First info on Atlantis's 'Runner' (Spoilers Inside)

[Llien'o Kcaj]

Is it just me or is the whole idea of the hunt a bit to much like startrek voyager. The Hirogen did the same thing

[Wass]

Does anyone know if this new Colonel is Air Force or Marines?

And who know he may be an old friend of Sheppard's.

There is no information on that yet so we simply don't know.

That's true but wraith are species who like to hunt there prey so it's natural for them to do this but it does have some resemblance to voyager.

The Wraith get bored, too.

Sounds more like "Predator" to me. Who gets to play Arnold's role?

I'm hoping they don't dump Ford as well. I don't think Rainbow had much of a chance to show any talent in year 1. A total revamp of the character is needed anyway - might be an interesting way to do it. Although with all the new characters they are bringing in, Ford may be reduced to a recurring role. We'll just have to wait and see!

Hmmm still recon it sounds like ST:V

[Orpheus]

From what was posted at pegasusgalaxy.com it sounds like Ford's going to just be a recurring character from now in,

Spoiler:

the way he "jumps into the transporter beam."

Or maybe not, maybe they'll get him back next episode and he'll be back on the team. I really hope so.

Yes, the spoilers are everywhere already, but Pegasus has the most concise listing.

It would be sad if Ford is gone - not dead, but gone - and they bring in the new guy. My hope is that Weir is still overall in control of the whole schebang, otherwise that new colonel could just make the whole thing military.

However, not sure where the two-part info is from.

can someone elaborate on what this resemblance to Voyager is all about? i watched the show, but can barely remember a thing about it (not a good sign, I'm sure!)

Be warned that the spoilers at PegasusGalaxy (friends of ours!) go all the way to the end of the episode and blow a couple of final-act (and final moment) spoilers.

Both species like to hunt there prey before eating them.

Try this link it may give you more of an idea about the Hirogens of ST: Voyager

Oh, you mean like a CAT. Why didn't you say so before?

I guess the Wraith would get bored, but it would bea small amount - the keepers, like the Marilyn Manson lady in "Rising." The rest are all sleeping.

I just thought of the episode 'The Brotherhood'. Ford got hit with a tranquilizer and the genii dude said he'd be out for hours or something like that. After that he immediately woke up. Could this mean he somehow already contracted this 'enzyme' causing him to not be affected by the tranquilizer slowly chaning into superford? Maybe I missed something but I thought that was weird.

Indeed, that does sound odd.
But to be honest, I won't miss Ford if he is reduced to a guest role.
I never liked the guy....and it might prove a nice moral dillemma for Sheppard.
Should or shouldn't he kill Ford ?
