He did! We IM'd for a bit last night before I went to bed and he went out to dinner with other press folks. He said he didn't bring me back a Stargate, but he did get to see them turn one on during the set visit. (It really does light up and spin around, but the splooshy water thingy is done later by computers. Shocking!)
Jayne: There's times I think you don't take me seriously. I think that ought to change. Mal: Do you think it's likely to?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Is your sentence running on? You'd better go catch it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The guy who cut Jason Momoa has been sentenced to five years.
Did anyone bother watching episode 10 of Defying Gravity? Suddenly the Mars mission had visions too. And now they're flashing back to that in detail instead of to mission prep. Too late for me to care, really. Don't want new people. But I'm glad that Jen copped to not being able to see Beta, and that she did so to both Zoe and her husband. I hate when characters sit on their own private angst machines. Not sure where they're going with Rollie's car accident, or how that might be resolved by episode 13--I don't hold much hope that they're going to resolve much of a mini arc by the end, except perhaps by having reached Venus, though that looks like next episode.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yes, I saw the ep. I was PISSED about the car accident. I mean wtf? I thought the Mars flashbacks were weird and I find them strange that Ron L.'s character didn't say "uh oh, déjà vu" when the same crazy stuff started happening on this mission.
btw, I think that the 2 astronauts they left on Mars are still alive.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Having the Mars astronauts still be alive would be appropriately soapy. Think they'll get there before the end of ep 13?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
NO.
I read the episode descriptions on wikipedia. Ain't no way they are going to wrap anything up, IMO.

Edit: the last couple of pictures are spoilery if you've managed to avoid major Who news over the past few months.

Lord, that picture of Peter Davidson makes him look like Jesse Spencer from House.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Ha! In FlashForward, John Cho's fiancee is Isis from Bring it On! That's awesome!
Also -- did I see Gina Torres' name in the credits?
