I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Actually, I think I've read it - the one with the little kid, right? You know, the dead one.

I suspect they're heading into the homestretch now, as I'm apparently seeing episodes from 2000.

Elena -- you mean that they clearly explained that Richie was a future immortal in the first episode?

No, not explained. But there's an exchange between Duncan and Connor that's kind of inexplicable until you learn much later that Richie's a potential immortal. It's been long enough since I saw it that I don't really remember, so I don't remember if there's any other evidence than that.

I love him. I'd be more of a shipper if I loved Nikita too. But I do love him to pieces.

Oh, I still find Michael fascinating, even though Nikita's characterization steadily went so kerflooey that I wanted to put season five in a paper bag and leave it flaming on the porch of whomever approved it...

Er. Yes. Michael will either grow on you, or he won't. I won't mind which way you swing, since I have friends hugely into Madeline/Operations, and anything Birkoff.

Sumi, I haven't a clue. I haven't seen the pilot in yonks.

I'm willing to accept that he may be an interesting character. It's just, you know, the mullet. In the late 90s. I had difficulties.

It's just, you know, the mullet.

If it helps, the mullet does go away. He looks much better with a) short hair, or b) longer, curly hair.

Nobody deserves hockey hair.

circumvent the Air Force's insistence

Okay, waitaminnit. I don't watch a lot of Stargate, but I happen to know that the people of Stargate spend all of their time running around among pine trees, usually in pre-technological civilizations, on the ground.

Air Force? What giant pissing contest resulted in the Air Force being the people in charge? And does that mean the Army gets to control some giant undersea installation I don't know about? (I mean, yes, technically, you're flying when you travel through space, but the Air Force isn't in charge of NASA either.)

I watched a few episodes of LFN, and wanted to like it, but nobody will ever top Tchecky Karyo, and that's that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I happen to know that the people of Stargate spend all of their time running around among pine trees, usually in pre-technological civilizations, on the ground

They also spend a notable amount of time flying, if that helps.

Er, yeah. They never explain this. Short version appears to be "it was in our warehouse and we're keeping it, by God!"

They do have a few Marines running around, which I suppose doesn't help all that much.
