Amnot Borg Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Very good. Action, mystery, Teyla kicking butt while pregnant. Finding her baby's daddy. Todd is back! Michael is back! Beckett is back! Carter got to be in the show. Yay! oops, did I miss any spoilers? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TetsuoShima Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Ye, imagine that, being pwnd by a pregnant woman... As for Beckett, there's been talk about him returning for ages, yet I was still surprised, didn't expect him to be in there. lol Was a nice introductory ep, it's clear though that next one will be more interesting. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFMF Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 hahaha! This was another brilliant ep. It was nice seeing the return of Todd, Michael, and of course (!!!) Beckett! Oh, and Carter in yet another episode - that's 3 in a row! :D As the story goes, it was nice how it built up slowly, and there were certainly some :O moments and unanswered questions there - always good! So yes, I can see this being a great season finale. Look forward to seeing how it turns out. :) "Finally, it's about bloody time! What took you so long??" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USWhoFan Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I don't think I can say much more than whats already been said. I liked this episode a lot and I look forward to seeing how it all plays out. So is Dr. Beckett a cylon, err replicator ;D, or not? The commercials seem to want us to believe he may not be.

Tenebrae Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I was watching this... and I had a good feeling, I think that Tayla's search for her people has been a nice element... Atlantis needs to do more of that sort of thing, although this season has been the best so far. Anyway... the first half was kind of the standard fare. Looking around and so on... we get the first hit - someone is randomly poisoning people... with the Wraith vaccine. I actually thought Genii for a while. You actually get the impression the Wraith are in kind of a bad way... I just wish that they'd elaborate upon it at greater length. All we really get are "Todd updates". It's kind of cool to have Todd be a recurring character. He's interesting, while the Wraith are still big ol' space vampires, him and Michael have at least made things a little bit more interesting. So, anyway, we had the random poisoning/disease turn out to be a rather more calculated plan... at the hands of Trip! I mean, Michael and he was behind Tayla's visions... both those things made sense... I'm still a little confused as to how he managed to go from exiled Wraith to bad guy o' the week to major baddie. Beckett, eh? That was kind of the cherry on top, wasn't it? A clone, perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Erm I voted "pretty good", this story did take some time to get going but was enjoyable. I think that there was abit of overjoy in seeing Todd, Michael and beckett back in one episode (especially Beckett far better as the stargate doctor than the plain jane doc). One question thought, until the daedalus got told not to destroy the wraith crusier surely they got at least two good hits with the beam weapon (if you recall the replicator ships only took one!).

Tenebrae Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Yeah, great example of plot powered weapons... and if I'd been Deputy Director Skinner, I'd have pulled the slag that missed TWICE, out of her chair and given her a slap. She was rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilander72 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 It's hard to judge a two parter, since this one is the build up ep, with a galactic pandemic as the major plot. Not much to consider in it yet and I have to admit that the Teyla 'visions' were a bit annoying (since I consider that 'magic' and not 'scifi'), but seeing Beckett appear in the end was a surprise. A Pretty Good given... EDIT: Almost for got mention that when I saw the name Connor Trinner appear I got a bit annoyed. I wish they would add the credits in the end, where they belong...

I wish they would add the credits in the end, where they belong... Same here, almost as bad as putting an episode preview in there (which I'm glad they don't), ruins the surprise - though you then think "ooo X is in it, wonder where they'll show up" and you start looking for when rather than it being a surprise. Good opener for a 2-parter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
