Wow. This is some letter to SciFi!

[gategrrl]

I *think* I know who the letter writer is, but I'm not sure: Check it out - nialla42, you'll particularly like this - Alix blasts J Mallozzi in a letter to SciFi!

Here's the link:  http://www.scifi.com/sfw/letters/index.html

The letter in question is titled "Karma Will Come For Atlantis Execs"

whoo, those are some cranky pants!

Mallozzi likes to stir people up, because he loves to be the centre of attention, so he'll take that kind of thing as proof he's right and people who complain about what he's doing should be ignored because they're loonies.

I'm sorry the SG:A fans are finding out now what we discovered about TIIC a few years back...

I'm so very glad JM isn't our problem anymore. Poor SGA fans. :(

I'm sure Mallozzi will see it as proof of fans being terribly naughty bad fans by not liking everything Bridge churns out and we should be asking for second helpings, darn it!

I just wish he'd realize it's not necessarily what he's saying, it's how he's saying it that's the big issue. Maybe I should send him a bag of sugar to coat his words? ;)

I've hated Mallozzi and his god-complex since he first decided interacting with fans online was a good thing. The studio should have neutered him years ago.

But as other have said, those letters will just give him something else to post about, something else to wave around as proof that we're all fanatical. *rolls eyes*

But the thing that stood out from that letter (and has me seriously wanting to strangle someone) is that Tapping is going to be in the credits. *fumes* She's a bloody recurring character, not main cast, and she does NOT deserve a spot in the credits just because she was on a DIFFERENT show for 10 years! *sigh*

Of course, it could just be proof that if the show survives to a year 5 (not looking promising at the moment) the idiotic PTB will be panting after Tapping to join the main cast for Atlantis. I love Amanda, but I despise Carter. She ruined SG1 for me and it seems TPTB are itching to have her leading the cast of SGA. I wonder who will be stepping in to take Weir's place? It certainly won't be one of the REAL main characters. *snort* And who are the writers that have a big ol'hard on for Carter? The two chocolate drips that are this year's show runners. *stabs TPTB*

*nods* word.

Maybe I'm missing the point...so the executive producer of a television series is forbidden from deciding the direction and cast of said television series? Or an executive producer must get the approval of the fans before doing so? Other than being unhappy with the creative direction of the show, which is certainly this person's right, how is Mallozzi acting outside of his right and authority?

wow, it sure brings back memories

Not good memories, mind you. More fits of mind numbing rage caused by arrogant execs who were too- arrogant - to just be polite, listen to fans, nod, and then do whatever they wanted to do with their own show.

You know, not that it's relevant, but Eric Kripke, a creator of Supernatural, put an easter egg on the dvd set in which he thanked fans for watching the show.

What a novel concept.....

Thanks for posting the link -- it just shows that some people cannot be taught.
