I know that SG-1 is sacred to most people. The original cast was tremendous. I was never a huge Amanda Tapping fan but Michael Shanks played his role so well that I believe Daniel Jackson became the heart and soul of the entire show. Episodes he wasn't there always felt wrong. Corin Nemec was great but he was no Michael Shanks. Christopher Judge was amazing as Teal'c. In the end, we come always come back to RDA. He was the massive name that brought the show together. The lighthearted personality and almost childlike wonder he brought to the character was extremely memorable.
Ultimately, this original cast could never be improved upon. If somewhere down the line SG-1 gets a reboot, I would have mixed feelings. On one hand I would be super scared that they would do something to destroy a franchise that will always hold a special place in my heart. On the other hand, I miss the show tremendously and I would enjoy to see how things might have played out differently in another alternate universe.
In my perfect alternate SG-1 universe, I would cast Billy Burke from NBC's Revolution as O'Neill. His mannerisms in Revolution seem to mesh incredibly well with RDA's. Considering that they have some really vague similarities in appearance, I think he'd be a perfect fit.
Who else would you cast in a SG-1 reboot?
