Oh. My. God.
I watched tonight's ep of Stargate SG-1. That's "Heroes, Part II", Season 7.
My god. Fraiser. Dead.
I knew -- partly because I wasn't hearing anything about Richard Dean Anderson leaving the show -- that the teaser ads with him taking a staff weapon blast and Carter at a memorial service might not be connected.
But it didn't even occur to me it could be Fraiser. I feel completely blindsided.
If Hammond was the father of the SGC, Dr. Fraiser was undoubtedly the mom. Protective, caring, the doctor with her higher oath in the midst of a crowd of rule-following airmen (SG-1 being notably excepted from that particular pejorative).
I cried. I screamed at the TV.
I'm going to miss her. In fact, this might be the first character death I can think of (in fandom in general, not in SG1) that I simply don't want it to have happened. I may actually have to
a. fix it;
b. pretend it never happened;
and I just never do that. (Well, except as an interesting intellectual exercise, but that doesn't count.)
*sniffle*

I have deliberately spoiled myself in SG1 for the past couple of years to avoid feeling like I'm being yanked around by that show. Otherwise I'd just be a wreck.
