Any doubt now that Carson adds more Dynamic to episodes than Keller?

I think Carson added more dynamic than Keller could have in this particular episode given his history with both the Wraith and the Hoffan plague.
But, again, you're attempting universalize a highly subjective notion. People like either character for different reasons.
They are different characters with different histories and they both bring their own elements to the show.sigpic

Nope, no doubt.
The dart cockpit scene alone was worth watching the episode. I kept wondering why they didn't do this type of thing between Carson and Rodney sooner. But no, they axed him with so much potential still left in the character. Gee, who else could they have done this to??? To think that if it wasn't for the Save Carson Beckett Campaign and other efforts, we wouldn't have seen some of this potential come to fruition.

I didn't realize I felt this strongly about the whole Keller/Carson thing, but watching Outsiders I felt a palpable sense of relief having Carson as the SGA doc. Things seemed back in their proper place.
(Mainly, though, I think it's the idea that now almost every time Keller is onscreen, it reminds me of the McKeller ship, which I really don't like.)

Not to turn this into an Anti-Keller thread but I prefer Carson over Keller anyday. I just think Carson's character has more to offer on the dynamic and drama end. A love triangle does not interest me, and I would watch BSG if I wanted that. What interests me is good friendship bonds, and seeing someone willing to sacrifice their life to save others. That to me is more interesting. Not who's banging who.Last edited by Briangate78; 19 October 2008, 09:11 AM.sigpic

I'm happy with either doctor, but i really wish they'd come up with a good reason for Beckett to disappear every so often.
When they discovered him in season 4, he talked about how he'd missed them all and how all he wanted to do was return to Atlantis. But now he's back, he can't get away quick enough and it plays really strangely to me.
I know the actor is only signed for about 5 episodes, so they've spaced them out and varied the style of story, but in the context of the character it doesn't make any sense.
