God, I have A+ friends. I sent out an SOS recently to my best friend saying, basically: help, I'm watching Stargate: SG1 and the quality is uneven! Send episode and season recs! I like Sam, Jack, Daniel and Vala! And she wrote me back with, like, her favourites, and specific character recs, and all that jazz from all ten freakin' seasons of SG1. ♥ I mean, "rec me!" is one thing for a two- or even a five-season show, but ten? Yeah.
So, uh, speaking of: rec me your favourite SG1 episode. I'm kind of floating through the seasons right now picking ones I'm recced and ones I recognise references to in fic, but I just don't have the marathoning urge for this show - which is v weird for me, because normally I am the person who sits down with DVDs of a show, or hooks themselves up with an ep dl community, and blasts my way through the show in. Well. It depends, really. I did Buffy over about six months withsixth_light, I did Angel by myself watching three or four episodes a night and that took me most of a summer, I did Gilmore Girls... really embarassingly fast, like, a season a week, maybe more quickly. And that's from start to finish, you know, premiere to finale. And I have been known to go a little overboard, like, I think with Supernatural, I watched the whole first season in about two days and didn't sleep much. So it's weird for me to come to an S7 episode and to be like, OK, I recognise Jonas, and I'm way spoiled for Daniel's Ascension/Descension (er, should I cut that? Naw.), and I know a bit about the Asgard from SGA, but who's the dude in the black cloak? And who's Baal? And who the heck are the Tauri, or Tau'ri, or whatever?
I did eventually figure this last bit out, and may I just say: that's totally non-intuitive, who picked that?
Anyway, the point is, there is no point but the gazing at the navel. SG1! Yes!
Icon talk: this is the TUI icon I always wanted to have. Tui is a brand of beer here, like, really cheap crappy beer. The Budweiser equivalent, I guess. I hate beer, which makes the whole thing a kind of bitter irony (pun not intended.) The best thing about it is their ad campaign, which consisted for a long time of a slogan, followed by "Yeah, right." Like, in our rugby-loving nation: "It's only a game." "Yeah, right." Or, um... I can never think of the good ones, but you guys all have brains, so. I have a feeling it will become my "You are full of shit!" icon, although my keywords for it are actually "ad campaign."
