Yeah, my questions have basically been answered and we've just two episodes left to be completely caught up (except that the torrent for Croatoan keeps failing and it's not on iTunes ... *vex*). And the more we find out about Sam's powers, the less consistent they are, but what the hey. *grin* There's brother-smarm galore to make up for it! And its not-so-stellar plotting abilities are not what I watch SGA for, either ...

SGA is doing the same? O RLY now...reading the fic? the best kind of smarm delivery! Maybe it was safer for me to wait for that one...

This is definitely a good time to start watching. :) There are so many little bits of fanon that have been turning up in the show this season ... I *swear* somebody on the staff is reading fic! It's still not in Supernatural's class, as far as the way that the ongoing threads of character development are carried from episode to episode, building on the previous ones ... but it's certainly gone way beyond anywhere I thought it was capable of. I think you'll be pleased ...
