And I'm really tired of having her inserted into every episode because they want the romantic triangle to fly and therefore we need to not forget she's on the show. (Think poor Katie Brown and her doomed position on the show) Its not the actress' fault but I really have no use for her character and I wish they'd give her screen time to other actors who have put in their time, do have characters that are actually well rounded and have believable relationships with everyone else and who have more going for them then just being unbelievably cute (again, not the actress' fault)


But Katie Brown wasn't in as many episodes as Keller is. Whatever else that can be said about their relationship, a lot of it was maintained through comments rather than scenes.

I don't mind Keller, at all. I disliked Carson quite a bit. But I feel they serve the same purpose, gender differences aside. They are each a supporting character that gets undue amounts of attention. Frankly, I view both characters as efforts by the writers to have a (white) human to write for, because they consistently favor these characters over the aliens (of color) that are supposed to be on the team that the show's about. In short, I think Keller gets screentime that should go to Teyla and/or Ronon.
