Technical difficulties may not be temporary. This is going to be a really strange rewatch experience for me tonight. My computer had a semi-meltdown a couple of days ago, so it's now in the hands of my BFF who I hope will be able to fix her. As I've been watching all of the epis during the rewatch using its DVD player and commenting on a word doc, I couldn't do that. So, earlier, I watched The Seer on my large screen TV (whoa, what a difference ... though I'm going to have to adjust the skin tones, lol) and now I'm using a borrowed desktop (NOT in the same room as the TV) to write my impressions. Disjointed, yes, but still better than no rewatch at all. Not only that, but I couldn't split the epi into my usual 14-minute segments, because I had no idea where they occured. ::sighs::
Okay, so I had the BEST of intentions to participate tonight but I'm only about one-third in - not that I can really tell - and can't keep my eyes open. It's a shame because I thought there was a lot of terrific stuff in this epi. So I'm heading off to sleep and will report in the morning ... uh ... let's just be cautious and say tomorrow.

I'm sorry to hear about your computer difficulties. Those are always aggravating.

I hear you on the rewatch difficulties, too. I've been having a frustrating time ever since they took them off Netflix several weeks ago. I am an Amazon Prime member, so I can still get them for free, but in such a way that it makes it much harder to do reactions. I won't bore you with the details, but I basically have to watch the episode, and then do the reaction, so it's been harder to get as detailed as I have in the past.

Good luck getting enough sleep. I hope you get caught up. Love the icon, btw, and it's certainly perfect to your post.

I think we BOTH deserve a hug (pretty sure you'll approve of my choice, especially as it was unscripted and REAL of the two actors hugging as they finished their final scene together) dealing with our rewatch difficulties. As you can see, I managed to get caught up ... but what a lot of writing without benefit of the visual cues.

I don't know whether this would help you, but I couldn't do my rewatch/review without GateWorld. They're at www.gateworld.net with further categories depending on which Stargate show you want to check up on.

Okay, now back to other stuff I need to get done today.
