    I thought it was quite enjoyable. Reminded me a lot of SG1:Message in a Bottle. In a way i'm glad Kolya was a hallucination. It would have been shit otherwise.(Though I was hoping Sheppard had really lost his hand :()

    was a watchable episode, which is unusual for atlantis. Ai chick was hot.

    It was good - the Kolja thing had me going pretty much until the reveal and I really thought Sheppard's hand was gone but they were gonna come up with some crazy explanation to grow it back or something. Not as strong as last week, but overall enjoyable. Woolsey was really good too and stood up to the IOA chick nicely - it's good to see him show some strength in his role for a change.

    Think i've watched too much stargate. Guessed what was happening almost straight away, didnt make the episode plot very enjoyable.

    Few great lines from Woolsey and the ending of the IOA chick story line kept it solid enough tho.

    Agree with all of the above. Also found it quite funny when McKay realised Selenka was still on his away mission.

    Did not like new IOA chick - they use that far too much as a scape goat.

    Like how Ronan and Tayla, while only playing minute parts, still got to have some personality.

    I'm pretty sure she's shown up in SG-1 at least, in the past, as part of the IOA... and it didn't feel out of place to have her come evaluate Woolsey's performance, as that was something Woolsey himself did in the past (and in Carter's case too).

    enjoyable enough but "upon mature reflection" the plot was so full of holes "collander" would have been a more appropriate title.

    'Twas grand - I guessed immediately AI gal was in his head and related to the find and mildly figured the same for Koya. Liked the fact that Zelenka was also a hallucination (on a side note: Doesn't David Nykl deserve a credit placing by this point? He's in it as much as Teryl Rothery when she got her credit spot).

    It was nothing amazing but we got more Wolsey scenes than normal and it cemented him as my favourite commander since Hammond. Decent enough overall.

    Like how can an hillusination press the button for the transporter?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,813 ✭✭✭BaconZombie


    And also was able to throw Shepperd over the cliff, so I think the AI was controlling them physical but if it could do that way did it not just repair and relaunch the pod itself ?

    I quite liked it.

    It reminded me a bit of the TNG episode The Inner Light which brought back some good memories.

    There were some plot holes but they didn't really upset me and I especially liked the Zelenka bit at the end.

    that kind of thing !

    in fairness if it could do all that it just did then there was no reason for it to be stuck in a bleedin puddle for 2 thousand years. :rolleyes:

    Didn't like this one - there was a sense of deja vu the whole way through, although I'm not sure what I was remembering ... it was reasonably obvious It Was All An Hallucination when Kolya turned up, how did he get to the mainland of the planet? There's no Gate there, he'd have had to come through the Gate in Atlantis, and make his way from there to the Mainland. Sheppard copped on in Home that the trip to Earth was an hallucination, so why didn't he cop himself on this time?

    :confused:
