Default Atlantis 3x05 (SPOILERS)

So... those WEREN'T the same Replicators SG-1 has encountered time and time again? That seemed to be the explanation we got here, and yet they could still do the same fingers-in-the-forehead-telepathy deal. What's up with that? Or did I miss something?

Nope, not the same replicators - although Rodney did theorize that they might be related. All in all, a direct rip-off of the SG-1 episode with the Asgard time-dilation trap...but still entertaining. These past few Atlantis eps have been fun.

WTF happened on SG-1 tonight? I got a new toy today, but I didn't program the motherfucker right. I have about 6 minutes total of SG-1.

Crazy monsters are attacking people in the woods on Earth near O'Neill's cabin where Mitchell and Landry are spending a relaxing weekend being bored and on an alien planet. Turns out the personal cloaking devices they got from that secret clan of Jaffa warriors are somehow allowing these funky parasite slugs from another dimension into ours. When they get into a host, they mutate it's DNA into a huge, wild, aggressive beast. SG-1 figures everything out and goes hunting in the woods. Lots of P-90 fire later, the beasts are taken care of and the team heads back to the cabin for R'n'R.

Probably a solid-lifter 289 Hi-Po (the top engine available without buying a Shelby GT350). They tend to be very noisy.

Ya see, I don't have a problem with a big vroom vroom reving noise, but hearing the tappets click like that would put me off.

Most solid-lifter engines do that. The 289 Hi-Po was notorious for being noisy as hell.

I dunno though.. I don't think they said definitively either way. They did refer to them as if they were different, but then maybe THESE replicators are the ones responsible for the original ones in our universe.
