SGA Ep: Outsiders
Maybe I'm missing something.
If Jervis handed the plague survivors over to the Wraith, wouldn't that mean the Wraith would then know who was safe to eat? I'm guessing Jervis wasn't thinking his plan through.
Also?
Dropping a mine on a buttload of Wraith = good.
Dropping a mine on a bunch of humans whose only crime was to be short-sighted and inconvenient = bad.
The writers really seem to have hit a wall this season, which gives me no hope that SGU is going to be any good, because the same writers who ran out of ideas on SG-1 and SGA are going to be writing it. I think it's long past time (and at the same time, too late) for an infusion of fresh blood on the writing staff.

Next week's episode worries me because in the hands of any other show, it could be a brilliant exploration of a series of moral and ethical dilemmas (like "The Measure of a Man" on ST:TNG), but in the hands of our writers? I don't think they're willing or able to take the hard road like they'd need to. Where's Melinda Snodgrass when you need her?
