SGA 5x18: "Identity" Talkback (Spoilers)

[JME2]

Dr. Keller's body is taken over by a cunning thief, who uses the situation to try and acquire advanced technology from Atlantis.

Well, the usual talkback thread is up as Atlantis now enters the final three episodes of its concluding season...

Eh. Filler. Also, that gun with the upside-down iron sights made me slap myself in the face.

[Crazedwraith]

A big fat meh for this episode.

Keller in that flashback was so incredibly whiny and if they were aiming for humour with that last Radek/Rodney moment they fell flat. I mean one of his closest colleges and you don't care that he got stabbed in the gut with a pair of pliers? I mean come on!

robber lady: I'll lead you to the device but I have one condition.
McKay: You are in no position to make dema-
Sheppard: What is it?
McKay:


^^ my favorite part of this so so episode.

Nice to know the chick at the end bought a bullet courtesy of her best buddy.

Welcome to the world of pointlessness! It's almost as if they didn't have a series to wrap up!

They don't intend to wrap anything up, that should be pretty clear by now. I don't particularly think that's a bad thing btw either.

It's a similar situation to SG-1 Season 10. They didn't know those episodes were going to be the last ones.

Besides other than the wraith being at large. Atlantis has wrapped most of its big plots. Koyla, the Asurans and Micheal have all bitten it.

Indeed, as far as i'm concerned Atlantis is ending on a high. This is a relatively bland episode. But that's not the same as a bad one.
