    Default Rodney McKay sighting on episode 514!

    Note : this is a continuation from "Grace Park sighting on episode 513"

    following my first foray into season 5... and.... holy frak! Rodney McKay's first appearance on the show!!!

    He looks obviously younger....and slimmer! omgosh! Think, Nathan Fillion in his 20's with blond hair! (omg! he has hair!)


    Just so we're on the same page

    Younger, slimmer, and way more of a dick.
    Still love him though. His second appearance (in SG1) was definitly the one that made him a fan favorite.

    Yes he definitely was the second part of that when he was introduced. From what we have seen in SGA though. He may have been somewhat justified. (Only one truly on par with him was Carter. Which drove him even more nuts)

    I'd say that his sister is on par with him too (after all, she solved a problem he'd been working on for a year with her kid's fingerpaint). She just had other priorities.

    I always got the impression that there were other people on par with McKay, like Zelenka but for McKay it just came more naturally and easily.

    Yes quite true. Zelenka was just as smart but Rodney was always a step ahead. Though his character did like to knock Rodney whenever he could.

    With Rodney, his character was meant to be abrasive and non caring. Once they realized they could use him. They made corrections to his character to make him more acceptable to the audience. That's when we see episodes where in the old and young Weirs. His former self sacrifices himself. To buy them time to escape. It's those times that make people invest in him.
