There was so much ship in this episode!! Enough to make any fangirl happy :) I especially liked Teyla's conversion with Dr Hewson at the beginning. They gave absolutely no hints as to who the guy was so you could pretend it was anyone (in my world it's probably Rodney-so the clueless thing fits in well) Plus it was good to see a more playful relaxed Teyla
This would have to be one of my favourite episodes for the season so far. They manages to include a lot of things and there were plenty of twists that I wasn't expecting. But they also seemed to use the episode to gve a commentary of social issues, especially Warner's speech about female mutiliation. Not that what she was saying wasn't totally valid it just seemed a bit weird the way she told Elliot and Olivia about it, it didn't really seem natural
I wonder if they any give any counselling or support to the poor people who seem to find bodies all over NY?
Obviously I'm not a huge fan of the Foo Fighters, but I probably would have enjoyed it more if I had of known more of their songs. I downloaded their current album a couple of days before the concert but I only managed to listen to the songs once or twice. But then I found with their older songs, especially the singles, all that I really knew was parts of the chorus. And really concerts just aren't as fun when you don't know or even recognise the songs!
Ok so in the end they man chasing Tommy down the street had absolutely nothing to do with him, but the writers really made him seem suspicious. He didn't really seem like the kind of guy that would care if he saw a small boy running down the street, even if he was covered in blood
Man, that little boy scout was eager. Actually it's quite sad that when he discovered a girl that he thought was hurt, his only concern was about getting another badge. I think people need to start teaching their kids that extracurricular activities, especially sports, really aren't that important in the general scheme of things. And they teach kids how to use GPS, what happened to compasses??

Overall this episode was pretty good. There were a couple of moments where I thought they were just going to use the old clieched twists, but they actually managed to come up with some new stuff for this episode, which was good :)
I liked this episode, it was a good stand alone story. It was kind of creative in that the team was separated, but they were all still communicating, so it was still a team episode. But it seems to me that there are too many civilisations with technology in Pegasus. I though that when they met the Genii Teyla explained how the Wraith wouldn't let any society to develop technologically??
The first scene seemed a bit pointless, considering it was going to be repeated at the end of the episode. I mean it can be a really good story telling technique, but only if you've got a really complex story and you want to confuse the audience. But the story here seemed sufficiently simple that it wasn't necessary
Now that is very cool, building inside a crater in a moon. But it didn't really look like a moon, it looked more like an asteroid. But I guess if it was oribiting a planet, it would be a moon
I liked this episode, it seemed much more creative than some of the others that have been made lately. And there was no involvement from Homeland security, which is always a good thing! I would have like it if they have of continued more with that group that Tina was involved with but anyway
For one horrible moment after that girl fell out of the elevator and stuck her head underneath it to see where her handbag had gone I though that the elevator was going to fall down and decapitate her, but freak accidents like that generally don't happened in L&O, it's usually intentional. Plus that guy who got on the elevator with her was kind of creepy, I also thought that she might have ended up as the victim.
I think the rest of the team was missing the point of Rodney's ethical dilemma question. I suppose it is understandable that Ronon and Teyla didn't get it, but John was obviously just trying to work Rodney up. I don't know why Rodney didn't add to the scenario that the 10 people were tied to the train tracks
It was good to get a bit of Radek's backstory, even if it did seem a bit stereotypical with the candles because they couldn't find lights. BUt he seemed completely blase about the fact that his brother burnt the house down! Obviously Rodney was supposed to be irritating the way he kept trying to talk about his past and dismiss Radek's story, but in some ways Rodney's story may actually have been sadder because of his relationship with his father. If they lost power for the city, they might have to abandon it & they might end up living in tents in the middle of winter, unless the gated back to Earth. I think Radek was flirting with that female scientist when he was teasing Rodney about reprogramming the Replicators. Nice multi-tasking :)
SVU seems to be recycling a lot of the same storylines over and over, and ones involving the war in Iraq have to be amongst the worst offenders. I know that the writers want to explore current issues but really there has to be other issues in America, not everything is about Iraq. Though I suppose the one good thing is they seem to be against it and aren't trying to say that what they are doing is good and everything is working out ok
This entire episode was just made by the girl who played Katie, she was absolutely amazing. I think too many actors would focus on the mentally challenged part of the character, but this girl made her really loveable. The basic premise of the episode was a good one, but I think that including the whole FBI/Patriot Act wasn't really necessary, and the episode would have been just as good without it
It was definitely a confrontational way to start the episode, a girl wearing a blood covered nightgown running on the road. Having the 911 operator questioning the validity of the call was a new one.
I am a little concerned about assignments. In the past I've done up to 5 assignments a semester, which I could manage, but they were spread out a bit more, all four this semester are pretty much due in April. Lecturers always seem to work on the basis that their's is the only class you have to do work for
I think I've got a really good selection of subjects this semester. Consitutional supposed to be boring, but I actually find it kind of interesting, always have. I've been wanting to do international law since I started by degree, so it's great that I'm finally able to do law electives. Um Admin of Criminal Justice I think is going to be fairly easy considering there's no substantive law that I need to learn, it's just really discussing issues within the criminal system, but that may mean I need to remember criminal law from first year :( I have no doubt that equity is going to be the most boring subject, but since practically every subject I've done up until now has involved equity to some degree, I think there's a ot of the course that I'm already going to know, which which also make it easier when it comes the the stupid closed book exam that they've decided to introduce for the first time...
I think the team needs to stop relying on the Athosians opinions of people. Whenever they go to a planet recommended by the Athosians they end up getting in trouble. But by the way the team was joking about this 'superhero' it seems like they're learning not to take everything at face value. And Ronon seems to be getting more relaxed, especially with the way he was joking about how this superhero was probably one of his people. Ok I know I've said this before, but why is Carson going on missions with John's team like he's a permanent member or something?? Obviously it was useful when they arrived and Carson was testing Lucius, but they didn't know that he was going to be there
Hey Melissa Joan Hart! It's the first time I've seen her do anything serious. Besides Sabrina the only things I've seen her in have been romantic comedies. Maybe not the greatest perfrmance I've every seen, but she was still fairly good, I think it had more to do with the character being fairly reserved
Ha, sulky Ronon. You got to wonder why he agreed to go the mainland (I guess that's where they went) with Radek in the first place when he clearly as no time for scientists. Maybe he thought that being on the Lantian mainland, Radek would be perfectly safe, leaving him to go hunting. Radek seemed so relaxed, except for his slight fear of Ronon at night, it was nice to see. Lol they lost the city. But if the sensors in the jumper were screwed, how did Radek then find Atlantis??
It's weird to see Woolsey with a gun and trying to pull off stealth. But at least he seems to be learning from his mistakes when he realises he would have revealed his position if Jack had of been a Replicator and recognises the fact that he isn't very good at the whole thing. Of course that attitude was kind of ruined when he complained about the food Jack had brought back for him. But Jack's got a comeback for everything :). However I think he realises that maybe his standing orders to nuke Atlantis weren't such a good idea when he was also in danger of being nuked, or maybe he was just resigning himself to the fact that he was going to die :(
