I had not watched the Webisodes for quite a while, so I was excited to do a rewatch and write a review. My intention was to just write a review for webisodes 1-4, because from what I could remember 5-8 were very similar to “Fata Morgana”. After my rewatch of them last night, I realized that I really needed to write a review for them. This may jump around a little bit. I couldn’t decide how I was going to organize my thoughts – but I think it is pretty much chronological.
Thought a scratched disc was going to stop me from rewatching the webisodes, but I fixed it! I was just going to give my thoughts on the Webisodes alone, but it was too hard not to keep comparing it to “Sanctuary For All” (1×1) so this is more than a review, it is more like a comparison. First, I just love how many Stargate people are in this show: Amanda Tapping, Christopher Heyerdahl, David Hewlett, Kavan Smith, Ellie Harvie, Chuck Campbell, and of course Peter DeLuise! Did I miss any? Secondly….There is no Henry! What a difference his humor makes.
I love and don’t love how they opened the Webisodes with the 1888 London scene. With it at the beginning, I think that it sets the feeling for the show – the characters, where they have come from – but I also feel like it gives a little too much away right off the bat. The aspect of the show that I love the most is that we aren’t given all the information at one time, we have to wait and figure it out. I think that in “Sanctuary For All” we are left confused, much as Will is, as to what has really happened between these two. And for some reason I like being confused.
