I think Alison and Stark have way more chemistry than Alison and Carter. Also Alison's new cut is adorable and I think I want it, only thing is my hair has more curl and doubtless would look less sleek and sexy and more like Courtney Love on a bender.

I think Carter has more chemistry than Allison. Alli is such a blackhole of the writers whims and marionette pron that I don't know how to read her. But Carter devastates me with his feelings for her. Stark I adore, but when it comes to Allison, he leaves me cold. And I blame it all on the writing. A good triangle is one where we are put in the position to believe that the love of both courters is true and passionate. I *almost* get that with Stark, but not enough. And with Carter's memories gone, it's *almost* tragic. Then there's Allison, this blank page, moving in the wind at the whims of the writers.
Ooh, do we have any Stargate/SGa writers on board? That may explain the suckatood of the wimmens.
The smart answer would have been to have Allison declaring "I'm not sure about either of you, go suck it while I live my life, like I've been doing before and after I met either of you."
Because I'm not buying Allison's re-courtship with Stark. He says "I've changed" and she's all in? Again? It just seems so flighty.
And did I mention that Carter devastated me with his reaction to her engagement? And possibly even moreso with his acceptance of his role as "friend"?

I thought Carter had all his memories back. Am I remembering wrong?

yes. And Stark didn't say anything particularly cogent or meaningful. But I guess she never stopped loving him.

I think so. Henry blasted him with the memory thing, so his subconscious remembers, so I think that he is supposed to feel these things more intensely that his conscious mind realizes.

Damn, is there a night this week that I'm not going to cry? --referring to all the companions piloting the TARDIS and Earth home.
Poor Jackie, I dunno why they brought her in and then all her directions are "stand in the background". Shame for the actress, and a waste of space/time that couldn't have been used in, oh I dunno, having the Doctor react with grief when he thought Donna had died in the TARDIS. Or exploring human!Ten a little more instead of having him likewise standing around like a lump.
I still want to have the Bad Wolf Bay scene rewritten.
