John Sheppard Whump

[Linzi]

Do we? I'm getting confused... where do we know that from?

JM talked about it on his blog a while back. I'll try and find the quote.

[bebop]

Keep the brace on, Bebop! Don't take chances with it.

!

I will, thanks Lorr.

*giggles* I saw your post when I did flyby and had to stop myself snorting Women should just not snort.
?

Sorry, I had Eurovisionhead for a moment..it sort of just took over!!!!

Well my TMC speculation is that

Spoiler:

the friction arises as a result of them making an alliance with the Wraith (most probably led by Sheppy and his CG mate)

Yup, I'll go with that..but.

Spoiler:

I reckon that Ronon swings out at nothing in temper and catched Shep by accident. I really don't think that he would hit Sheppy on purpose.

Congrats on 5,600 posts, Roo!!!

From me too!!!

Congrats on 5600 Roo!

And speaking of milestones, I just hit 900...

WooHoo PJ...go girl!

Just watching MacGyver on Sky and in the first ten mnutes he's been whumped twice, tied up, strung up and beaten with blood I might add and to top it all off he's been shirtless.

*wants that for Sheppy*

They're showing the whole series right from the beginning and I'm recording the lot!!....and yes...WANT SOME OF THAT FOR SHEPPY!!

Hi from Vancouver:


We are here, internet is working and in 23 hours we will be on set. We got in really really late like 4am which is 7am our time. So we were really tired. We are off to do a dry run to the studio and Wed and Thur hopefully tour Vancover by way of location sites. We will be a heck of a lot less nervous on Wed and Thurs.

Knightie and Salty

Yay!!!!!....have the best fun peeps and tell us all the juicy bits asap!

Well to try and keep the thread on topic we have been grading eps out of 10 for their whump...so we can find which season gave us the most whump satisfaction

So far the average scores are:

Rising 4
H&S 1
38 Mins 10
Suspicion 5
PTW 0
Underground 0
Home 1

Hmm....yup, that'll be a 0 points for PTW, a 0 points for Underground and probably a 2 points for Home for me, cause at least they are all unconcious..

Congrats to
Roo on 5600!
PJ on 900!
Salty on 2500!
GG on 8600!

Oh, I forgot to congratulate milestoners! *facepalm* Congratulations to the above.

Spoiler:

OT:
Torchwood starts in a couple of weeks Down Under - I've heard some good reports, so I'm looking forward to it.

[Linzi]

Phew, finally found the quote from JM's blog, ALI. I should really have noted this down and I'd have saved myself a long read through JM's entries!

Spoiler:

I stalled out on page twenty-five - not so coincidentally, the scene in which the team seeks the explanation to a stunning revelation. This, of course, would be followed by the scene in which the team privately comes to term with said revelation. Tough, tough scenes in which I have to reveal…


So, I wondered if the news the team have to come to terms with in some how creates tensions, leading to the possible spat between Shep and Ronon

Congrats to
Roo on 5600!
PJ on 900!
Salty on 2500!
GG on 8600!

I agree with the votes so far today. Overall, a sad lack of whump

I'm all a-tingle with anticipation for you, knightie and Salty!

Thanks Lorr!!
yep cant wait to see what spoilerish delights salty and knightie bring back. im so jealous though!!
i was thinking about season 1 last night....there really wasnt that much whump that i can think of, but then we had 38 mins and TDO which were gloriously whumpy....

Congrats too 5600 Post Roo!!!!!

Thanks sherry!!

JM sounded really fed up in his blog! No spoilers, and he was feeling cranky. Spoiler of OT

Spoiler:

In one answer he's talking about maybe writing a book next year, depending on how things pan out, and I'm wondering if the viewing figures for Sunday, which he gets on a Monday afternoon were disappointing again. I haven't heard anything about the ratings yet, but if they were good, I think JM would have said so. Oh well, no point in being down, is there? It's out of my hands, and if SGA does get cancelled, it won't be a big surprise. I really blame SciFi though. The 7 month hiatus has been near disastrous, IMHO. GRRRRRR!!!!

he did didnt he, poor guy!
i will be so pissed if atlantis is cancelled because of the BEEPS at scifi...season 4 sounds so great it would be such a shame for that hard work to go to waste....im not ready to let go of atlantis yet....
when did they say they would decide atlantis would be renewed or not do we know??

Congrats to
Roo on 5600!
PJ on 900!
Salty on 2500!
GG on 8600!

Thanks pocus!!!!

Hi Roo!

I think he said it'd be decided early in season 4's airing scedule. So, presumably after the first few episodes. I think he said he thought it'd depend more on the season 3 ratings which isn't good! So presumably in the early Autumn?

the trouble is that all the networks seem to be idiots about this months-long hiatuses which is probably losing audiences across the board. season 4 is a done deal but season 5 probably won't get considered for renewal until the fall, and probably BEFORE season 4 even airs, which is pretty inane, but that's TV for ya.

hi linzi!!!!!

thanks for that!! i just hope it gets renewed....ill be so disappointed if it doesnt! im hoping they wont cancel it because they want to do that 3rd spin off and i think they need atlantis to still be around to keep the franchise going whilst they work on that...plus as joe says 5 seasons is better than 4!!
scifi would be idiots to cancel it i think....what would people be left with..painkiller lame....i mean jane which gets even crapper ratings than sga!!

im hoping because it was partly those idiots who work at scifi who wanted atlantis tptb to bring over people from sg1- SAM..and probs get rid of weir, that they will wanna see how the decision works out before cancelling it...the big shake up for season 4 wasnt just because tptb wanted to mess around with the show they know they need something big to get people interested and stay with it.

im err trying to be optimistic can ya tell lol

Painkiller Jane seems to have bombed, especially as I'm sure it got plenty of promotion etc... ECW (Did I get that right?) seems to get the highest ratings! Strange that it's on a scifi channel...

I'd be heartbroken if SGA gets cancelled personally, I keep wanting to be positive, but with BSG finishing, which seems to have been mutually decided by the execs of that show and SciFi, I can't hold out much hope for SGA, unless MGM can do a deal with SciFi which they can't refuse. Personally I don't think the third series will ever see the light of day. I can't see SciFi wanting it, and I don't know who else would.

Thanks hon. I remember him making that entry but found the whole A, B, C etc bit so confusing and vague that I didn't deem it worth adding to the spoiler comm! I must have overlooked the other bits...

Well, not surprisingly, in light of spoilers we've had since that entry, I can think of at least 3 different scenarios that fit the A,B,C,D thing, none of which are probably correct!

yeh i was really shocked that BSG got cancelled since everyone flippin raves about it (cant stand it myself) and scifi channel promoted it to the high heavens..and ECW all i can is WTF??!!!!

apparently they dont want proper scifi shows on the SCIFI channel anymore...GRRR!!!

Im just gonna have to keep everything crossed for atlantis to be renewed.
