 But... lying to the remaining not-yet-violent Replicators and tricking them to go through to a space gate? &nbsp;Does that not seem an Awful Idea? &nbsp;Remember what happened when SG-1 lied to and abandoned Fifth? &nbsp;Once free, what was an ally became someone with a legitimate reason to be pissed off at the good guys. &nbsp;It's basically inevitable that these people will be found and thawed, and now they hold a grudge against the people of Atlantis.

+: '''The Shrine''' ''[[2008]] [[August 22]]''
+(First watched 2008-08-23) &nbsp;The end solution seemed really simple. &nbsp;After all that fretting about whether they can successfully perform surgery (&quot;My brain isn't a deck off the back of your house!&quot;)... they put a hole in his skull and this thing just pops on out?
+So even in this non-crazy future McKay has fallen for Keller, eh?
+First episode aired since the cancellation announcement.
+---
+: '''Whispers''' ''[[2008]] [[September 5]]''
+(First watched 2008-09-07) &nbsp;Pretty boring, really. &nbsp;''Another'' bunch of messed-up Michael hybrids they're stuck dealing with offworld, with the difference being that most of the cast isn't in the episode. &nbsp;Sheppard's there, McKay for a couple minutes, and ex-regular Carson.
+The things felt very &quot;fast zombie&quot;-ish. &nbsp;I thought it was an interesting twist that they were blind, though, and thus were free to have the ability to excrete fog and take away everyone else's ability to see, too.

+: '''The Queen''' ''[[2008]] [[September 12]]''
+(First watched 2008-09-13) &nbsp;Todd! &nbsp;Using Teyla for their mutual (?) benefit in taking over an alliance to allow them to not necessarily need to suck the life out of humans. &nbsp;And now also... Kenny. &nbsp;&quot;Seriously, the next time we have to name one of these guys, we should take a vote.&quot; &nbsp;Right on that one, Rodney.
+---
+: '''Tracker''' ''[[2008]] [[September 19]]''
+(First watched 2008-09-23) &nbsp;So this time ''Keller'' gets her chance to un-runner a runner offworld using what's at hand.
+McKay and Ronon have long made for an unlikely pair of friends, but now an unlikely pair of romantic rivals too? &nbsp;Ahahaha.
+---
+: '''First Contact''' ''[[2008]] [[September 27]]''
+(First watched 2008-09-28) &nbsp;McKay and Jackson may be great characters on their own shows, but the chemistry between them is a bit weird. &nbsp;Jackson's natural benevolence and McKay's natural snideness is a weird mix, but they can both be snippy to each other.
+---
+: '''The Lost Tribe''' ''[[2008]] [[October 10]]''
+(First watched 2008-10-11) &nbsp;Wow, what a packed episode. &nbsp;McKay, Jackson, Travelers, Wraith, '''Asgard'''!?
+---
+: '''Outsiders''' ''[[2008]] [[October 18]]''
+(First watched 2008-10-18) &nbsp;Ehh, I feel like I've seen this episode before. &nbsp;Team goes to a town that can't defend itself, bad guys come and leave team unable to call for help, team must hide the people and find some way to scare off, defeat, or trick the bad guys.
+Glad to see Beckett is back to regular service, even if it's not on Atlantis. &nbsp;As a permanent off-world doctor he seems to be happy and doing good.
+The trick that ultimately gets rid of the Wraith ground force... yeesh. &nbsp;I mean, the whole point of resisting was that they didn't want to just give the Wraith some of the townspeople. &nbsp;So instead they trick some of the townspeople into becoming bait that gets blown up along with the Wraith!? &nbsp;Sure, they were the ''asshole'' townspeople who were the first to want to do as the Wraith said, but that's just not right.

+: '''Inquisition''' ''[[2008]] [[October 25]]''
+(First watched 2008-10-26) &nbsp;I guess it took a clip show to get Robert Picardo, Connor Trinneer, and Colm Meaney into the same episode of Stargate.

+: '''Brain Storm''' ''[[2008]] [[November 21]]''
+(First watched 2008-11-23) &nbsp;Ahahaha. &nbsp;It was great enough when McKay ''referenced'' [[Neil deGrasse Tyson]] last year, but I wasn't expecting to actually see him in an episode. &nbsp;Also [[Bill Nye]]! &nbsp;Not that having [[Dave Foley]] around is nothing, but he wasn't playing himself.

+: '''Vegas''' ''[[2008]] [[January 2]]''
+(First watched 2009-01-04) &nbsp;Wow. &nbsp;A very nonstandard episode, but well done. &nbsp;I'm not a big follower, but I've seen just enough of the modern crime television show to appreciate the style parody. &nbsp;Certainly beats another trip to the generic village set and a firefight against the most recently discovered Michael creation.
+So even though it took place entirely in an alternate reality, it hinted an obvious link to &quot;our&quot; reality at the end. &nbsp;The transmission would for some reason be more powerful in other realities that were briefly connected to, meaning &quot;our&quot; Wraith have probably learned the location of Earth.
+---
+: '''Enemy At the Gate''' ''[[2008]] [[January 9]]''
+(First watched 2009-01-09) &nbsp;Wow. &nbsp;As a whole, Atlantis's end leaves many more loose ends than SG-1 did. &nbsp;Sure, there was the Ori thing still going on, but [[Stargate SG-1 Season 8|Season 8]] was really like a finale season and gave fairly satisfying ends to a lot of long-term things. &nbsp;For Atlantis, these balls are all really still in the air. &nbsp;However, that accepted, this was a pretty cool episode.
+Characters in from all over the place. &nbsp;A few familiar Earth faces, the commanders of Daedalus-class vessels we haven't seen in a while, even Kavanaugh. &nbsp;Todd, of course.
+A major Wraith threat to Earth that takes everybody risking all, and succeeding. &nbsp;However, the landing next to California... well, I wonder if they'd have gone that way if there was going to be a Season 6. &nbsp;As I said before, a lot of balls are left in the air in Pegasus. &nbsp;As Ronon brings up at the end, will the powers that be on Earth really want to send Atlantis back?
+The closing image threw me a bit. &nbsp;They had a lineup of the major characters admiring the view... along with a woman I didn't even recognize? &nbsp;Seemed a bit out of place.
+Awww, Carter's Phoenix being renamed the General Hammond in his memory. &nbsp;*sniff*
