[warmbeachbrat]

Teal'c is bitten by a bad f/x bug. He is captured by early evil Maybourne and NID, escapes, ditching Junior in a truck. Then proceeds to hide out in the city, eventually molting in a warehouse attic. His only protection: a little girl with a squirt gun. No really! So, you decide.

"ditching Junior in a truck"--you mean his symbiont?!

"bad f/x bug"; "molting"(?!)--sounds pretty wierd.

I'd like to see it (if only because bad Stargate is better than no Stargate at all).

Thanks for the info!

Round 5 is done, the votes are tallied

Apologies to the following people whose votes I couldn't include: (and thanks, Easter_Lily, for the help )
LOL4JACK: Nightwalkers is already gone, so I couldn't include it. If you change it in future rounds I can include those. Thanks.
ShimmeringStar: I need you to change one of the "One False Step" votes to something else - you can only vote for an episode once Sorry...
Carterslave: As Easter_Lily pointed out, Gemini and Prometheus Unbound are in Season 8, so they're not eligible for this tournament. Sorry (really wish I could have included your votes - The Other Guys needs all the votes it can get!) Again, if you replace those two with episodes from seasons 1-7 in future rounds, we should be good. Thanks

Grace is out!

And in case anybody is curious, here are the season overall standings:

Number of episodes per season with 6 or more votes:
Season 1 : 3 / 21 episodes
Season 2 : 4 / 21 episodes
Season 3 : 1 / 22 episodes
Season 4 : 1 / 22 episodes
Season 5 : 1 / 22 episodes
Season 6 : 4 / 21 episodes
Season 7 : 4 / 21 episodes

Season Rankings (listed best to worst) (determined by dividing the number of episodes left by the number of votes. Again, if any statisticians out there can think of a better formula to use, please let me know )

1. Season 5 -- 22 / 25 = 0.880
2. Season 3 -- 22 / 30 = 0.733
3. Season 4 -- 22 / 31 = 0.710
4. Season 1 -- 21 / 40 = 0.525
5. Season 6 -- 21 / 50 = 0.420
6. Season 2 -- 21 / 50 = 0.420
7. Season 7 -- 21 / 54 = 0.389

That's it! Now, everybody vote again for the next round! (Initial post with current standings and episodes remaining)

My votes:
The Other Guys
Avenger 2.0
Demons
Red Sky
Metamorphosis
Beneath the Surface
The First Commandment
1969

[TheWarrior]

Sight Unseen

*sniffle* I liked Grace a lot (no, not for the shippiness--although I don't mind it); I liked how it showed so many aspects of Sam and her life and those that were close to her. I liked the unusual alien life and I liked that Sam could get herself out of a jam. I must be weird, because not one on my worst list is gone, and a couple that I really liked were voted off.

Anyway, on with the madness:

The Nox
The Gamekeeper
Holiday
One False Step
Urgo
The Light
Red Sky
The Tomb

[SimilarCadence]

Round 6

Brief Candle
The First Commandment
Politics
Seth
The Sentinel
Cor-ai
Red Sky
Spirits

It's a shame that "Grace" has been booted out----Amanda Tapping did an excellent job of acting and it's a shame to see fans dismiss it so easily.
