Stargate Atlantis: Season Five: The Seed
In-brief:
Average, yet quietly promising.
In-detail:
Atlantis Season Five holds a lot of promise.
I think everyone would agree with that. We’ve been through cast changes and plot shake-ups galore since the show’s inception, yet one gets the impression that if the writers and producers could stick with the current cast, we could be on to something.
The second episode of Season Five, titled “The Seed” (yet another fine example of the poetic talents of the Atlantis writing team), has two main purposes. To introduce the character of Richard Woolsey (Robert Picardo) into the Atlantis fold, and to progress the Carson Beckett/stasis plot. In this regard, the episode is reasonably successful.

Stargate Atlantis: New Cast Shot
The SG:A production team are working hard on creating the worst promotional photography in the history of television, this year.
Their latest additional (admittedly, better than previous efforts) involves a very inconsistently dressed team walking heroically (and dryly) through almighty splashing water. Behind them? The gate from Stargate SG-1. The wrong gate. Coloured blue.
*sighs*
Fair play.
