  1. Well, summer is about half over here. All I've been doing is drinking rum coolers (everyday at 4:20) and rubbing plenty of Noxema on myself. Good thing I don't sunbath nude!  :p

  2.  

    Guy fighting racism one day as a black man, before jumping bodies into a woman in the fifties to combat whatever the conflict is that episode, because of a future science experiment that isn't as easy to control as it should be, and making it feel REAL = Priceless.

     

    what could she be talking about ???

     

    Quantum Leap maybe?

  3. I thought Teal'c had just snapped as well (before I saw Threshold s5e2) but it didn't seem to be in his character. That's what really had me thinking. Threshold showed him in his early years up to becoming the First Prime of Apophis (replacing Bra'tac). Teal'c frowned on the practice of killing innocents and saved a fellow warrior destined to be killed by Apophis. When he saw that Apophis did not detect his disloyalty, he knew it was time to act. Hence, his switching of sides in the Stargate SG1 pilot.

     

    Regarding seasons 9 and 10, I've only seen a few episodes from those seasons (I didn't want to get into the later seasons, wanted to start at the beginning) but they don't compare to the early ones I've seen so far. I wouldn't call them crummy or anything though. More like they have a slightly different feel to them.

  4. WELCOME, to the WORLD OF TOMORROW!

     

    OR the forums. They're awesome. I just joined yesterday, and I think I'll hang around for at least a while longer.

     

    I love the rare bird thing you have going on.

     

    Thank you! (You sure got that rare bird thing quick - you must know Latin)

     

    Welcome to *twitch*, Tierkreis and Rara Avis! :)

     

    This place needs more females to keep the teen boys in line.

    QueenSpock can't do it all by herself. she tries, though.

     

    Actually, she´s only a small step away from world domination.

    Thanks! Not many females here I take it?

  5. This is probably old hat to you all but man what a series! I never watched it when it was on TV (don't know what I was thinking) so I decided to start by buying season 1. I'm up to season 5 now. In fact I just watched Threshold (s5-e2) and think it was one of the great ones for two main reasons. One it cleared something up that has been bothering me since I first watched the pilot episode. Namely, how fast Teal'c switched sides. Threshold certainly went more into depth in flashbacks nicely filling in the blanks. I was moved by Christopher Judge's performance as well as his friendship with his mentor Bra'tac (also told in flashbacks).

     

    Fantastic series! I'm as happy as a pig in poop!
