You are so right, and yet I adore McKay, mistakes and all. I would be sad to see him go. And I have to warn you that in later seasons Weir makes some jaw droppingly awful decisions. Not on a let's-wake-up-a-race-of-killers scale, but horrifically unethical. Ignoring Teyla's being the only one with common sense.

Seriously, why do I like this show?

Sheppard, you can jettison into space as far as I'm concerned.
