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?

Well... to be honest, I've started a couple fandoms later and I usually like knowing what episodes to avoid. :)

For example, Babylon 5 has been off for years, and i still havne't watching Section Gray 21324.25235 or whatever it was is missing - nor have I watched Chimera. :)

But yes, I thought Vala was.... PLEASANT... this episode. I like Vala but too often she sucks all the air out of the room. Plus I was delighted to see that thye didn't stick her in black leather so the fan boys could ooogle her pregnancy enhanced breasts. :P

Oh, if anyone wants to know my opinion of what to watch or not, I'm never shy about saying whether an episode sucked and ought to be skipped. *g* Were I in [livejournal.com profile] darksylvia's shoes, I'd prefer to make up my own mind so I try to respect that. I know that my opinion is also wrapped up in lots of things I think I know about behind the scenes events so my biases color my opinions at times.

Wait - do I understand correctly that you haven't seen the SG-1 episode, Chimera?!? Um, do you have any idea the Daniel beefcakage you've missed?!? For that alone, I'd watch it again. And yes, I internally squeed like the dorky fangirl that I am when our tour in Vancouver took us by Daniel's house from that episode. I think the neighbors have no idea what to make of it all.

Claudia Black looks good pregnant. It appears to agree with her. She's one of those lucky women who only seem to gain where the baby is rather than getting softened all over. Vala was far more enjoyable and, for the first time ever, I felt the menace of the Ori. Yup, I liked this episode.

No great loss to have missed Babylon 5's "Grey 17 Is Missing" as it was probably one of the worst episodes, by far. JMS himself said it was experimental and that sometimes experiments fail. It was a pretty bad one, all right, though I wish I'd missed the one where Jack the Ripper comes to torture John and DeLenn. Between silly premise and torture, I wasn't well impressed.
