They killed the doctor with an exploding tumor. I'm sorry, but there must be some really bored writers in charge of that show... sometimes I think it's so unfair that I'm not writing some teevee series with my super clever plotlines...

Dude, that happened like last season. The new doctor is the mechanic chick from Serenity now. Get with the program. She is much easier on the eyes than the old doc.
The old doc also got fatter as the series progressed. A little too much haggis at the crew buffet between takes, me thinks...
Anyway, Stargate Atlantis jumped the shark with it's pilot episode, IMHO.
If it were being reviewed by those guys from In Living Color, it would get a big "Hated it!"
If it were being reviewed by Chuck Norris, they wouldn't need a Stargate or spaceship to get to the Pegasus Galaxy... his roundhouse kick would have sent them there in half the time.

I'm wondering if the addition of Samantha Carter will put things back on track. It's not as good as the original Stargate series but it does keep me tuning in on Friday nights. That Tayla chick is borderline mentally handicapped in my opinion. Her acting reminds me of a female version of Bill Shatner. I think the only thing that keeps me watching is the constant bickering between Sheppard and McCay mixed with a dash of Zelinka. I'm also a fan of Mitch Pelegi from the old X files and his occassional appearance keeps me interested also. I'm hoping they bump off Tayla this season, she is frakin annoying.
This series has suffered major identity crisis from day one. I mean, they can't even decide on who the bad guys are and stick with them. Everytime a little bit of depth in plot and background and culture of an enemy is added in (which makes it more interesting instead of space cowboys and indians), they decide they need a new plot twist with new bad guys...
Tala and Ronin = the Amazon woman Tasha Yar from ST TNG + Worf + Tilk Elizabeth = Capt Picard + Capt Janeway + Samantha Carter Sheppard = cross between O'Neil, Riker, Capt Kirk on a bad hair day Rodney = Scotty + Data (w/ emotion chip) + Spock + Jonas + X-Files Lone Gunmen

I am pretty lukewarm about the whole series. I only watched half of the episodes in the last season, and I bought it. My wife likes it a lot, and my kids, when they get to watch it (we tend to screen out the gross and bloody ones), are pretty much obsessed with it.
They all want to be Samantha Carter.
The women in SG:Atlantis are all pretty unlikeable.
It's pretty much all about Rodney... and I love Zilenka too...

no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing... the truth of God will go forth till it has penetrated every website, sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished and the great Jehovah shall say the work is done
Great show tonight... Shepherd let his hormones get the better of him.
Those wraith are just evil!
