Yeah, Skiffy's 'shiny new toy' to push SG1 fans to watch SGA, but I wish they'd remember the fans who have watched SGA since day one. Sigh.
Oh, they forgot all about the original fans the day they wrote off Weir and Carson and brought in Tapping. We now know where we stand.
You know, I wonder how Tapping's presence in the new PR shots will influence many of my favorite SGA communities. All of them have such lovely banners with Weir- no sign of Tapping (a fact that I love). Will many of the communities make a change?
Heck, if there's even ONE icon of Tapping with the SGA group (notice how I don't consider her part of the group), I won't take it. Won't use it. Won't want it. Don't want her on the show.
Tapping is just a sign that the original fans mean nothing to the producers.
Huh, yea, and I noticed how 'miss can do no wrong, miss perfect Carter/Tapping' has her name above Flanigans in the list of cast members.
They're making a big deal on all the advert's about Tapping's coming to SGA so it really doesn't surprise me that she's at the top of the list.
And if SGA has better success this year than any other previous year? Tapping will proceed from miss 'can do no wrong' to god-like status.
It's a mixed bag of feelings over this. I almost, I repeat almost hope the show fails even with her there. Then again, I love Flanigan and well... it's such a mixed bag of feelings over this coming season.
You know, if they'd gotten rid of Weir and brought in some unknown, I'd've accepted that better. Some Russian or Chinese scientist, or something. Play up the diversity of the supposed IOA ownership of this expidition.
Anyway.. *shrug* The emotions war; excitement over next week vs desire for it to all go horridly worse for the stupid decisions being made this season.
