*is watching SGU now* eli is great so far. But um, yeah, little racy for stargate no? Not that I mind but it makes for a slightly blushworthy experience when my dad decided he wanted to watch it with me
I'm okay with it too for now...I'll keep watching...if for no other reason but to catch Daniel's other appearances. Umm...I don't think I can do 'spoiler' quotes here like at GW...so I'll just put a SPOILER white space here if you're reading this and haven't seen SGU yet

Anyone else get a 'Daniel-esque' vibe from Rush? A tortured genius who's so curious and fascinated with something that he's willing to risk other peoples lives...i.e.- Daniel determined to investigate the Stargate despite not having any idea how to get O'Neil(with ONE 'L')and his men back to Earth
Well, Daniel didn't KNOW he wasn't going to be able to get Jack and the others back. He had assumed that the point of origin would be on the other side. Rush KNEW they wouldn't be able to get back b/c the Icarus base was going to be gone. He did it deliberately, AFTER shutting down the gate while it was dialing Earth. Rush, from I can see, is far more devious and 'other plan'-y than Daniel.
I will definitely say, though, that I did at times see how Rush was like Daniel. And also, I was thinking ahead to the future eps that Shanks is in. Unless I'm interpreting it wrong, DANIEL is the one who recruits Rush into the program I think. There is some sense of understanding there - Daniel 'trusts' him in some fundamental way, and I think that's important to remember.
'spoilery' speculation...I think there are a lot of hidden agendas. Here's'a an intriguing thought...Rush is a 'hard' scientist like Sam...why would Daniel, a 'soft' scientist be the one to recruit him...unless he and Rush are friends.
