Jan. 2nd, 2005 01:25 amI am watching Season 6 of Stargate, also know as the Great Daniel-less Void. I watched 8 eps today, trying to get it over with as quickly as possible. Like ripping off a band-aid. Since I saw Meridian, all the Daniel bits make me cry. I cried at the end of Abyss. Hell, I even cried at the end of the Prometheus one, where Thor showed up (since Michael Shanks does his voice).
I need professional help.
Preferably that of an archaeologist.

Or suffering season 6 for...

Date: 2005-01-01 02:12 pm (UTC)It's what's keeping me going, sitting there all pristine in my bookcase, just waiting to be watched. :hugs Season 7: All that Daniel-y goodness... :happy sigh:
Only 9 more episodes to go (and, hey, Daniel's in two of those anyway!).

Date: 2005-01-01 03:22 pm (UTC)I did watch Abyss though, then when I heard MS was returning, I watched the last 1/3 of the season, then the first 1/3 in repeats. Never have gotten around to watching the middle section. I have no real interest in it, even though I could watch it at any time. I guess I'd rather just ignore it and move on to bettr things. There's been a few times things in s6 were referenced in s7 and 8 that left me scratching my head because I didn't know the details, but nothing major that I can tell.
Maybe I'll have to use your band-aid method and just watch it all as quickly as possible and get it over with. But keep in mind that s7 not only has Daniel-y goodness, there's nekkid Daniel-y goodness. And Jack telling Daniel to go to his Happy Place. [sigh]

Date: 2005-01-01 09:55 pm (UTC)The ep "The Cure" (where they discover tretonin) just screamed out for him. I really enjoyed it, but all the time they were in those ruins, and when they met the queen that had founded the Tok'ra, all I could think was... Daniel would be going mental with excitement here. And I miss the way he translated stuff, a few faltering words followed by a rush of information.
It was funny to see the Prometheus, knowing what goes on in that bridge in Season 8 *g*
Anyway, I will get through it. I spent too long holding out for Season 5 (even though I could have skipped ahead to 6 and 7) to go skipping eps now. I'm over halfway there, and then, as you said... Nekkid!Daniel. And I can't wait for the 'Happy Place' bit. I hadn't heard about that. You're not trying to turn me into a slasher here, are you? ;o)

It's a brief moment, but it hearkens back to earlier Jack/Daniel moments.

Moi? [innocent look]

Date: 2005-01-02 03:21 am (UTC)LOL! You're right. It's not the role he played that I miss, because Jonas does all the translatey stuff. It's the little things - the expressive eyebrows, the lip-lick. The silent suffering hidden under the calm exterior. Jonas is just too damn happy. I like my men angsty *g*

Date: 2005-01-02 10:01 am (UTC)tuned in after MUCH prodding from Miss ConradCaineFortune
You too? That Julie, she has a lot to answer for. She goaded me and goaded me to watch, and bombarded me with photos of a certain archaeologist, and even sourced me the Season 1 DVD's, and dammit, now I'm hooked so bad, I don't think I'll ever recover. Damn her! :shakes fist: ;o)
But what a way to go *g*
Powerful stuff that only got better when I knew the history behind it.
Wow, I can imagine it would have been pretty bewildering, not knowing any of the backstory. But who can resist the Oatmeal Sweater of Lurve? You didn't stand a chance.

Date: 2005-01-03 01:01 am (UTC)Liked the movie. Actually watched the first ep when it came on the telly, all those years ago, and thought it was complete poo *g* Obviously my tastes have since refined :o)
I'm just happy to be in a fandom that hasn't been cancelled yet! I usually turn up to the party late, getting all enthused while the Sword of Damocles is dangling over the show and fans are leaving in droves... Hope I'm not a jinx ;o)
