The Terrible Twos!!!!

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

McKayBeckett.jpgOh… the agony…

It’s only two days until the Atlantis Season Four premiere. As such, the itch that I haven’t been able to scratch for a few months should be getting better. But oh, no! It’s worse. The closer we get, the harder it is to wait. So here’s my list of twosomes that I long to see again.

1. McKay and Sheppard – They make me laugh so much with their brotherly high jinks.
2. Ronin and Teyla – I’m not a Reyla ship fan, however, I am a huge Reyla gen fan! Watching them exchange looks behind the backs of the mad Earthers is just lovely.
3. Lorne and Zelenka – These two characters have developed an odd but enjoyable friendship. I hear there’s even slash for them. O_O Heavens.
4. McKay and Beckett — *sob*
5. Kolya and Sheppard – It seriously chafes me that they killed Kolya. He was a wonderful villain, dark but funny, scary but intriguing. I miss him…

Three Times Titillation…

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

It’s now three torturous days until the Stargate: Atlantis Season Four Premiere! And so I present to you my three lists of three things. Personally, I think they’re three-rrific. ;-)

  • Three Women I Love to Loathe!
  • 1. Chaya (Need you ask??? Chaya is a lying, conniving little *bleep.* While I don’t entirely blame her for hiding her ascendiness, I do blame her for giving our heroes false hope that a compromise might be reached.)
    2. Allina (The Back-Stabbing Bimbo from The Brotherhood! I soooooo despise this woman. She played on Rodney’s affections and then betrayed him. My Rodney! Honestly. Some people should be neutered.)
    3. Shen Xiaoyi (The only Chinese, and only female member of the IOA, Shen turned on Weir in a heartbeat to cover her own butt.)

  • Three Men Who Make Me Drool
  • 1. Major Lorne (Who doesn’t love the extreme hotness that is Lorne? His smile is adorable, verging on John Sheppard adorable, and he paints. If he cooks, the man is perfect. Plus, I own www.kavansmith.com. And Lorne is played by Kavan Smith. J
    2. Michael (When he’s human.) I have loved the actor who plays Michael since his role in Star Trek: Enterprise.
    3. Ronin (*Just paste a goofy grin on my face and move on.*)

  • Three Men Who Need to Be Smacked Upside the Head
  • 1. Woolsey (He flips position more often than a flapjack. I really can’t stand this guy. And that is despite adoring Robert Picardo. I don’t even love to hate Woosley. I just hate him.
    2. Kavanagh (Bleh!)
    3. Smeadon (Double-Crossing Guy from The Storm and The Eye)

    My Heart Flutters Along…

    Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

    What first made me love Daniel?

    The answer is simple.

    It was the fluttering eyelashes.

    Does it every time. What is worse, my boyfriend has figured that out.

    I’m doomed.

    But happy…

    And somehow, this clip just seem appropriate.

    Go, Vala!

    Wednesday, September 5th, 2007

    Shanks with Doig at 2002 Comicon

    Michael Shanks, who played Stargate icon Dr. Daniel Jackson in Stargate: SG1 and Stargate: Atlantis is set to guest star on new scifi favorite, Eureka!

    The episode featuring Shanks will air on Sept. 25 on the SciFi Channel. Shanks plays an artist named Christopher Dactylos who winds up as the chief suspect in a murder investigation. In a TV Guide interview, Shank’s noted that his character was fired by Global Dynamics due to a personality conflict with company head Nathan.

    In an amusing twist, Shank’s wife, Lexa Doig will appear as a guest on Eureka in the week prior to Shank’s own appearance.

    Cat, cat, CAT!

    Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

    In the pilot of Stargate: Atlantis, Rodney had a cat. Ad let’s face it, Rodney is clearly a cat kinda person. He need one. Ever since they got back in touch with Earth, I’ve thought that they should have pets on Atlantis. And now, I’ve found the perfect pet for Rodney!!! Check it out…
