Last night's episode of Stargate Atlantis was the eighth in the final season, and saw a whole new role for Rachel Luttrell.

I definitely enjoyed that ep and it would be good to see more of that dynamic before season's end.

It's a shame Scifi brought back the 10-second intertitle, though. I guess they figure the fans don't have any leverage now that the show's in its final season, and that extra minute of ad money could get a couple of execs new cars.
