It will be nice to see Rachel on TV again. I've often wondered about the decisions by TPTB to "standardize" the look of Teyla - making her skin appear lighter and giving her a less ethnic - frankly, less interesting - look with the wigs and the "Americanized" make-up. Rachel is such a naturally beautiful woman and I can't help but think that natural beauty would have resulted in a much different effect for the character. Thankfully, the SGA fandom writers have been kinder to Teyla. Do you have a favorite Teyla-centric fic?
In my search for images, I ran across this flickr gallery. The photographer has disabled downloading, but I thought I'd share since I'd never seen these photos before.
