Happy fangirl!  
Janet! She was back! Sadly, it wasn't as the leather-clad vixen who gets the hero that Teryl wanted her to be, but it was Janet! Man, I wish we'd seen lots more of her. Martouf! He was back! Man, wish we'd seen lots more of him. Cameron - we did see lots more of him. No complaints. Nope. :)

Like, who made the writers sit down and actually watch old episodes? *sniffle* It was like old friends week. I'm such a marshmallow. I watched both airings no matter how much the coyness makes my eyeteeth hurt.

Battlestar Galactica was crackling. Methinks that Baltar is going to learn the truth of, "no good deed will go unpunished." Interesting choice there at the end. Hmmmm.

Did I mention how thrilled I was to see Janet and Martouf? Happy, happy day.

I avoid spoilers so much that I didn't even know that this was the Janet episode. :) And I didn't know that Martouf was coming back until the credits were rolling. JR! He is a lovely man and he has lots of funny stories.

The little bunnies in my brain still want to rewrite the episode so that Janet and Martouf had meatier, more meaningful roles but I was just so happy to see them. The room full of Sams was amusing. I guess we didn't get a room full of Daniels, Teal'cs, and Camerons because our televisions would explode from the hotness. That's my wank and I'm sticking to it.

Sure wish we could leave behind the status of Sam's sex life (I notice the bed partners for the men never got a mention) and the little boy sniggering coyness that seems to accompany the references - but I've given up on that. At least they left it so each fan can fill in the blank for herself. If we must obsess on who Carter is having sex with, I prefer this to beating me over the head with it.

All in all, I was just so happy to have seen Janet and Martouf that I didn't give a fig about most else. The constant references to old episodes made me a very happy fangirl (omg! they actually pulled out the old AU and quantum mirror episodes! Or the synopses, at least!). And since we've now established in canon that characters can come through without suffering entropic cascade failure, I want Janet back. Permanently. :)

(I'd sure like to have heard from the alternate Daniel who was in on the evil plot, though, about *his* motivations 'cause that doesn't jibe with how I think of his character. Well, of any of them except perhaps Teal'c and his, "our reality is the only one that matters" philosophy.)

If we must obsess on whom Carter is having sex with... Much better.
