YES, yes, yes! Exactly. My feelings exactly. I didn't have any preconceived bias' toward the character at the beginning either, but she has just gone downhill to the point I hate seeing her on screen. You've explained it perfectly. I keep going back to the 26 year old CMO (unbelievable), going against Sheppard's orders with the nanites (consequences), dropping the ball in The Shrine and then apparently viewing the "love" declaration more than once (creepy & unprofessional) the milquetoast personality that changes week to week that now has 2 male leads "competing" for her. Everyone loves her, but why? The writers haven't given me a reason to care. I'm not invested in her at all. Now she gets major story arcs and more dedicated episodes than Sheppard, Ronon and Teyla. I just feel she is being force fed to us as the Mary Sue of each writer. She isn't perfect, yet no one ever gets mad at her and she never has to face the consequences of her actions/decisions and she is the love interest of 2 of the team, yet again no one has a problem with that. I agree with what you've said 100%. Sorry for the rant, the character and her front burner storylines really push my buttons.
