Stargate stuff:

I'm a bit miffed at the scheduling change for Stargate SG-1. Two reasons -- I did harbor the vague desire to watch Joan of Arcardia for the rest of the season. More importantly? A few months ago, I rescheduled my job around the 9 p.m. time. There are two night shifts that can be worked (on drive-through). One is until 11ish, the other until 8ish. I requested the earlier shift on Fridays specifically so that I could get home before SG-1 started and could record it without commercials. This plan is now clearly useless.

So, bad Sci-Fi. No cookie.

But all that aside, I am very much looking forward to the rest of the season.

So, the primary change in my AU is that Daniel is a chick (Abigail). This changes quite a bit, partly because of one huge thing that it changes -- Abigail doesn't marry Sha'uri. Because of that, I've had Abigail return to Earth with Jack. Because of that, the Stargate program (Research and Defense) starts six months before it does in 'our' reality. Which means that they had six months of exploration before Apophis came knocking. Which means a number of other things -- the timeline is completely different because some planets were chosen because they're just next and some are chosen because of a Goa'uld related reason.

Example: The Broca Divide still happened at the same time, timewise, but other missions (like Thor's Hammer) that in our canon occurred after that would have happened first, because BD was chosen based on info that the escaped people from Chulak gave to the SGC.

And as Teal'c can't be a member of the team before they meet him, the Cimmeria encounter itself would be completely different.

Trying to figure out what goes where is a lot of fun.

Actually, this is something I wanted to make sure that I explained (partly because the canon AUs didn't). Abigail returns with Jack to Earth and then she spends seveal months working with Catherine and the Pentagon to get permission to return to Abydos to study it (she meets Davis and Sam a bit earlier in this reality). They pretty much hit full-bore with humanitarian concerns re: the Abydonians that were in slavery to their 'God' Ra. So, Abigail goes back to Abydos with a team and studies the place, thus finding the cartouche and DHD.
