Infection

Loved seeing the dark side of John again.

Could have done without the Keller/McKay mushy scenes.

John and Todd work off each other better then Rodney does..well in this epi anyway.

So where the "sick" Wraith the ones we saw back in DV in the AU Daedalus? That instead of dying they some how survived in their reality?

And since they have no hair I guess this means they must have been the bald "people" in Misbegotten.

And this is the 2nd time a Williams has died on the show.

Thought the ending just left you hanging.... but other wise I liked it a lot.

I give it a 9 out of 10

The Prodigal

Did not have to wait that long after all....they had it shown at the con!!! not once but twice.

Ronon's report had everyone in stitches (me included) . Thought the stun bubble was a great idea by Michael.

The banter and snark by John and Rodney (and some from the Z man) was great. The remote cars races were funny.

Loved the fight scene with Michael and John and John getting whumped..and the hair moved in this epi as well.

Loved the stairs bit where John would come running up them and then we would have to wait for Rodney who was panting by the time he reached the floor and tried to catch up to Sheppard.

I give it a 9-10

Inquisition

I thought it was OK ...not as good as Letters from Pegasus by any means and the clips used were ok but not great.

Gas whumpage!!!

I liked the way John stood up to the charges brought up to him at the start...but hated the way they dumbed him down when Woolsey got there. Wish we could have seen the others standing up there in front of the Coalition. I mean look what Rodney did in Trinity ..and nothing in the epi about that.

Once again Ronon and Teyla hardly did a thing.

Though I did like the way Woolsey turned the trial around so our guys could win (was there any doubt they would not get off?)

And I can't see they taking orders from this group at all when things need to be done in order to save lives ASAP.

Liked the bit at the end with John and Richard...the brandy was a nice touch... though I did not like to see John smoking the stogie at all. Wonder how long he had smoked them before? With all the running around over the years he would have been winded if he smoked them daily...but he did everything like a pro.

I give it a 6-10

Outsiders

An interesting epi...not a lot of action in it but still good.

Great to see Carson again but I wish they would of told us why he was back and not on Earth still.

John was great and take charge as always. Liked the way he got back at that jerk and the Wraith at the end.

Carson and Rodney worked great together. The both of them crammed in the dart cockpit was funny.

One thing I hated was one min Carson was all bravado (standing to the head Wraith and being fed upon and telling that town jerk to shoot the survivors) and the next cowering with Rodney behind a console ..did not like it.

Though the jabs they had at each other was great. And I loved the way they got off the hive ship.

Ronon and Tyela did not do much in this epi....

So Michael gave "Carson" the Hoffin drug...interesting.

Oh I found the pineapple..







it is right behind John in a basket

I give this epi a 8 out of 10

As for next weeks epi...WOW!!!

First Contact

I loved this epi.

Daniel and Rodney were great together...loved the way they got back at each other for not telling the other about something that could hurt them.

John on his bed ...*THUD***

Loved the way John looked when he was told that he had to stay put and run the city while Woolsey was away...he just did not like the idea at all.
Woolsey: Try not to blow up the place while I'm gone.
Sheppard: No promises (and look what happens)

Want to know more on the bad guys!!!!

And the Wraith are bad once again....even though it was a mistake.
I a way I felt sorry for them, when Todd was talking to Keller about what they would do when they no longer had to feed off of humans..I felt sorry because they did not know what to do since they had been doing things this way for so long.

Loved the flying shots to different parts of the city that Daniel and Rodney went to like they used once before.

John was great as aways and OMG!! what a ending I will go nuts till we find out what happened to him and Radek.

I give it a 9 - 10

The Queen

Thought it was OK...not one of the better ones.

Teyla made a good Queen and Todd was great in this epi.

Lots of double crossing going on including from Teyla.

Some good space battles and effects.

The boys were great as always..and there were lots of great one liners

John : "fruit bowl...nice touch"

Todd : "I hope they prove as delicious as the farmers who grew them."

Rodney "I can't I just had my third cup of coffee I am completely wired"

Ronon "I hadn't noticed"

John: "What have you done to her, doc?!"

Kenny: "I don't know. I am not on that ship."


And Todd's SIC has been named Kenny (not killed yet)

I give this a 6 - 10

The Shrine

Once again DH has bowled me over with is performance in this epi. The way he goes from typical Rodney to childlike Rodney and slowly losing everything was just incredible.

Loved the way Ronon tried to comfort Jeanie after she saw Rodney the first time.

Keller was above par for once in this epi.

Loved Woolsey's dad story.

The bit with John and Rodney on the peer (John barefoot no less) was touching and funny in it's own way....the Arthur bit and then both of them cracking up was a hoot (wonders if it was ad libbed or not)

Nurse Shep was interesting John looked like he was going to lose it when Keller started to cut in to Rodney's skin...and he had to look away when the drill was used.

And yes I bet John has seen his fare share of medical drills in his time.

Nice to see DH sis again and she did a great job playing against her brother in this epi as well.

I give it a 9 1/2 out of 10

Ghost in the Machine

I thought the epi was OK.

The opening scene was gripping in a way and John trying not to get stuck in the gate (again) by hitting the pj with it was cool.

The whole non Weir bit bothered me..I don't know why really but it did.

Liked that Woolsey got a backbone at last and did a great job bluffing the replicators into stop sinking the city.

Ronon hitting the wall....ouch. Good thing Ronon was in the room with Rodney since the good Dr fell asleep

Shep whump.

I thought Teyla was going to say something to John after she had talked to Fran/Liz because something Fran/Liz said to her puzzled her and it looked like she did not believed it was really Liz.

The ending was sad but I guess everyone knew it had to be Liz for "real" for what she did to save Atlantis once again.

I give it a 7 - 10

The Daedalus Variations

I liked the epi.

Seeing Teyla helping Rodney out was interesting. And Ronon getting upset and hitting the rail gun console and getting a easy Chewie from John was funny.

And I wish they had fleshed the epi out more, seems things were to rushed to me. And I have a feeling we will see the new bad guys again.

Did not like dead team Shep at all.

Liked it when Rodney got shot and he screamed like a girl LOL

Loved the talk between the two John's LOL

Any one catch John saying "Umm Daedalus..this is Daedalus" to his other self? wonders why he said it that way.

And the bit at the end was funny when John thought that Rodney having kids was the worse thing to think of.

Not the best epi so far but I will give it a 7 out of 10

Search and Rescue

WOW what a way to start off the new season!!!

I liked the way they added Ford into the epi...cleaver.

Shep whump to end all Shep whump!!! Loved the whole Shep/ Ronon bit when they were in the rubble and later on during Teylas rescue.

I could not stop laughing at the look of horror on Rodney's face when he had to deliver the baby lol. Hope DH was not like that with Baz.

Shep in scrubs drool

Wonder who took the jumper......Michael does not have the gene.hmmmmm.

One thing that bothered me was the name Teyla gave the baby....she said Torrin John after her dad and Shep, yet in Rising her fathers name was Tughan.

Keller was not bad in this epi and so long Sam.
