Well, the build-up to this season's ending has been going pretty well. Still, I haven't been as shocked by anything in this series as I was by a Stargate SG-1 episode that aired on Friday.
If you watch the Stargate show, this Friday's actually managed to take me by surprise, and brought a well-earned tear to my eye. They've run all the main characters into near-death, and death, situations enough time that I was pretty sure the dead person in the episode was the Wells guy they featured in the last few episodes. Who it turned out to be actually managed to surprise me, and give me a slight gut-wrench.
It also touched on the topic of our servicemembers putting themselves in harm's way. I hope Enterprise can achieve that just once before it goes off the air.
