I want SGA season 4 now, please
So I'm listening in the background to Adventures in Sci-fi's podcast of their San Diego Comicon interviews (links to main page, download available) -- which does contain S4 spoilers, I know, I'm just sort of "la la la"ing through the worst ones, but I couldn't help myself. Anyway, I got to this comment: (note: not specifically spoilerish in and of itself, but hints at general S4 content and it's with one of the new cast members, so I'm putting it under a cut)
Jewel Staite talking about doing medical stuff on the show: "I've had to do CPR countless times, and really complicated surgeries ..."
CPR? "Countless" times? *ears perk up* And surgery? What's this, then? Hurt? Comfort? *twitches* Is it September yet??
Also,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Now I wonder whether she'll do CPR right or I'll be yelling at the screen. (Stargate is actually usually remarkably good about doing first aid stuff correctly)
We can have S4 now please? (especially because maybe the wank will die down and there can be squee?)
(plus, I really want more Ronon)

I'm looking forward to the end of the wank, too. Or, perhaps I should say the end of THIS wank, because I think it's an immutable law of fandom that where there are fans, there wank shall be also! But, yeah, I was just noticing the last post at your blog, on the anti-Carter contingent ... who I'm really getting very tired of hearing from. Okay, you watch the first few episodes of the new season and you don't like how Carter interacts with the rest of the cast -- THEN complain! The glooming and dooming based on rumors, hearsay and guesswork is just ridiculous.

Oddly, I yell at the science less. I expect them to get that wrong.
Exactly what you said! I don't understand declaring the hate before they try it - I admit I am not in love with all the changes, but I still love the show and I want to try before I decide what I think.

*giggle-snort* Not saying nuthin. No. Not a word.
Except that despite my resolution to avoid spoilers, I couldn't resist checking out your post. Using your moment of weakness as an excuse for one of my own. ;-P
Yeah, is it September yet? For several reasons...

I suppose it's the scientific side of the medicine that gets majorly messed up. The entire medical conference scene in "Conversion" is major case of putting fingers in ears and singing "la la la" very loudly.
The CPR type stuff doesn't me make be roll my eyes too often (although I think I've become a little immune to it - like I'm resigned to scenes depicting cardioversion "Charge! Clear!" in any TV series or movie being ridiculously overblown).
And the only thing on SGA that ever made me want to actually throw something at the television were the scenes in "Critical Mass" which had Carson saying things that no doctor trained in Western medicine in the past 20 years or more would've said. The idea that he'd treat a patient against their expressed wishes because he's "taken an oath to preserve life at all costs" is just... just... No frickin way!
Ah, Hollywood medicine. Gotta love it! Or not.

It all came to a header for me last week. I made the mistake of stumbling on the GateWorld Forums. Ugh.. what a hate-fest that place is. And can they whine? Yea.. they can. And I found myself ready to give up on SGA altogether. So sitting off by myself, remembered why I started watching this show in the first place; I LOVE IT!
Now, admittedly, I feel in love with the dynamics of certain characters, but truthfully, shows always go through changes and the attempt really is to make it better, not worse. No matter what we might think.
So. I'm canning the negitive vibes. I'm boxing up my angst over the changes and I'm reasserting my love over this show; of Sheppard, Ronon and Rodney and Radik (God.. i suck at spelling his name).
My new inner mantra is, as per our dear Sheppard: Let's stay positive people!

Go you! When sections of the fandom turn into an angry hate-filled mob, it can leave me wondering "why bother?". But yes, THE SHOW is what it's all about! We've got to remember what we love about the show and not let the fandom kerfuffle spoil it for us.
Positive thinking! Yes!
