Elizabeth Mitchell has RIDICULOUS amounts of chemistry with everyone, this is true. But I mostly ship everyone/everyone anyway so, I always assume I'm a bit biased :)
What I hate even more than female character bashing is badly written female characters in a show. Because it's the ultimate form of female character bashing.
On the one hand, yes but at the same time, a lot of people seem to use the 'she's poorly written/doesn't get enough character development/only a love interest/so on' excuse as reasons to hate on female characters. And I think there's a difference between female characters who are truly badly written and ones that just don't get enough character development or are surrounded by terrible storylines. For instance, the women of the Stargateverse tended to be overlooked or stuck in ridiculous plots a lot of the time. But I don't really think any of them were badly written, they just got screwed over by the writers.
