You're getting ready to send Atlantis back to Pegasus. Or perhaps you are among a handful of secret plotters planning to steal the city and return it on your own, knowing it means permanent estrangement from Earth.
Which doctor inspired more confidence, Carson or Keller? (names chosen in this format because it had a nice ring to it)
Who made the better CMO?
Which is more likely to say, "Yes, I'll go back to Pegasus?"
Which is more likely to turn a blind eye to the stealing of Atlantis if TPTB won't send the city back? Which is more likely to actively aid, even if they didn't intend on going back themselves? Would either one rat on the rest of the expedition planning such a risky move?
If you could send *any* medical doctor, either in this fandom or another, who would you choose?

2. Carson
3. Carson...because Keller never really fit in. Her treatment of Ronon and Teyla (as Pegasus natives) was terrible.
4. Carson. He helped them get Atlantis back before against direct orders. (The Return) I could see Keller ratting them out in some naive impression that she was actually helping them.
5. Janet Fraser (SG1) was awesome!

It didn't help that she so often was the stand-in Heroine of the Week who needs Rescuing. Yes, on occasion, she got herself out of a situation. More often than not, someone had to save her.
Oh, Janet. Now there was a strong female character who was competent and feminine and you never *once* thought of her as helpless.

One reason that I'm glad SGA ended when it did and why I am ignoring anything that is revealed on SGU when Rodney and Woolsey are on it. In fact, I hope they never develop the SGA movie. I prefer my canon closed now. :-)
