Maybe they offered acting classes to Welling as incentive.
Edit: Or required them.
Book: Where's the doctor? Not back yet?
Zoe: (beat) We don't make him hurry for the little stuff. He'll be along.
Book: He could hurry... a little.

All is well that ends in pizza.

So I watched "The Broca Divide" tonight, it's one of the several season-1 SG episodes I hadn't seen.
It made me laugh and laugh. SG-1 getting the shit kicked out of them within moments of coming through the gate, Daniel not having the vaguest idea of how to defend himself, Teal'c wandering around calling "Daniel!"
Plus, the horrible prosthetics and stuff they had on RDA. And the howling! And Sam attacking Jack!
Although I found the scene where Jack beat up Daniel a little disturbing. Loved Janet, though. She was so cute and excited, while worried at the same time.
I can't wait to see "Hathor".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Some people think Emancipation when they think SG-1 nadir.
Not me. I think Broca Divide.
Ack.

Broca Divide was pretty bad. Emancipation is on my hard drive but I can't bring myself to watch it. Once was enough.
Must check the To Do List and see when Hathor airs.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
But you didn't mention the best part, where the planet doesn't rotate! And this causes no problems for the inhabitants whatsoever!
I can't wait to see "Hathor".
Okay, I'm just going to admit again, right here, that I think Hathor is Big Big Fun. But then I've got a thing for Cranky!Sam.

OMG! Yes! It took me the longest time to figure out what that was all about, because nobody ever mentions it! As if it's no big deal. Light side, dark side, yada yada.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I enjoyed Broca Divide, bad make-up and all. Cheesetastic as hell, but... you know, *fun* cheese. And Janet with her medical epiphany was so cute! It was Teryl Rothery's first episode, right? She immediately made a very favorable impression on me, which none of her rotating possible successors have managed to do thus far.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Light side, dark side, yada yada.
Wait, if it's a planet in orbit around a larger body, doesn't that mean it does rotate, just really really slowly? I mean, if the same face is always towards the sun, then that face has to rotate so that one rotation is exactly the length of one orbit, and both in the same direction.
Right? Right? Am I envisioning this backwards?

You're right, Nutty. It's a planet whose year is the same length as its day.
Still hideously uninhabitable, though, since one side freezes and the other boils.

Er, yes. (Oops.)
