Stargate SG-1 Rocked!  
I'll post some long comment later. Just gotta say that I loved Vala in this. I loved her interaction with the rest of the team and didn't mind that it was Daniel-lite. The story hung together, no huge plot holes smacked me on the head, and I didn't have to hang my disbelief by its neck to enjoy.

I haven't enjoyed an episode this much since Changeling

This show goes to 11. *wink* Sadly, I didn't get a lot of work done like I was supposed to, but who cares?

Yanno, I was watching and thinking, "I bet Kerri is liking this." This was exactly the Vala we were hoping, praying to see next season. Now that we know they can write her well, I hope they do.

Gee, you don't say? Shocked. Shocked I am. :)

I've sworn off some places after my vent the other day, but I just had to go check fan reaction for this one. I couldn't resists even though I knew exactly what i would find.

Mind you, I had some issues with some writing and directorial decisions. (I would have not liked to see Vala's fate after communications broke off--I think that would have been a great cliffhanger--and some parts were slow, but I looked at this not as a regular Stargate episode. I saw it more as exposition/lead-in material.) This was not just a set up for the finale, but also the writers way of softening Vala and giving us some character growth so that she can ease into next season as a regular.

As a Daniel fan, I don't need for every episode to feature him overly. I don't have an issue with less of him as long as it's done well. And it was. I have the same attitude for all of the characters.

Now, let's keep hoping for more of this Vala and a more balanced Daniel. :)

Oh, and best line ever? When Teal'c thought of Darth Vader when everyone else was thinking the Bible ;)

Yanno, that would have added to the tension. I'll agree on that point. Wish They'd left us mor ein the dark as to Vala's fate.

--and some parts were slow, but I looked at this not as a regular Stargate episode. I saw it more as exposition/lead-in material.

I think that I was typing virtually the same thing over at your LJ while you were typing this. lol!

As a Daniel fan, I don't need for every episode to feature him overly.

I feel very strongly that Season 9 has been a good one for Daniel screentime. I don't mind his absence in this light and in light of the fact that this wasn't a storyline that begged for his linguist/archaeologist/anthropologist skill set.

As for Teal'c, I'm beginning that this may, in fact, be the best season ever for him. I laughed so hard I missed the next few lines when he came up with Darth Vader. I heart Teal'c!
