I'll come back and actually read your entry in more depth when it isn't the middle of the night and I can actually comprehend things, but I wanted to say that earlier today I poked around a bit at that entry and journal, and the thing is, she's *not* watching the same show we are. She's watching the Teyla/Michael show. Which is an interesting reading of SGA, and when you look at it from that perspective, with Michael being a central pivotal character, I think her points make a lot of sense. But even though that's an interesting reading (and I suppose you can't say anyone's reading is *wrong*), it's a really *active* reading, if you know what I mean. You have to bring *a lot* in with you that's not actually in the text (and may in fact be contrary to the text).

So in other words, I completely disagree with her, but it's kind of fascinating. More when I'm awake. :)
