starrylizard | SGA/SG1 and a few random questions

I finally watched the SGA episode 'Sunday' last night. I liked the character explorations a lot, but I just didn't like Beckett's death.

Of course I don't like that they killed him, when I thought he was to be a recurring character, but that's not what I mean. It ended up so melodramatic and just not right. Exploding Tumours? *sigh* If you're going to copy a scene from Grey's Anatomy, couldn't it have truly been just some live amunition or something?

I can completely buy him dying to save one man's life. I understand the fact that living in Atlantis poses risks no one can predict. All of that is great. I see where they are coming from. Even the exploding tumours could have been fine, but... Somehow, maybe they could have had the second guy explode while Beckett is triaging patients or something. I'm not a script writer, I don't know, but somehow it seemed very unsatisfactory. Or maybe it's just me not wanting Beckett to die.

*hugs her Beckett* I'll miss you.

So anyone gonna write us fic to explain John's previous marriage. Was he gay or did he discover he was gay? Did it just not work out with his always moving around for the airforce? Did she die and he doesn't like to talk about it? Did they marry young and it fell apart? Could he not express his feelings well enough and she thought he didn't love her? So many options there.

Elizabeth's love interest looks like Noah Wyle. Does he have a brother or something? I liked their interaction. It was sweet and very reticent on Weir's part. I loved the way Beckett ribbed her and was happy for her.

McKay and Katie Brown and the baby ferns. Dear Lord, the cute of it.

Ronon's idea of a game. Ha!

Biro! Radek at chess club!

And that last scene killed me. *hugs McKay and Beckett*

SG1 was just so cute with the Sam and Cam moments. Still waiting to hear about Daniel though. I really liked this episode, especially after watching SGA. Sam + Cam = so pretty and fluffy. I loved Vala jumping into Teal'c's arms too! I've really grown to love Vala and Cam. It's a pity it's the last season.

Some random questions for whoever feels like answering:
-In SPN, does the impala(sp?) get fixed after the episode "Reaper"? I have a fic idea and just want to know.

-In SG1, each time Daniel ascended, his body disappeared in a white light... yes/no?

I'm ignoring the SG1 parts. So I really liked SGA. I miss Carson, but I thought the rest of the episode was really good. :-)

And that guy looks like Noah Wyle.

He could be Noah's brother!!

*ignoring the SGA parts, I'm still two eps behind...*

I enjoyed SG-1. I think Vala is an absolutely fab character. Love her immensely.

And, to answer your questions, yes, the Impala does get fixed (Dean fixes it). This is going to bug me, so I have to comment, the ep is called "In My Time of Dying" not "Reaper" ;-)

As regards to SG-1, I think so...

Huh. Okay, so somewhere it said in big letters "Reaper". Maybe on the Ten website, because I usually don't even know episode names. I stand corrected then.

I want to write a story following from that episode, but it's an SGA crossover and not really much to do with SPN. Just my brain going to odd places. But it would be cool to have the Impala.

Cam made Sam biscuits!!! Squeee! So freaking teamy and cuteness! :)

I'll definitely be interested to read your crossover!!

Heee, yes, there was a lot of teamy cuteness

I am really missing Carson already. I can hardly stand to read fanfiction with him in it at the moment, its just depressing me. I was under the impression that he was "disappearing" and that there was going to be the possibility of him coming back (even if only once in a while). But this looks permanent to me. They had a body and everything (at least that was my impression). I was prepared to say a temporary goodbye. I wasn't prepared for this. *shakes fist at Martin Gero*
In SGA they do not have a lot of "soft" characters. Almost everyone else has a harder edge. Either through sarcasm, distant professionalism, or macho posturing. Carson was the one who wasn't afraid to feel. I don't know how they are going to replace that.

They seem to be giving Rodney a softer side these days, but that certainly won't replace carson and I wouldn't want them to make ROdney like that. I have no idea.

Do you think any of those new characters will remain in a "recurring" capacity. They introduced quite a few never before seen people. *shrugs*

I won't rant because it isn't me, but I don't get the whole killing Carson thing at all. I hope PM finds a really good new job.

They seem to be giving Rodney a softer side

Yeah, like with the whales. *smiles*

maybe a few. But I doubt it.

I don't feel like ranting either. I understand what the PTB are trying to accomplish. I guess I was just surprised at my emotional reaction. Of course I was expecting a little more hope for Carson returning.

I'm a tad upset with this season, because it feels like fanfiction. I really think there is someone out there feeding the writers what they think the fans want. But there is a reason I read fanfiction and it's a different reason to why I watch the show. I love the new team moments, but I do hope they get back into the regular swing of things, because it's getting on my nerves. Give me some good old wraith action or something. Surely team moments can be incorporated within it all.

Am I too whiny? Everyone else seems so happy with this season, so I've just been keeping quite. I have loved several of the episodes, but yeah. Not even sure what I'm saying. :P

I am one of the few people I know who hated Sateda. It felt forced to me. There were moments in it I liked, but the over all episode not so much. I'm liking the season overall, but I do know what you are talking about. There having been moments I've eye-rolled. I think the PTB realized that they had not been putting the little moments SG1 had into the first two seasons of SGA. So instead of working them in slowly and letting the relationships develop naturally, they are forcing these moments. Its the big grand gestures I don't like. Its lazy. We wouldn't have had to have an entire episode of "what they do on their day off" if they would have given us small glimpses every once in a while.

YES!!! That's what I mean.

I do like the season otherwise. But where s2 had almost nothing 'personal' for the characters. This season is just so in-your-face with it.
