I used to really love Stargate

I bought all the CDs for the first five seasons. I was a happy Carter/O'Neill shipper, but not as a big deal of any kind. I mostly enjoyed it as an ensemble show and liked all the characters. Sam was enjoyable as one of the few really good female leads in any show. She wore uniform! (I get fed up of women who are only able to fight in black leather and high-heels)

Sadly, her character has become less and less interesting and is now only there when a bit of scientific gobbledegook is needed. (and the science is getting to really suck, as opposed to being just mildly poor)

It's a sad day when a Carter fan is praying for Claudia Black to return and replace her. The show actually came to life for a while when Claudia was there at the start of the season (and I'm not a particular fan of Farscape)

I think the only reason I'm still watching is to see if they finally allow Carter and O'Neill to get married. There's no reason in canon why they can't, seeing as O'Neill is no longer her commanding officer.

Please, powers that be, give me a nice wedding to keep me happy, and then give me Claudia Black to make the show enjoyable again.

(They even managed to pretty well wreck my beloved Harry Maybourne. His last episode was weak and out of character and well over a season ago in any case. I doubt he'll be back again, and if he is, I'm not sure if it will be a good thing or a bad thing...)
