Okay, so maybe I'm a freak for being into shows as intensely as I am (though I think that goes for most of the folks in fandom and scifi fans are particularly notorious, so what the hell), but why, oh why! don't the people who are actually in charge of canon seem to have an continuinity fairy!
Do they honestly not know every little freckle on their babies body! (no wait, that came out kind of squick...)
Or do the writers actually believe that we just won't notice when they slay canon to get to the convenient Deus Ex Machina!?!?!
PERSONAL SHIELDS ARE PERSONALIZED!!!! AARGH! (this rant was brought to you by Stargate Atlantis. Just... give me an hour to calm down and acknowledge that the writers don't have months to work on a single story)
