Review. Potential Spoilers.
Oct. 29th, 2010 12:26 pmI finished the last few seasons of SGA. Overall:
Season 1: Adorable, I loved the season. And since I'd been in the fandom for a while when I saw it I knew where most of the episodes were going. It was interesting and kind of fun watching things spoiled. I liked it. There was some bad acting and incredibly stupid wtf decision making, but I didn't go into this expecting The World's Greatest Show (TM) it didn't bother me too much. Plus, it gave me something to ponder what the writers could have done differently. And then I wondered for a while why I cared so much. :P
Season 2: Season 2 brought the squee factor way down, although there were some good episodes. One of the good parts is the introduction of Ronon, who is badass. But geeky, loyal Ford left the show and that was sad. :(
Season 3: Season 3 wasn't much better.
Season 4: This was where the show got interesting again. I love season four almost as much as I love season one. It's really the slashiest season, as well. Elizabeth Weir is replaced as leader by Sam Cater, who is far too awesome for words.
Season 5: Most people in fandom pretend season 5 doesn't exist because it introduces a love interest for Rodney and this breaks up John/Rodney, which pretty much everyone in the fandom ships. There's a lot of Jennifer Keller hate out there, which is really sad, because she is awesome. I just can't bring myself to hate any of the main characters. They're all so adorable and silly. :) Sam Carter is replaced as leader by Richard Woolsey. I missed her, but Woolsey turned out to be an okay character, so all was good. ;)
