Generally speaking, I think the writing so far in season nine has been pretty bad.
This ep was among the better ones, but unfortunately that doesn't mean it was actually any good. The basic idea is entertaining (to the point where I have had a half-written fic lying around for ages with exactly the same premise), but their execution of it was a sad mixture of technobabble and self-indulgence. I found only two scenes at all memorable: the room full of Carters (would it be insane to try to write Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Sam/Janet fic?), and Janet's goodbye to Sam (which I find impossible to intepret in any other way than "Cassie's getting a little sister"). Oh, and Kvasir. Kvasir rocked.
You know it's a crap episode when the two best performances by far are done by a character they wrote out of the show two years ago and a CGI alien.
