sid... it's just on in the background, but...
Suckiest. Episode. Ever.
If you have to do a clip show, at least get some people who can act for the non-clip portions.
If you have to do a clip show, at least write something halfway decent for the non-clip portions.
If you have to do a clip show, at least try not to rip off Star Trek: The Next Generation.
If you must rip off Star Trek: The Next Generation (for a change, instead of your usual blatant Star Trek: Voyager ripoffs), give us Q.

ST:NG yeah, its watching like that. First thing that came to my mind was Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country, when McKoy and Kirk were on trail. My mind...*shrugs*

Amen. Q makes anything better. :D

Date: Oct. 27th, 2008 01:42 am (UTC)Clip shows usually have more to do with budget issues or (in ST:TNG's case) strikes or something. I know production planning for this season had to keep in mind the possibility of losing actors to a SAG strike, so perhaps this was a concession to "let's see how many eps we can get in the can before we lose all our actors". Also, it was a new writer and a new director, so that could have either been budget (new=cheaper) or timing (they're working while the A-team guys are doing other eps).

Date: Oct. 27th, 2008 02:01 am (UTC)Thanks! I realized even as I typed my comment that I had no idea how any of the timing worked out. And I'm sure that even if the cancellation came before this ep was filmed, it would've probably been too late to make other plans. It's just unfortunate all around.
I still haven't sat down and really watched this yet. Tomorrow!

Date: Oct. 25th, 2008 06:30 pm (UTC)geez, they had the returning audience from Daniel's appearance, you think the idiots would have taken advantage of that and put out something original.
AND eventhough I wasn't actually watching Santuary it seemed pretty familiar. We all know how plausible it is that while waiting for a rescue happening in less than 5hours then we should take naps. And because the temperature is well below freezing we shouldn't even consider huddling together for warmth. yep, it all makes perfect sense.
But I digress, you were talking about Stargate Atlantis, oops, sorry!

Date: Oct. 25th, 2008 07:17 pm (UTC)I gave up on Sanctuary after 2 episodes. It was okay, but I can find something else to do with that hour, you know? Read, write, chat....
