I love time looping episodes, even though the concept is never new the writers added just enough humor and imagination to this episode to make it my favorite of this season so far. The writing has been improved so far this season as well, I just hope the show sticks with its current cast and doesn't jump around to much more and continues on with the main story.

One of the best do far...

I am very fond of Dark Matter, as it is a jewel sci-fi series, which are not very abundant on TV. And the story is not surely the best at all times.
But this episode is doing well, especially the famous Groundhog Day loop really works well.
One word for Anthony Lemke. Sir, you made my day today. This was your top in Dark Matter, so please keep up the good work!

The time loop idea is nothing new to Sci-Fi fans but this show is a gem. Three and Android singing like French Canadians was brilliant hilarious and charming. Three wearing a toque and playing the spoons kills me, he should have been drinking a Molson. Are there any skating rinks in space?

I know there is nothing new under the sun, so when the old time loop rears its head, we know we've seen this before. Still, the characterization and the slips into surrealism make it quite a bit of fun. Three is quite the star here and it's fun when we see his sensitive side.
If you needed an episode to stop watching...

One of my many problems with Dark Matter is that it pinches so much from other shows, rewriting old plot lines that I've seen a dozen times.
This might have been the last straw for me. I'm generally okay with Groundhog Day time loop episodes, but this episode plagiarised far too much of SG1's Groundhog Day episode - but without the campy fun of RDA to keep it entertaining.
Basically, all this episode did was prove to me that 1) the show is not creative enough to deliver interesting plots, and 2) convince me that I should stop watching.
