Puddlejumpers!

Let's talk puddlejumpers. I confess, I geek out over those darn ziti shaped spaceships, and oh - the things they can do. Not to mention how they light up for John.

Atlantis would not have been the same without them. *shudders at the thought*







I don't know what those read-outs say but it makes my little heart happy just to see it :)

That's an awesome screencap to use here! Because you're right; the jumpers were *magic* when they lit up like that. :-)

I don't think we've explored the jumpers nearly enough. They had to have been decked out like the mini-RV's they resemble. Come on, where's the head? And the pop-out screened porch? :-)

What I like best about them is the subtle sense of 'team' they gave to each mission with the seating of the crew in such a fashion that they could hold a conversation while traveling to their destination. (I know the cast wasn't too keen on jumper scenes, but I loved them!)

I think too, Atlantis *had* to have had more maneuverable fighters in order to combat Wraith attacks and we just haven't found them yet. *runs off to look*

the subtle sense of 'team' they gave to each mission ...

Yes! Exactly this. You couldn't miss the looks and eyerolls they gave each other. Hmm, bet some of the conversations on those long trips got pretty interesting.

That would make an awesome series, wouldn't it? "Scenes from a PuddleJumper" :-)
