The downside is that they've been "thinking about it" for a year. And fuck-all has been done.
Witness Season Three.
Frankly, I don't particularly mind if they don't delve into Teyla's past - although they could develop some interesting things about her past. But they should do something about using her in the present, and giving her a viable future in the franchise.
Sateda was good that way - it looked at Ronon's past and his present and his future and showed us what Ronon would do to keep his family safe, and what the others would do to keep their family together. And their actions were specifically couched in those terms by John.
I'd rather Teyla got an ep like Sateda - grounded in the present and the past, and looking to the future - than an ep like The Real World which was some marvellous acting by Torri, but a dead-end for Liz.
