Dr. Rush is a d**k

SGU: Awakening

So let's get this out there: Dr. Rush is a DICK. Seriously. Hard core. He's brilliantly played by Robert Carlisle of course. But damn. I hate that guy! I cannot believe he goes on and on (to himself apparently) that Col. Young is completely unfit for the mission. And he is playing GOD. Big time. It's just ridiculous. I wonder if he has space dementia or something. Cuckoo!

Huzzah for more of my beloved TJ/Varro 'ship. Oh those kids. They make my heart happy. And 'ship them I do. Isn't that right, angylone?! I love how they are being played and the progression. They have had a connection since he first came on board the Destiny. It's lovely. Poor Col. Young is just gonna be hit pretty hard when he realizes that TJ is well and truly not his...

I'm tired of HR (that is what I think of Camille) making this play about the Allutians (sp?) and the reasons for many of them to be in the Alliance. Yet this particular storyline is essential. And an interesting mirror to what we are experiencing in the real world. Just think of the the Allutians as those radical Islamists that perhaps get "drafted" or "forced" to go out and kill so many others (or themselves). I'm really interested to see where the writers take the story. Thus far there hasn't been much tolerance for them - as it should be. But the debates and arguments are well written (if annoying on a personal level). Good story telling. Still - Camille can be a real TOOL sometimes. Scratch that - most of the time!

Chloe is really beginning to creep me out.

We're gonna so see Telford again. I don't think his new buddies are going to be eating him or anything. I don't think they are truly harmful - or they would have killed the team and/or taken over the Destiny. Poor guy though.

Col. Young is onto Rush. I think he's waiting for Rush to actually unravel and shoot himself in the foot. He sort of has to - his track record in terms of Rush isn't one the civilians are likely to feel warm and fuzzy about. (Except maybe this civilian)

As dark as this show is, it's gorgeous. The colors and lighting are so beautiful. Very well shot.

So why aren't YOU watching SGU? Lol Of course, if all of you were, I have to wonder if I'd start to have those anti-show feelings that I get sometimes - like currently in regards to Glee!? (If you want to know what I mean, go read this post.
