Once again, we spend a lot of time talking about jell-o bc jell-o was the most interesting part of this episode. Vala continues to be sketchy and untrustworthy, but maybe there's at least a little hope for her. Meanwhile Kathy takes a hard stance on ...
A little wraith ship oopsie virtually Tuvixes Rodney and it's about as annoying as you'd expect. In the B story, is Aquaman does a lot of grumbling.
What do you call SG -1 sitting alone in an empty stolen cargo ship? Overnumerousness. (It's a word. And the joke does work.)
The team battle the tropical sun to find Aquaman all dried up from wraith sucking. The doctor whines about ethics or something.
Kathy's having a bad day. Mary's having bad day. Vala and Daniel are having a bad day. Fannis is having a terrible day. Harrid and Sallis are having the worst day ever. We hope you're having a better day than everyone over here is.
The Daedalus crew tries turning it off and on and off and on and off and on. Sheppard gets a promotion. Caldwell can't run Atlantis, but at least he has a recliner. Mary and Kathy discuss the pros and cons of being sitting ducks and, most importantly ...
New cast members, new team, new enemies, and a new way to torture people. Great! All things no one asked for! I guess maybe someone might have asked for it. But we didn't ask for it. Probably no Stargate fans asked for it. So no one important could h ...
Assistant Director Walter Ski- Ahem, Colonel Caldwell comes to the rescue! Mary talks about cold braaaains! Zelenka understands buffer time! Ford gets weird (even more so than usual). And, this is a pro-union podcast, Rodney.
Our heroes have hung up their zats but the show must go on for reasons. New guy Mitchell is as bummed as we are that SG-1 is gone. Vala ruins Daniel's plans so he joins in on the whining. Pwalter, always there when we need him most, keeps the continu ...
Oh no! Our plan failed and the wraith are coming. We need to evacuate! No wait! It's the SGC! We're saved! Oh no! All our plans fell apart and we're surrounded by wraith!
Teal'c kills Daniel! Jack and Sam make out! Rodney keeps trying to make Gateship happen! Does any of it really matter if it occurs in an alternate timeline? Who knows?
Teyla is accused of espionage, there's a surprise wraith in the city, one of our favorite characters dies, Atlantis' only hope of defense is too glitchy to stand up to the wraith ships, and Mary spilled her protein shake. It's bad. It's all bad.
SG-1 screws up the timeline and everything is the worst. Sam and Daniel wear boring earth tones, Jack is filthy, Rodney is a creep, Kinsey is president and there's no stargate. Good job, guys.
Teyla reads Wraith minds! Teyla has nightmares! Teyla does therapy! Teyla finds a "secret lab!" Teyla eats soup! Have we mentioned this episode is all about Teyla?
We say goodbye to a whopping four characters in this episode. Our emotions run from sad to delighted. And no, of course Daniel is not one of those characters.
There’s clips and bickering and moral failings. We’re 50/50 on whether these things are enjoyable to watch.
Everyone on the team contributes to the win: Teal'c makes reaction faces, Daniel dies again, Jack rescues Siler, Sam hangs out with the Ba'alogram, Bratac gloats, and Jacob/Selmac act put out.
It's like Indiana Jones but without the best parts of Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford).
RepliCarter T1000's Yu. Anubis has some major freezer burn. Jack is even more Jack than usual. A jaffa has a wardrobe malfunction. It's a weird episode.
When faced with your own alter-ego, do you call each other by your first name? When you find out your frenemy's alter ego (and hundreds of other people) all died in a different timeline, is it okay to make fun of him? If you are in mostly-suspended ...
We talk about a guy talking about episodes we’ve already talked about, which we talk about again in describing this episode.
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition, and we didn't expect to be so bored.
Did Kinsey drink all the scotch or did Jack? How does no one notice the super-obvious surveillance vehicles?? Where did all these hagfish come from??? Is that really it for the Trust and Kinsey???? Vodka or gin????? So many unanswered questions.
No one but John Sheppard can save Atlantis. He will do anything he can--disobey his boss, needlessly put a bunch of people in danger. Anything.
