Teyla got shafted pretty hardcore this season. To be fair, Ronon was similarly shafted. Ronon got "Broken Ties," Teyla got "The Queen" and "The Prodigal," and neither of them got to do anything that affected the plot in any other episode. It's one of the things that annoyed me about this season.
It's funny - other people have complained that it was all about Rodney and Keller this season, but to me it feels like the show is all about John and Rodney. Not at the same time - it's like the show has to feature either one or the other, but no other characters really get the plot-light. Keller's really only there either as a plot McGuffin ("Identity") or to service the McKay storyline.
Meh. At any rate, count me as another person disappointed at The Vanishing of Teyla. (And my other half, too.)
