That was a nice episode. Wonder how these replicators will fair against the Wraith. I really like them actually. It's too bad they have some kind of murderous grudge against humans.

No doubt it's going to go horribly wrong. There's a good reason the Ancients didn't turn out the "kill all the Wraith" subroutine, we'll eventually find out what it is.

Kudos to the Brits.

No offence, but I have no idea what people see in this show. It's horrible and I'm embarrassed and annoyed that our licence fee is used to produce such rubbish.

The last 2 episodes of SGA have been great. Makes me wish the last few seasons of SG1 never happened, they should have gone out on a high.

It maybe trash to some, but some people like it.

R. I. P. Dr. Weir!

Don't know if she's dead. She's probably in the same kind of limbo semi-recurring character like Lt. Ford was put in.

Birneyville Memorial?
btw Amanda Tapping subplot is sketchy at best.

They're gonna go after the Wraith's food next.

The 4400 and Heroes are two very good Sci-Fi shows that are not premiered on Sci-Fi... Even Lost by some long stretch is Sci-Fi show.

There are good shows out there... Sci-Fi channel has no monopoly for anything but B movies.

Oh, S4 E04 is also out if you know where to look. iTunes inadvertently released it. I'll save from spoiling anything.

Wright & Cooper need to do have more background research done as quotes like that sound dated IMO.

How is that dated? Elwynn Forrest is still in the game, isn't it?

And RIP Weir, TPTB have now killed off half of the original cast in 3 years.

Yes ViRGE, the forrest is still in the game but I meant that they should use more obscure references as I am personally tired of WoW being the easy reference in SciFi shows.

I heard about the leak but wasn't quick enough to DL it

You just need to look at places that aren't iTunes.

If it were a different character I'd be inclined to agree. However it's consistent for that character to play WoW (see: S3 E10).

How were the nanites in Weir able to survive the anti-replicator field? I know it's just a tv show but this immediately stuck out to me.

maybe they have to make contact with the field to be affected. weir was already within the field so the nanites weren't phased.

I'm just wondering why they seem to blast through ZPMs like they are AA batteries. When they had weir, they should have just gotten 3 of them to bring Atlantis to full power and so they can actually DO something with it. Atlantis is nothing but a city of sparkling towers with ZERO power. Fully man the friggin thing, bring it to full power and beat some god damn ass.

The convenient answer is that the easiest ZPM to go for was all alone, so they only get 1 ZPM. The longer answer is that if they had 3 they'd never be able to use a "we're running out of power" plot, which is a recurring theme of the show. Atlantis is supposed to always be hanging on by a thread.

I wonder where in Atlantis they made zpm's? Seems they could just make 40 or 50 and be done with it.

They ran through the last ZPM because the city was draining power because the power conduits were damaged. They needed to shut everything down to repair it, but they couldn't due to the fact that they were in space and they needed the shield to survive.


Didn't you listen to Rodney talking about the leaking "pipes"?

So then where were all the other replicators that were within the field when they created it?

Outside. Remember Weir said that the area was clear?

The field started out just around the jumper then grew downwards sweeping replicators away as it went. Didn't they even show the field passing through a group of them?

I suppose I could believe that argument. I just wish they would have mentioned something about how she would be safe from it

There main mission should be getting some god damn ZPMs, brute force it if you have to. Getting atlantis to full power so they actually aren't always running scared would be a nice twist to this beginning to get old plot.
