Totally ditto on the liking Teal'c more than Jack nowadays. And on the other stuff too.
I've read the transcript for the lowdown thing, and having Damian Kindler saying "Oh, I think Baal is an egyptian god" it's the epithome of how bad they have ruined it and how they didn't get what SG was about.
Sg-1 seasons 1 to 3 was a clever way of expanding the movie, the new characters were interesting enough and the plots were faithful to the spirit but also exploring new possibilities. I love Sam seasons 1 to 3. Teal'c could do better but then from time to time you have him saying stuff like the one he says in Serpent's song and it's brilliant.
It went to hell after Glassner left. Brad Wright can write good scripts, but he is lacking in the continiuity and being creative department. In season 4 they took the easy road and look what we have now.
Another problem is that the kind of people you're referring to, are people who came to the show in season 4. Many of the ponyclub members are typical ship material, people who ship the people in JAG just as they ship Sam and Jack, so they don't care for the original SG stuff the same way as us.
You've been here for a very long time, and you and me can count lots of people we knew that aren't around or haven't been for ages, because the show shifted. We've stayed and we've met new people but we've become an anacronism in this fandom.
Which is very appropiate, as we like our Dear Daniel so much. ;-)
