So it is kind of fun, seeing them meet the Asgard and the Tollan and the Tok'ra for the first time, seeing Sam get possessed by Jolinar (who I always thought was female, for some reason), seeing Linea's first appearance, etc.

It is. Yeah - I had the same reaction, too (thought they referred to Jolinar as she/her). I liked Martouf -- he was sweet. Dead now, right?

Only Daniel gets the "Gee, how ugly can I make myself look?" bits. Which occasionally reminds me of the over-eager thespians I knew in high school.

Snerk.

I've started including one Stargate DVD with each Netflix round I order, so I can get this continuity thing down. I just finished with Angel Season 2, a lot of which I hadn't seen (and, man, was that fun!). I'm digging Netflix -- feeding the addiction, yeah, baby.

Heh. David Marciano (Ray V from Due South) is on NYPD Blue right now playing a loud, histrionic guy named Ray who's passing himself off as a police detective.

brenda, that's just freaky.

edit: Sam got infected by the computer alien.

Oh yeah! "You will not hurt this one."

I have a plan.

Jolinar was the one with Martouf, and Sam got Jolinar from a male host.

Jolinar just happened to be hiding out in that body. I'm pretty sure if it was Daniel or Jack trying to give CPR, S/he would have just as readily taken them over too.

Perhaps gender doesn't really matter all that much to the Symbiotes themselves, excpet to the extend of their host's compatability with a chosen partner's host body, gender-wise that is.

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

Oh yes. If they kissed Sam, they're pretty much dead at this point. Jack got a pass, but then he only kissed an alternate Sam, so he got to die and then come back.

Sounds probable ... especially if you (symbiote) know you could end up driving hosts of either gender. You'd have to be sort of flexible that way.

ETA:

Poor Sam. (And dead Kissers of Sam)

He also got to kiss Sam during his Ground Hog Day-athon. Got out of that one too thanks to the miracle of time travel. Wonder how many times he really managed to do that before the overall problem got fixed...

Yeah, once he got the burning urge to perform pottery out of his system.

OK, can't wait to see this ep so I can make sense of the performing pottery thing. I love that I haven't seen so many random eps. Makes it so much more fun.

I have a plan.

"Window of Opporunity" ranks as one of my all time favorite eps. I would love to tell you more about it but that would take the fun out of watching it yourself. Hopefully you'll catch it sometime soon.
