*#@!* Power Company

Wow, the last minute of Stargate Atlantis was... it sucked. Why? Because the (expletive deleted) power company DELIBERATELY CUT THE POWER to our street to fix a problem, a problem they knew about for four hours, so at 9pm, it all went dark. Gee, thanks. So by 5 of 10pm, the power comes back, and then it takes several minutes for the stupid cable box to come back to life, in time for, well... I hope they don't cut our power AGAIN at 11pm.

NOw I have to wait for Sanctuary to drag through an hour. Sigh.

And was I right or waht? Yes, they're pushing Stargate Universe, at least minute. Don't care.

That sucks so hard! The episode was fantastic! (sorry to rub it in). I hate when the power company does that crap.

It was sub par episode if you hold it up to other season finales.

Had a Best of Both Worlds vibe goin' on for a bit.

As for Universe, that's the first ad I've seen for it.

Well, least we can say it had a decent run and didn't drag like SG-1 did in the end.

Yeah, color me surprised to see that half assed commercial for Universe. Way to rub salt in the wound guys.

As far as I'm concerned? The Stargate franchise has left the building. :(

The ending pissed me off big time, but it was an OK ep as far as those things go.
Vegas was by far the better of the two I thought.

My thoughts and prayers are with you!!!
The Power company blows!
Gateworld's down too, isn't it?
Maybe it's a conspiracy!

see above edit. I think there's a conspiracy afoot.

I still can't access it, so maybe that's part of the reason it's light on people?

I would have screamed!

As it is I warned people in the house that I was watching it and if they messed with me I'd make them regret it big time.

My brother, tested the limits. Now I have to plot revenge.

Actually, I figured it out, I can't access the main site, which is how I usually navigate to the forum. Going directly to the forum works.

Oh my gawd that sucks, I am so sorry!! I hate it when the power co does crap like that!! Are they replaying it after Sanctuary?...I hope so. I must say I am proud that they followed in true "Star Trek Academy" form and landed in my lovely San Francisco Bay!! That makes me happy. Wanna visit??
Must say that I really thought they would kill someone off...but about the time they brought f%&*ing Cavanaugh back, I thought, all right,it's freakin' reunion! Then Ronon died....I thought I was going to lose it, but then I realized, I know where this story line is going...I think I wrote in my head already!!

p.s. I can't wait to see the new installment of Action Figure Theater with the new ones. Please do horrible things to Jennifer...that DO NOT involve Rodney. He must remain chaste.

I think I like Kavanaugh better than Keller! :(

unfortunately you missed one of the few decent episodes this year.

i imagine you can catch up with the missing bits on youtube, or download them from one of the million torrent sites out there

The TV station did pretty much the same thing to me during the last episode of Heroes I watched...

I'm so glad though, NBC streams Heroes. :)
