Balancing Fragility
Okay, I gotta ask:
Fragile Balance? Uh, huh? Was the title a reference to the Asgard situation? What was being balanced? (SG-1's sanity? *g*) Was this a hold-over from when the ep was originally conceived? Before it turned into a comedy?
Oh yeah, I just checked and I'm still slightly creeped out by the thought of a 50-year-old guy in a teen's body running after teen girls.
And a final note - you'd have to drag me kicking and screaming back to high school. And I actually had a pretty good time in high school. Lots of friends. Lots of extra curricular activities. No unfortunate pantsings. It's just that life as an adult is *way* more interesting. :)
[eta] I didn't mention that I actually liked the episode, did I? Well, other people have mentioned tons of stuff already, so I didn't bother to give a repeat of stuff mentioned before. But this is by far my favorite "Jack-lite" episode!
Holy crap! It's raining again!

Hmm.
The general concept, I'm with you, slightly. Jack? Not so much. He's going into this having learned from 30-odd years of mistakes, after all. I'd probably rather have him chasing after them than the typical clueless 15-year-old guy.
Yeah, I see that. I just still get this creepy vibe.
Right there with you. You couldn't pay me enough. Same goes for college, although I do get nostalgic for that part of my life occasionally in a way I never do with high school. It was fun. It's very definitely meant to be done once
Yep. Yeah, I'd more quickly go back to college. Although I'd only want to visit for a day or two - not be stuck there all over again.
