Atlantis has been picked up by City-TV (regular cable) and I've been enjoying the season so far. I believe it is the first season. I think that the character development has been great. I really really like the interplay between Sheppard and McKay. McKay is without a doubt the most interesting character. I love his impatient sarcasm, and constant banter between him and the rest of the team (Sheppard: "don't tell McKay that I said that about hockey. He's Canadian, they're touchy about that"). I can see Richard Dean Anderson's touch in this.
What I don't get are the shoulder patches of the different 'origin' countries of the team. At first they were quite evident, while in later episodes, they seem to be cgi'd out leaving colour matched rectangles on the spots. What gives? Did some network execute get complaints about too much "un-Americanism"?
At any rate, I am tryly enjoying the series, and would love to hear the back story to the Wraith, their origin, and reason for their conquest of humans.
