Coincidentally it's one right before that episode which bugs me. In "Up in the Air" (4x14) the physics don't add up when Carter and everything else is falling back to Earth. Seems like maybe they could've tweaked it a bit to make it work better. I love the episode, though, because of how they were able to incorporate similar visuals from the opening credits into this episode's storyline. I had always wanted them to do that since the first time I saw that opening.

This show has always been a dramedy to me so most of the time I try not to pay too much attention to realism, but there are things that are difficult to overlook at times. Pretty much every episode, in the back of my mind I'm thinking, "If only these brilliant people had a database in which they could enter their current project/experiment/components and find out if an existing/future project would negatively interact with the ones they want to start working on." There would still be problems with that, too, but potentially it could keep accidents from happening as often.


Mag, Darling, you're being a bore.

Well, that part was totally realistic though. Its uncontrolled creavitiy all over the place.

This is your second post about how much you hate the show. Maybe you just shouldn't watch it. People don't love the show for the believableness of it, they watch it because the writing, actors, and general thought of a society such as this just makes them feel good. Next you will be complaining about the Christmas episode where they all become cartoon characters.

I didnt stated anywhere I would hate the show and besides, if I would hate the show, I wouldnt comment on it.
