SG 2x17

Well, there was some good banter, and prettypretty Lorne is safe, and Ronon is hot, and Teyla had a new top, and there were parts of the episode where Weir didn't bug me. Also, there's always a chance of Kolya coming back, killing him off-screen would be a waste.

On the other hand, I am seriously considering that sometime during this season, perhaps just after the mid-season break (or after Epiphany, I'm not sure), that all the major characters fell down and hit their heads very very hard. How dumb are they?

Ok, it wasn't quite up there with "let's hand our bodies over to unknown aliens" or "getting involved in a landwar in Asia succession struggle" or "torturing people with no evidence" stupid, but while I like these characters, the stupidity burns.

However, "That's Lt Colonel Errand Boy to you" nearly made me fall out of my chair! And Rodney trying so hard to be all competently military was so cute.

In other news, we watched more S1 Farscape tonight as well. Oh, I love that I'm finally watching this show properly.

The news about Challenge makes me sad, especially as even though I will definitely travel to the US/Canada again and hopefully meet up with some of my friends, it was such a marvellous time as well as being a large gathering point. I think I'm mostly mourning that, I'm numb to other implications at the moment. Frankly though, the organisational issues were such that I think moving away from the CFTC system is probably for the best in many ways though, I can see that being a perfectly valid reason, apart from anything else.

The organizational issues had a tendency to make the whole thing less than it could have been, that's for sure.

I'm still processing, myself.

A fan gathering around the same time as someone's (JC, Nick, AJ, Chris especially) would work for me :)

Koyla is like a horror movie villian - the dude doesn't die. Sucks that Colm Meaney wont be back though. or will he??? *makes spooooooky noises*

Farscape = Ben Browder in leather. What's not to like? ::goes off to a happy place::

The storylines are kick-ass, too. I love that the show veers away from conventional drama and heroes. I won't say anymore because I don't want to spoil you

Usually I don't like the main characters of the shows as much others (except in SGA) For example, in buffy or Angel. BUT, Ben Browder was truly wonderful in Farscape! He can truly make the classical hero type work.

No leather yet, but I can't wait! I've seen a few later eps, and know some stuff, but thanks for not spoiling me :)

My favorite scene: john and McKay meeting the Colm Meeney character in the tunnels. McKay is really freeking out! I love David Hewlet's acting in that!

Big ol' brain *g*. I loved some of the dialogue and interaction in the episode, it was the decisions I questioned.

I hope you do make a trip back here. There is always a bed with your name on it.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :) And yes, more travel is definitely on the cards, even without CFTC.

LMAO. You noticed all the same things I did!! Pretty pretty Lorne who I knew they couldn't kill off. And Teyla's new top! Which I totally loved. And Ronan who is just hot and really doesn't even need to open his mouth as far as I am concerned.

As always Sheppard is hot and is so doing Mckay! *nods* And "That's Lt Colonel Errand Boy to you"!!! Me loved!!!!!

Ohhh, Farscape!!!! Ben in leather!! And also, Claudia Black, who is seriously hot and therefore they make up an actual cannon!het ship that I like...

There was some very good stuff in the episode, it's just the actual plot and the actions that they took that I didn't like *g*.

Mmmmm, I can't wait to get to the Ben in leather eps, and I love John/Aeryn so much.
