I'm re-watching BSG. And only now I have discovered, how much better is for me to watch a show, when I'm not emotionally invested in it.
It's a lot easier to ignore plot holes and any other questionable stuff the writes may come up with.
I'm unable to do the same with SGA.
The plot holes seems huge as a barn. The characters sometimes act so stupid and make so idiotic calls, it's embarrassing to watch.
And I constantly worry, how much of a clown they're gonna make of Rodney this time.
Of course, I'm oversimplifying here (for one, the quality of writing is - unfortunately for SGA - a lot better in BSG). But it's still a bit sad, don't you think? That I can't fully enjoy my number 1 show, because I like it too much.
We are almost at the half of the season. But I have a feeling like not much actually happened. Comparing to the same time in seasons one and two - it's like things now happen in a "slow motion". Don't get me wrong - watching SGA is still a treat for me. Each weekend I'm making sure I have enough time to watch it in peace. It's just - I think I'm getting less and less of what I hoped for.
Eh, it's probably fault of all those fantastic writers in fandom.
You spoiled me, guys.
But I don't really care that much, please feel free to keep doing this ;-)
I'm in a shitty mood again and I need a story.
A story, when Rodney is missing or hurt or whatever bad happens to him, and John looses it. Like - completely and utterly looses it.
Doesn't have to be slash. I'm equally fond of a strong-friendship gen. Oh, and with happy ending, of course (unless you want me to get worse).
I've re-read "But never the nights" but it's still not enough.
So, got any recs? I'm seriously begging here.

Back to bed now. I think I'm coming down with a flu or something, and I really don't have time to be sick.
I'm like 4:30 minutes into "Reunion" (the credits just started). Damn bastards! Poor, poor Rodney... Although Sheppard didn't look too happy, either (if I didn't read his expression entirely wrong).
Edit: 12:30 into the ep - I'm close to vomiting. Rodney's making absolute fool of himself. WHY?? You damn TPTB fu..ers!!
I need some wine, now.
Edit 2: On the brighter side - Rodney looks totally hot in new jacket.
Edit 3:

Final edit:
( more spoilers )
Despite the shameful beginning, I actually enjoyed it. Which is a good sign, I suppose.
What's bad, is that I spend too much time worrying how bad they're gonna make Rodney / Carter scenes. I can't help it, especially seeing what I just saw.
Oh, and one more thing -
