Stargate Atlantis: Season Five: The Daedalus Variations
In-brief:
Better…
In-detail:
Thank goodness. A glimmer of hope. Nothing outsanding, nothing overly memorable; but it was better. A nice sci-fi concept nicely realised with minimal garbage. Atlantis should try this more often.
It’s been a few weeks since viewing the episode unfortunately – busy times have afflicted me, so I’m writing a few weeks later with only a hurried re-watch for guidance. Here are my thoughts, anyway.

Stargate Atlantis: Season Five: Broken Ties
In brief:
Continued mediocrity.
In detail:
Jason Momoa (Ronon) can act, at least a bit. This episode proved that. He had some truly nifty scenes throughout here, and there were indeed strong moments from Sheppard, Teyla and Woolsey.
That’s all that redeems this episode in any way. The plot is truly awful. Barely existent. “Broken Ties” follows on from last season’s “Reunion” (which was average) and manages to further cloud and confuse Tyre’s character.
