i love when a show has such a strong cast of characters. like, they're just enjoyable to watch and even without their storylines, their characterization and interactions are great

#jay chatter #even when a show has less than stellar plots... as long as the characters are good tbh #sga has been fun #i love falling in love with a whole cast #same feeling watching the force awakens

5/16/24

It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these- well over a month, I think. Oops. Well, first off, I have finished the Belle Mirrorverse book; it was darker than I expected but I think it did a good job of putting a new twist on the 1991 film.

I’ll probably read my library books next, although for Reasons I’m going to wait until the 25th to read Night Watch. Lately, I’ve also been using the library to skim the ER TV series (AKA only watching the special features because I’m a wuss). I’ve taken a handful of screencaps that I might end up posting here.

Confession time: I skipped an episode of the new ATLA show because I’d heard about the changes to Bumi’s characterization and I did not want to see it. Which was extra frustrating because I like Utkarsh Ambudkar from his role on CBS Ghosts and I think he would have been great as a more cartoon-faithful version of Bumi. So I’ve scheduled a weekly Jay post for this summer. Back to the new ATLA show: it was a mixed bag for me but I will probably watch the next seasons.

While I have no plans to watch Bridgerton, I clearly have not been immune to the pretty gifsets, especially when they feature Simone Ashley’s character. Similarly, I’ve enjoyed some fan content of The Owl House but right now my media backlog is big enough I’m not likely to get around to it any time soon.

Movie-wise, I rewatched Love & Friendship on the 4th and BATB 2022 on the 5th. Because I needed some comfort movie content. I ought to watch some movies I haven’t seen, like The Mummy, Sense & Sensibility 2024, or Chess in Concert. Hopefully I’ll have made the time to watch them by the end of the summer.

I’m still greatly enjoying Static Shock, Leverage, and The Librarians. They’re all fun shows with great characters and interesting storylines. My posting priority has been Static Shock, but I might end up posting more The Librarians content over the summer. Side note: I’ve learned that ER actor Eriq La Salle directed an episode of The Librarians so that’ll be fun when I reach season 4.

There’s been quite a bit of overlap between Leverage, The Librarians, and Star Trek so far, with more on the way. I know Jeri Ryan is about to be a reoccurring character on Leverage, for example. There’s also some XWP overlap, which would be surprising given that XWP was filmed on the other side of the Pacific except I’ve already seen overlap between Disney-era Power Rangers & Stargate.

On the other hand, I’m not really into ST TNG despite being at the start of the third season. I guess I’m primarily a ST DS9 fan. I don’t know why the show isn’t clicking for me, but it isn’t. Maybe it’s just that I’m more into the other 3 shows and I don’t have the bandwidth for a fourth? I feel bad because I know it’s an important show to a lot of people but it’s looking like I’m not going to be one of them at this point. It’s extra frustrating because I do like the characters but the show as a whole just isn’t gelling for me and I don’t understand why.

With its upcoming 20th anniversary, I’ll probably schedule a daily SGA post throughout July. I might similarly get Power Rangers off my back burner for August. Part of me does want to check out the newer seasons, but my to-watch pile is massive enough without adding them. Especially since the end of August will see the return of The Rings of Power.

I think I need to do these posts more regularly, otherwise they end up sprawling like this. This spring has been a Lot, though. Hopefully everyone’s summer will be calmer.

I will continue to forever sing the praises of Stargate being really good about giving their ladies agency.

But it’s suddenly very clear to me that they’re not nearly as good with their POC

#personal;#jay watches sga;#in SGA Ford's a major character for one (1) season #then he becomes a drug addict you rarely see #the only non-white passing recurring characters after that are aliens #and as much as a fucking LOVE Teyla and Ronan #Ronan espcially isn't the BEST rep as a man who had been on the run so long #that he defaults mostly to violence and such #Grodon was a minor character that died end of season 1 as a martyr to McKay #like. we got Zalenka who's Czech and like.....I think the rest of the earth Main Cast is American or Canadian #and White #Still love the show! but seeing issues now that I'm paying attention which is interesting #if they ever reboot Stargate like they keep considering I wonder if they'll be better about their races #bc iirc there AREN'T even major recurring asian character in SG1 OR SGA #tho there's that one IOA lady in SGU but I never remember her name bc she's so minor in the other two and I didn't watch SGU #God I'd love a reboot that's just as fair to BIPOC as they've always been to ladies #and!!! give me canon queer or give me death

It's funny how I can rewatch a show I know well and already rewatched and somehow there are still some episodes which I've never seen in my life. How's that possible???

#jay watches stargate Atlantis #i've never seen the episode carson dies in #and i don't think i'm ready for it #somehow i've also never seen the second episode michael is in??? no idea how #sga #stargate #stargate atlantis

88 Tray’s 2018 Mock Draft 1-18.

Phoenix Suns

DeAndre Ayton

Sacramento Kings

Marvin Bagley

Atlanta Hawks

Luka Doncic

if not... Trae Young might be there guy so look for them to trade down to collect additional assets, while looking to get rid of unhappy Dennis Schroder.

Memphis Grizzlies

Wendell Carter Jr

if not... Look for Memphis to trade down to try to get rid of Chandler Parsons terrible contract.

Dallas Mavericks

Jaren Jackson Jr

if not... look for the Mavs to gamble big on Michael Porter Jr. Bamba could be a fit here, but after the failed Nerlens Noel experiment I think the Mavs bet on a player with a higher floor than Mohammed.

Orlando Magic

Trae Young

if not... It has to be either Sexton or SGA because nobody wants to watch a team being ran by DJ Augustin or Shelvin Mic in the year 2018 or 2010 for what that matter.

Chicago Bulls

Mohammed Bamba

if not... the Bulls need to either hope that one of the aforementioned bigs drop to them. Taking a risk on MPJ who is a similar player to the injury plagued LaVine they just traded for wouldn’t be smart.

Cleveland Cavaliers

Colin Sexton

if not... take MPJ and pray his back holds up. Period.

New York Knicks

Kevin Knox

if not... look for a scoring guard like Lonnie Walker or Sexton who can penetrate the lanes, something last year lottery pick Ntilikina struggled with.

Philadelphia 76ers

Mikal Bridges

if not... trade the pick along with Fultz and either Covington or Saric for Kawhi. If Porter Jr is still available he will be awfully tempting, however the process has dealt with enough injury plagued seasons. Now it’s all about action.

Charlotte Hornets

Shai Gilgeous Alexander

if not...

LA Clippers via Detroit

Michael Porter Jr

if not... Look for a more NBA ready player such as Miles Bridges or hope that one of the top 3 point guards are still available here for the taken.

LA Clippers

Jerome Robinson

if not... Robert Williams jumps off the floor like DeAndre, blocks shots like DJ (used to) and also went to school as.. you get where I’m going.

Denver Nuggets

Miles Bridges

if not... Will Barton might be gone once free agency starts so finding a scoring replacement like Lonnie Walker or taking a flier on a elite athlete like Zhaire Smith makes sense here.

Washington Wizards

Robert Williams

if not... there shouldn’t be a if not if Williams is here. Marcin Gortat has thrown shots at the Wizards best player and doesn’t fit the speed this team needs to be playing at.

Phoenix Suns

Aaron Holiday

Why?

Tyler Ulis started games for this team last season. Enough said.

Milwaukee Bucks

Lonnie Walker

Why? Plays above the rim and off the ball, two things necessary when playing with a star like the Greek Freak.

San Antonio Spurs

Donte Divencenzo

Why? He does everything right and would thrive playing for another terrific coach system just like he did playing under Jay Wright at Villanova.

ANYWAY RIGHT BLOG

I really hate that it feels like the McKay/Keller romance feels like a response to McKay only really being shipped with guys by the fandom. She had the really cute potential for Ronan but they scrapped that for McKay for no reason with no chemistry. They did it well, they both feel like they remained the same character and they weren’t necessarily toxic for each other but like. She’d have been better with Ronan.

#Jay watches SGA;#personal;#SGA is one of few shows/fandoms/etc where I still ship the big name M/M #I LIKE the McKay/Sheppard dynamic as the fans write it #I like how their personalities mesh #and don't get me wrong #I'm not upset about it bc ''they're breaking up my ship :ccc'' but because it came from nowhere #and had retconning of her chemistry with Ronan that's never addressed #like #l i k e #at least write it right

Anyway, on the topic of essays, I could write an entire essay on McKay but I won’t bc I remember how defensive the SGA fandom was of him last I saw and I’m not inviting that shit in my life

#personal;#Jay watches SGA;#The only real outright problematic/abusive behavior you see Sheppard display towards him #1) he doesn't do for all he advises it to Mitchell #2) is ONLY SHOWN in SG1 where McKay's still the butt of jokes and not seen as as developed as he is in SGA #I don't really count the cross over episodes as canon for the crossover universe #SGA eps in SG1 are SG1 canon not SGA and vice versa #Don't get me wrong; I love and relate to him just as much if not more than I do Sheppard #but he is a deeply flawed individual and needs constant reminders that he's NOT infallible despite managing many impossible things
