"The Last Man" was a fun time travel episode, giving us another glimpse of Atlantis' possible future. It ends with a wonderful setup for the next season. Teyla is still being held by Michael. Sheppard leads his team to a possible location for her. But, the building ends up collapsing on them — a nice booby trap left by good ol' Michael.
The attempted character development wasn't as successful as it could have been. "Midway" is a good example. Ronon didn't change or grow as much as he could have. He resented T'ealc, which was expected, ended up respecting him in the end - but that was virtually a given. When being interviewed by the I.O.A he responded with very brief yes and no answers. What else would we expect? Did anyone really think he'd just blast them all? No. Plus, he'd just spent some time expending all his hostility on Wraith, so he was at ease when he was finally interviewed. Well, it's not like they do a lot with Ronon's character anyway, which is a shame.
Overall, it was a decent season, if a little slow. It set up a number of stories that need to be completed in the next season.

Stargate is Hot.
I´m since 6 years interested in psychologic abilitys like in Stargate for example.
It´s to much to say all here, just visit my website.
All greats go out to the psychologic underworld of this nation.
