Steph, you'll do fine with no backstory (or, you know, a nice, general summary). And, you know, if you want to get a feel at all, there are about a kajillion and a half opportunities for the reruns on sci-fi. Oh, and all my squeeing? Purely the actor. Plus, talk about a shot in the arm for the show.

I'm betting USAF or some civilian capacity like Daniel, only what and why? I dunno. But I figure human from Earth.

I'm still just dee-lighted.

They should bring back Tanith.

They so should. It's possible Teal'c missed, yeah?

When everyone started freaking out about casting, I thought it was because of Wayne Brady, and I was very confused. (warning: link is spoilery!) But now that I know what it actually, is, I'm thrilled, so hooray! for the casting directors.

(also: Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch? )

Eeeks, Holli! Major spoilers in that link!

Eeeeks!

I have a feeling this is going to be a "widely known" casting decision and at some point we may have to declare it beyond spoilerfont for the main point of the actor being signed to SG-1.

Under what rules *is* it a spoiler though? Along with Holli's text?

But, but! I said in the whitefont!

Augh. Sorry.

Ahahahaha! Wayne Brady on SG-1?!? I would expect him to break into some sort of song that's a bastardized summary of the plot of his particular episode.

Steph, have you seen him on Chapelle's Show? Because there's a whole other sort of unintentional hilarity associated with that picture, if you have.

Holli, it's the other guy in the picture that's a spoiler. And the caption.

Still really sorry. Did I mention that? 'cause, sorry.

I'll survive. Just... you may want to edit the post to add a warning for more than one casting spoiler.
