Right on the money w/ Daniel & why he was leaving the SGC. If you recall at the beginning of SG Atlantis he wanted to go on the expedition to find Atlantis being the foremost authority on the Ancients, but he stayed behind at the SGC because he was needed. Then when they Prometheus was setting out under General Hammond to go to the Pegasus Galaxy to rescue the Atlantis expedition Daniel was on that trip. It makes sense and is in character that he would want to be on the Daedalus to head out to Atlantis and be part of that team. Unfortunately Varna made him miss the boat.

Teal'c is easy to figure out. He left for his people. They are free now and are looking to set up their own government. Teal'c being their leader is needed to help set up their laws, etc. Not really sure what would bring him back to the SGC unless he steps down appointing a capable leader.

Amanda Tapping is out for a couple of episodes as mentioned because of the birth of her child. Not sure why Sam would want to be in R & D when she has always seemed happy on the front line discovering new technology and reverse engineering it.

Should be an interesting season.

Character (Sam) reasons? umm..... she gets to play with all that shiny new tech before anyone else?
also didn't Jack retire so that he and sam could finally have a relationship( if am remembering the sg-1 season 8 finale right...) thus it would manke sense she would make sense that she would want to spend more time "state-side" as it were, and working at nellis, she would be on earth full time, and we allready know jusck moved away from colorado springs, but no mention of where to so.......

it's also a great example of the story line being adjusted b/c of real world events.( like season 4 of angel, b/c Charisma was pregnant.)
feel free to disagree! discuss away!

I also thought Vala was dressed like a Peacekeeper, although I think that was part of the set-up to Cameron's line, "Nice outfit." An inside joke, so to speak, for us Scapers. Although that line might have been only an appreciative male response to such an outfit - and to Claudia.

I, too, am a Farscape fan - miss that one almost as much as Firefly. And it is so terrific to see Ben and Claudia in such great roles. I saw Ben's guest role on CSI (was it two seasons ago?) and was more than a little disappointed to see him as a bad guy . I miss Crichton, et al.

I can hardly wait for Friday's continuation - I did some yelling and cussing at the cliffhanger for SG-1. I have no life - my schedule is dependent on television shows, particularly Sci-Fi Fridays!

There was no mention of this on the show, though I suspect this is what all the Jack/Sam shippers are thinking.

It makes sense for Jack to retire since he's been retired twice now and they keep un-retirng him. And while I'm happy to imagine that Sam and Jack finally got together, I'm going to wait and see if it's mentioned on the show. There was no agreement between the characters that they would get together, though there was some gentle nudging from other characters.

Also, with everything they set out to accomplish - freeing the Jaffa, defeating the System Lords, getting rid of the Replicators - I guess Jack and everyone can move onto other things instead of saving the world on a daily basis. That's my answer now that I've had time to think about it. Just have to see how Cam will get the team back together. The show is called Stargate SG-1 after all. Can't just have Cam running around the universe without a team.

optimus1998 thank you so much, I only watched the new episodes once and considering my beginning alzheimer I was a little fuzzy about SG1. I was also not aware of the timelines being different between SG1 and Atlantis, so I really appreciate your informations
