As for the discussion of Season 9 taping and viewing habits. I've been taping season nine *in case* there's a good episode. But I don't make a point to rewatch them. Me too, no desire to watch again; I'm not taping though. I did watch Beach Head last night & sort of watched the Baal episode while doing other stuff. I tend to still stop doing other stuff during *old* episodes. Me too! When "Solitudes" comes on, for example, I don't pay bills or read the newspaper through it even though I must have seen it at least 5 times. Solitudes was one of the earliest and best! The fine acting and herculean physical effort put forth by RDA and AT still stand out!
I don't see myself buying the boxed set unless the whole rest of season 9 goes up in quality quite a bit. Me too! Season 8 was a tough call for me, but I decided with New Order & a few other episodes it was worth it -- & also for the commentaries & features. Me too but haven't yet listened to any of the commentaries! Well, the commentaries have been very disappointing for me. A couple of good ones, but mostly talking *through* the episodes & not *about* the episodes. I just about whoopsed my cookies during the PU commentary with all the nauseating fawning over CB. At least CB had the grace to seem a bit embarrassed by it. Oh boy, that's not sounding good at all!
Edit: oh and all the gushing over how Vala allowed them to write a whole new tone (or words to that effect) made me want to say, "you think Stargate inhibits you? find another show." Maybe the writers should think about leaving rather than the actors!!
Sorry this turned into a bit of a rant. It's going around.
