Or... should I? I understand previous previews were spoilery as hell.
Depends on how spoiled you want to be, I suppose. Last year they had clips from the first four or so episodes, along with a clip from Heroes, but they had a whole hour to work with. The commercials only show one clip from a new episode, and that's a behind-the-scenes shot, but... tough to know.
I'd watch it and let you know, but I won't be back until Thursday, so you'd have to live with temptation.
So I watched Lost City Part 2 again last night. And something caught me that I didn't realize on the first round. Downloading the Ancients' database into Jack's brain gives him healing powers? The Hell?
That's just weird.
Oh, and the Sam angst was way over the top. Most annoying. Still, it was nice to see Kinsey get fired. I do hope they give the man an agenda other than power-hungry maniac, because his shtick is getting old.

Well, if the Asgards can remove the excess lairning from Jack's brain with a wave of their hand in "The Fifth Race," perhaps the ancients developed abilities that could heal...
It did take a lot out of him to heal, tho.
Plus? It's Stargate. They talk to people on other worlds without a translating gimmick, they manage to almost always hit during daylight, and the gates are almost always in remote areas.
Just once I'd like to see them come out of the gate and see an entire tourist trap town surrounding the gate. Stores filled with gate-derived merchandise for them to gawk at might be cool.
Jack picks up a key ring for himself, and an extra for Jack II.
While we're at it, I think Jack II should come back for a few eps.

Which Jack II are y'all thinking about? Robo-Jack or Teen-Jack?
Teen Jack.
Good point.
See, I was thinking of Jake 2.0 the series, and...
Besides, didn't Robo-Jack die? I think he did.
I can handwave the daylight arrivals as them finding out what time it is from the MALP. And I've given up on the translation thing. But what Jack got from the Ancients was purely data, I thought, not new paranormal abilities.
I dunno. It's too close to magic being exhibited by a normal human for me to swallow. ::shrugs::
Maybe the data is how to work our natural abilities to ... I dunno.
I hateHATEhated the implication that Jack has a special brain/genetics (that was mentioned in the Jack 2.0 episode). Keep him normal, thanks. (Though not dumb, RDA, if you could)

Wordy mcWord, ita. To all of the above.
I read a story this week that I really liked because Jack was smart, in the way he should be, about leadership and stuff. Of course, it derailed in the last 15K into really soppy slash. But the setup was good.
