I was disappointed with the episode with Vala's dad, then again I don't like the actor. The ep just seemed kinda cheesie... although I did catch some interesting little bits in the conversation. If you take the part where Jasic is talking to Carter, and interpret a bit you end up with:
"The truth is the Stargate program doesn't get the support it used to from the people in charge" etc..
the one with Adriana also seemed like it would end up being a dream ep.
I would of rather had Ford brought back then Michael.
