I completely agree. From best to worst, I rank the seasons 3, 2, 1/4, 4/1, 5.
I wonder how much better the 5th season could have been if (a) they knew earlier that there would be a fifth season and (b) they would have been able to keep Claudia Christian.
It would have been significantly better. Season 5 was so bad that almost any structural change would have been an improvement.

Tracy Scoggins did a good job as Captain Lochley, but it would have been better to see Ivanova in that position.
I agree. I never cared for the Lochley character, nor did most other fans. I feel bad for Tracy Scoggins, though, because she got a lot of crap from the fans that she didn't deserve. It was just a sh*tty situation all around.

One of the things I liked about the final season of Stargate: Atlantis was having Robert Picardo's Woosley in charge. That just made for an interesting character dynamic because he goes from a position of second guessing everyone's command decisions after the fact and informing them what they should have done and into the position of actual command and learning that you can't always go by the book.
I must have bailed out of that show before it got to that point, because I don't remember Picardo appearing on the show.
