Once again,

allisnow gets me into a new show.

jalara? You were right on the money, hon. A strong, kickass, not-prone-to-showing-her-emotions woman with a sensible streak as wide as the Beltway. I like.

It's a good show. Some of the acting seems a little unsubtle, but the lines are good and it's nice to watch something and not feel "I've seen this character/situation/enemy/achilles' heel/weapon/planet before..." which is what tends to happen in SGA. And it's fun guessing at who's the killer.

Oddly enough, this is a show that I can watch while eating dinner. Although I sorta wince at the maggots.

The difficulty with writing fic for this series is that anything not geared towards romance is naturally going to be very technical in aspect which most people don't cope well with when it comes to writing fic. They can do the romance and relationships - obviously, we all have feelings, emotions, thoughts, desires - but the detail of action-adventure is trickier - especially if you have people who might nitpick in your area. And we're all scared of the nitpick. Well, not scared exactly. But I feel a sense of shame when I've written a paragraph or two around something technical and someone comes in and corrects me - I didn't do my research well enough.

It would be interesting though: I've only ever written for fandoms with a strong sci-fi or fantasy element, so this would be new. We'll see.
