What an amazing blog! Michael is so funny and really, really honest.I love that he knows just how much we hate being talked down to, he knows how smart most of the fans are. I remember a con where PDL thought he had to explain what the word chimera meant!! He seemed really surprised to learn that everyone already knew what it was.

OMIGOD, can you imagine if they'd gone with that Wolsey scene? Agree it would've been a step too far.
Interesting to read MS disagreeing with directions taken by TPTB. He seems to speak sense as well, especially about Daniel's rant at the museum. Explains why it seemed so out of character.

The man speaks the truth. Bad Guys was absolutely rubbish.

Michael is well known for always speaking the truth, even when it has upset a few people. I love that about him. He has never been one to toe the party line, never been just a mouthpiece for tptb. With Michael, what you see is what you get.

Actually, I thought it was one of the best episodes of the season-definitely one of the few I could find myself rewatching. Each to their own, I guess.

Bad Guys was a good Stand Alone funny ep I thought. I love MS blogs I love that he is so honest. I hope he gets to be on another show permantly so we keep getting these blogs. I can't wait to see what he says about Dominion and Unending. I wonder what he will say about Family Ties.

Interesting latest blog he has. I was wondering what brought on the mention that he's quite sarcastic and that people should take it with a grain of salt (and if they disagree with something he says, to speak up). I haven't been following the readers' comments to his other blog entries - was anything said there that might've prompted him to say that?

Or am I just getting it wrong and it's a preface to his comments about Bad Guys?

Just curious.

wow very honest, i wonder if the extra 22 mins will be put on to the dvd, i'd kinda like to see that

I guess today's is his last blog. He made me cry....but in a good way.

I wonder why he stopped the blog. I found them enjoyable.

Thank you MS for all the years of SG-1 and the personal insights.

I thinkthe blog was designed as complement to the end of Stargate Sg-1. Now that the show is done, gone, etc., interest will wane from the general TV Guide visitor, who might go "um, who?" I think it's nice though that they let Michael have one as it sound like they just hand 'em out to anyone who wants one, otherwise we'd have Paris Hilton griping in a blog about 1 sheet rough toilet paper

"Unending." An appropriate name for [an episode of] a show that has ended, been critically bashed, changed its cast and been written off by so many. And still we survived with a new tomorrow. Forgiveme, but NEENER-NEENER-NEENER!"
