I liked this episode. It's one of my favorites from the 5th season. Now, granted it's a chip show episode(so roughly 75% of the episode is clips from old shows) but it's a good story.
Over the past five years of Stargate: Atlantis history, they have made lots of mistakes....including a couple big ones. The Replicators and Michale come to mind. I thought it was great to watch the Atlantis folks just have to admit ''yea, we messed up''.
And the ending can't be beat...''once he learns how the game is played''.
I understand that a lot of people don't like clip shows. But I also understand that TV shows need to do 'bottle episodes' to save money. And at least this clip show has a story behind it, just not like they are just sitting on a sofa and saying ''oh remember that time''.
