I actually did watch the episode last night I just didn't get around to doing my weekly quick thoughts bit. I um...recently started watching Stargate and it's eating my brain, and I still have 8+ seasons to go.


-Yay Rhys, snuggle Rhys. Also, for once in a blue moon, yay Gwen for standing up for Rhys and taking a chance on him because he's always been great he just needed someone to trust him and have a chance to show that he'd handle it well.

-I, unlike Jack apparently, always figured they'd have to mercy kill the creature. I'm not entirely sure how they expected to keep it, or know how to get it home through the rift, and after everything it had been put through...mercy killing seemed what would have to happen.

-I'm still not really digging Tosh/Owen so much, especially less this week about the return of Tosh throwing herself at him basically.

-I did get some good enjoyment out of Jack and Ianto's studied not-looks when Owen said "We'd have to all date each other," I found the amusing.

-This season seems to be doing a much better job of balancing the plot with the character aspects. I'd almost say it could stand a bit more character focus, but the flashes of character are working better and the plots are working better, and the character dynamics seem natural enough; to the point where disturbing the balance to put some of more developed character arcs doesn't seem like the wisest course (although I think Rhys, and Gwen's story just got more interesting). So keep it up.

-I'm fuzzy on how the retcon drugs work, because mightn't Rhsy's memory of the time Gwen told him she'd been sleeping with Owen from work have been triggered by meeting Owen? Just a nitpick.

-Overall continuing to gain more confidence in the season, although I'm not necessarily obsessing over it.

I still can't figure out the Jack and wanting to save the alien thing. It's starting to bug me! I am good at fanwanking this show to make sense. >:D
