I think the reason that Carter didn't work is because they didn't do the little filler bits with her.

What I mean:

Elizabeth often wasn't a big part of any given episode. Often times, her screen time would be a matter of minutes each episode. But they would show her sending the team off through the Gate, worrying about them if they were late, and then receiving them when they came back. They didn't do that with Sam. There might be two or three episodes in a row where she just didn't appear at all. It made it seem like she just wasn't around.

AYRT. Looking back I can see what you mean. I think that partially bugged me too because they made Carter such a non entity on SGA and it felt like a waste of a good character.

Writing was just falling apart in general when Carter came on, many of the problems would have been there still even if they had not brought her on.

*nods nods*

It just didn't make a lot of sense. They could have filmed all her filler bits for a whole episode in like a day. And it would made her seem like a real part of Atlantis.
