At least I think that's the episode title. Just watched the SGA pilot movie and I have three thoughts, none earth-shaking ( Read more... )

::waves::

are you joining the ranks of folks writing in SGA?

::blinks hopefully::

wags,
springwoof

::amused:: Probably not. So far, I don't have anything to say that hasn't already been said. And Rising puts me at, um, ::tries to count:: maybe five episodes in two seasons that I've seen? But I've got S. 1 on DVD and am slowly (very!) watching it. We'll see. Probably not, though.

springwoof April 9 2006, 21:24:40 UTC

okay.
was hoping, 'cause I'd love to see what you'd do with it...
enjoy the show, at least!

gryphonrhi April 9 2006, 22:03:09 UTC

::lol:: I'm fighting it, let's put it that way. Thanks, I am enjoying it so far. ::cheerful:: It's interesting watching a show after much fanfic.

1. Just once, I'd like to actually like a character Robert Patrick plays.

Two Words: The Unit

Because Tom Ryan is one sexy S.O.B.

gryphonrhi April 9 2006, 16:43:22 UTC

What's The Unit?

ann_i_blessing April 9 2006, 20:25:32 UTC

Tuesdays after NCIS. A Delta-force unit.

gryphonrhi April 9 2006, 22:02:30 UTC

Eh. ::shrug:: I don't find Patrick all that attractive, and somehow, I never like his characters. Nothing new there, drat it.

1. Just once, I'd like to actually like a character Robert Patrick plays. (Doggett had potential, but the scripts were execrable by then.)

But even with the awfulness of the scripts, there was the wonderfulness of all the Skinner/Doggett interaction.

::grins at you:: That was a rare bright spot in those, yes, but I'm a plot and continuity fiend. It just didn't make enough sense most of the time.

adonnchaid April 9 2006, 20:26:58 UTC

but I'm a plot and continuity fiend.

Bwaaahahahahaha!!! Plot and continuity? This was Chris Carter!

*snicker*

gryphonrhi April 9 2006, 22:04:30 UTC

::grins:: I know. Plot and continuity could be held together, with a lot of patience, until about the movie. Maybe into season 6. Maybe. ::shaking head:: If he had ever made up his mind to just do shows with no necessary continuity, it would have been fine.

Glad I gave you a good laugh!

Ooooh. Wait until you get to the SGC / SGA crossover ep 'Critical Mass.' The resulting similarities are.... Fascinating.

Miriel just got out of the shower and said 'Why didn't someone suggest that for the multiverse SGA Flashfic challenge?'

Which is a really, really good question, actually.

*mildly* "Let's see what happens, shall we?"

gryphonrhi April 9 2006, 16:46:01 UTC

Good question, and someone might yet write it. I can see Cordelia as descened from Weir, certainly.

What season/which show is that ep?

shrewreader April 9 2006, 19:08:11 UTC

SGA, season 2 ep 13 or 14.

gryphonrhi April 9 2006, 22:05:12 UTC

Ah, okay. I only have the Season 1 DVDs and Season 2 won't be out 'til November from what I'm hearing. Thanks though!
