Hey, I ended up falling hardest for SGU, which I think puts me on the tiniest island. :)
SGA was mean and stupid and possibly a drunk up close. It took a dramatic concept of such promise and turned it into a screwball comedy and did despicable things to its characters (marginalization, making them unable to retain the lessons of their experiences, etc.), all while the producers and writers gloated boastfully on their blogs. I spent five years with this bad lover and I might still be a little bitter.
I loved SG-1, but in my usual fringe-y way. I loved Jonas (and wrote him a 30K word story). I loved Cam. I kind of didn't mind when Daniel was dead that week. I tried to write Jack as not a doofus. I would never have made it as a writer if it had been my primary Stargate. :)
