Maybe instead of taking this two character out maybe you should just remove the writers of SGA. If you read the story of some of the fans have written on one of the fanfiction you guys would have a second thought on not removing this two characters.

It was probably a matter of budget. I'd keep Carson over Carter. Carter is SG-1. It'll be annoying and uncomfortable sticking her into the Atlantis team. Oh, for Pete's Sake... bring back Carson and be done with it. It looks like Tapping coming over to Atlantis pushed McGillion out. It was probably a matter of budget. I’d keep Carson over Carter.

Granted I was surprised they would kill off such a loveable character but shows don't seem as dangerous or edgy if character's lives aren't at stake. Take Ford for example: he may not actually be dead but we have learnt great things about this galaxy with the introduction of a great character Ronon. I can't see why people are so gutted by the addition of Carter to Atlantis, she has guested in a few episodes and those went great. She is a great character in the Stargate Universe and unfortunately that includes the Pegasus Galaxy. I look forward to watching SGA season 4 for this reason. A show is good when it is fresh. Season 4 will feel new and fresh to me and that is good. I will miss the characters they are removing, but TPTB are not going to destroy the shows we love they are getting better and better. Granted Pure Atlantis fans may think that it is wrecking "There Show" but I think that they should watch more SG1 and see the Carter character for what it truly is a Great Character not an addition that will cost money to boot other characters. You cannot tell me that Carter doesn't suit Atlantis perfectly. And for the fans of Atlantis maybe you should realise that it is a spinoff not an original series. It all started with SG1 it couldn't have existed otherwise. They are raising the stakes and i think it bodes well for the next Season. I have watched every Stargate episode to date so I know exactly what I am on about. SG1 is my favourite show but Atlantis comes in 2nd. This will be a way for me to enjoy both shows.

Just me and one of my favorite shows which with a title like Sunday i expected to be nice and relaxing. When the tumor exploded i was in disblief, i kept waiting for someone to say gotcha or april fools or something. And now to find that Wier is going as well. Now i am convinced it is the twilight of the Stargate franchise, no matter how much it pains me to say so as i have been following the show for close to six years now, a big part of my life. It leaves me deeply troubled. I watched this episode on a sunny day, after a good meal, with a old drink in my hand.

I was so excited when Atlantis was advertised and couldn’t wait for it to debut, now I’m not very happy. I would always watch Atlantis, because it was different, exciting and to me, new over SG-1. I was hoping for more from Atlantis than SG-1 comes to Atlantis to take over the show, now it will be SG-1 in the Pegasus Galaxy, let me YAK up the hairball now! I am so disappointed in TPTB, they really don’t think much of us fans now do they?! The cast changes are unacceptable to me.

The most likely scenario is the budget. Tapping's in; McGillion's out. They couldn't afford both. As for future shows that TPTB produce: The old saying comes to mind, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." I think I heard that first from Scotty on the original Star Trek, of all places. Fitting! Also: I think this is a bit different from Daniel Jackson. Michael Shanks as I recall wanted to leave Sg1. He wasn't shoved out one cold day in Vancouver and told "Don't let the door...." You know the rest. Janet (comment #3) is right-on right.

There will be a lot of viewers lost through this mistake just like removing Daniel Jackson from SG-1 it won't work the same He is a brilliant character so funny and delivered the one liners with comic precession.
