I personally feel that the focus of TPTB on the Mckay-Mckeller aspects of the show ruined SGA. We lost team moments, character developmets, and interesting storylines. When all of the eps seemed to HAVE to focus on Mckay (how many times did we see "OMG mckay is dying"?) or Mckeller, it showed a lack of desire to write for other characters. By the end of season five I stopped caring about the show, simple as that.
Three examples of ep changes that would have been good:
The seed would have been interesting with Teyla as the victim...after all she had wraith DNA. Would it have been easier to have her turn into a hive ship? then they let the whole "grow a hive ship" idea disappear.
The lost tribe-- WHY was mckay there? Daniel was the "ancient" expert and he knew the asgard. If they needed an SGA character, why not Lorne or Sheppard...either one for protection; or Radek? Nope it HAD to be mckay!
The Shrine - Ok any other member of the team could ahve filled the mckay role...after all mckay has done this show several times before!
How would you rewrite other eps?
