Hi all. So, I'm watching the season 2 premier of The 4400 and I was delighted to see Summer Glau featured.

I hope she gets more work as somebody other than a mentally imbalanced character.

Regardless, she does a wonderful job.

It was on at the bar I was at tonight, so I couldn't hear the sound, but at one point I looked up and saw Summer's face on some sort of computer screen and had a Firefly flashback.

It was a nice touch with Jeffery Combs giving her an H.P. Lovecraft book.

I spent the whole weekend watching SGA. I just have the seige 1 & 2 left, although I realized I didn't rewatch two episdoes -- the one with the planet working on a bioweapon against the Wraith and the one that introduces teh Jeni (Geni?) (people with nuclear power but no radition who become pains the ass for SG team.)

I thought I remembered what happened, but I might have missed interesting interplay between Rodney and John. Their love is so pure!!1!!

They are so much fun together. Plus in The Defiant One, Rodney so couldn't wait to go out and save his boyfriend. I half expected what's his name the cannon fodder to say something about Rodney wanting to save his boyfriend. Maybe not half expected, but it seemed like it was there and the stupid tv censors got in the way.

Dr. Cannon fodder with motion sickness looked likeone of the first refugees that SG1 brought back from the planet where SG1 ended up in dog kennel cages, but evidentally wasn't. The only name I was coming up with is Narim, but he's another alien and had the hots for Carter.

Dr. Cannon Fodder was Nyan, who ... yes, was the archaeologist from the planet where they ended up in dog kennels.

I'm going to have to watch that again. The quality of what I downloaded wasn't that great, especially on that episode, so I ended up watching it rather small.

Okay, I was actually able to see the promos today.

Umm, I'm pretty sure that the scene where Starbuck is aiming at somebody and then is prevented from shooting was already aired -- she's aiming at Boomer and Helo prevents her from shooting Boomer and says, "She's carrying my baby."

Is that in response to my wondering about who the guy at the end of Starbuck's gun is? There is definitely the scene with Helo preventing her from shooting Boomer, and then right after that, there's a scene outside where she has a gun trained on someone and then whips her head around and points the gun in her other hand toward someone else, all the while keeping the first gun trained on the... I think what is a new guy, who also seems to be holding a gun. Doesn't look like Helo or one of the Cylons we've seen so far.

Dr. Who ep 11: Jack made the "W" for WHAT.ever. sign with his hands? Too funny. Fortunately, he didn't remind me even once of Tom Cruise this week. I continue to adore CE.

I have a general Dr. Who history (of the show, not of time) question - what happened to the various companions once the Dr., er, changed? Did they go back to their own time? End badly? Go elsewhere? Some combination of these?

The companions tended to stick with the Doctor for at least a bit after regeneration, but the position had a lot of turnover. One of them, Tegan, lasted all the way from the end of the Fourth Doctor's run to just before the beginning of the Sixth's.
