.
Atlantis
- The teaser was sort of eh because you know that, unlike BSG, say, they'd never really do something like that. But then it actually got pretty spooky, with Evil!Doc and the spooky figure who I figured out was John about the second time he showed up.
- So Weir's mom ("mum") is...vaguely Scottish? Ish? Explains Weir's very non-American accent, anyway.
- Raise your hand if you were thinking "Cyberman!" whenthe spooky guy John was trying to come out of the plastic door or whatever. *g*
- DOGGEH!
- Shippity doo dah de! Shep/Weir, woo! *heart goes pitty pat*
- Wow, Torri's a really good actress. Can they give her more like this to do?
Which Canadian band do you belong in?
You belong in Moxy Fruvous!People would travel to the vast reaches of space just to hang with you. You have an absurd sense of humour and no sense of fashion whatsoever.

Date: 2006-08-19 04:14 am (UTC)Well, it kind of works. After all, a lot of Torri's family is in England, and they are originally from Wales.

Yeah, it seemed to go from me nearly peeing my pants, to "wow, they're kinda mean to themselves," to thoughtful. Oddness.
All in all, I now want fic on the whole thing, SG-1 and Atlantis. Got muse? ;D

Ah. I knew he'd been in some episode of XF.

Dude, I want fic on the whole thing. ;) I particularly want to see someone do something with that look Sam and Jack were giving each other after the wedding scene.

Ah well, as soon as I get my internet, I'll download it as I refuse to download something off of bootleg net.
