    Carson and Keller in season 5. Can it work?

    I don't think a thread like this exits so I'll start one. The mods can close it if they wish. I am a supporter of both and with Jewel confirming she's returning, is it possible for both characters to work together? Let's speculate and offer our thoughts but I want to make this clear. This is not a place to discuss our hatred for one character or the other nor is it a place to praise them. This is strictly to discuss how we think they could intergrate both characters to the show. If this turns into a "battle of the fans" I will request it closed.

    I think that this is extremly plausible. Keller can remain as CMO and Carson can be cheif surgeon and help with the most dire circumstances when extra help is needed to save lives.

      I agree, let Carson come back but keep Keller. Rodney has Zelenka, why can't there be two doctors?

          Correct which is why I created this as JM has said they are considering it.

            Exactly it can work!

              I wouldn't mind Keller hanging around for a few eps in a Zelenka-type role, but I don't think she should stay as Head of Medicine. She's not old enough or confident enough to handle the role IMO - they need to bring in someone with a stronger personality.

                I am probably going to get flamed for this but I disagree. Yes Carson is more experienced but despite her young age and early lack of confidence she has definatly proven her worth IMO.

                  I can work, but Keller should stay in Atlantis. She needs more development, but I think we will learn her better in the second half of season 4.

                  Beckett can be a jolly joker, who should have an own, bigger story arc. I hope he will return at least for 4-6 episode and Keller should get 2-5 episode in next season.

                    I agree that I don't Keller should stay head of medicine. I am having a hard time with her character being head of medicine mostly because of her youthfulness which doesn't convince me she has had enough training or experience to be in that position, however I think that Dr. Keller is a great character with some potiental that I would like to see grow. I think she makes a great doctor, just not a Head doctor at this point in her career.

                    I would really love to see Carson and Keller working together. I think that Paul and Jewel have wonderful chemistry together. It would have been nice to have Carson mentoring Keller, then I think the cast changes would have been more plausible regardless of how I felt about Carson's death, which I wasn't happy with.

                      Carson is specialized in genetic, Keller is better in special deceases. So they can work greatly together.

                        They could both be recurring, bot not both regulars.

                          I think Carson could be a recurring and Keller a guest or recurring character

                            I think it is possible.

                            I don't really see how there would be a problem, especially if they were to use some form of alternation between the two. Keller could do odd numbered episodes, Carson could do even numbered. On top of that, Carson could be used if the episode would involve the Wraith or Michael and his mutants, while Keller could be used if it comes to general emergencies and offworld missions.

                              You should use "Jennifer", because Keller is her family name. So Carson & Jennifer or Beckett & Keller.

                              I support Livingstone idea, they should be both recurring. And if the main characters need 10-12 times the doctors in the new season, than they will be hardly whumped by TPTB.
