Seriously, if they keep on going in that raet, I'll run out of positive adjectives to describe SGA episodes.

Zelenca should wear more shirts liek that. He looked so lovely in the PJ! *shallow* very amusing moment there with Ronon and Sheppard and Zelenca. Now that's the kind of little character moments SGA needs.
So they actually can fit Teyla and Ronon into an episode! Hooray! There's hope for them yet...

I just loved Rodney and the whale. I half expected him to call it "Lassy" (sp? Y'know, the dog.) but I guess "Sam" works out as well, mwahaha. Entertainiend by Sheppard being creeped out by it. Overall Sheppard and McKay were lvoely in this episode! When they're checking for the lab, and Rodney doing all the handsigns.... Or in the infirmary, with the "Celine Dion is overrated! Zelenca is smarter than you!" ha!

Silly flashbacks/ warnings, I must admit, but it really was nice how it all tied up together.

So, SG1's now got 2 out of SGa's ZPMs. Wonder when they'll mention it, prolly in Line in the Sand?

I was surprised they had any money left whatsoever for visual effects in this episode, after the amazing sequences in The Return 2, but they were still great. Silly solution, and yet they were great. Both the sun and the whales. We should have more whale episodes.

Yup, definitely shippy vibes from Ronon and Teyla there.... sigh. I'mnot sure I'm happy with it, I'd have lived so much better without any ship whatsoever - especially not the John/Teyla/Ronon/Elizabeth hectagon they're creating.
Speaking of Elizabeth, loved her again in this episode. She's so lvoely So was Carson... who didn't have a large role in this but whatever he had he was lovely in.

The only thing I didn't like: Hightmeyer. She's getting on my nerves. Kill her! Now! please? Or no more psychologist episodes. Please please? Pretty please?

Other than that... fantabulous. I officially name Carl Binder a minor deity ;)

I was also very pleased that Teyla and Ronon actually did something in this episode.

Why would Meredith name the whale-fish Lassy? I wasn't sure why Shep thought it was as creepy as he did....

I think that the stream of plasma was meant to fan out and become a sort of wave front...

What is a hectagon? Do you mean a parallelogram, perhaps a rhombus? I know of a 'hexagon'.... but that has six sides... whistling.gif

Let's hope they keep it up that way - at least Ronon and Teyla would finally et a point! *hopeful*

Grace Under PRessure.... at some point he goes liek "an alien whale and I treat him like Lassy" ;)
Without the background (i.e knowing why Sam comes to Rodney's mind when he thinks of hte whale) I do see why Sheppard would think it creepy, tho smile.gif

A Hectagon is a polygon with 100 edges... I was going for the "too much ship!" angle smile.gif
