I don't get it. I couldn't even finish the first episode and I watch some BAD tv often enough.
I got stupid. The money was too good.

Our wings are not tired.
I tried to watch about 5 minutes then left it taping in case the morning reviews surprised me. They didn't.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I am as one with the thread on SG-1, SGA, Eureka, and PKJ.
on the BB/CB scenes, it's funny. I mean, the meta was just absolutely screaming at me. But, at the same time, she's very not! Aeryn, whereas Cam is still, in a lot of ways, well, he's getting a lot of the lines that Jack would have gotten, exactly as they would have been written for Jack, and those lines are very like early Crichton in a lot of places, although I will give Cam credit as a credible soldier, which Crichton never was.
I really really liked the SGC response to the events on SGA. The Atlantians really are becoming a decidedly separate identity, and, of course, it was very telling that John referred to Atlantis as "our home". Even given the ease with which people can now go back and forth from Cheyenne Mountain to Atlantis, I hope they continue to play this growing gap between the two.
And Jack was the most Jack he's been since he stopped being a regular, IMO.
The Atlantians really are the younger siblings to SG-1, and kinda fuck-up younger siblings at that. And damned if I don't love them for it.

Also, did they kill off Baal?!? If so, I am disappointed indeed.
Considering the cloning thing, I think there are an infinite supply of Ba'als.
The Stargates are so much fun. I had missed fun. Also, Eureka!

He was. When Elizabeth hugged him I knew how she felt. Yes!
Unlimited supply of Ba'als works for me too.

Oh good. I'd forgotten we have more Baals out there. Just like roaches, but with better looks and accents.

Nice to see you again, Jack.
And yes, I never once thought those people onscreen were John and Aeryn, they very much were not. But it was nice to see the actors working together in the same space, instead of being buffered or filtered by other characters or distance or unfolding events. I'm sure everyone wanted to avoid calling reference to FS, but it seems a shame, when you have actors with that much history and chemistry together, not to use it.
I did have a moment of "Hey!" when Baal went down with no fanfare at all, so thanks for reminding me of the apparent limitless supply of Baal, now at your favorite supermarket or outlet store.

Art Crawl!!!
Okay, the Stargates were fun but Painkiller Jane was meh.
I can't believe that they gave that show a 22 episode order. Please.
I would join the SPN W&P but I don't think I have a tape of IMTOD.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I have the opposite problem, sumi. I have IMTOD, but not the last ep of S1. Feh.
