I really like all the characters; Dr. Weir is awesome. I love that she's a little out of her element. I mean, she's in charge of the mission and has been from the get-go, so she's clearly been trained to lead. But being trained to lead and then being in these life-or-death situations in which she is responsible for, say, maintaining the civil liberties of the Ethosians----much different. I also like that she's not afraid to make the tough decisions and that she also doesn't consider her emotions a liability.
Ford is awesome! He's so sweet and loyal and good at his job and funny. McKay kills me; I love that he is so flawed. I am a huge fan of flawed characters. Teyla I like, although not as well as Weir. I think because she's an alien, they've got the actress playing Teyla doing this sort of weird things with her mannerisms and etc to indicate that difference, and it hits me kinda odd.
Mostly, I'm just really impressed with the writing. The dialogue is great in this show and I did not expect that.
