Season 5
I was a bit slow to catch up to season 5 of Atlantis. I must have forgotten all about it with the writers' strike last year, adding to that, a very early start to the season way back in July of '08.
Now well into the season, we haven't seen any jaw-dropping plot twists, or exceptionally good writing for that matter, but that's not the kind of show SGA is. It's not high-minded and preachy like Star Trek, or edgy and sexy like Battlestar Galactica. Atlantis is just good, goofy fun. And there's nothing wrong with that at Laidback Geek.

I was cautiously optimistic about TSCC all through the first season. It seemed like the underdog premiere of the year that got a big smack in the gut with the writers' strike.

The first Bleach movie was released in 2006 (in Japan) between the 5th and 6th seasons of the series.
Like many TV Anime movie spin-offs, it doesn't do much to progress the main story arc. This may have been wise since the direction of the series is fairly muddy at this point.
Setting the Stage
The prologue opens in Soul Society, in a tense, Evangelion-like command center. A cataclysmic event is unfolding, threatening to collapse Soul Society and the "Real World" into one.
What's LBG?
We like geeky stuff like video games, gadgets, manga and Sci-fi TV shows, but who’s got the time or money to keep up with the latest and greatest?
