#sga rewatch

[langslingslinger]

i can't get over how much i simultaneously love and hate "duet" (SGA s2 e4). it's such a common trope in scifi - alien/ other person controls your body and you do weird shit but i just cringe everytime i see rodney act Like That

The lead prisoner or whatever is getting onto Rodney about not being able to fix the puddle jumper. He says "I know your type. You whine and you complain, and you see to it that your every task is viewed as some impossible achievement; so that when you do succeed, your gargantuan efforts are viewed as all the more heroic."

And John's looking at him like 'Only I get to talk to shit to McKay about his ego'

That face says 'how dare you insult my boyfriend, that's my job'

Doing a series 1 SGA rewatch and I really wish they’d spent more time exploring the resource problems. They briefly mention food shortages but never properly address how they’ve fixed it. But also how were they planning on coping if Pegasus was uninhabited and they couldn’t trade? What idiot planned this mission?

Also John basically undermines Liz’s authority every episode, if I were her I would have stuffed him in the brig by now. She needs to be channeling Laura Roslin energy!

John looks perpetually confused.

David Hewlett has at least 3 times the lines of everyone else put together and I hope this was reflected in his pay!

Not me bawling my eyes out during this scene between Radek and me mans Rodney Olay the end of ‘This Mortal Coil’. Nope.

WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY JOHN SHEPPARD LOOKS SO freaking SAD WHEN RODNEY AND ALINA ARE WORKING TOGETHER IN "THE BROTHERHOOD"

I'll tell you why, his heart just broke in 2 seeing Rodney flirting with someone who isn't him

hmm. well, it sorta worked. Rodney and john napping in the rain. The top one is meant to move. I can never make things smoothe, I haven’t the patience :) well, mcshep thingy for a dingy november 

[gif: digital drawing that moves a bit. Rodney and John from stargate atlantis sit in front of a round window on a wide seat with blankets. They are wearing sweaters. John is kind of curled against the wall with his knees up watching Rodney, he blinks a few times and falls asleep. Rodney is looking at a phone, he glances at John and smiles seeing he's asleep. Outside its raining. Image: a still picture of the same. ]

Have I had too much alcohol, or is watching Rodney pour the rest of the coffee on himself after the first try failed just really fucking hilarious?  Y/Y

Dr Radek Zelenka is too good for this world
