Some random thoughts on Stargate: Atlantis, episode 1x17 "Letter from Pegasus":
I like Kavanaugh. I really, really do. And just FYI, Ford, he wasn't "whining", but simply addressing relevant concerns of his. As is his right as a member of the Atlantis team and a national of a supposedly "free" country with freedom of speech. This whole "let's-demonize-Kavanaugh-and-suspect-him-of-any-selfserving-thoughts-under-the-sun" thing really has to stop. Just because a dumbass calls him self-centered and pompous doesn't automatically make him so. Ford is dumb as a post and that pisses me off, but then, he's in good company, isn't he, Bates?
Sheppard wouldn't recognize empathy if it came and bit him on the ass, and Rodney keeps reverting to (old) type. So not convincing. Besides, why bring up his still "burning torch" for Sam Carter when he's so obiviously smitten with a not-blond? Argh. On the other hand, Elizabeth and her primary concern for the surviving relatives of her people reminded me once again why I liked the character. Go, girl.

And those tears in her eyes? Gah. On the other hand, Sheppard was not very capable in the "explaining-military-things-to-Teyla" department, and let himself be blackmailed. Idiot.
And well, considering they all think/pretend for plot reasons that they're going to die in two weeks, because the Wraith are coming... what's the point of "saving" them anyway? *g*
Well, there's still the stargate. I'd be all for blowing up Atlantis to prevent it falling into Wraith hands, and joining some allies on another world far from the path of destruction the Wraith armada is carving through the galaxy.
Oh, wait. They don't have any allies. Duh.
;-P
As I said: He should have just left her there.
Preferrably after he's pushed out Ford first. *eg*
