SGA, Burn Notice

[sg_lab2]

OMG, the Sheppard/McKay moments in this ep. were fabulous. Seriously, if John and Elizabeth are not to be, then it's gotta be John and Rodney. :D The idea of McKay/Keller hasn't really bothered me while the whole McKay/Keller/Ronon thing is blech. Ronon/Keller so doesn't work for me either. But Rodney kept asking for John through the whole episode. That's about all I can think to say at the moment.

I have a question about Burn Notice that has been driving me nuts. What happened to Fi's accent from the beginning of the series? I didn't see all the eps. of s1 so I may have missed something.

It was awesome - I just finished watching it! :) And now I'm reading everyone else's comments that I've been resisting reading all day.

Fi's accent - I guess they decided to get rid of it for some reason. There's a little comment about it in the second episode - Michael says "what happened to your accent?" and she says something about getting rid of it because she was in America now or something.

Thanks for the info on Fi's accent. Strangely her American accent is the first one I've ever heard from someone not from the US that bothered me. She always just sounds so strained when she speaks.

Anyway, honestly didn't think I'd love an SGA ep. this season. I have a need to make icons from this ep. :D

I don't really have an ear for accents, but I know what you're saying. But I've seen a lot of people say they thought that her Irish accent was atrocious, so maybe that's why they got rid of it. She's actually British, if I recall correctly.

Question for you - What was the "Arthur" thing about in The Shrine? I'm guessing it's a pop culture reference, but I didn't get it. *somewhat embarrassed to ask*

I don't have an ear for accents either. There always seems to be someone finding an actor's accent that's not their own wrong. She's from England I read today according to imdb.com. Although she's been living in the US for almost twenty years now.

At first I thought Arthur was just a name they pulled out of nowhere, but then I went to gateworld and someone suggested it was from HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy. In the book the main character's name is Arthur and he travels in space in his pajamas. And well, John travels in space and he was wearing his pj's. :D
