I caught up yesterday, so I am posting for both eps. I haven't seen any of the reactions to "The Seer" at all, so hopefully I wasn't too sick to comprehend it. :-)
The Seer:
OMG! A glimpse-into-the-future episode that I didn't hate! One of my pet peeves is when shows get all wonky and mystical when there's no basis for it in the universe. But the seer wasn't bugging me, and I think it's because they already so went there with Daniel, and then Rodney (kinda). And you know, in a universe where whole databases of alien knowledge get downloaded into Jack's brain, I somehow have less of a problem with it.
Also, Where did this sudden undying love for John come from? Was it my imagination, or did his scenes with Sam rock? Or maybe he was just reflecting the Glory that is Sam? Whatever. All I know is that his part in this episode was awesome--right down to the last line. I LOVED the interaction between him and Sam, too--shows that they're comfortable with each other, even if they're not yet great friends.
If this episode had come first, I might have liked the ending scene in...uh...shoot. *Searches Gateworld for episode title she should totally know* "Doppleganger." Yes. I would have liked that scene better if this episode (and maybe a couple more) had come before the gang just accepted Sam and Jennifer at their table like that.
Also. Woolsey. Never change. I love to hate you and be constantly distracted by not being able to quite erase the gleeful thought of, "OMG that's Robert Picardo!" whenever you are on the show. *loves*
Also, Sam totally knew something was up. Subconsciously, if nothing else. Also, I hope hope hope hope hope that everyone else was as impressed with her in this ep as I was. I really liked the different facets of her character, between her doubts with Shep and the confidence with Woolsey.
That's probably more than enough for now...
Miller's Crossing:
I, too, was a little confused by Sam's complete absence from helping with the Replicator code. However, I am hand-waving it somehow. I haven't figured it out yet, but that's okay.
You know, I liked Jeannie and her family a lot more in "McKay and Mrs. Miller." Well, at least the first half. Jeannie in the second half seemed more like I remembered--fondly exasperated with Meredith instead of completely shrill. Although...with the kidnapping, I guess that's understandable.
How much do I love the Meredith thing?
The whole sister-is-sick-must-take-care-of-her thing was...a little heavy-handed, I think.
And I may have fallen a little out of love with John again. I'm sorry, but that scene was just...ouch. And as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
svendra said, it's totally not subtext anymore when John does something like that for Rodney, and then they have that little heart-breaky scene at the end with the awkward love and gratitude between them.
McKay/Shep people? You got nothing to worry about. Now quit bitching.
JASON MOMOA YOU ARE TOO HOT. PLEASE STOP OMG.
