I never got why Sam wouldn't have asked for General O'Neill.
Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) 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.

Our wings are not tired.
I'd watch the Watch & Squee even though I don't watch the show. I skim the flailing here because y'all are funny.
Sam not asking for Jack was just wierd.

Still touchy from the break-up?
But sadly, I'm guessing we're not going to be seeing much of him this week.
Thankfully they compensated with more screentime for Kavan Smith than I can ever recall him getting on either show, so the episode's hotness quotient was undiminished. Either the producers are crazy about him in their own right (definitely a possibility), or the amount of fan squeeing Kavan has generated in the last season and a half is being noticed and adjusted for.

I finally saw this week's SGA.
Is it me, or was that just deeply deeply stupid?
They had to bring back Lucius, who was so incredibly problematic on the first round (rapist, anyone?), and redeem the fucker, while making the villagers too stupid and sheeplike to live, and have Sheppard's team make a series of deeply dumb decisions (like not fighting the Genii). This is just... bah.
I'm resentful that they wrote out the single most interesting opponent the Atlanteans have by way of a cliche'd and predictable gunslinger confrontation.
Wow, I really disliked that a great deal.

Oh -- it was THAT episode this week? Ugh. I had actually *completely* forgotten that episode even existed. Hope I'll be able to forget it a second time.

Thrive to spite them
I wish I could forget that episode. I hate Lucious. Partly because he is so very loathsome but also because I don't like the actor (or maybe I just don't like characters he's played in the past). But I kept flipping back and watching.
Kolya deserved a better episode. And a better death that was just a waste of an hour.

In my mind, his name is Unctuous instead of Lucius.

I think my Kolya is the one that M. wrote in Cowboy Days, who is complex and interesting, if still an asshole.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I found Doctor Who 3x5 to be disappointing. I really wish they would stop throwing around the term "DNA" as if it were applied phlebotinum.
I want to like Martha, but so far they haven't done much to define the character, except that she's Not!Rose.
And I really, really wish the Doctor would stop approaching the Daleks unarmed without having a reason to believe that they won't shoot him.
The Doctor is supposed to survive by his wits, not by dumb luck.
