- Does anyone have any Burt Bacharach played by someone other than Burt Bacharach?
- Think Mantovani, Nelson Riddle...Ferrante & Teicher..someone with less of that funky 70s sound.
- I have his Greatest Hits but its just so freaking dated.
- The SG-1 "Groundhog Day" Season 4 episode Window of Opportunity was the funniest thing I've seen on television in a long time.
- Hands down I still like Atlantis better.
- Completely and entirely understanding that without plot holes and character mistakes there would be no story in which to unfold, I often wonder why the SG-1 team hasn't thought of riding ATV's through the Stargate on planets where their objective is 10+ kilometers from their ingress point.

To minimize ecological impact after that incident on PXY-887?
But, seriously, "Window of Opportunity" was a complete hoot. I never thought watching two guys playing golf could make me laugh that hard...
(no subject)
I considered that, along with "to move more stealthily" but surely they could use battery-operated golf-carts?
I never thought watching two guys playing golf could make me laugh that hard...
Teal'c juggling out-of-character was the definitive moment for me. I've not laughed that hard, out loud, in a long, long time.

See the icon for my reaction to Teal'c juggling. Too funny. Like much of the episode, actually :) Hysterical ep all around. I haven't looked at Froot Loops the same since ;p

Ah! I'm sure that's it. Though it was always more fun watching Sheppard & Co. embark. Way more witty and fun. Sorry, but that's just the way it is with me.

Captain Jack Hartness came out of the closet.

I'd say Jack was pretty well established as sexual fluid the first time he appeared in "The Empty Child"/"The Doctor Dances" where the sequence of events was roughly:
1) hit on male RAF dude
2) hit on Rose Tyler
3) eye the Doctor with unfeigned appreciation
4) Rose: "Are the words 'we need a diversion' headed my way." Jack: "Trust me, you aren't his type. I'll go..."
5) watch the Doctor and Rose dance with the look of a guy who completely gets the metaphor
Ianto came out to his family, however. *sobs over Day 4* Was that what you meant? Still a great, if rather depressing, 5-hour block *thunks*

i'll start with these to warm you up slow, but I'm going to have to be pedantic and point out that neither is occuring in a sexual context

okay, so he's alone here but he's about to wake up and find Ianto where he doesn't belong

Jack: "We chould have used you an hour ago for naked hide-and-seek." http://s12.photobucket.com/albums/a243/xofsk/Album%202/?action=view¤t=TW-Janto-2x11-007.jpg

Janto was actually my first slash pairing and I still only have one other (well, one and a half, lol).
Sorry i'm not using the Janto icon. this one is my "that's hot on any number of inappropriate levels" icon which just works better for this scene because I haven't been able to walk through the Botanical Gardens in a pure state of mind since and you don't even want to get me started on stopwatches...
Re: one slashy pic!spam coming up :)
(My, my, Ianto is tasty.)
PS. You're amazing! Thank you for all the eye candy. :)
reply & a slashy pic!spam from a different fandom :)
Another "couple" has since achieved my #1 shot, but Janto is a close second. *smushes them* And then procedes to pimp her favorite series of all time. My only other slash pairing right now is Sanctuary's Watson/Druitt and that might as well be canon because the two actors involved essentially read the script and said to each other: "Okay, this is an emotionally charged situation and the dialog is insanely loaded. Let's see how much eye-sex we can get away with before the Director calls us on it!" Both eps they were in together are just rife with sexual ambiguity (I'll seriously pair off Watson with anything that has a pulse). No kissing, but still some intense stuff :)
Watson is the guy with the goatee, Druitt's the bald one, and the kid who looks like his head is about to explode from the awesome of watching two guys with their personal history hitting on each other is Will, the show's POV Character

(I was reminded of another of my favorite episodes the other day watching SG-1 where they introduced the X-301; reminded me of the one where the doctor falls in love with Amelia Earhart.)
Re: one slashy pic!spam coming up :)
But, oddly, the part that really stuck out for me wasn't the love story (which was gorgeous), it was Toshiko panicking about being a Japanese woman stuck in London during the war and Jack's quiet promise to always take care of her. To me, that just highlighted how much he loves the members of his team and how he'd do anything to keep them safe. Reminds me of the table scene in "Adam". SO sweet...

And there wouldn't be just one of each -- four ATVs onscreen would mean four backups in case of failure.
So they go on foot. Notice that the MALP doesn't go more than five meters from the gate, usually.
It would be prettty funny to see Teal'c on an ATV though.

POWER RANGERS
Sorry, just been forced to hear a lot of Power Rangers in the background lately. I keep hearing "Go go Power Rangers!" in my sleep. *twitch*
In other news, would anyone like to purchase a Power Ranger/Transformers/Star Trek/Terminator/Speed Racer-obsessed child? Super-cheap, and does household labour well! :)

No.
I just have some 16th century sacred music that I'm listening to right now. But I'm guessing that doesn't hit your spot at this very instant.

The only 16th Century music I have in the house is Medieval Cantigas & Minnesang from The Newberry Consort, and you're right, I don't think that's going to do the trick. I'll keep looking.
