wraithfodderA little dissection of the episode. Full of spoilers, etc. etc.
Okey-doke.... "Remnants." I'd say that the Woolsey story was the main story, and I think I saw Teyla and Ronon. Ah yes, they were at breakfast, twice. Darn. Anyway, being a Shep whumper the Shep story was what I was fascinated by... loved Sheppard's "Lorne warned me about you" to Dr. Parrish (and I can only guess he took the trip to the mainland because he was interested in the female scientist who was babbling away about plants?
But the whump. I really sorta thought, being a bloodthirsty whumper *cough cough* that hey, you hack off a hand, and unless you superglued or plastic-wrapped the stump, there's going to be some bleedthrough. Ack! And while Kolya was using Sheppard's face as a punching bag, I heard from another part of the "oh, there goes a xygomoid (or whatever) bone". Ah, watching whump with an EMS worker is... interesting! ;) Then hearing about blood loss and shock.
Personally, I would have loved a lot more on Shep, and hey, the fans have nailed it on the head with Shep beating himself up. I can now hope to (please please please) wallow in some great fanfic to flesh out that part. I mean, the psychological repercussions should be there. Woolsey, well, he'll probably wonder who's he's talking to and if they're real, and the fact that Zelenka wasn't real was good. I hadn't really thought that!
Some of the editing was chopping. On Atlantis, a few seconds of Sheppard walkling and then back to the control room and it was like "whhaaa???" I would have loved for this to have been a purely Shep episode, but well, guess beggar's can't be choosers.

*whistles innocently*
It is driving me NUTS where have we seen that Australian chick before????
I have to say, the longer I see "Dick" the more I like him. :-) Xiox (Or how ever the closed captioning spelled her name) is evil, but we knew that. She's IOA. It is me or is the IOA getting stupider??? Or is it more stupid?
I think I'm one of the few in the fandom going...ohhh!!! McKay/Keller ep!!! Yay! I am, really. I think they are adorable.
and BILL NYE!!!! WHOO!
