Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

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?

I was not referring to Holli's spoiler. I was referring to the major casting spoiler posted by Katie M. It is, in fact under the "casting spoiler" clause, hence the calling it a spoiler. Holli posted while I was typing, and getting tea.

ETA: Never mind, I was on crack.

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

Well, per our spoiler rules it isn't a spoiler. New regular. We can say he's been hired, yeah?

Steph: Yeah, I know, right? I expect to have a great deal of difficulty keeping a straight face.

RE Casting Spoiler: Man, this is going to be so weird. I just kinda want to take him aside and ask if he knows what he's getting into. I wonder if they'll let him write? You wouldn't think so, but then they did let Corin Nemec do story for an episode, so...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It is, in fact under the "casting spoiler" clause, hence the calling it a spoiler.

But how? Is an actor's addition to the regular cast a casting spoiler, with no mention of role? My understanding, like Katie's is that it isn't.

eta: Christopher Judge has writing and story credits.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I agree with what ita had said several posts back about this being even less of a 'spoiler' than the whole Spike on Angel thing. It'll be impossible to avoid, especially on this thread where SG and FS are discussed right next to each other fer cryin' out loud, so I say we just call it a casting info we can talk about without white-fonting and be done with it. Yeah? 'Cause talking around it is going to be annoying. And coy.

Right, but he's been with the show for years. I figured the CN situation was more similar (though BB's written successfully for TV before.)

MS also wrote an episode last year, but frankly, as a writer he's very pretty.

Yeah, okay.

Hey, everyone! Ben Browder is becoming a regular cast member of Stargate SG-1!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

That's just... neat.

Judge and Shanks had the familiarity with the show, and not with the art. I think that BB's actual resume should help -- but how soon? In S9?
