to my discomfit I found myself liking Rodney (and by extension, some of the team, particularly John) less and Keller more, which is... incredibly confusing considering how much I love Rodney, John, etc.
That's actually exactly what friendshipper said...we stopped arguing the issue for that reason.
For me the issue isn't actually that Keller's done less, but that the writers haven't highlighted what she's done as much. It's easier to point out what Rodney's done because the writers make a bigger deal of it. Which annoys me because I think there's some sexism in the writing going on there.
--Actually for me, the real issue is that I don't like Keller for a variety of reasons (number one, she bores me; number two, the damn romance stuff), and so I'm picking on all the flaws in her writing (which I insist are there, and maybe to a greater degree than some of the other chars, but whatever!) I'm stopping doing that for now because I've had too much of it lately...might get back to it later, but for now I'd rather just squee about the show than complain about it.
Err, sorry to not meta back as extensively, I just burned myself out! ^^;
