Well, I don't quite see Carter as one of the worst female roles, but some of the writing they've done for her character is pretty bad.
I'm okay with carter on SGA (don't really have a choice) as long as she's support only. If Carter gets as stuck in the background as Weir, that's fine. I mean, why should Carter get any more air time than Weir did? (Although the writer DO love her, so I'm willing to bet she'll have more dialogue, etc than Weir had in all three seasons).
One thing I worry about with carter on SGA is that SGA fandom could get saturated with the more rabid S/J shippers (who in turn will probably want to ship Shep with somebody).
I'd love to see Weir back, but I'm figuring the writers will get rid of her like they got rid of Ford. Out of sight, out of mind :(
