As someone who enjoyed both, I saw this as an absolute win! And besides, after a while, we rarely got to see the world outside of what the Stargate program's successors were up to. What innovations were they slowly leaking into the world? How was that affecting research and day to day life?
It really goes to the talent of David Hewlett. He has delivered a masterclass of character development since being the arrogant prick we met in 48 Hours. The fact that we as an audience learn to love and respect what should be an unfavorable person definitely shows the acting chops he has.
I like the idea that the reason Tyson disappeared is because he went to the toilet and got hit by the freeze lighting. No ones finding his body until it thaws. Slumped over a toilet, boxers round his ankles.
For once I was exciting about the guest stars. There was that time Stargate brought on Michael E. Ryan, whom was the Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force and I couldn't care less.
I just wish Keller had been able to flex her own scientific muscles more in this episode, rather than being the female voice of reason. It's an issue Atlantis!Carter also had most of the time, despite being the superior scientist to McKey, by his own admission.
To be fair her knowledge is basically useless in a physics problem situation. Now put them into a scenario that needs any kind of doctoring and she is much more in charge
That time an episode of Stargate: Atlantis turned into an episode of Eureka.

This was originally aired as the "earth day" episode for NBC Universal that week. Which is why boss cares so much about saving the planet

Being endangered of dying of hypothermia in the desert on the middle the day is a rare feat. Gotta love the unpredictability of the Stargate Franchise
always looking for new ways to torture our characters
Bill Nye slapping a rich man's pet scientist and telling him to man up is still amusing to me.

Is a room full of McKay's better or worse than the room full of Baal's?
Both. They can accomplish many great things... but be utterly insufferable while they're at it.
kinda wish they had frozen tyson now
