Jewel Staite has put up an entry on her blog about season 4 of Stargate Atlantis and the Beckett situation. I don't think there's anything too spoilerish as long as you know what's going on casting-wise, otherwise, don't read

I have to confess that I'm fairly new to the Stargate fandom, so I don't remember the reaction to Corin Nemec's replacing Michael Shanks. But Jonas certainly didn't fare very well, did he. I think Jewel Staite has an uphill battle ahead of her.

Unfortunatley any actor who takes a job where another character used to be will always be met with some kind of resistance. Some fans can be totally whacko about it (fortunately, it's only a handful, but they do tend to be vocal) while the rest voice concern. I've seen this sort of thing in various fandoms over the years, for decades, in fact!
