Haha so this is why Daniel is missing through most of episode 3.22 Nemesis? Interesting.. 😏

The thing about Carson’s death that bugs me the most is his whole thing was “I’m not just going to let that innocent man die” but like…at least one other person died because of what he did. Because if that explosion got him, it absolutely got the bomb tech guy. And I can’t remember if there was only one but it feels like there would be at least two or someone waiting around the corner or something. Anyway by trying to do the right thing and save a life he at the very least doubled what the death count would have been.
#stargate#stargate atlantis#sga#carson beckett#‘I wasn’t going to let an innocent man die so instead at least two innocent men died!’#those salty asks made me extremely salty about this again 😂#just very disrespectful to my do no harm man#couldn’t just kill him had to have him take someone else out too :/

Salty Ask List - 13 and 17 :)
13. Unpopular opinion about XXX character?
Daniel - I really don't think he's that OOC in season 9-10. I hear this complaint all the time but I feel like it was a natural progression over the seasons. I also prefer early seasons Daniel but I don't think he gets that out of character in the later seasons. You know when he was OOC? RIGHT AFTER FOREVER IN A DAY! That's not an unpopular opinion but I will never get over that.
Rodney - I don't know if this is an unpopular opinion and I feel like it's going to come off the wrong way but truly he is not as misogynistic as a lot of people like to claim he is. I always see people claim how horrible and disgusting he is and that they couldn't watch Atlantis specifically because of him and I guess I just have to assume they've never watched another show from 2005 before? Because while it definitely isn't great or something to be condoned...there was way way worse during that time. And also he grows so much so I'm guessing they're just watching like half of season 1 and giving up. Again, not sure how unpopular this is but it's something I see way more often than I expected to and it bugs me a lot.
Teal'c - In my opinion, Teal'c was so underutilized. Especially being, as far as we're shown, the only alien employed by the SGC(other than Jonas for a bit of course). But too often it felt like he was there to be the straight man and punch and shoot when it was called for. I would have loved to see more character development and also what sorts of things he got into on Earth. Because that man is getting paid(hopefully) but he's living on base with no rent and his money isn't good on his home world. So what's he doing with all that cash? Personally, I think he buys all the things on those late night infomercials. But I just would've liked to see more personality from him. Also, I just cannot be bothered to care about his family. They feel like such an afterthought(a lot like Sha're). I would've either liked to see more of them or just have that plot cut all together.
I'm realizing I don't know how unpopular any of these actually are but I don't think I have a lot of really controversial opinions haha.
17. Instead of XYZ happening, I would have made ABC happen…
You've opened a can of worms with this lmao! We all know I wouldn't have had Carson die. There are so many other things they could've done instead. I think if they still wanted a shock factor they could've given him a major injury/permanent disability. Losing hearing or sight or a limb and the impact it would've had on him and the team would have been way more interesting than just killing Carson off.
I also saw once where someone was talking about how they should've had Jonas go on the Atlantis expedition and I whole-heartedly agree. His antics would've fit in so well with the Atlantis crew and it almost feels disrespectful that he was main cast for an entire season and then just cast aside other than one episode in season 7(although I'm fairly certain this was due to the actor and not the writers just writing him off but this is ideal Stargate where everyone is pleasant and easy to work with 😂)
Last, I don't know what I would've done differently but I wish they would've kept Ford around. He and Ronon would've been such a good duo and I think we really missed out.
WAIT I FORGOT HOW HEATED I GET ABOUT ELIZABETH! Okay sorry one more because the shit they pulled with Elizabeth actually makes me so mad. First, I don't know if anyone else has noticed but the s4 credits immediately introduce Sam as being main cast with Elizabeth nowhere in sight which spoils the whole thing and also feels extra disrespectful. They didn't change the s2 ones for an episode or two until Ford was gone. But second, there was no reason to do what they did. Just like Carson, I think character death(or I guess in both cases "death") was the least interesting route. I think major injury would've been so interesting in this case as well. Sam steps in as interim leader while Elizabeth gets back on her feet. Watching the pain and frustration as someone who was always in control can't even get their body to obey them. That would've been interesting to watch. And then eventually Elizabeth is able to step back into the leadership position, maybe solely or maybe she and Sam are co-leaders because we needed more women in the Stargate universe. Oh what we could have had...
There are like a million other things I would've done differently but I'll be done for now before this post gets ridiculously long haha

Hey!
Love your blog, especially your opinions on Daniel and Carson. I’d protect Carson with my soul if I could, despite the war crimes ;)
Salty asks 26 and 27? Most and least shippable characters :))))
I hope you’re having a good day:)
Aww thank you so much!! And honestly, he deserves to be protected(even if he committed heinous crimes 😂). I hope you're having a good day too! :)
26. Most shippable character?
Probably either Carson or Lorne. I think they're both just so sweet and sassy they work with pretty much anyone for me.
27. Least shippable character?
It's gotta be Caldwell and Woolsey. I was so surprised by how much fanfic there is shipping them with any combination of folks. Personally, I can't stand Caldwell and I just can't picture Woolsey with any of the crew. Also any of the Wraith, just does not work for me.

2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?
Teyla and John. It's just one that really doesn't work for me personally but I can get where people are coming from.

I finished watching SG-1 this month and boy, I really haven't enjoyed a piece of media this much in a very long time.
I don't know any fans IRL (so naturally, decided to indulge by setting up a little blog for a while instead)
If any SG-1 fans are reading this - hello!
#heya!#if you haven’t given Atlantis a shot highly highly recommend!#happy to have you here 😊#stargate sg1#stargate#sg1

John Sheppard. Reads War and Peace in what minuscule spare time he has. Likes the Antarctic. Took the mensa test. Is actually brilliant but he's so casual even when he's using that brilliance to devise a plan to save the day. Is incredibly gay and even more incredibly a dumbass. Has gone on more suicide missions than maybe anyone in the history of the universe. Free climbed Atlantis once. Survived being turned into a bug. Truly guy of all time
#stargate#stargate atlantis#sga#don't forget he's weirdly into ferris wheels#i love him i love him i love him#he's such a little freak i adore it
