Siren Song:
I think all the scenes between Sam and Daniel on the Tel'tak were good. They refer very much to meridian, and Sam's thoughts are close to Daniel. And the sentence: And
that was a crime! - very god. I like the scenes when it gets to the moral (and they are mostly with Daniel)
Yes, yes, yes!!!
A really good reference to "Meridian". I think this completes this episode only more and make it better. In one of your post you wrote "every really Stargate fan had to read the books". I agree, because the good books gives so much more to the series. And I like it to see Daniel in the moral scenes. He is the conscience of the team, the good guy.
The Chosen:
For me it's also some months ago since I've read the book. I do not think it was confusing, but I don't like it when there happend too much on too much places. It's to tiring to follow them all. "Exogenesis" is a little bit in the same way. (Maybe because of the same writers?!)
Yeah, the jumper scene was really the best.
Maybe you remember at the beginning of the book there was a similar scene, where Shep don't allow Rodney to get to the controls without permission.
I like the most of the scenes when the writers describe how Shep interact with ancient devices. We know it's a thinking process, but on the screen it's hard to show and so the books are
again very important to complete the series.
Halcyon:
I most remember the scene when Ronon go to the warground and ended the battle alone. It was so typical for him. The guys on this planet are really stupid!! Use Wraith as pets!!!! And play wargames!!!! What kind of ideas are that?!?!? And I remember the scene nearly at the end when this Wraith shot two times from a near distance and Shep collapsed. I was not sure how the writer would solve this!!! Because since when do they wear a bulletproof vest?!
But in every of the SGA books I've read Sheppard gets somehow injured.
Is this a special kind of honour?!
