Verisimilitude
is exactly what bothered me the most about the first thirteen episodes. Musicals work best when their characters don't try to justify why they spontaneously are able to dance and sing at a moment's notice. Musicals are the least realistic thing you can film and I think the show works best when it…

That Dollhouse ep was NUTS. Lots of blood and chopping.

Whatever the Asperger's and childhood trauma doesn't explain, I'm sure the abnormal intelligence can cover. If I were that smart, I would probably be more than a little arrogant.

His real name is Bobby.

Empham!
New name. Coin it.

Well, I sure hope you don't know anyone in your life with Asperger's, because that's exactly what they are like, and they can't turn it off.

I was just thinking how brilliant of a casting job that was. Logan Huffman could be a perfect blend of Nicholas Lea and Elizabeth Mitchell DNA . . . and then I saw this on the ABC website. Warning, SPOILER, and stupid plot development coming up:

I also feel like it has never been about "Will They or Won't They" with this show. The question has always been WHEN and HOW. This is just part of the how, but I'm still not sure about the when.

I think this was a necessary step in their relationship, meaning it's not over yet.

I'm just putting this out there
but am I the only nutjob who cried at the end?

I think the main problem is that fans of SG-1 and Atlantis are used to a certain tone from a Stargate show — fun, light, occasionally dramatic, and always well-lit — and what they're getting from SGU is darkness at every level. Fans of more "serious" sci-fi like the shows I've listed above are likewise having trouble…

The Dan Castellaneta episode was total fan service! It was a total tongue in cheek representation of fans who knew EVERYTHING about the show and the characters. It might even be argued that Vala inhabiting Daniel's body (in"Crusade" I think) was fan service, although I'm sure no one will disagree that it was extremely…

I liked "Measure of a Man" quite a bit, because aside from it being just an overall quality episode, Data was the only character I cared about. And I totally agree that there have been worse shows on television than the first two seasons of TNG, but I didn't start looking forward to watching until season three, and…

Patrick Stewart, man. What an animal.

Hey . . .
. . . when do we get to the one where Picard wears tiny swim-trunks? I'm very interested in that one.

I'm just finishing up season three right now, and the only reason I got this far is because my roommate (whose DVDs I am watching) loves this show beyond reason, and also it is my goal to watch every sci-fi show ever made.

Playing With the Big Boys
Stargate (SG-1 and Atlants, both of which I thought actually improved over time, but still had major flaws) has always been mindless fun. It's the show I watch when I want to turn my brain off for a couple of hours. The problem with Universe is that it's trying to be serious where its…

I'm not a spy or anything, but I'm pretty sure they call themselves 'agents.' It is fun to say 'spy' though, so maybe we should cut them a break.

I think the only problem with this season has been the 13 episode arc. All of the character motivations make sense within the right context, IMO, but they've had to rush it to fit everything into 13 episodes. (This isn't even taking into account the budget cuts they've had to deal with.) If only NBC had ordered those…

I was giggling the entire time in the van with Awesome, Casey, and Morgan. Especially at Morgan, and especially when he made Awesome look in the mirror.
