It was a great, action-filled episode!

I loved:
- the space battle between the tribe and the Travelers!
- Teyla in charge!
- Sheppard protected Zelenka! Aww...
- Katana was hot!
- Sheppard asked about Larrin talking about him XD
- The revelation of the lost tribe's identity! Wow!

And now the not so good things:
- Keller. I'm sorry but I do find that she's becoming blander and blander as the show slowly reaches its conclusion. Her only purpose now is Rodney's love interest. And getting kidnapped of course.
- I would have also preferred more scenes with Teyla. Why do we get less and less of Teyla and more and more of Keller? Because Teyla is a mom and settled with a baby so Jennifer is now the "hot chick"?

So yeah, a great episode but if they dropped the whole romance angle, it would have been excellent :(

Keller. I'm sorry but I do find that she's becoming blander and blander as the show slowly reaches its conclusion.

And why do they need to punish us with a Keller/Rodney/Ronon love triangle? This is the kind of faulty backwards thinking producers/writers often do, it's either "if not one but TWO of well-liked characters will go for her, everybody must see how awesome she is", or it's "she is even better than our well-liked established characters, isn't she awesome?"

A resounding NO to both.

According to Joe Mallozzi, we just don't get it and love to hate on her. She's now a regular and she's therefor entitled to have character development and her own episodes. And because no SG series has had a real, developed relationship yet, they decided to show a real relationship development on Keller/Rodney.

Ugh, no. Just, no. And it really pisses me off that so far, we saw more of Keller in the various episodes than of Teyla.

You know, I'm slowly but surely getting less and less excited about any TV shows at all *sigh*

The age-old "Buhä, noone loves the new toy, I'll show you" approach. Because when has that ever failed? /sarcasm

Maybe the guy could just accept that fans simply don't take to every character and guaranteed less so if they get them stuffed into their throats on top of it. He can't force anybody to love her and if he writers 50 episodes all about her.

Oh yes, he did say that because fans didn't like her, they wrote more about her to *make* them like her. If fans were fond of her, they would have concentrated more on, for example, Sheppard. Mallozzi's own words.
