I'm a little confused as to how so many people can watch the SGA episode "Vegas" and not catch the fact that the transmission will be an issue next episode, with our regular set up. Hel-lo..

Who..didn't catch that?

Every single one of the people commenting on the episode which I have read today. I hit about 40 posts of either episode commentary posts or posts to talk in the comments and didn't see one single person notice that, so I gave up.

There's also a lot of people who think that the Rodney in Vegas is Rod from McKay and Mrs. Miller.

Which is driving me INSANE. As I posted on a couple of people's LJs, we've seen 10 AU or different timeline Rodneys in Stargate. Why does the most memorable have to obviously be the same as this one? He doesn't! :)

It's driving me insane, as well. Although I have to object to two of the titles you're using here: "Replicator Rodney" is not a Replicator, he's a clone with a nanites in him. And Vegas Rodney normally works in Atlantis, not Area 51.

They're just my descriptions to differentiate :P But you get the idea.

Because most of them were too busy flailing about the characters they ship to pay attention to the plot?

Kinda! Although there was some nice commentary on cinematics here and there, and also some very stupid commentary. (There are people who think that filming shows is done for the express purpose of providing screencappers with something to cap, did you know that? They're very put out when the moody lighting effects are difficult to render into stills.)

Amazing how many little battles about Keller sprang up, or who Rodney is married to here (or whether he is, or is a widower, or is cheating, or just wears the ring to attract women -- seriously, what the hell?)

And the selective deafness in the people convinced they heard that the medic John was involved with and tried to save was a 'he'.

[eliyes.livejournal.com]

Yes! Despite the fact that the medic was so clearly defined as female that I half expected Rodney to tell John, "That medic was my sister". I'm glad that's not what happened, mind, because that'd be a bit too much, but we're definitely talking a woman.

Although this John was never married. *ponders him. ponders him very much*
