    I completely agree, Ethon was one of the season's best written eps (it and Beachead are the top). It was sad, but not poor. (in writing or acting)

      Prometheus!

      I loved this episode, beautifully done and stuff but sad indeed. I would have loved to see Prometheus and Korolev join Odyssey at the battle of P3Y-229. Oh my poor Prometheus!

        True... I would have loved to see them all side by side... I am actually surprised there was only the one X303..

          Just watched this during a rerun..I can't believe they let the ship get destroyed. They sat around for five minutes saying..."Uh what do we do George, what do we do...." And then they get blown to pieces. And they should have destroyed the satellite when they had the chance. Even if they could build another one, at least it would have taken them a year. And the Daniel captured in the prison cell was way to abrupt for me. Major plot holes all around..........

            The things you have described are not plot holes in any way whatsoever, they are just things you didn't agree with.

              While I might not agree with those two being at the top, I definitely agree that they're both excellent. This episode stands as a fine hour in the backlog for me, and I was nearly in tears when Pendergast and the Prometheus kicked the bucket.
              If you've seen a Jeff O'Connor or a JeffZero or a Jeff Zero or a JeffZeroConnor elsewhere on the net, there's a considerable chance it's me.

                Funny.... in the last scene, Mitchell places a can of beer in front of Daniel, and then sits back and opens his own can. They talk for a minute about the sad state of the planet they'd been on, and finally, Mitchell sums it up with "Rough day." Daniel sighs and agrees "Rough day." he picks up his beer can & brings it to his lips, seemingly drinking from it. Funny thing is,... he never opened it.

                  Mitchell opened it.
                  Meh...

                    Granted I only saw this episode once when it first aired but I remember disliked this episode intensely. Possibly because I'd already been spoiled on the big event by people's RIP Prommie sigs.

                    But it seemed to me that the entire episode was based around one thing: We have to kill the Prometheus to make way for new flashier 304 to come in and be the new hero ship.

                    I'm sorry but the Odyssey just does not cut it. I wanted to see the Prommie and Deadelus fight side by side at least once.

                      Me too, although I have to admit that Prometheus' destruction kicked so much a** that I might be willing to possibly, maybe, let it slide.

                        Good episode. I remember on first viewing thinking "oh no not the Rand and Caledonians again" (yawn), glad I was wrong.

                            Just watched this and... oy. Not my cup of tea, I'm afraid.

                              Not bad but not great.

                                Oh well, at least we won't hear from the Rand or the Caledonians ever again. A depressing episode if there ever was one.
