Originally posted by Erin87 View PostOh, that would have been GREAT! I do really wish we had seen more of Laura. She had such potential as a character (Critical Mass!). But then again TPTB and potential have never seemed to see eye to eye. *cough* sparky *cough*(This is legal notice that any attempt to censor or delete, for the purpose of oppressing fair and open discussion, any statement made by me will be considered a violation of my right to free speech as guaranteed by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, and will be dealt with in accordance with federal law.)
Sparky is on screen. Therefore, it is canon. Elizabeth is still out there. And John WILL bring her home.

I think it's a shame they didn't do more with the whole Teyla/Kanaan thing in s5. I know you're a Kate/Teyla shipper, but I think Teyla/Kanaan look cute together, especially with the baby. It's such a shame tptb ignored that
But hey, that's the SG ptb for you

I'm not like some of those who can't stand their favorite ship being broken up and paired up with other people, you know.
I'm a multishipper at heart. My het OTP is Kate/John, that should tell you enough.
Teyla/Kanaan is woefully underdevelopment and could have done with a little more screentime.Heightmeyer's Lemming -- still the coolest Lemming of the forum
Proper Stargate Rewatch -- season 10 of SG-1

But let's face it, Laura never seemed to recieve as much love as say, Amelia now or especially Keller.
What baffles me is how shows like Firefly had a larger main ensemble cast yet they balanced out screentime between characters better than TPTB ever did. Except for once in awhile you never thought anyone was left out even if they had a small role in the episode.
Bah! Badwriting badwriting badwriting.

Originally posted by Scary Kitty View PostWell, in the case of Laura, as others have mentioned, the actress simply wasn't available to return (doing another series, as I recall), so I guess the character's potential never had a chance to become an issue like it probably would have if we'd seen her again.

Buffy was good with that, too. But then, Whedon knows how to write for an ensemble.

But Teyla, Ronon, even Carson -- especially Teyla -- are not getting the time they deserve.
Who really needs his screentime cut down is Rodney by a whole bunch. (Keller too, but I'm talking pre-s4 here.)

Originally posted by Reiko View PostMhm. See, John and Elizabeth I can see. They're like the "captains" of the show. Elizabeth more literally and I think it's arguable that SGA may be John's story. And even with that I can argue John needs a bit more balancing out.
SGA certainly seemed like it was supposed to be John's story. Not that we ever got to learn much about his own story.
So yeah, they did get a lot of screentime... but TPTW sure didn't give them a whole lot to do with that time.
