Well i wish I could answer your question, but sky one decides to run a trailer before the the progamme ends, I was moaning so much, I didn't hear, I can't believe they did that.
1. This was disaster movie territory, vomplete with cliche about one group going it alone a la "Day from Tommorrow".
2. Paranoia from Chancellor was interestingish.
3. Sheppard and McKay were very cool here
4. Interesting set up for Allies.
Overall it may be disaster movie territory but it took SG1's Fail Safe to the cleaners! Michael has the edge on it but it's definately Coup D'Etat quality.
And you guys do realise that every time 'Kirking' gets mentioned, Star Trekking starts up in my head don't you!

Yeah i couldnt believe that either, but anyway i think we get to keep it but not sure if its still taranian property or completely ours.

The sky advert came on before they got to that bit though, they were in th bits just after the Orion came out of Hyper Space, and left when Sheppard told Caldwell they had all the survivors
Then they had bits at atlantis talking about the wraith hip and how they've been given the ship o,o
did we get to keep the Orion? my recorded tape crapped out before the end
i had to use white text because i dont know how to do the spoiler thing (is it an html tag?)
The way i picked it up is that we got a loaned of the orion... which probably means that its either gonna be destroyed next season or its ours to keep

Sky are really starting to annoy me when it comes to stargate.... they have barely advertised it this year. Advertised crappy shows that nobody watches, more than stargate, and now this
The doctor told me Im insane, thank God! its so much better then being outsane!

Hmm.. Struck me more of a good version of "100 days". *shrugs* Who didn't see the gate being swallowed up and them having to fix the ship, seriously? It was painfully obvious, but still a great ep.
I liked the Ronon/Teyla interaction just before they were "beamed up". Next week should be good....
EDIT: For Brits: Who was annoyed that Sky One showed the "What's next" thing right at the climax of the show? As much as i loved to hear what episode of "Rescue Me" was on, i was much more interested in what banter was going on...

I was screaming at the t.v., shouting obscenities at Sky. I mean right at the climax of the episode! Arghhh!
Totally agree with Sky ruining the ending of the show.
I'm emailing Sky today regarding that.
Yep I'm going to do the same. It was complete incompetence on their part. They usually do that over the closing credits. Someone got it wrong. I was thinking of watching one of the repeat showings to see if they get it right then.
I actually enjoyed this episode. I hadn't been sure about it from what others had said, particularly in relation to McKay/Sheppard and Darina. But I thought it worked well. It was funny. Sheppard was obviously winding McKay up and he responded, as usual. Ronon and Teyla's reaction to the McKay/Darina situation was good too.
I found the episode built the suspense well. It was one where all the main characters were in peril at one stage or another, even though Elizabeth got back to Atlantis before the real trouble began.
It was good to see the interaction between Teyla and Ronon. It is very natural and helps the show's dynamic.
They have technical problems like us all, to stress I was immensely angry about the trail for whatever show…I think it was 24. May I remind you that Stargate Atlantis is repeated Friday and Saturday, set your recorders.
My thoughts....
We call the Aurora and Orion ancient war ships is that compared with our vessels, the tactical prowess or that they were built in time of war. Will there be bigger, better ships out there?
The tarains, or whatever they are called should be revisited again. helping them build their homeworld, fitting defences, building an earth outpost their.
I loved this episode, it was SGA at its best!
The McShep banter was wonderful, and my whole family laughed at the Norina, Shep, McKay situation:very funny stuff, not to be taken too seriously methinks!
The magma spewing effects were good as was the over all tension of the episode.
The Teyla/Ronon plot was well done, and the Orion was great.
I believe Sheppard was winding McKay up too, though I do believe Sheppard appreciates a pretty woman as much as the next guy, can't say this bothered me much though.
For me this episode had what so many other episodes have lacked: excitement, well written dialogue and the two true stars of the show playing off eachother brilliantly, creating not only tension but pure entertainment.
More like this please, PTB.
