Okay, this episode I thought started out a bit slow, but redeemed itself in the second half. I really liked it once it picked up.

It will interesting to see what happens to Elizabeth. That took me by surpise. I don't think they'll eliminate two main characters in one season, but then again......The CG did make a comment about who he thought should be in command and Elizabeth did say something about resigning her position.

Anyhow, loved the graphics/lighting. The filming just keeps getting better.

Oh, oh, oh, did anyone realize the new doctor (Jewel Straite) played Ellia in Instinct back in season two? I think she use to play on Serenity too.

Oh, finally, kind of interesting how they have sidelined all their enemies, without actually having to wrap up the storylines by jettisoning them off into dead space. Although, I'm not sure I'm so suprised by this move.

Of course, Rodney will come through at the last possible second in September.

LOL!

I really enjoyed this episode. I love how new ships just keep popping up. LOL. Now we have The Apollo. I don't think Elizabeth is going anywhere. I think she was just having a moment of frustration with the military and was just venting to another female. It will be interesting to see what McKay will pull out of his bag of tricks to get them out of this one.:huh1:

She was so good as Kayle on Firefly/Serenity. (I love that show)
When I first saw Instinct I thought she looked so familiar so I imdb'd her. I love TV quirks like that, how in SCIFI people can play multiple character because of stage makeup *grin*.

Ben Browders wife played at least three characters on Farscape, 2 of them were recuring roles.

I noticed that too. We talked about that a bit a while back.

I have to double check, but I think David Nykl has a guest spot on the upcoming season of Eureka.
