    Other than maybe a few more jokes about being hot and bothered, I don’t really see any reason much of it would need to change…? I mean either you have eye candy for straight women/gay men, or you have eye candy for straight men/gay women.

    It’s not like they made Carter some one-dimensional thing, why would they do it with the other cast?

    They’d probably need new lore tho to explain why it’s all women.

    (Admittedly I’ve only watched sg-1 and the movies, so this may not apply more broad-ly)

      You remember Anise/Freya the Tokra, played by Vanessa Angel? Yeah, she’s in the show basically as an answer to Seven of Nine.

        I honestly don’t, but if that in sg-1 ima need to rewatch it, as it’s been a hot minute…

        Been rewatching xena for the xena/gabriel relationship undertones, which Lucy lawless only admitted to grocking upon post-film rewatch, even tho there’s so so so so much that should have clued her in… why not sg-1 for a hot chick I guess…?

        I like 7 because she’s an autist-coded character, like data. Is this freya like that?

          Anise/Freya is a Tokra so she’s actually two characters but in this case it doesn’t matter much. She guest stars in 3 or 4 episodes in the middle seasons, and in almost all cases she shows up with an experiment that she’s being a little too ambitious about and has a major oops moment.

      That’s a very long and serious analysis of a horny shitpost.

            Ahh, no my friend. That’s not how these things work at all.

            People spend pages and pages breaking down short jokes. 5 sentences is still short. Even if the source that literally asks us to think about a complicated thing and asks a question about said complicated thing is 3 sentences shorter.
