Haven’t had time to watch the latest episode of Stargate Universe yet. I’ll probably end up watching it tonight or early tomorrow.

I’ll post an update on it after I watch it. Hmmm… I wonder if Hulu has the episode up yet, I’ll have to check that out.

I’m guessing this last episode is number 4… if you put the first episode as a two part thing. I believe it was called Air, and was a 3 part story arc? Not sure.

According to Hulu, this episode is titled Darkness.

Last episode of Stargate Universe dealt with power issues in more than one way. The first power issue is the ship is running out of juice. The other power issue is that people don’t trust each other. Dr. Rush for example, he wants to be all high and mighty… wants to be in charge. etc.

The interesting part of the episode was… no, not the part with the shower… lol No no, it was that you can tell groups of people don’t trust other groups of people etc. The people back on earth seem to be trying ot tangle themselves in as well throug the communication stones.

You would think that after so many years, the people on Earth would listen before making irational decisions. They aren’t on the freakin’ ship now are they? How do they know what’s best for the lives of others.

I’m assuming the lady that the Colonel visited is his… wife? Girlfriend? Shoot, how do you explain to someone that they’re about to speak with their loved one, and yet they won’t look like them at all.

Anywho, those are just some of the thoughts I had regarding this episode. We’ll see what next Friday brings.

Okay, so I’m watcing the second episode of Stargate Universe. Uh, Desert Planet. Right…

So they have these stones which allows them to contact Earth at anytime. That’s nice, they can keep in touch. How sweet.

Okay, so they’re on this desert planet so they can find a way to get their air thing working again in order to survive.

What do they find on the plnet? Sand. Well and this thing that keeps buggin’ them… and it looks like it likes water. Hmmm interesting, perhaps that’s where all the water went to in the first place.

And a face just appeared out of the sand. (Yes I’m watching it as I type)

Typical how when you get too warm that you start seeing things. Oh yes, it always happens like that.

The ‘kid’ is rather annoying… sure he wants to understand crap… but shoot, he’s no scientist.

Reminds me of an episode of Enterprise, where they were on a Desert Planet. Hmmm… probably not though.

The ex con is fun. Seems like he likes to threaten people with his weapons.

Obviously they’ll have to get the air working again, ’cause that would suck fo rthem to be stuck on a ship.

I enjoy the thought of a mutany.

Loved the part where the guy is about to step through the gate and the scientist tells the ex con to shoot the guy. Classic!

“Why’d you do that?”

“He told me to.”

And so the guy has a flashback of when he knocked up some gal. The swirrly thing comes back and wakes him up. He finds the lakebed, which is what they were looking for to begin with and help arrives.

I’m wondering what happened to the two deserters… that went on their marry way. Talk about getting rid of cast members you don’t need/care about?

I wonder if they’ll pop up later on episodes, and become enemies… oh let’s hope not. That would be too cliche in my opinion.

Ex con is really cool. Motivating his commanding officer like that. Telling him to get up, that he has to make it. Sweet.

Nice how they incorporated the fact if you keep an object in the event horizon that the wormhole on the gate keeps open. Very cool.

And the ship goes on its way… with the air supply thing fixed. Allowing them to survive.

Not to mention some music about “Don’t forget to breathe” playing over it all.

Well, except for the fact of the small sucker ship that was stuck to the vessel… that flys off when they’re in hyperspace. Hmmm, interesting.

Yep, the adventure continues. Can’t wait till next week. Love the show!
