ACTOR MICHAEL WELCH faced a daunting task when he was cast on STARGATE SG-1. With series star Richard Dean Anderson sitting out for most of the episode, Welch was going to play a teenage version of Jack O'Neill ... the SG-1 team leader who wakes up one morning to find himself in a child's body. Season 7's “Fragile Balance“ ended up being a fan favorite, in large part thanks to Welch's performance. Under direction from Peter DeLuise the young actor really nails Jack's attitude and mannerisms. And thanks to a bit of sci-fi twist at the end, the episode closes with both Anderson's Jack and Welch's Jack sharing the screen. “Dial the Gate“ caught up with Michael Welch to talk about his experience on the show 20 years later. This clip is from Dial the Gate's full-length, 80-minute conversation with Michael.
