I can appreciate the point about people whose character is still in and how patronising it can be to be told to suck it up and stay loyal - though I confess, I'd still give SGA a chance if Joe left - a lot of people don't seem to be giving it the chance of even a couple of episodes without wailing about the injustice of this or that change. To be honest, my patience is starting to expire with certain areas of fandom - if x person leaving is so devastating to your enjoyment of the show, use the off-switch and stop watching. If it is hampering your enjoyment of fandom, it's time to find a new hobby. I've decided and told some of my f-list bluntly that I have no interest in the moanings of people not watching the show once the new season starts. You aren't willing to give the show a shot, then you lose your right to complain about the episodes based on read about them from everyone else as far as I'm concerned.
S4 is going to be different and no doubt. No, I don't like all the changes, however I think it's all about having an open mind.
