FANTABULOUS!!!!!!!
FANTABULOUS!!!!!!!
It didn't quite go down as I expected but the ep was still great! Daniel was suitably creepy as a Prior and it is a credit to the writers/actors that I wasn't sure whether he was a good guy or a bad guy till the very end. I kept changing my mind! Jack was the Jack we know and love and it is good to see that RDA and MS still have that great chemistry. It was also notable that the whole team, with Jack included, really gelled. It was as though Cam and Vala had been there since the very beginning! Woolsey manages to exude that wonderful quality of an antagonist with good intentions and it was nice to see how the encounter with Kalek influenced his actions. (continuity alert!)
What else?....A reference to Jack's torture by Baal between Jack and Prior Daniel...It's about TIME! (More delicious continuity!!)
Vala's serious conversation with Daniel about trust with regards to the sheer scope of the situation. (I just love the two of them!!!)
Sleepyhead, Sunshine, and the Hair Ruffle.
Great lines that were too numerous to count.
All in all, the episode managed to surprise me/keep me guessing. The fact that it was filled with great character moments was the icing on the cake!!
Thus far, the second half of season 10 has had some great episodes. If Stargate has to go, at least it is going out on a high note. These episodes have certainly made me glad that there are at least the movies to look forward to!!
