Cont., because I'm being mouthy
Oh god, that's me all the time. :P

We're supposed to accept that everyone on Atlantis has not only accepted both Carter and Keller, but they're all just bestest buds.
And you know, logically I can see it. If you're sitting in the mess and they just happen to wander in, well, I think the team is friendly enough to invite them to join no matter who it is. But the fact that they put it on the screen? Well that makes it more.

so they didn't have to deal with Sam maybe having issues over "losing" command and being 2IC again.
OMG, don't even get me started on my Sam as 2IC rant/Mitchell rant.

"cut and paste" instead of a scene written for Carter.
I'm not altogether sure how I feel about the cut and paste thing. On the one hand, I don't really want Carter to have a huge part of the show, and it would make me bitter if she did, when they never gave Elizabeth that chance, on the other hand, it just feels weird to have Carter be Elizabeth with a different face.

They'd probably use the excuse that a military leader was now necessary due to so many attacks or something along those lines.

I'm really kind of interested to see how they manage to work the whole thing in. Because at the end of Lifeline, Sam says she's not going to be sticking around.

You might be interested in this article.
Cool I'll check it out.

TPTB seem convinced all the people with a negative opinion are Weir fans, Sam haters, or shippers/slashers upset over a disruption in their OTPs. But this article is written by a man (and we all know only male opinions count, right?), and he expresses some of the same concerns as the rest of us.
God, I hate how the writers seem to think it's only guys that watch the show. How they think that adding more pretty women to the cast will automatically make the ratings be better. Here's an idea, *do* something with the pretty women you already have!

Also? Shippers can be pretty powerful people, since they have a lot invested in a show and can do a lot to either make or break a show. Don't piss them off. Joe M. has learned to respect the Save Carson fans, why can't he give the Weir fans the same?
