Thanks.

Given her limited role on the show, this doesn't seem like much of a loss. Still, I do enjoy her character and wished they would have made her character a bit more prominent. Oh well.

Wonder who will head Atlantis now?

Wonder if they will somehow bring back Weir?

My guess is that Caldwell will take over.

Woolsey? Great, now we'll have story line after story line about a bureaucrat running Atlantis, second guessing the more experienced personnel, and then he'll "grow" into the position and gain their respect.

(Guess I don't need the spoiler tags any more)

I dont know that many people are thrilled. Unless they change his character a lot who wants to watch him every week?

Thanks to Patrick Sun for splitting our thread, no need for spoiler tags in here now.

Re: Stargate: Atlantis Season 5 discussion (spoilers)

This will certainly make things interesting.

Isn't it a little early for a Season 5 discussion thread, though? Considering season 4 is still going and season 5 hasn't even entered production?

It is early yes, but since the cast had a major change it was only fair to those who don't like things spoiled to stop talking about it in that thread.

Also, this was announced today.

GateWorld - Jewel Staite a main cast member in Season Five

Not really a big thing, if at all really.

I hate watching television what with all the commercials, pop-ups, blurbs, etc so I always wait for the eventual DVD release of my favorite shows. Stargate Atlantis is no exception; anyway I'm sorry this show ended its run. It was a good five years; great stories, special effects. My only complaint is the guy who played Ronon always looked so bored; kind of like he didn't want to be there at all. And that whiny David Hewlett, he got annoying really fast. I didn't like the way he always talked down to people. I also had a problem with the fact that he's primarily an egghead scientist - what's he doing kicking ass and shooting automatic weapons? Everybody received hand-to-hand combat training when they joined the Expedition, including doctors and scientists?I had the same problem seeing Daniel Jackson kick ass on Stargate SG-1. Who would've thought that bumbling geek giving a lecture on Egyptian hieroglyphics in the 1994 film would turn out to be an ass-kicking combat veteran? Bring on the inevitable Atlantis movies!
