I'm so glad this show is ending...

Feb 21, 2007 10:48

Call me a heretic if you want, but it's how I really feel and I'm not going to sugarcoat it any longer. I don't care if people tell me "Ha, you're not a TRUE fan!" If being saddened that my favorite show has gone down the tubes makes me not a "true" fan, then so be it. The latest episode that aired in the UK yesterday... I haven't seen it yet ( Read more... )

I asked JM a post in his blog too (about the ratings - that was me - he unscreened it but didn't answer it).

It seems to me TPTB are just sinking BOTH shows. Fans are mad and want nothing to do with the show anymore. That means ratings will tank and the show will get cancelled. Way to go!! At least we know who to blame, right?

Yeah, I was surprised that he unscreened my comment too but he didn't answer it either.

I guess it is some consolation that we know who to blame...and that we can still watch the old episodes from when the shows were actually GOOD. It's a shame they're so clueless and can't see what they're doing to SG-1 and Atlantis.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm a D/V shipper but also like Daniel/Sam (as you know). I don't see it the way you do but I'm sorry you are not enjoying the show anymore.=(

I'm sorry if I offended you or anything. :( I didn't mean to - I just wasn't feeling too well and was in a ranting mood. *sheepish* The lack of Daniel/Sam interaction is just something that's been bugging me since the season first started and I guess it sorta makes me think that they aren't friends anymore. I guess I shouldn't let it bother me so much...

again I'm sorry if I offended you, maeve :(

You did not offend me. Quit appologizing for having an opinion. I was trying to sympathize without sharing your feelings.

I can kind of see your point about lack of interaction but I still believe that they are friends. (Of course I have to wait til April to see the back half of season 10.)

Sorry you're not feeling well.

I finally finished my Sam/Dan story and my beta has it so it should be up before the weekend. 23,000+ words of Sam/Dan goodness I hope will make you feel better.=)

Oh good, I'm glad. I guess I worry too much about offending people...I was just worried that anything I said about D/V would've offended you. If it didn't, I'm glad.

Thanks. I've been watching the newer eps on youtube actually... I guess what has me down is that it's hard for me to believe their still friends if I don't see them acting much like friends. It's like I need proof or something and I don't seem to be getting it. I guess I need to stop over-obsessing about it though...

Aww thanks I appreciate that. :) I look forward to reading it.

I was bored and skimming through Stargate LJs when I came across yours. I pretty much read about Daniel with a lot of people in fanfic (Sam, Jack, Teal'c, Paul Davis, and Mitchell) but the one person I can't seem to no matter what is Vala. I just don't like them together because I don't like the way Daniel acts around her and Vala many times gets on my nerves though there are moments that I don't mind her as much, usually when they allow her to chill out and I did enjoy her scenes with Tomin or whatever his name is. Plus as you've said, TPTB can't seem to balance the team interactions. I cringe at the possibility that they may end up as a romantic couple in canon (just as I cringe at the idea of Jack and Sam together romantically ( ... )

So like in Talion, I think they separated it as civilian/alien(Daniel & Vala) and military(Sam & Mitchell) on purpose. It was probably one of the better episodes though because we really got to see a lot of their concern over Teal'c and while they did pair off and give a moment of talking between each pairing, the majority of it was the team working together to get Teal'c back on track (and then of course showing what Teal'c was up to w/o the team ( ... )

Hey, thanks for posting those comments. :) No problem about rambling, I agree with pretty much everything you said. Even though I know how much MS loves acting with CB, I agree that it's not so much the actors who don't want to interact with each other (in this case, MS and AT), but it's TPTB. I didn't know that someone had said that to MS at the Burbank convention, but I'm glad that they did, and I'm glad that he wouldn't have minded showing more of the bond between Daniel, Sam and Teal'c. I think what we have here is a little group of writers who love writing the Daniel/Vala dynamic every chance they get and they tend to forget a lot about everyone else. They do tend to overdo it ( ... )
