olivia_suttonHi all,
Well, I re-watched "Sunday" again. I still think the ep. is weird -- very weird. It had a whole sense of unreality to it (like the *Blake's 7* ep. "Orbit", strangely enough).
The bagpipe music didn't seem *quite* so bad, but it definitely could have been better. Trust me.
And louder. NOTHING is louder than bagpipes in an enclosed space! (I'll never forget hearing the Muskegon Police Pipes & Drum band playing at the Scottish Festival/Ceille in a very tiny hall. It was loud! Very loud! You might think your average freight train is a bit noisy but that's peanuts compared to a Bagpipe and Drum marching band in an enclosed space!)
AND--"Amazing Grace" or "Scotland the Brave" would have worked better in the SGA ep. than whatever it was the poor fellow in a kilt was trying to play. Unsuccessfully.
OK-- the episode, "Sunday", couldn't have been from Beckett's pov, there was just too much going on that he wasn't privy too. Which makes the last scene even more confusing! In a sense, it was like Rodney was *also* dead (please no!) and it made me re-watch "Tao of Rodney" again (which must now be one of my all-time favorite eps. of *Atlantis*). I just didn't get it. Once of the post-Sunday fics I read said that Carson had Ascended, but some reading on the Save Carson website (www.savecarson.com) nixed that idea.
Anyway-- I stand by what I said-- "no body, he's NOT dead"! And it seemed weird, just strange, the skip from the explosion to Carson's funeral.
I WANT MY SCOTTISH DOCTOR BACK!
Oh, and if they get rid of a certain Canadian physicist-- I just won't be able to watch the show anymore. And probably ditto for a certain cute-as-a-button Czech physicist/engineer!
