Yeah good point I think they called it the “ocean city” or something like that.

The only difference, is that the ones on SGA aren't hostile.

I loved this episode! Absolutely loved it.
But then, with two of my favorite characters occupying the main story, how could I not?
A tiny list of numerous things that made me laugh and/or smile at the same time:
- Sheppard and McKay. Oh, the joys of the witty banter. It's like they've been going on missions forever.
- "Don't let go of the controls!" Heh.
- Their mutual efforts in convincing Weir to let them investigate the Wraith ship.
- "I can't hear you threatening to suck the life out of me 'til you hit the button on the radio."
- "You've got to be kiddin' me!"
And then there were the more serious stuff which I equally enjoyed; particularly JF's and DH's performances throughout.
Hewlett was so great when he was reacting to Gaul having aged and when he heard the gun go off. And all the little reaction shots in between. I've said it before, but I'll say it again: He has such an expressive face.
And Flanigan was just awesome; playing mind games with the Wraith and challenging him the way that he did.
The only thing that I wasn't so fond of in this episode were the Glowy Alien Insects. (I know it's already been brought up, but I want to play too, so... ) Their remarkable resemblance with the insects from Prodigy kind of annoyed me. Are they supposed to be related to them in some way? Because otherwise they don't make much sense to me, except for them proving very useful in blowing up the almost impossibly hard-to-kill Wraith.
And I still think that Ford is in need of some serious character development. It's gotten better, but nowhere near enough, IMO.
Oh, and McKay to the rescue! That was excellent.Shin ~ def. A device for finding furniture in the dark.

Gentle plea for people to remember that while past eps of Atlantis don't need spoiler warnings in ep discussions, future eps do. If it hasn't aired yet, it's definitely a spoiler and should be tagged as such. Thankies.
And I still say the bugs were stupid. Sorry, and I don't care if there are some nitpicky little differences, they're still too similar for my tastes. What's the point? Sure, some bug designs may be universal, but if you have a chance to make them visibly, obviously different, why not do so?

Good episode, but I was REALLY dissapointed we didn't discover more. More tech the good guys get, the better. It'd have been cool if we went above the weapons station and discovered all it needed was a measly ZPM . It probably would need about 10............
This really should be revisited at a later date, potenial alpha site.
Another thought, how long would a wraith be able to feed of another wraith? Seeing as though they don't naturally age and the wraith 'suck your years away from you'. That wraith looked normal(the one that had been fed off).Last edited by waz; 17 November 2004, 11:16 AM.Wier: Nice work Rodney!
McKay: Did you ever doubt me?
Wier: Yes, several times....
