Pre-Sci-Fi Friday thoughts

[butterfly]

My only must-see TV at the moment is Sci-Fi Friday (there are other shows that I watch as time and interest allow).

My most intense fannish love at the moment is Stargate (as evidenced by my last couple of vids). I'm very much in love with the original show, and I'm vastly fond of its spinoff. It's funny, that I only fell in love with the show not quite two years ago (in the break between seasons 7 and 8), but I've already cycled back to intense glee with it (odd experience -- rewatching the VividCon dvds and remembering that when I first bought the 2003 ones, Banging on the Door was one of the vids that I skipped because I had no clue about the fandom and believed myself to have no interest in it).

I'm really glad that I fell in love with the show after Daniel had already left and come back. Because he's definitely the focal point of my love (though I adore Jack and Teal'c and now Cameron, and Sam a lot of the time, and several of the non-main characters as well) and I'm pretty sure that I would have gone crazy with missing him if I'd tried watching S6 in real time (in fact, judging by my behavior in Angel after Doyle's death, I might have boycotted six altogether).

I would, in fact, totally watch The Daniel Jackson Show (I would also watch The Michael Shanks Variety Hour, but that's between me and my shallow, shallow heart) if it were available. I would watch the 'Daniel Spends An Hour Each Week Learning An Alien Language' show. Watching Daniel makes me happy. Just... happy in this simple, easy way. I like watching him, like watching Michael Shanks be him (my all-time favorite episode is Meridian because Michael is just so very good there).

So, I don't really have any kind of solid review type stuff with SG-1 at the moment, simply because I'm too busy being in love with Daniel.

Right now, Atlantis is all about the Rodney/John for me. They work better as a pair (though I have a not-so-secret fondness for Rodney/Sam, as I rewatched Redemption recently and she gets so cute and snarky with him -- "Before I take the credit for this, shouldn't it be pointing at the Stargate?" or something adorable like that. And Rodney's adorable response -- "You're very good." all sarcastic and yet completely sweet at the same time. Aw.).

On Battlestar, I'm enjoying just letting it wash over me. I want to have more of a chance to absorb the show before I start deciding what I think about it.
