Ok so for five minutes after the show ended all I could say was omg! Actually I think I started repeating this about the time of that scene in the office, you know which one I’m talking about. When the credits rolled I just sat there and stared and then I had to watch it again because oh. my. god.
Now can I just say, I have always known that sga was a good show but episodes like these emphasise that when done correctly it can be great. This episode was certainly one of the best. It was well written, well acted and very well put together. The whole feel of it was very realistic and most often down played, allowing the words and actions to speak for themselves.
And this episode certainly gave us a lot to think (and talk) about.
