If ignorance is bliss why aren't there more happy people?

They brought them only in last season. Featured them a few times. At the enbd, they were trying to get to Earth but were blocked.
Next they re-start the war against the Wraith. Only to be killed off after only appearing in a handful of eps in the following season.
If they kill the Asurans off totally or largely then it will prove they have no clue of what they're doing.
They done the same thing in SG-1 with the Ori. Gave them a whole season, a little bit in the following season. Then wham, the magic button gets hit & they're all gone in an instant.
So I hope this isn't a cop-out in which they get something magical at the last minute & kill them all or nearly all of them off!
But WHAT happens with the 50-100 Aurora class warships after the Asurans are gone? Will they get destoryed? I hope that Earth takes them but it probably won't happen just like the SGC didn't claim the hundreds of Replicator-modified Ha'taks after "Reckoning".
"This Mortal Coil" - "Be All My Sins Remember'd" and possibly "Spoils of War" is sounding like "Recknoning".
I was hoping that in "Spoils of War" that
Spoiler:That the team captures Asuran warships or Asuras instead of a hive ship, but we'll have to wait until the episode airs to find out for sure if capturing a hive ship is a big deal or not
Vala,

I too was hoping that they would get an Aurora from it, but had a feeling that if htey got anything from it they would get something Wraith.sigpic

It took years for SG-1 to crush those replicators. And as for dealing with the Ori that quickly, I thought the plotline revolved around the Ori and their followers not just the ascended spirits. And the plot revolving around them had to be cut down following the news it was not going to be continued as a tv show. Although I was kinda hoping the film would be longer than two episodes.

mods, if there's already a thread, please feel to combine it but the search feature said it didn't exist, and I went back several pages....
Anyhoo,

In “Spoils,” a pregnant Teyla Emmagan (Rachel Luttrell) — Pregnant? Really? I have to start paying more attention to this show — must stay behind, while Lt. Col. John Sheppard (Joe Flanigan), Dr. Rodney Mackay (David Hewlett) and Ronon Dex (Jason Momoa) explore a heretofore unknown planet crucial to the Wraith, the Atlantis team’s great, insect-like enemy. But Teyla — who possesses the Wraith gene without their hive mentality — has other ideas, and when the guys find themselves about to become a tasty repast for the Wraith Queen, Teyla uses telepathy to take her on while trying to protect her unborn child.
Without giving any more of the plot away, it’s an episode that’s all about female power — and the centrality of fertility to that power. Luttrell, a Tanzanian-born actress raised in Canada, is front and center here, and the compassionate strength she brings to Teyla really shines.
There’s also a nice sexual tension between Teyla and the genially commanding John Sheppard (center above), although I often wondered if he was smitten with Dr. Elizabeth Weir (Torri Higginson, also pictured), MIA thanks to the Replicators, the show’s robotic villains.
