 Another Exciting Season of Stargate July 14, 2008

Very exciting, fast-paced season which grabbed my attention from the start and didn't let up until the end. I can't really understand why so many people seem to be so hard on this season. I think the writers did an excellent job, propelling the Atlantis franchise forward leaps and bounds in terms of storytelling. In my humble opinion it was the best season of Atlantis so far, striking a good balance between action and character development. To some, the season may seem to be a little Rodney-centric, but my wife and I find him quite humorous and enjoyable. Highly recommended to any fan of Stargate.

I've been a huge fan of the Stargate Series since its inception & have followed this series... Atlantis, since the beginning. I am terribly disappointed in its approach to telling this story. First the writers seem intent in placing women in all of the leadership positions ... all the time, whether the situation calls for it r not, and puleeze! stop preaching the new pc crap at every lull in the fighting! Stop talking down to me, or at least advertise & warn that the show is now written for the adolescent audience. I thought the irritating Dr. Weird got killed off?! Oh yeah, btw, how is it that she being merely an arbitrator at the start gets to head-up this endeavor .. making command decisions way over her pay grade and experience. Let's not forget the irritating and most obnoxious character in all of TV land ... Rodney, Stupid, arrogant, lacking all traces of humanity, self centered, cowardly, and oh yeah.. why is he always the only one wearing a "Country Patch"? No one else does, are the Canadians so starved for recognition that they have to shove that stupid leaf in our faces all the time? BFD! Who cares? Please kill this crap or hire writers desiring to tell the story instead of searching for a platform to force feed the masses their PC garbage. Great you brought Sam Carter on the set, Great character and actress, strong capable leader... NOW LET HER LEAD!!! and get rid of that condescending, uh, I think her name is Tira, you know the alien they found living in the stone-age during the initial series, who abandoned "Her" people, and seem now for some unknown reason to be like second, or third in command, have intimate knowledge of all the earth based & ancient technology somehow! BTW, did anyone ever even suggest or offer Ronin acting lessons? Did he really spend the money on these lessons or is he here only because he's some producers love interest. Fire this bum or teach him how to act, for God's sake.
Thanx

like others have said, the first three seasons were good.
this one sucks... bigtime.
it was a waste of money to buy season 4, and i wont be watching this show anymore.
it really was that bad.
i think they were trying to appeal to a younger audience with this one.
like, 12 year olds.
they must have been running out of ideas for this season, because instead of keeping themselves distanced from sg-1, they started trying to pull closer.
the inconsistancies of this season with the previous made me sad.
anyway, i absolutely loved the first 3 seasons but...
i am so disappointed with this one, i am done watching stargate for the rest of my life.
Only for fanboys/fangirls July 12, 2008

The only people who will really appreciate Season 4 are the fanboys and fangirls out there who fanatically believe that the show can do no wrong.
Anyone who is honest with themselves will admit that Season 4 was, overall, a huge step down from the previous seasons. Even most of the good episodes this season had the potential to be far, far better.
----- Spoilers -----
The removal of two major characters, Beckett and Weir, was a huge mistake. Beckett was an absolute fan favorite and I don't think there's any SGA fan who will say that his absence and the addition of "I wonder which guy I'll be hooking up with this week" Keller was an improvement to the show.
Also, as far as Weir's removal.. the question is not whether or not replacing Weir with Carter was a good idea, because Carter was hardly even seen this season and was not utilized fully when she was. And she's already gone in Season 5! So the real question is whether or not removing Weir for *no reason* was a good idea or not, or whether replacing her with Woolsey was a good decision. The answer to either is a resounding NO.
A major part of this show, and Stargate in general.. is banter. McCay and Beckett were hilarious. Sheppard and Weir were equally charming. Likewise with Weir and McCay. Season 4 severely lacked this friendly verbal sparring.
Of course, the fanboys/fangirls will still love it just because the opening credits say "Stargate: Atlantis" and have some of the same characters. Such blind devotion is silly. People who really love Stargate can admit when an episode or season doesn't live up to expectations and needs improvement.
