Since we've talked several times about my issues with the Kanaan-hatas and author's punishing Teyla for having a romantic relationship other than John, I don't feel like I can add anything more to that discussion other than a healthy amount of word.
As for your season five worries, I hope that the PTB actually pull something off and let Teyla actually participate in stuff this year. Ronon got increased screen time this season - not anywhere near Rodney and John's, of course, but we saw him and got to know him better than we did in S3 IMO.
Part of the problem with the back half of this season was that Rachel went on maternity leave and she was missing from three episodes - which I completely understand on Rachel's behalf, but I can't let PTB get away with. Not even mentioning her or what she was doing during those episodes? Lazy writing. And it's not like they couldn't have picked up a few shots for those episodes while Rachel was still around.
And my hopes for the Teyla episode aren't too high this year. The episode title is The Queen so, unless the PTB do something completely unexpected (ha!), you can guess where that's leading to.
Eep! I'm letting my frustrations with TPTB show! *runs off*
