I've noticed in these first 4 episodes that they've really gotten away from the "Oh, we're in danger of not having ______ this week." type episodes. I'm not saying that's bad per se, but I do think it gave a very much needed and real underlying sense of danger. I hope that sense of danger and uncertainty is something that they keep up.
I really hope they catch on to Rush's shenanigans since it's grown old fast.

I have not missed an episode of this series... what shenanigans are you talking about?
I know hes a bit shady and screwed Lou last week, but what was he alluding to at the end last week about having to trust chloe?

Going off by himself to control the ship and not telling anybody and then acting like Chloe's situation/issue is why that was happening instead of his actions!

This episode seemed designed to make sure you hate Chloe. It was wasted on me because I've hated that character from the start.

Haven't watched this yet. Didn't scott already get a dream/hallucination episode last season? I don't remember much of it because I FF through almost the whole episode.
If this episode is 90% dream could someone just post a short summery of what actually happened and save me an hour...or more likely 15 minutes and a sore thumb.

You must be really struggling with this show considering how trigger happy you apparently are with it? I read your comments every week and it seems like the show is a chore for you to watch since you only watch 10-15 minutes of content out of a 42-44 minute episode. Honestly, I don't know how your getting anything out of that.

Hey, last week I didn't even FF at all, not even montage!
To be fair I rarely skip entire scenes but instead make liberal use of a 5-second skip to hurry things along at times. There have been a few episodes where I've bailed on dream sequences/flashbacks or the rare b-stories I don't care about. I barely care about most of the characters as it is, let alone what they dream about.
As for what I get out of the show, I think it has good story telling potential and I also watch out of some sort of loyalty/attachment to the franchise. I'm sorry if my being negative is spoiling these threads for anyone. I don't mean to thread crap.

What made that episode freaky was that the civilian Young looked and acted just like my Uncle Larry. Must be a Canadian vibe.

It was tolerable if you skipped every single dream sequence completely. Of course that cut the show down to about 15 minutes. My last episode, the show has taken a disastrous turn for the worse in quality. This show is probably going to permanently tarnish the Stargate brand. Congratulation, Syfy. I do not expect the show to get a third season, given the ratings.
