    I though it was a fantastic episode, and gave a wonderful clue and lead in to EATG. Next to the Eye, Storm and Common Ground that was Flanigans best work of the series. I realise it would be a very polarising episode ie the ones that hate it and the ones that love it. It was different and thoughtful in my eyes.

      Awsome, one of my favourite stargate episodes.

      The music, the end, the CSI style, ... perfect!

        It took until the penultimate episode of SGA for me to think, wow, SGA's best episode! Hmmmm. Whilst I enjoyed some over the course of the show for the action, none stood out for gripping my attention as far as characters go. I didn't mind the 'CSIesque' style and the cameos were entertaining. Loved the way the Wraith made the best of things on being stuck on Earth. The alternate Sheppard was your tragic hero to the core! He saved everyone in the end, including his alternate self in a way, thus they weren't different as far 'souls' go. The use of the music was spot on, I thought it was great use of some wonderful tunes. Didn't leave me wondering 'what the....?' ,that the use of CCR's song in SG-1's Unending did! Joe Flannigan's performance in this was outstanding I thought.

        I've re-watched this episode more times than any other SGA one. I can't help it, I'm a sap for these kinds of 'redemption in the end' things!

            Only too bad 3/4 of the cast wasn't there to make it even more interesting.

              After 99 episodes shouldn't you be use to it?

                  Selective memory perhaps Maybe thinking they were there more than they actually were?

                  Back to Vegas. *ponders*


                  Yep still the worst ever episode of Stargate EVER!!! I can't think of even one redeeming quality

                    I can think of a few but those pale in comparassion to the boredem and rip offing of CSI.

                    I've got one I liked when the Wraith jumped that high wall of that casino

                        It was goddawful wasn't it? Leave CSI to the experts who can actually do it properly These guys should just stick to Stargate, although they weren't very good at it in SGA

                          Different strokes for different folks - my favorite Stargate ep of all time!
                          Loved the music, the acting, the photography, almost everything.
                          Only thing I could have asked for would have been to include Teyla and Ronon somehow and it would have perfection.

                            Vegas was perfection just like it was. Even Joe Flanigan says it is his favorite. I can see how it wouldn't be for everyone if you don't like CSI though. It is amazing also to see what these writers could have done on a regular basis.

                            It's great that after all this time, new posters are coming in here and giving their opinion. Vegas will be one of those that I watch over and over long after most of the others are forgotten.

                              I agree, Vegas will be one of those eps I never get tired of replaying (and crying...)

                                Me too. And sighing. Heh. Pardon my fangirl moment.

                                I just noticed how Vegas!Shep's face in my avatar looks remarkably like Atlantis!Shep's face in your sig.
