McKay had an awful lot of character development sitting Atlantis’s run. He was brought into SG-1 to be an unlikeable foil for Carter, the fact you can end up rooting for him a lot of the time says a lot about David Hewlett’s portrayal of him.

Yeah, so much this. I loved his transformation over the course of the series. He is by far the strongest example of complex character development in the show, possibly the entire franchise
