So it's not as much as a review as me just squeeing, as I tend to do.

Sheppard:
I would think getting shot would hurt a bit more. Was quite funny when he almost blew himself up with the Wraith hand grenade. (holy hand grenade!!!)

McKay:
This man is hogging all the character development. Not that I mind! I loved the scene between him and the wraithified scientist (who played Nyan in New Ground!). With the scientist going, "You've changed. You want to be out there." Rodney is still the arrogant astrophysicist we all know and love but he's definely showing he cares for his team mates and his fellow scientists. The look on his face when ex-Nyan killed himself! He seriously needed a hug. He probably gets involved with Heightmeyer because he starts to really show how fucked up he feels. I mean look at his past! His parents hated him and the poor boy was told to quit playing the piano. I love Rodney.

Ex-Nyan-dude:
No one seems to remember this guy's name. It was Brendan something, I think. Anyways, he played Nyan in the episode, New Ground on SG-1. Which happened to be on last night. ^__^ I felt really, really bad for him. Poor red shirt.

Red Shirt #2:
No idea what his name was. He was in and he was out. No feelings whatsoever.

Greg:
It seems that the wraith has picked up the nickname of Greg on the gateworld.net forums. He was cool. Someone mentioned he was a RastaWraith. His dreadlocks amused me greatly but so did Skaares.

McShep Moments:
The whole learning to pilot the PJ was adorable. Then at the end when Sheppard told McKay if he could fix the shield then he could fly home. I'm starting to like the little reparté between these guys more then Jack/Daniel. Kinda scary. Whether you slash or not, you have to love their friendship. They play off each other perfectly.

ShipSlash Moments:
I think Sheppard is doing everyone. The scene where Elizabeth tells Ford to get a rescue team ready just kept making me think dirty shippy and slashly thoughts for Sheppard/Weir and Sheppard/Ford. I'm making a smaller vid of that scene.

Random Stuff:
-Holy Hand Grenade!
-I wanted a bigger explosion at the end.
-How was McKay going to fix the shield?
-Powerbar buggies!!!!! (who have skipped galaxies)
-I have a craving for a powerbar.
-How hard is it to pilot a Puddle Jumper?

Overall:
Not the best, not the worst. I enjoyed more wraith action and I love episodes featuring Shep and McKay. I really wish we could see a Ford or Teyla centric episode. They need character development, damnit!

I'll probably cap a lot of the episode tonight in order to put off doing history work. That includes making mini vids. Again if you want to see either the Eye or/and The Defiant One and don't want to use BT, I can send it to you or someone.
