Well, there's news that Teyla has some major storyarc this season. We'll see how that translates from 'interviews and spoilers' to 'on the screen'.
One thing that I've been forgetting, while caught up in everything else, is that Carter's going to be a recurring guest on the show - like Lorne, Caldwell, Zelenka, and Heitmeyer - not a main cast.
We're all basing our predictions on how Sam's been used in SG1, but Atlantis isn't SG1, and her previous times in Atlantis have been one-offs and, so, notable. As a regular guest, there's a distinct possibility that she'll be used differently to how she was in SG1 and previous SGA eps. Just a small possibility mind, but one nevertheless.
I guess really I generally hope with more women on the show that TPTB might attempt female friendship with more enthusiasm and effort than they ever gave Weir and Teyla, though with the changes they might be able to include that too *is optimistic*.
You're not the only one. However, TPTB's track record isn't good on this front. :-/
