In the jerky dark. I swear, if this *ever* makes it to DVD, they're going to need to package it with bottles of Dramamine.
I'm still not quite sure *why* they wanted an entire ship load of incompetent douchebags for a show... unless it's just a case of The Boyz from Bridge writing what they know.
One of my favorite moments was when the Senator-with-a-peculiar-crush-on-his-daughter got all huffy with the Lieutenant and then clutched his chest and coughed.
Is that what's known as "character development"? Or, no, wait... "the gun over the mantel"? No, no, bear with me; I'll get it.
Late to the game but I out about this comm and am checking out what I missed.
Apparently Dr. McKay was washing his hair that night, or maybe Canada has declared war, because even though it only took a ZPM or two to dial up Pegasus, that won't work this time.
That whistling sound you hear is twelve years of canon being tossed out the window.
But Psycho Unwashed Sociopath Scientist Guy insists on trying the unknown address because he has poor impulse control.
For God's Sweet Sake, who piles cartons of COPIER PAPER in the Gateroom JUST IN CASE THEY NEED TO XEROX SOMETHING AT THE OTHER END OF THE RAINBOW I MEAN WTF PEOPLE WTFingF? These lines totally cracked me up :D
we will shortly discover that every once in a while Destiny stops and apparently poops out another Stargate because it has an AI or a bunch of trained monkeys with typewriters or something. That bit is something that makes extra no sense, since they are going to all these planets in later episodes through stargates that are already on those planets. Did the Destiny reach the end of the Universe and decide to just reverse and revisit all the planets it already hit? Has it been driving in circles? Because there is no indication that the ship just pooped out the gates they're walking through.
