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.

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!

Okay two redeeming qualities, the one you mentioned plus....That Wraith dude was hot What? *adjusts halo*
I hated the music But then I'm not into heavy rock
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.sigpic

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.
