It's 15 minutes in to SG-1, and I've Cackled Like A Loon at least six times.

So... where do they keep getting Stargates to throw around?

And I'm supposed to walk away from everything I've been living for the past decade to pretend to be the mother of an orphan and the wife of a staticky ball of electricity? That's all kinds of wrong.

Did she actually say she was going to stay? It was implied that she had a change of heart about the kid, but I never read it as set in stone that she was going to stay and be that Susan Perkins from now on. That would just be sloppy writing.

(Also, does Walter even know that the other version died and that the one standing outside the big ball o'static is the original who left him? We never got a scene where they explicitly filled him in on what was going on while he was mostly dead.)

OMG SG-1 was a blast.

We have baseball in Indiana, dammit! We have one of the finest (okay, admittedly minor-league) fields around. But still. Harumph.

Yes, but that would've been "Indianapolis," not "Indiana." The only teams called "Indiana" are basketball teams, as it right and proper.

Oh, and I was a little puzzled at the lurkity of what I presume now is evil-shrink-lady.

Evil-shrink-lady murdered Susan #2, and made it look like suicide, if that helps. Which brings up a point. Did anyone do an autopsy on Susan #2, or even investigate the fact that it might not be a suicide? Sure, she was distraught, but there was also evidence that her husband might have been in cahoots with persons unknown to obtain tech from Section 5, something she might have had knowledge of. You'd think someone might wonder about the suspiciousness of the circumstances. Where's Grissom when you need him?

Also, does Walter even know that the other version died and that the one standing outside the big ball o'static is the original who left him?

He knows the latter, at least, because Susan #1 asks him "Why?", and he explains about wanting a family, etc. They didn't depict a lot of stuff in the episode.

Did she actually say she was going to stay?

Well, the thing that sucks is about the kid. Because right now he doesn't believe anything other than, his mom isn't dead. So if, after revealing herself to the kid, she then chooses to leave, she'll have a lot of 'splainin to do.

Also,

The only teams called "Indiana" are basketball teams, as it right and proper.

Heh. Okay, this is true.

They didn't say whether she would stay or go.

I watched both old and new Nightstalkers. I had watched the new one before, my main reason for rewatching is the hope that I get to see the resolution of the CLIFFHANGER that they left us with upon cancellation.

The only teams called "Indiana" are basketball teams, as it right and proper.

Heh. Okay, this is true.

I'll have you know that IU has a (mediocre) baseball team, as well as football, soccer, and a variety of women's teams

I don't know anyone who watches any of those, though.

I definitely had the "really?" response to the line.

SGA: I have to say that I think this ep would have been much more fun if someone other than John had been the one to save everyone.

I still want to know why anyone thinks sports choices programmed by the Mouthbreather Fargo would be anything anyone would want to watch. Jack's lucky he didn't get a dominoes tournament.

• Loved* SG:1!

Full-spectrum bonding and snarking, cross-team and intermural. Yay!

It did seem pretty ironic that Daniel, the king of the magical translation (Thor moved them here 4,000 years ago. It's a form of Old Norse. I can read it!), should be put on his guard by a computer doing a magical translation.
