It's your sentence I don't get - something is missing so that there is a problem in structure and consequently in understanding - all in all I can't translate your sentence.

Just watched this again tonight. Michael Welch was fantastic. So many little mannerisms that were so Jack O'Neill, he did well. Re-watching this series reminds me of how I miss this type of sc-fi in todays TV.
It would be great to be able to use him as a young Jack O'Neill in a new series. there would be something familiar but something new since his life would have possibly taken a different path.

Michael Welch no longer looks like a young Jack. For one, he's about 4" shorter than RDA, and for two, he only had brown eyes in this episode because he wore special contacts.
It would be a pity to place him in a role that didn't take full advantage of his beautiful blue eyes.

Couldn't for the life of me remember what this episode was about -- literally not a clue, right up to the point where I choose it from the DVD menu and I saw the chapter-choices, and there I was like "Oh, the young Jack one -- right..."
So yeah... some lasting impression this one had, I guess. Or simply that I have only seen it like three times now because I quite like it. It's a fun episode, more or less Earth based, exploring a little more Asgard and bringing in some alien abductions. And putting a fun spin on it with Clone!Jack. Michael Welch did an amazing job picking up on Rick's mannerism for Jack O'Neill. He 'cloned' them better than Loki cloned his character.
How would you rate SG-1's "Fragile Balance?"

I thought this was a good episode, but was upset with the ending of young Jack being dropped off at high school. He has all of older Jack's experiences and memories that he has to take with him into whatever direction his life takes, and he has also lost all of the friends and people he cared about at the SGC and anywhere else, because he can have no contact with them. He knows all about the Stargate program, but can't do anything with that information. It's beyond horribly unfair to him and will likely cause all sorts of emotional problems down the road.

This one might have been too long for most of you to do the quiz-bit, but well... life is unpredictable and mine certainly has been rattled something fierce this 2019.
