After another very successful raid against the Lucian Alliance their leader Netan places a bounty on SG1 and thanks to them being tagged during the last raid the galaxies premiere bounty hunters are on their way to Earth to collect. Cameron along with Vala are going to his high school reunion, Daniel is deep in some research at a public library, Teal’c is offworld dealing with some Jaffa issues and Sam is attending a technology conference to demonstrate some of the tech she is “working” on. Meanwhile back in Kansas Vala is making quite the impression on John’s parents and to be honest I think she has been accepted by the mother who maybe sees a bit of a kindred spirit but Cameron is dealing with an old crush and a friend who it seems is more than happy to stir things up a bit.
Vala blends in
Bounty is again a pretty much standalone episode even though the Lucian Alliance and Netan storyline has been active this season but background to that isn’t required to enjoy this story, we get the whole team having their own little adventures and dealing with the bounty hunters who come for them and eventually the big showdown at Cameron’s high school brings them all together. I think it’s safe to say never have so many NDA’s been issues at one time although no doubt in high school tradition they could get away with saying the punch was spiked even though there surely would have been a licensed bar. Either way there is a lot of fun to be had with the episode, Daniel ducking a femme fatale and Teal’c and Sam a more brute force approach to collecting a bounty but the rise of Odai Ventrell played by Mike Dopud brings the action into focus and we get the unexpected resolution, no doubt a character who may have returned if there had been an eleventh season Mike does return to the franchise in Stargate Universe and a guest spot on Atlantis. It was fun imagining Peter DeLuise has he directed his wife Anne Marie playing Amy Vandenberg to lay a smacker on Cameron and it’s easy to imagine Vala interrupting them had more of a meaning:)
Overall Bounty is an excellent episode, lots of action and humour but as we are coming to the end of SG1 you wonder if more time should have been given over to the ORI resolution and fall out but at this point given we did the movie we can’t complain about the writers and cast getting to have some fun. This weeks promo is for the Dune Saga Podcast and next week we are going to be taking a look at the Atlantis episode The Game, hope you join us.

The NBC sister shows Chicago Fire and PD are a guilty pleasure of mine, they both stray a little too much into melodrama but at times can be as hard hitting as any show in the genre. In the recent crossover episodes Three Bells and A Little Devil Complex we got an excellent guest role of Robert Knepper playing Adrian Gish a suspect in a string of arsons going back years and as always he never disappoints.

While searching for a power drain in the depths of the city Rodney and Radak along with a science team discover an active lab and terminal, full of himself and in response to a wager Rodney is careless and is zapped by an energy ribbon, he regains consciousness and everything seems to be fine but it isn’t and now no donut is safe as he develops a voracious appetite to sustain his ever increasing mental superpowers which include telepathy and telekinesis. Further investigation reveals that the lab was exploring the means to artificially accelerate the ability to ascend (similar to what Anubis was attempting) and the machine scanned Rodney’s DNA and made adjustments which if all went well would allow him to join those that went before him. Of course Rodney at his best is not 100% comfortable with himself and the mental component is eluding him, without the physical and mental being in perfect sync the changes to his brain will kill him.
Ooops, I did it again!
Tao of Rodney is another great episode of Stargate Atlantis and allowed David once again to push Rodney into areas of this psyche and personal interaction he has never been at one with, the joys of his superpowers as you would expect make his day but the realisation that he may not be ready and ultimately die causes him to look inward and try to address some of his shortfalls helped by John in particular but the understanding from people who are his friends despite how he may have treated them in the past. One thing this episode really gets right is the cinematography, the episode looks fantastic despite so many scenes shot in restricted lighting, all credit to the director and his DP ( Michael C. Blundell ) for making the HD presentation of the episode so stunning. I personally really enjoy the Tao Of Rodney but it does get some mixed reviews but I think overall the episode has a very strong position in the third season of the show especially given it’s standalone nature.
Many thanks to Brad for joining us this week and the podcast promo we chose to include was for the Sci-Fi Movie Podcast a fantastic weekly show that reviews and discusses all manner of movies in the genre we all have a passion for.
