Oi.

Made it through Stargate: Universe "Water" and thought: "Um, okay. There was actually a bit of story going on there, and it was based on the fact that they're stranded on a giant alien ship they cannot steer. Now throw in a shortage of water, a new, potentially dangerous alien lifeform that they can't have sex with AND an inhospitable planet to explore. Maybe things are looking up."

Nope.

The next episode, "Earth", was absolute rubbish. All but 5 minutes of the episode was a soap opera. Yes, I know the difference between "soap opera" and "character development". The entire episode could have been located in a large office building or a block of flats and would have been just as relevant to the Stargate franchise. So, I give up.

Fortunately, there are many other shows like White Collar, Fringe, NCIS, Castle and Dollhouse that are worthy of our time and, hey, none of them are on the Syphilis Channel.

And this is still on the post-convention buzz of FALL IN! Imagine if I had a bad weekend?

As always: Your Mileage May Vary.

Ah, well. Enough of this.
There are figures that need painting!
Talk amongst yourselves.

A few are born with the talent. The rest of us are just too darn stubborn to put down the brush and walk away.
