SGA Rewatch: Daedalus Variations and Ghost in the Machine

May I just say that these episodes were far more enjoyable the second time around. I remember being meh about them before but I had a lot of fun during this rewatch.  Short thoughts because I need to get to bed.

• I have to start with Ghost in the Machine.  I just love love love all of the characters reactions in this and how they can't really know it is Weir until the end where she sacrifices them all.  There is something magical there and bitter sweet.  My imagination world immediately continues with Rodney building Weir a human form body (because the replicators left the specs) and him going to retrieve her from space without telling anyone (because they wouldn't let him).  He then takes her to a world where she can live out her days. He would do this. We know he would! (Who wants to write it?)

• Daedalus Variations: Yay, Rodney got shot.  That just never gets old.  I love how he got to hold Teyla's baby in the end, even though he has only one good arm.  Even better: when she says Rodney would make a good dad and everyone gets uncomfortable.  Rodney as a dad scares me...

• There is something about all the other universes being in a worse position than the cannon universe.  I like Ronon's wisdom when he tells Teyla that she can't worry about all the millions of Torrens, just her own.  Ronon is awesome when he is the voice of wisdom.
