Originally posted by majorsal View Postwhile i agree that vala is a more interesting character, she is also a HUGE anvil in the room. mitchell and vala were poorly written from the get-go, but vala has literally been given the show (with her side-kick daniel). so, for me, HER being on the show is more disruptive than mitchell (whom i think was fixed in season 10). did i use the word 'whom' correctly? it's just more in-your-face with her being in your face the vast majority of the time. in my opinion.

When Vala is in the scene, the focus is on her. Everyone else is secondary.Odo's last wishes: cremate me, put me in my bucket, then shoot me through the wormhole.

Teal'c, in an olive uniform, is available as an exclusive when purchased in a four-pack that includes the olive-garbed Mitchell, Carter, and Jackson. Each figurine, except for Teal'c, is also sold individually.
So If I want to buy the "classic" team, I am forced to buy a Mitchell too.sigpicMy Stories zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Artwork by Mala

Nah, that would make him too much like Dr. Daniel "3 PhDs before he reached 30 years old" Jackson, we don't want that either.sigpicMy Stories zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Artwork by Mala

This is probably an ironic question-considering the name of this thread-but can one of our cousins across the pond tell us how season 10 is being shown? are y'all on a break from mid December til January and then are you running straight through or will you end on episode 10 and pick up in April like the states. I guess what I am asking in good old fashioned, but confusing, yankee English (strange for a Texan I know) is are you guys gonna be ahead of us and if so-how many episodes.
ok-now I am returning control to our regularly scheduled and probably more coherent thread.Franklin said, "They that can give up essential liberty for a little safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

Here in the UK we see episode 10.10 next week, and then Sky One have a break for Christmas. The second half of the season is supposed to begin on January 9th and will run every week with no further breaks. This means we should complete the whole of S10 by March 13th.
ETA: We will also have seen the whole of Atlantis S3 as this runs consecutively with SG-1.Last edited by dipsofjazz; 13 December 2006, 10:50 AM.sigpic

Sky One here in the UK will be showing the 2nd half of S10 (and S3 SGA) at the beginning of January. So if it goes as scheduled we will have had the rest of S10 & S3 before sci-fi in the US shows it. I just wonder how many people will be watching over in the US by the time April comes around

Even if you had SG1 disbanded, doing their own thing, and brought in LTC Mitchell, you didn't have to make him some big time hero. that's just trying too hard.
I think that's one of the reasons Vala "works" better than Mitchell. Even though they tolerate her, especially in season 9, no one really likes her. And there's nothing about her in season 9 that's designed to make us really sympathize with her. She's a liar, she's manipulative, she's imperfect. Yet, there are moments where you get a glimpse under all that b.s. she throws out. It's a bit more subtle.
That being said, I feel the character's a little more forced in season 10 when she really doesn't need to be. She's not really a character people feel lukewarm about --they either think she's great or they hate her. You can't ignore her, whether you want to or not. I think the season 10 characterization is actually not as good as season 9, which is weird. They've sort of toned her down yet made her dumb at the same time; Vala's a lot of things but stupid isn't one of them. Did they do that so the audience would feel sorry for her? They didn't need to--those who love her, love her, those who don't aren't likely to change their minds.
and who says you have to love every character on a show? I hate Starbuck but I still like "Battlestar Galactica".
And I'm a casual viewer of BSG and I hate Starbuck too.

by the time scifi milks adn airs it, only the non-internet fans will likely have an interest.
most net savvy ones will already know whether or not each eps is worth watching
skiffy is basically shooting themselves in the foot with their lame delay
