Atlantis 514 - The Prodigal

Nov 22, 2008 22:49

Once again, I'm way behind in my watching of Atlantis (seriously, time just flies). But I'm beginning to get caught up. I just finished watching The Prodigal, and I must say it was one of my favorites so far this season.

I loved this episode, :D and so glad that Teyla got a bigger role in it. I do agree, I really love the Michael stuff. I was a little sad that he had to die. :( and Ronon was FUNNY, lol.

I'd totally do a SGA rewatch with you!!!! I always been meaning to do both SG-1 and Atlantis, but never seem to have a reason to, lol, so I'm on board for an Atlantis one if you do it. :D

It is sad that he had to die, but I can see it makes sense to do it, so there's a definitive ending to that storyline before the show is done. I think I actually prefer it that way.

Ronon was seriously fucking awesome in this. I LOVED him. (Oh, btw, did you hear about what happened to Jason?)

We should definitely do a rewatch together! I'd love to get as many people in on it as possible, then have a little discussion post for each episode. I think it would be a ton of fun. And I was also thinking of doing an SG-1 rewatch too, so we could do both. Not at the same time necessarily, but at some point. If it turns into a bigger group type thing, I was thinking watch a certain number of episodes per week, and then like I said, have the discussion posts. Although, I guess this could also get complicated quite easily if I'm not careful. Lol.

I did hear about Jason, :(

Yay for rewatches! Count me in whenever. :) It can be a little complicated but I think a couple of episodes a week works, with discussion posts. :)

Skipped the spoilers but I would love to do that. I've missed soooo much of that show its so sad. I may have to borrow the seasons from you when you're done.

Do you remember where you left off? I believe I have most of the episodes (all seasons) as real player files that I could look into getting to you...

Loved all the things you stated about this ep. Next to S&R and the Queen one of my favs for the season.

As for the show rewatch, SciFi is planning a marathon of the entire 4 season, plus 5 prior to the last ep.

Just FYI.

I really did fully enjoy this episode. :)

Oh, thanks for the info. Unfortunately I'm in Canada so I don't get SciFi. Our versin of SciFi (SPACE) is only airing like season 3 or something stupid, so I'm going to end up doing it off my DVDs I think. :)

i loved this one as well, and OMG i was thinking the same about Ronon and the marine/tech woman who's name escapes me :)

and i was sad but understanding on them killing michael it is the last season, but he was so interesting lol Teyla=badass :)

I think they did say her name at the end of the episode, but I didn't catch it. I may have to go back and check...

Scratch that, I just checked imdb. It's Amelia Banks, and she's a kickboxing instructor in real life. *g* Guh, still having the urge to fic them together! Lol.

I'm glad that the Michael storyline is wrapped up. As sad as it is to see him go, I much prefer this to having loose ends when the show's over.
