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

And I think all the costumers should be fired, except for the one who bought everything off the rack at The North Face. She can stay.

Everyone looks good in fleece!

I'm afraid I cannot join in the Beckett love

's'okay. More for me and sumi.

I had a bit of the same reaction about Sheppard and

Cocky Man Shows Controlling Woman The Error Of Her Ways

during the balcony scene. But I don't think that's where they're headed, ultimately. I hope.

New Weir is slowly making me forget that I'd rather see Old Weir in the role. McKay was good, if played a little over-snippy while explaining the sheild collapse - but, hey, danger can make a person overly snippy. I like his exchanges with Beckett. And Weir.

Yeah, costuming. Oh well.

I see decent potential. I liked. At the base, there seem to be enough good intereaction pairings that I'll stay tuned to see what they can do with the show.

It's the zen thing, which phrasing I shall now properly attribute to 'Suela.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Cocky Man Shows Controlling Woman The Error Of Her Ways

Except it looks like cocky man is going to end up with fierce warrior woman. When he fastened the lost pendant around her neck, I was thinking that it her culture it was probably a marriage ceremony.

True, but the Controlling Woman doesn't have to be the same person as the Love Interest. I don't really think they're setting up the Weir/Sheppard interactions to be CM v. CW anyway, though. Seems like they're probably shooting for a more we can all learn from each other scenario. I am, of course, talking out my ... because how the hell would I know?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

DX, I thought much the same thing. In fact, during that scene I said something along the lines of "you may now kiss the bride."

That would be funny if they went that route, but let things go a few episodes before Sheppard figured it out.

DANIEL: Crap!
JACK: What?
DANIEL: I meant to include "don't do anything even vaguely ceremonial-seeming with random offworld women" in the departure briefing.
JACK: Once! Once, that happened. Well, okay, twice. Three... and there was that time with the penguin creatures on -737... Well, okay, so, marriage is a good way to build rapport.

Train of thought on sci-fi death:

do you think Daniel Jackson's first body is buried somewhere and he could go visit his own grave?

Art Crawl!!!

That would be amusing -- he could go like on the memorial of his first death.

I seem to recall that ascended folk leave nothing but a pile of clothes behind when they light up. I bet he could visit a memorial headstone somewhere, though. Creepy and cool. But now that I think about it, I don't remember for Daniel, specifically. Was his bod still in the bed? Huh. I don't know. And I'm just avoiding morning chores now, so I'm going to stop.

I thought his body was still on the bed but i can't remember specifically. I've also always been a little concerned about anyone who might have come to his funeral (assuming there was one). I know he doesn't really have any family but someone had to have cared that he died - the foster parents, at least?
