Well this episode will be interesting considering CBS fired George Eads and Jorga Fox! I suspect this episode storyline will change rapidly!

sounds interesting... if only the
"George Eads as Nick Stokes
Jorja Fox as Sara Sidle"
would be true...

we in the UK will probably get to see this epi in November, as the episodes come out about 6 weeks behind the US. Until then we've still got the re-run of Season 4. November can't come quick enough...

An okay epi. Wow was Chandra a cutie, but looks were deceiving, total bitch. Greg out in the field, what a laughter. Guess where he's heading back to. Nice to see French Stewart in this epi.

Great episode...like always. All the stories were really cool. Poor Greg though - this means he has to go back to the lab. And, poor Cath, she has the worst taste in men. You'd think she would know. It seemed pretty obvious that he wasn't the greatest

Good epi.. my prob is the preview showed Catherine and Warrick, in the rain being totally shocked and scared by something.. did I miss that part, or is that a future epi?

I cannot believe they did that, it will kill off the whole show,

It was not the best premiere ever. But it was good as are all.
The comments about certain things were hilarious. Really did like it, though.

Can't rate it yet, since it hasn't aired, so just ignore the ten. But I bet you it'll be a 10!!!

Again good episode, fullfilled my expectations for the Season 5 Opener. Not happy with the quick flashing sequence they started with which is why I gave it an 8. (it's a cinematographic complaint more than anything)

The third of my favorite episodes ever. So...prepare for a tirade.
*ahem* The whole 'supposed alien on the examination table' thing with David was great. I think I'd be twice as freaked out as he was. Chandra needs to get her thong out of her butt-cra
