It may be unfair to compare them, but people are going to do it anyway. I won't speak for anyone else, but I am still bitter about what TPTB did to Paul and Carson, and in my mind, that's going to make the burden of proof from Jewel's performance that much greater. I loved Carson so much that it may not be possible for Jewel to impress me simply because I'm biased against wanting to see ANY character replace my favorite, and I'll freely admit it. I can be as analytical about her performance as anyone else, but can you really blame a Carson thunker for being resentful for what happened? I can try to imagine how my opinion of the Keller character would have formed had they not offed Carson, but it's really not the same.

Keller was better as a robot/replicator in TMC than she ever was as a doctor on Atlantis. Even then, I think it would have been spookier to have our lovable Carson be the sneaky, baddie replicator. Would have been cool to see.
I just don't feel Keller as anything close to a competent doctor. Med student yes, head of a high-tech medical facilty? No way.

IMO, Keller needed the special effects to be interesting, while RepliLorne managed just by "acting", but this splinter group of replicators have potential.
Your post has me considering something. Wonder if that character (RepliKeller) could be a recurring one. Too bad they killed off the wraith character JS portrayed. A wraith who wanted to be human would be a nice contrast to Michael.
Carson FTW.

Regardless, it's still a good example that he was a standout guest star.
Back on topic-

I like both Characters and tbh I wasn't sure if I'd truly like Keller. I thought i would from First Strike but we didn't see much of her but she has been awsome so far. I love her and I would love Carson to come back but if he does I hope they can find a ballance between the two so they can keep both characters.
