I'd pretend like I have lots to say under here but I don't (except that he's totally right that there shouldn't be a love triangle including McKay and Ronon. OTOH, I really think Keller is Ronon's type and I'd LOVE to see them together!) OK, no, what I really want to say is: So, Joe Mallozzi stands up and says "Oh, we didn't DELIBERATELY cast skinny and totally gorgeous girls" for Whispers (the horro episode.) this is how Jason Momoa describes the pitch:
So... as early in the writing process that they didn't even know it was Carson... they knew the "chicks" were going to be hot.
OKAY THEN.
You know what else is funny? Sub in "people of colour" for "aliens" and - ooh, same result! Or, hey, sub in "having ridiculous shit forced on my hair by producers" for "wigs" and you get to include Chris Judge, too! Funny how the only alien who didn't have freaky shit done to his hair was... Corin Nemec. Funny peculiar. (What else is peculiar? Wiki says Nemec's a scientologist. Um. I'm a little squicked out now.)

"Whispers" is a bunch of hot chicks with Paul McGillion and Joe Flanigan. Which originally I heard, when they first started the season, they're like, "Oh, yeah! It's going to be a great episode. It's you, Joe Flanigan, and all these hot chicks!"
I'm like "OK, cool, right on." And then they moved it to Paul.

OKAY THEN.
It's funny ... all the aliens have wigs.
