For the first eight years I read complains about SG1 that I didn't shared.
Regarding SGA however, I was forced to concur with most complainers that season 4 has the biggest ammount of terribly bad, boring, pointless episodes ever. IMO! For what I've read, season 5 follows the same trend so, I don't have much hope about it.

I did enjoy seeing RSF and the the identities of the lost tribe but found the context a bit out of whack. There was little follow through with the tribe, I mean we didn't even get the leader's name.
The series has also been riddled with a few major plot holes, like where the world is Col. Caldwell?
I find Sheppard even less appealing and when tptb tried to make him "darker." It was done in such a way the character came across as unstable IMO. After 5 years we still know very little about the main character. Or is Rodney the main character now? Or Keller?
The series also lacked showing emotion in general, unless it's McKay's emotions or Keller who is all over the spectrum. No grieving period for lost comrades (not to mention means of death reduced to laughable--exploding tumors!), the city is ALWAYS saved by Rodney in the end.
Yep, I find it kind of boring. However, talking about it very interesting.Grammar, Logic, Rhetoric.

Season 5 in a nutshell..
Spoiler:Season 5 Intro
The rescue of Teyla with a surprise cameo by Ford in Sheppard's dream adding to his character the guilt of losing friends. Pretty powerful stuff.
Introduction of Richard Woolsey
as base commander. Well Weir is still my favorite but Woolsey runs circles around Carter, imo. This coming from a huge Sam Carter fan!! Woolsey has added so much more to the leadership role, he has the comic relief, the drama, and he is far from boring.
Return of Carson Beckett
Who has developed so well even for being a clone. Carson has continued his passion to help others but had grown a tad darker when he took the life from some of Michael's guards to try and save Teyla and recently killed a Wraith but took great risk in his life to try and save others.
Dynamic episodes
like "Daedalus Variations" and "The Queen" kept me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen next.
Power Character eps
that proves to me that these characters are NOT 2D and far from it. We had eps like Broken Ties, Ghost in the Machine, The Shrine, The Queen, and most recently "Outsiders" which showed how this show can be charcter driven and not only story/plot driven.
In Todd we Trust
Todd F****** Rocks! Case closed on that!
An Epic 2 part episode
Action, drama, suspense,mystery, adventure, Sci Fi,and comic relief all in the 2-part episode. Can you ask for anything more?
Also, Continuing NOT rehashing a story arc where SG-1 left off. One of my favorite races returns but in a darker tone. I am still shocked at the revelation.
This Season has continued many story arcs and has created more opportunities for future story arc. You still have Michael out there, we found out what the Wraith have been up to since the Post-Michael outbreak of the Hoffen Drug, there are rogue Asgard out in the galaxy now, who would of guessed, plus Todd is being Todd, who knows what will happen with that little alliance which has gone kinda sour. We've also seen the characters grown and have seen some classic Stargate Atlantis character moments. We have seen long time friends say good-bye once again. What will the remaining 8 episodes have to offer? We shall see.
I cannot think what anyone else could want in this show??? Character moments, Action, Comic Relief, Science Fiction themes, Adventure, Suspense, mystery, and great Special Effects? Am I missing something? No, I am not, I see it all and am loving this season.
