Sorry about that.
Hmmm, maybe it's the doubleposting that put me in the top 10 posters of '04.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
And it looks like you've been thinking about it a lot.
Ah, shucks, sumi edited.

I was watching the S1 episode with Jack's wife in it the other day, and couldn't help noticing how much she (Harley Jane Kozak) resembles Amanda Tapping.

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
Yeah, there's debate as to whether that's intentional. I wouldn't be surprised, frankly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just watched episode 13 of Stargate and I admit, it was fun. So I'm not as mad at them as I'd been thinking I'd need to be. It was more in line with old school Gate, and not just because (ita gets all buttery and weak) Jack went offworld. It was a rhythm thing. Unfortunately the mental refrain of "Does Wayne Brady have to choke a bitch???" was very loud, and somewhat distracting. But added to his impact.
So -- fun, and now I have to re-watch the Atlantis episode with the time travel and see if it's the same device. Yay! SG1 has a puddle jumper!

Hee. Jack! Offworld! Pointing a gun! *sigh* It was fabulous. And he was so happy about it!
Because I am an immense dork who's just coming out of the Christmas season, the "comfort and joy" thing made me fall over giggling.

Hmm. I finished DLing that last night. I could watch that right now.
Especially after your spoilery tidbits.

Oh, and the thigh holsters were in FULL effect. That certainly doesn't hurt.

And now I have. That was amusing. Some cute character bits, especially Jack offworld. But don't look too closely at the plot, like the Jaffa who could read and translate Ancient as easily as Daniel, and yet was apparently no more than a footsoldier. I wasn't entirely thrilled with the easy redemption of Harry Maybourne. I like him better when he's trouble.

But there wasn't any evidence that the Jaffa understood what he was looking at, beyond that it was in the language of the Ancients -- it was never translated. And that had been precisely the fear -- that they'd come and see it, and subject the planet to further scrutiny.
The constant repeats make it hard to be sure where one's left off in a particular through line, but I'd thought that Maybourne was redeemed in his previous episode. Am I remembering it too warmly?
