but marty stu's don't join in a 'subservient' position
they is the boss and the bestest boss evah!!!
so bestest, in fact, that all the nice experienced heros wonder how they ever got along without the Marty Stu
I feel for mitch, i really do. in different hands, cameron could have been a great addition to the show

from GW Prototype summary:
Meanwhile, Colonel Mitchell, Teal'c and Dr. Jackson investigate a hidden laboratory beneath the surface. Appearing decidedly Ancient in technology, they find a genetic manipulation device and a young man sustained in an Ancient stasis unit. Witnessing Daniel tamper with the gene manipulator, Mitchell presses a button on the chamber, which thaws and releases the man. Almost immediately he begins to convulse.
Maybe if they had Cam back into the button by accident, but pushing the button was just dumb. I feel sorry for BB, I am sure this wasn't what he imagined his character to be.Odo's last wishes: cremate me, put me in my bucket, then shoot me through the wormhole.

have a plot hole? just mess up a character to make it work
He wasn't too bad in the rest of the episode though, as I recall...

I liked that the SG teams were always portrayed as top notch officers & enlisted personnel. Makepeace may have gone rogue, but you couldn't argue his competence. Jack was a smart *** but he was also highly skilled. You always knew O'Neill took the situation seriously even as he used humor.
Mitchell just came off to me as just being flip.

We see it with Mitchell and Vala. Mitchell was the marty stue for season 9 and Vala became the mary sue lead in 10. Even though Vala wasn't officially leading the team...she lead more of it than anyone else..in season 10.Grammar, Logic, Rhetoric.

Especially with a male character. Most marty/mary stu/sue do put thier character as the lead. But Males become the leads faster imo.

Sam was not only wallpapered by Vaniel but also her IQ dropped phenomenally!
Vala was turned into the new, fun and hip "sam" IMO *gag*
What truly amazes me is how many of my tiny group of fanfic readers love her character. In order to write for Vala, I had to change the character into into someone else in order for me to stomach writing it.
Very few of my group know that "Vala" that I write is actually an OC, that I wrote before with just a name change and different hair color. lol. I get reviews such as "That is so Vala." and the thing is...it's not! I'm having my "Vala" do the exact same things my OC did which TV Vala would never do and they can't tell. MY OC Vala actually falls back on Sam for the science. Avoids fighting with Daniel and actually is more along the lines a reluctant participant.
I also find that I always end up writing Jack in too. Story's not stargate without Jack.
So...
I could literally make Vala into Jack's long lost daughter and I would still be getting reviews along the lines of, "That is so Vala."
Which shows what a well rounded character she is...or lack of solid development.Grammar, Logic, Rhetoric.
