SGA casting spoilers

So it's official, Tapping it out, Robert Picardo is in. (Warning, multiple casting spoilers in the article.)

WTF, PTB?

Seriously, you're putting in charge the guy who so far you've never shown to make the "right" decision even once? The one whose decisions swing from wildly reckless to wildly cautious depending on which plot points you need him to fill?

*sigh*

It doesn't help that I've been so bored with this season so far. Everyone else seemed to love last week's ep, and I was bored silly. Perhaps that comes from so many years of watching SG-1 deal with Replicators; they're done, nothing new, please move on now.

Still wondering how they're going to bring back Beckett without just using another AR storyline. Still, if it gets him back for multiple eps next season, I'm all for it.

Plus, we get Daniel for an unspecified but plural number of eps in S5. Hurrah! I'll bet he's been super jealous of Sam for getting to live there for a while and be in charge.

Oh, SGA, you are the most tumultuous show regarding casting ever. Stop with this revolving door thing!

*HUGE eyeroll*

Okay, and what up with Jewel S. as a "regular" cast member instead of recurring? Because DUDE!!! If *any* recurring character should be put in the damn credits, it's ZELENKA, damn it!!

*grumble growl grumble*

Agreed!

And I also agree about putting Wolsey in charge. Because, yeah, everyone will follow *him* without any problems.

I fear Zelenka will never get regular cast status, even though he's in a ton of episodes and everyone loves him. He's like Janet Frasier on SG-1 - she was in probably half the eps in any given early season, at least, but never got in the opening credits.

It's possibly b/c Jewel is a "big name" type, but who knows.

Uh, didn't Janet Frasier *die*???

They had better not touch a HAIR on his HEAD, damnit! In credits or not!
