Nope that would be Irresistible.

Nope that would be Irresistible.

That wasn't in S5

No, I've come to the realization that I found the writing of "Irresistible" better Which scares the daylights out of me.

That's... interesting. You put [if nothing else] the Todd/Shep interaction in EatG below Lucius? Anything Lucius? Sigh.

Todd/Shep cannot save "Enemy at the Gate" from the sheer number of plot holes, plot devices, character idiocy, and canon-contradiction that took place in that 45-minute span... which also frightens me

Damn! My plot to take over the forum with off topicness foiled again!

I disagree. Plot holes and plot devices are very, very, different. And I see no evidence of idiocy and cannon contradiction at all.

Wormhole X-Treme! drive sure punched a hole in my space/time. But eh...

...the idiocy of not using the chair to take out the incoming darts passed you by? Not bothering to move the Daedalus when the superhive fired on it and just sitting there like idiots is okay, too?

That's the problem, people worry too much about every little detail. None of these bothered me whatsoever. I just saw an entertaining show with good drama and action. The episode worked.

Getting back on topic, Inquisition did not work because of how they sidelined the cast who had been the reason for that entire episode.

no, but some people simply don't blindly accept everything from the Bridge studios. You really call the wormhole drive as a little detail? I call it a plot device. But I don't blame SGA only. Those plot devices, deus ex machinas killed the Ori story-line for me, and I really liked that story more than previous 8 years of SG-1. I was really glad that I downloaded Ark of Truth before buying the official DVD. It saved my money and my nerves. I have seen only an incomplete version(VFX were missing) of it, I didn't bother to download DVD copy or HDTV copy. Don't get me wrong, I know some people like SG franchise, but for me, it only represents everything I don't like, plot holes, plot devices, deus ex machinas, etc.
