"Welcome to every man's worst nightmare."

Saw "School Reunion".

...

wow.

Now that's fan service.

He does pick strong women, indeed, and two strong women circling each other and trying to figure out their positions was interesting... it was inevitable that they would eventually figure out how much they had in common, but good heavens, if he had to deal with both of them at once all the time he'd end up getting torn into little bits. In the best way possible.

As a viewer: it was a pretty good episode, about on par with the rest of the recent ones.
As a longtime fan: it was one of the best episodes I've ever seen.

So much that had been left unspoken, unsaid, finally brought into the light of day. A sense of full-circle and closure that both of them needed. And seeing old friends that no one who didn't grow up always on the verge of hearing that sound could ever know so well.

I was worried about this one when I heard about it. I was mildly let down by the two other episodes of the season. All reservations have been wiped away -- I'm ready to take off again on that wild, wild ride. :)

Sara Jane was my first companion, others have been smarter, sexier, and braver, but SJ always remained #1 in my heart.

I admit to choking up on some scenes and was definitly moved when she admited to waiting for him to come back.

And I must admit, a mature SJ is back in the running for sexiest.

Oh, the look in his eyes when she asked him what she had done wrong, that he never came back.

Sometimes it's easier to leave the past behind.
