Review

This season the Pegasus Galaxy gets its own brand of replicators -- not as powerful as our own ones, but still pretty nasty, with a grudge against Atlantis, because they were created and then abandoned by the Ancients (who seem to be less and less deserving of any sort of respect as time goes on). What with Replicators in addition to the Wraith, the team are rather busy -- but they still get a couple of "comical" episodes with Lucius Lavin (Harry Mudd by any other name -- and I never liked Harry Mudd). Old friends depart. And Weir finally gets some decent storylines, but too late to save the character.

Rating: 3.5

[ unmissable | great stuff | worth watching | mind candy | waste of time | unfinishable ]
