Dear SGA Fandom,
I understand that there have been a lot of cast changes occurring in our show. Some of us like them, some of us don't. Please, please, please *stop* trying to sit on the fence though and say "I don't see why we can't have character X *and* character Y" or "We can bring the old character back and keep the new" or "they didn't have to get rid of that character to bring in this character". Just stop. SGA already has a huge cast of reoccurring characters and half of it's main cast is already underused. We do not have enough time in an episode or in a season to properly showcase the current cast, TPTB cannot double it and continue on as they have. By all means, feel free to do so in your fics. But don't expect it in our shows. It's not going to happen, it isn't really *possible*.

I really feel sorry for the writers. They are never, ever going to be able to please everyone, and regardless of what they do, there will always be a section of the fans who are angry about it.

I could go on for ages about what I would ideally like, but I certainly don't expect it. And overall, I think that the writers do a great job! :)

I've actually been less than please by much of this season, and can't really feel all that much pity for the writers, since they wouldn't be in this position in the first place, had they not killed loved characters off in the first place.
But still, it bugs me to see fans try and be polite or all pleasing by sitting on the fence like that.
