Sparky is on screen. Therefore, it is canon.Elizabeth is still out there. And John WILL bring her home.
School supplies: Pens. Pencils. Parachute. --> Hee I love that!!!!
Fits John's sense of humor, doesn't it?

Just started to write it and... Define bashing please.
So saying TRW is an affront to physics will get me some reds here?
No, because there is 'less' sci-fi in this ep (it's based within a human body, not on some faster than light spaceship), and I assume for starters an EMP of that magnitude would have killed her.
Calling Sheppard an idiot (or worse) may prompt a few frowns though.
Just try not to harsh on our squee, dude.
Not gonna happen in the story I'm writing and in my other stories I'm trying to write him as something that at least looks like a soldier in the position and responsibility that Sheppard has - of course I'm getting into a stiff fight with the part of my brain that makes me write on-character (but the canon version of Sheppard definitely deserves the designation 'Idiot' and 'Darwin Award candidate')

Nooooo. Not like that - EMPs don't kill people like that (mainly because the EMP is over before it can do any real damage). There's something else.
Well, I was almost spoiler free for this. All I had heard was that Weir was imprisoned by an enemy. I was expecting the Wraith, and was wondering exactly how incompetent her usual contingent of marines actually were in allowing her to be captured. Plus I hadn't seen Progeny at that stage (can you believe I actually forgot to watch an ep of s3??).
Also, my tv reception at that stage was ****, so to me, everyone looked like blurry John, and I couldn't even see a face in the window
It as such a good ep, the thought that crossed my mind that I didn't want her to wake up. It just highlighted how they'd wasted Torri. An alternative for early s4 could have been for her to revert back to this state, and live blissfully until 6eps down the track they figured out how to kill the nanites.
I tried so hard not to ship Sparky, as I figured they'd go with the other one, but you just cant help it with this one. It's not just her reactions to him, its his reactions to her as well. Breaking the quarantine makes no sense at all - how did he know that was going to help? What a risk to take, especially when it was more likely to have the complete opposite effect for both of them.
Anyway, I think others have summed this ep up pretty well, so i'm gonna stop there

Really? A massive pulse like that when she nanites in her body? I was assuming the nanites would become irradiated, killing her over time. Can you tell I don't have PhD in either biology or physics

The ones that survived the initial pulse got pissed off and tried to kill Lizzie. What I do not understand is how Lizzie managed to shut them down with her willpower only (that scene made me laugh VERY hard)
See, you don't need me. I forget we're not all up on US culture. But better to leave gaps than to insult people with over explaining. And for a change, the Wiki article seems pretty accurate.

Visit us at SGA Rising for our version of season six.
Over the summer I had watched the episodes of Stargate Atlantis, with this ship I see a lot of Sam/Jack in it. The Real World was a good one also the one were john gets stuck in a time portal can't remember the name. On another note I know this is coming kind of late, but is it just me that ever since Ghost in the Machine episode John has been acting like his old self again, he kind of lost it in season four, but bringing it back in season five. The old self is that I mean sarcastic comments, risk taking, caring more about team members, it like he is coming out of his bubble he has been in for a while, that episode seemed to be the catalyst.
With the FranWeir I still not quite sure what to think, but I thinking it was not Elizabeth, because of certain theme music for the character. I kind of agree with Woolsey that the replicators altered her conscienous. Also the Ausurans are always trying to prove they are human, but they are still machines. This is what I feel so far about this whole story line.
All of the above statments are merely my own opinion unless otherwise stated.
