So instead of being pathetic and running out and buying Ark of Truth (since it hasn't arrived yet in my mailbox), I decided to be pathetic and watch the last few episodes of SG-1 instead.

This isn't long, but since it's season 10...

Talion: I have to confess that I didn't watch this very carefully the first time through. This time, I was like, "Wait...there's a plot here! And *that's* where the bomb ships crop up!" (No one ever said I was *good* at watching episodes). Also: Teal'c is kick-ass. That's really all I have to say. I mean, I LOVED it this time through, but mostly I have to say that Teal'c is kick-ass.

Family Ties: I'm still in love with the first and last scenes of this. I'm also still bitter about Vala's backstory.

Dominion: Morena Baccarin can't act! Or at least, I don't like some of her artistic choices for Adria. I think the explanation part of the episode is amazingly funny. Of course...it's Claudia Black. Someday I'm going to write that woman a very embarrassing letter. Also, can I just say how amazingly glad I am that the writers decided to remember that Ba'al is a Goa'uld and not a businessman? I also like that moment at the end, when Adria's ascending. It's a great oh, crap moment. And there's SO MUCH going on in Vala's head right then.

Unending: Okay, killing the Asgard? Still sucks. A lot. *stomps her 10W feet in anger* However, I LOVE the moment where the Ori beam is racing toward the ship and then just...stops, and on the bridge they just look absolutely sunned. I love that there are still things so awesome they have problems comprehending them. And The Scene between Daniel and Vala still makes me really thinky about both their characters. Okay. This episode is tugging at my heartstrings. Teal'c angst! Sam angst! Sam being a genius! *sighs* I think I'm weird for liking this episode so much. The end of the episode is joy. An angsty, bittersweet joy. But joy nonetheless. *sobs* Oh, TEAM.
