Double Dose

Well For those who were waiting with baited breath here are my reviews of Atlantis' latest two episodes

Tracker

To honest with you I wasn't expecting much from this episode but was surprised of how it went down. My first expectation when i saw the episode description was "Not another Keller in distress episode" but as I said before I was pleasantly surprised. First I was surprised by the person who did the the kidnapping. It was very cool to see another runner, Ive always wandered if there were more runners other than Ronan. My second surprise was that the writers gave this guy a good back story and not another blah enemy. The third surprise had to be some really good lines between Rodney and Ronan as they were trying to track Jennifer and the runner down. All in all it was entertaining episode it wasn't a super great episode but it wasn't a stinker like "The Seed" so I give a 3.25 out of 5.

First Contact

First I gotta say ever since I saw that Dannie Boy was going to be in Atlantis months ago I've been anxiously awaiting the arrival of this episode and it didn't disappoint from beginning to end. From the beginning I loved Daniel's kid in a candy shop amazement of Atlantis and the banter between Him and Rodney. Secondly I love the new Alien (which really are not new if know what I mean) from their battle suits to their weapons they are just totally cool. You gotta love that really sweet shield that the warrior used. Sorry these kinda elements make my little kid side so happy : ) .

Third I was really happy with the development of Todd and the wraith in this episode from seeing Todd's depression of thinking about what the Wraith would do without having to feed on humans to the quick action of taking the Daedalus. All in all its a great start to a mid season two parter rivaling season 3's funness and season 4's action. I give it a 4.75 out of 5

I can't wait till the second part in two weeks

P.S. After watching "The Queen" for a second time I rate it a 4.5 second on the list of best eps this season.
