See, I thought it was the perfect way to indicate "we are not in 2008 anymore, Toto".
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Written by Emmy-nominated The 4400 co-creator and executive producer Scott Peters, the new V was sold to ABC as a spec script.
The original NBC television mini-series, produced during the golden age of that format and later leading to a second mini-series and a short-lived spin-off weekly series in the '84-'85 season, centered on a race of lizard-like aliens who come to Earth disguised as humans with seemingly with friendly intentions, but literally and figuratively masking a hidden agenda. The original series' story very bluntly served as allegory to Nazi Germany during the Holocaust, going so far as to have characters that lived through that era recognize the aliens' methods and intentions.
Peters told Variety he won’t duplicate that concept, but that the new V will still focus on what happens when "the masses have blind faith in their leaders".
The new V will focus on a female Homeland Security agent with an aimless, problematic son who "gloms" to aliens upon their arrival — causing tension within the family. But as in the original V, several storylines will be featured

Sciffy ran a mini-marathon of Haunted yesterday AND they're running two more episodes on the 15th AND another mini-marathon on November 11th.
I discovered this and (I'm sorry, Matt!) forgot to post the information.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Rodney's just an emotionally unavailable ass. Ronon mightn't talk much, but that doesn't make him distant.
I never liked the doctor anyway.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Yes, the Asgard were the real surprise. Why not suggest that they vacate the Pegasus galaxy and come back to ours, since presumably we could help them get their tech back up and running?
But I wonder how many Stargates blew up while all this was going on? Especially as aside from the Travellers, there would be no way for one planet to warn another other than by sending something through one?
