Excellent episode...
*Bought the whole giant storm thing and loved the lightning rod solution McKay and Zelenka came up with. Those two are worth the price of admission. The hurricane looked just like the weather channel these days.
*Nice tie-in between the Manarans and the Genii. The capture of Atlantis by Kolya (a loose cannon if there ever was one) was very tense
*Love McKay clueing Shep in and Sheppard and Kolya's cat and mouse game at the end. It was nice to see Shep in action again.
*Teyla's end of the story was a little duller but a good way to keep them out of the picture for awhile. I assume Beckett was in charge of the jumper because he has the ancient gene and was piloting.
*Sheppard and Weir were both very good in this episode. Weir was brave, smart and I bought her as a commander standing up to Kolya
*Wonderful tension and pacing in this episode.
*Excellent effects. I'd missed seeing more of the city and the planet and it was nice to see all those sets used effectively in this episode.
And now for a three month wait!Life is hard...and it's harder if you're stupid

I know they couldn't have planned this but seeing a fictional hurricane after all the real ones the last few weeks was odd. On that note however, did anyone else think "trailer park" when the Puddlejumper occupants decided to wait out the storm.
I love Rodney more than ever but that boy needs to work on his poker face.

What was good:
a. Good dialogue, esp. between McKay and Zelenka, McKay and Weir, McKay and Sheppard...okay, make that McKay and everyone, actually.
b. Brilliant cliffhanger, the kind that everyone (moi included) complains about and (mostly everyone) reads spoilers for and predicts fantastic endings of and generally can't wait for.
c. Thanks to the break, (grr) my Fridays are now actually open, or so I'm told. What? People do something besides Stargate on Friday evenings? Why wasn't I alerted? Did I miss that memo?
d. Plot. Great. Period.
What wasn't so good:
a. Beckett. Look, I like the poor guy. Him being the damp (no pun intended) rag on the jumper drove me nuts. I can understand his reluctance to sally forth, but he seemed too emphatic for my refined palate.
b. My Fridays are now free. What excuse will I have for being a recluse, now? Reruns? They'll never buy that. Maybe I can tell them I missed that memo, too.
