Once again [b]Spoiler Alert[/b], okay, think I've covered myself :)

I've managed to see the Season 3 finale (First Strike) and I have nothing but praise for Jewel. She's come in with the very difficult task of replacing a character loved by many watchers of the show, and as (on SG-1) the replacement of Daniel Jackson with Jonas showed us, this is a very difficult task for an act(or/ress) to accomplish, in particular on a show, where the fans care very deeply about the characters.

Now, this may just be my love of Jewel as Kaylee continuing on, but I personally say good luck to Jewel on her tenure on Atlantis.
