I'm not sure the show is smart enough for an intentional misdirect
True, true. I find it hilarious that no one bothered with "... so, half white lighter, half witch. Unusual combo. Care to explain?" Not surprising, just hilarious. And I agree, little bro is far more likely.
ION, I'm off to watch Stargate Monday on Sc-Fi. Have I mentioned how much I love having cable again? Yeah, I probably have.
Speaking of Stargate, I watched 2 episodes tonight. I've never been a big follower of this show, just watch it when there's nothing else on. I never know what season I'm watching but it never seems to matter. I do have one question though, is it just me or is there some UST between O'Neil and Carter?
Monday night stargate marathon, I'm in heaven.
is there some UST between O'Neil and Carter?
Depends on the episode.
As in -- some times it's textual, other times irrelevant. What happened in the eps you saw?
I'm psyched. I hadn't seen the last two episodes or the one playing now. Hee, bugs ... big, disgusting bugs. Hee.
Well, in one of them Jack got impaled by some alien ball wiith sentient microbes. There was another ep a while back where they were all in some kind of prison and didn't remember who they were. There was a scene where they were sitting together and she had her head on his shoulder. It just seems like there are times when there is some chemistry between them.
Any time they're not in the Air Force anymore, there's stuff between them.
As for the impaling, there probably would have been chemistry between whoever was impaled, and whoever was doing most of the work on saving them. But Carter/O'Neill is always a goodie.
Watching that one right now.
As noted in earlier posts, Jack is one of the only people to have kissed Carter and live through the ep.
I believe that there is some amount of UST, at the very least on his side. Though professionalism prohibits it development.
It was made explicit in a couple episodes -- there's an alternate reality where they were married, a time repeat one where he quite the Force and kissed her, and one in the current timeline/reality, where he had to 'fess up to some inappropriate feelings.
But it's totally not a Scully/Mulder thing.
