Why the heck do I keep watching Stargate SG-1? It must be masochism.

In episode 8.18, "Threads", Jack sleeps with a female CIA agent. Argh. I'm blind now, blind and stupid. It started out so nice with Jack refusing to even entertain the thought that Daniel might be truly dead, and then this.

WTF was that all about?!

edit 1: Michael Shanks has definitely perfected his "manic hamster" look. Oops.

edit 2: The CIA bimbo had at least one advantage, and that was stopping Sam from throwing herself at Jack again. Gah. Can't she finally marry and stop this embarrassing dance?

Hey, it looks like it, I swear! *g*

Inflated cheeks, wild eyes, wrinkled nose, and then the hair color...

Hamster. *nods seriously*

ROFL! ROFL! ROFL!
That's probably the best expression I've ever heard... it's *so* true.

I know. The less said about MS' acting abilities, the better...

I keep on forgetting to watch. I'm kind of glad.

... which I'll stop doing once
a) Sam and Jack get together, or
b) Jack is no longer in the series.

It sounds like that'll be pretty soon. *g*

Well... they've had a good run. ><;

Hmpf. At least a long one. 8 seasons? Impressive. As for the quality of the series... I think it jumped the shark pretty early when it went to SciFi who put interpersonal relations on the backburner for more CGI effects. Not that I'm an SG-1 expert, though. :-)

Overall, I thought most of the episodes were satisfactory...

Well, perhaps. But "satisfactory" isn't exactly what they should be aiming for.

I watched "48 hours" yesterday because I wanted to get that first glimpse of McKay, and was pleasantly surprised at a non-wisecracking dumbass!O'Neill who appeared competent, serious and deserving of the birds he wears.

Lately, Jack's been nothing but the class clown, and I cannot buy the idea of someone like that holding the post of a General.

Jokes are nice and well, but I'd like to be able to believe that Jack's IQ is significantly higher than Forrest Gump's.

And don't even get me talking about Daniel whose sole job now seems to consist of providing addition brawn to Carter's intelligence. Huh? Daniel running around showing his biceps and being among the first to raid an NID hidey-hole?

His bitch-slapping contest with Claudia Black's character was even more embarrassing.

Finally, the "barber" episode was so unfunny I'm still reeling, weeks after the fact.

Ok, I'll stop now. *g*

I know! I'm all for character growth, but now that our nerdy friend Daniel has shed his glasses, cut his hair, and buffed out (and of course, most importantly, what you mentioned about him not being much more than an accessory as far as thinking is concerned)... he doesn't have the same something that we all fell in love with. ><;

Vielleicht sollte Daniel genau wie McKay mit "Kirk, Kirk, you are Kirk!" Sticheleien anfangen? *g*

Ich fand's OOC, aber andererseits... Jack hatte laut canon das letzte Mal mit Laira Sex, oder? Ganz schön lange ohne. Aber wir glauben ja, daß er mit Daniel OMGhotmonkeysex hatte und damit es ihm seit Jahren an nichts gefehlt hat. *eg*

Das macht McKay? Klasse! *LOL*

Na ja, vielleicht reicht ihm der Sex mit Daniel nicht mehr? :-)

Ja -- Du mußt unbedingt Dir die Originale reinziehen! Die deutschen Übersetzungen können dem snark factor nicht ansatzweise gerecht werden! *g*

Eher wohl anders herum, wenn man bedenkt, wie alt Jack inzwischen ist, und daß Daniel ja bald mit Ben Browders Charakter horizontale Gymnastik betreiben wird, wenn man die Scharen Farscape Fans bedenkt, die schon im Schatten lauern...

Gell, Dashan? *eg*

Irgendwie bin ich schon recht neugierig auf Ben Browders Charakter bei SG1. Ich meine, Jack ist nun mal sehr alt geworden und wenn so gar keine slashigen Szenen kommen (wenn er nicht mehr oder nur noch selten auftaucht), dann lass ich mich auch gerne auf ein neues Pairing ein. ^^
