Apparently, no one. That ending was rushed as {Eric's Grandma would not approve of the words I want to use}. :(

That seems to be the norm, this season: stretch out the story and resolve it in the last five minutes, but don't really resolve it because we want to go on to the next story, and maybe there's a plot hook we want to use later, but we're not sure if we will use it later, and OOOH! Shiny!

Yeah. Not too happy with the way things are going.
 

Yeah, I've noticed that lately too, Kesh. They set up all this Kinsey stuff, even when it transports over, and then boom the ship's destroyed. That makes about a kind of sense that isn't.

On the plus side, this should kill off the Trust episodes. Of course, this just means that there'll be some new Earth-based conspiracy. I don't mind it when one Goa'Uld falls and another rises to take it's place...that makes some sense. But Earth Conspiracies doing the same is just a little silly.

I liked the episode...except for that rushed ending. Who else thinks Kinsey's going to try to become a new System Lord? ;)

Why not, he got the knowledge of earth government structure...and the intellect of a super being...bad scary combo.
 

At a certain point in a long running shows life, once all the characters are well established and there are a few large plot arcs I think a show should cut their season in half and do 2 hour episodes. It usually happens around the season 6 mark, you start getting alot of clip show -then big show you can see them heading that way naturally.

That way the writers only have to think of say 13 stories and it would actually be cheaper to do it this way. Can't figure out why it hasn't been done.

Um, I think it is more interesting to note that Kinsey knows that they don't have enough power to power-up the ancient weapon right now. (at least that is they way I recall things).
