Actually, I like all three of them equally and love the way all three interact. So I agree with both sides of your debate! Also, its a return of the protagonists not being superpowers.

Court testimony revealed Jenkins confessed to Kruger's murder, as well as the murders of Jorge Cajiga-Ruiz, Juan Uribe-Pena and Curtis Bradford during a nine-hour-long interrogation, claiming that the killings were sacrifices to the gods, specifically Apophis.

Also, can we please call killings in Omaha "Omahamocides"? The obnoxious part of my brain wants this.

I made that joke on Facebook, and found out some of my friends watched SG1 that I never knew about.

I'm liking Jonas Quinn. He's just happy to be with SG-1 doin' cool stuff and seein' cool stuff. Except when he saw inter-dimensional space bugs, that episode sucked.

Season 6 episodes have started getting really grainy on DVD. I wonder if it's just the way SyFy transferred to DVD?

I seem to remember Jonas having a sort-of romantic vibe with Carter during his first few episodes and then that getting dropped.

Am I totally misremembering that?

Yeah, I totally remember that too.

Completely off topic, but did any one else find it weird that they portrayed Ronan as an uncivilized neanderthal throughout the series, yet he was from a relatively advanced planet as a high ranking officer in their army?

He ate mashed potatoes or something with his hands in his 2nd episode and didn't even know what fork was. Maybe it was the years of being a runner? I donno, I just thought it was kinda odd.

Yeah seven years alone and on the run from the wraith would explain that, and he wasn't really like that throughout the series, just his first few episodes.

Yeah that was the funny part. He's not stereotypical of his race, he just is that way.

So I just watched Continuum and that was a pretty good way to end the show. Although it paints the last couple of seasons weirdly if you consider it from the perspective of Mitchell always knowing about everything. Although it would sort of explain the fanboyish stuff from him when he was first introduced, unless I'm misremembering...

I actually laughed out loud when they tried to make him look like this elite fighter while he was training in that dark room with two dudes and the hot genii girl with curly hair. He looked ridiculous in that getup, bandanna and all.

Why would Mitchell know everything? He saved his grandfather but I would assume he would stay away from himself.

Right at the end there's a photo tacked to the inside of his locker of his grandfather and 'himself'. I don't see any reason for Mitchell to know about and/or have that photo without his grandfather sitting him down and going 'you know that photo that looks like it has two of me? Well there's a long story to that...' or something similar.

Plus everyone is wondering about what Ball meant about some doomsday plan, Teal'c is like 'we'll probably never know' and Mitchell goes "yeah I know we never will".

Seriously. This is what people who over-analyze this poo poo never realize-- This is exactly what it would've sounded like. Which part of aliens, Stargates, and time travel would've sounded plausible to someone who didn't experience each first-hand?
