Letters From Pegasus (117)

[SmartFox]

Im glad that he was in this ep because it allowed Ford to be disgusted and show some emotion for the first time.

[Shep'sSocks]

I'm pretty sure Ford's showed emotion previously...

[Kip_Cathey_Furlings_are_Cats]

Was that

Spoiler:

beam that emerged from the village

ever explained? If so, please tell me in Spoiler tags.

No.

Does that need tags? Lol

[ShadowMaat]

Spoiler tags aren't needed if it's in the discussion thread for the ep in question.

My guess is the beam will be explained in Siege III.

I want to know more about McKay, Sheppard, Beckett, Zelenka, and Ford. I hope the addition of all these new characters in Season 2 will not prevent the writers from continuing to flesh out our heroes. It definitely ain't broke, so please don't try to fix it by dumping a lot of new characters on us while we're busy falling hopelessly in love with the ones we've already got.

I hope not either. I'm just starting to really like some of these characters. Some still need a little work but I think they're fixable. Hope they don't over-tweak things.

Poor John Sheppard. He really needed a hug and a comforting pat on the back by the time LfP was over. Not even Liz seemed all that concerned that he had no one to send a letter home to. Sadness.
The writers do such a superb job of creating complex characters (and the actors are brilliant in bringing them to life). I'm impressed as hell.

Yeah, Shep is attractive and the type of guy who usually has lots of friends. And no family - at all - to send a message to? I hope we get more background information on him in S2.

I'm also impressed with what they're doing on Atlantis in the second half of the season. Hope they continue down the same path in S2.

[MrBojangles]

No.

Does that need tags? Lol

Oh well. It's a habit to use spoiler tags on newer episodes for me.

[Whistler]

I believe that we will see that in Mobeus.

Nope, to my knowledge we will not see the effects of Letters in SG-1 until Season 9.

I enjoyed the episode - a good mix of interjecting humor into a grim situation. The letters home were priceless, Beckett is too funny "I wish I wasn't here" and Zelenka's look - security clearance?

Rodney was hysterical but very touching when he talked to his sister - definitely my favorite character.

However, I would say I began to see a lot more depth in Sheppard this episode. He was visibly troubled by not being able to help more people on the planet but aware of his responsibility to get the intel back to Atlantis. I think Flanigan gave a particularly good performance this episode.

[PugGate]

Part of me likes how they ended the episode with Carter in the SGC, but it seems like we should have stopped in the Atlantis gateroom, so we could see whether or not the generators are still there.

What get me is when Beckett does his personal message.

Paraphase
Ford: Tell you family that you wish they were here.
Beckett: What. I don't even want to be here.

If Beckett doesn't want to be there, why did he volunteer for the expediation in the first place?

[Rail'k]

Letters from Pegasus was so funny. i loved it what was your favorite part?

[Renenutet]

My favortie part was Rodney's video and the Asian woman's message talking about Rodney.


and now back to a subject that is near and dear to my heart...leadership

[Matthew D]

Same here.. great one

[Blue Banrigh]

What get me is when Beckett does his personal message.

Paraphase
Ford: Tell you family that you wish they were here.
Beckett: What. I don't even want to be here.

If Beckett doesn't want to be there, why did he volunteer for the expediation in the first place?

Well I presume he thought it would be a quiet research expedition, rather like his time in Antarctica. I don't think he factored the Wraiths in.

[Atlantisluva]

Possibly the best episode of the season in my eyes! The asian woman was hilarious, as was the clip seens of him & her in the lab, lol. Especially the part about the sandwhich! "Uck! WHO MADE THIS!? WAS IT YOU?!"
