    Another great episode.
    The sets and cg backgrounds were awesome.
    My favorite scene was probably Shep & McKay sittin on the pier.

      It was a fantastic episode and I loved it except the ending was horrible. (Rodney may claim he loves Keller, but he wasn't yelling her name the entire episode now was he? )

        5/5. Brilliant work, all around.
        I couldn't agree more

The scene with Sheppard and McKay on the pier was priceless. You can't buy that kind of chemistry.

          I can't believe they are canceling a show of such high quality. Amazing chemistry, great characters, phenomenal acting. If anything, The Shrine makes me miss Atlantis even more.

          When did they decide to cancel the show?

            Just a brilliant script, and compellingly acted by all.

            Cancelling Stargate Atlantis is a crime, an absolute crime.
            I 100% agree. I really couldn't have said it better. ^^

                    I thought the scene where the parasite came out of Rodney's head was freaky lol. It's hard to sit here and remember everything that happened off the top of my head and the ep just ended 20 min ago

                      Hmm...great acting, a good story, good character moments, but for some reason I just couldn't get engaged in the episode. It was a good episode, I guess just not the kind I like.

                        The Shrine.

                        An episode can still be great without space battles, dog fights, and hand to hand combat and action.

                        David Hewlett delivered an amazing performance as did the rest of the cast. Joe Flanigan was also great. I swear it was like the producers told the cast to act their hearts out.

                        The episode was just filled with lots of character drama and had an interesting plot. The pier scene was likely one of the most powerful scenes I've seen a long time.

                        Oh and the Visual effects were also very well done. Very realistic.

                        Finally, I have made a conclusion...

                        Spoiler:
                        MGM or whoever is out of their *snip* minds to let this show go. There!

                          The effects were AMAZING though.

                              I didn't think this episode was going to be that good going by the previews and boy was I wrong.

                              I loved it.

                              Some great character moments. The scene on the pier was probably one of the best scenes I've seen in Stargate. Hewletts acting was top notch.

                              The CGI was once against spectacular. Sitting on top of the gate surrounded by water was just great.

                                There was some great stuff:

                                Rodney and John sitting outside in the middle of the night. "You're a good friend, Arthur."

                                David's performance was top-flight. Just amazing.

                                On the whole? I was pretty disappointed, though (aside from the McKellerness, which I obviously adored). Great concept that they didn't do enough with.

                                And the Shrine itself? That was just bad fan fiction right there.
