Well, nobody's ever said Stargate was OMG Quality Television! It's fun. It's likeable. It's very often goofy.
And I agree -- I think CB is having a blast with the role.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Just watched Wraithal Discriminaiton - it does look like the crew have a lot of fun with this show. I love the fact that the Wraith all get their own names, even if we don't always hear them on the show. Darrel the Wraith. Bob the Wraith. Great stuff.

Ah, beg pardon. My dl was more than a trifle blurry during the title shots.

Skye, check out LJ's sg_episodes, as there have been YSI links to the short, which IIRC is off the British DVDs -- it's a behind-the-scenes documentary about the Wraiths, who plays them, what the producers and cast think about them. It's actually pretty funny, somewhat in part because it seems like all the guys who play Wraiths must have spent serious time in Improv Olympics.
Incidentally, I think it takes quite a bit of acting ability to look studly and serious when Claudia Black is chewing the scenery grandly, loudly, and very funnily right in front of you.

You know, I've just figured out who Vala reminds me of, and it's Flash on Black Adder. Woof!

If I only had a brain...
My God, you're right.
Somebody on my LJ friendslist pointed out that Vala is Rygel.

Our wings are not tired.
Hee. Except Rygel not quite so HOTT in the outfits.

I'm starting to think Daniel is more likely to do Rygel than to do Vala.
