SciFi Wire Releases Information on SG-1‘s Landmark 200th Episode
SCI FI Wire‘s News Editor Patrick Lee has released information concerning a special guest appearance for Stargate SG-1‘s 200th episode, 10.06 “200”. Beware of spoilers:
Anderson Returns To SG-1
Richard Dean Anderson, former star and executive producer of Stargate SG-1, returns to the series for its historic 200th original episode, SCI FI Channel announced. Production on the bicentennial episode begins April 5 in Vancouver, Canada. Anderson, who will be reprising the role of Gen. Jack O’Neill, will also make special guest appearances in a number of episodes of both SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis that will air in the upcoming new seasons, which are slated to premiere this summer.
Stargate SG-1’s 200th episode, “200,” will center on the SG-1 team as they serve as advisors on a television series that bears remarkable similarities to the goings-on at Stargate Command. As they pitch to the producer the many adventures that they have been involved with over the years, the team discovers that truth really is stranger than fiction, but that nothing is stranger than the machinations of Hollywood. In addition to Anderson, “200” will feature a guest appearance by fan favorite Willie Garson (Sex & the City).
Currently in production on its 10th original season (its fifth on SCI FI), Stargate SG-1 is now the longest-running SF series on American television, surpassing The X-Files and every iteration of Star Trek.
Executive-produced by Robert C. Cooper and co-creator Brad Wright, Stargate SG-1 stars Ben Browder, Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, Michael Shanks, Claudia Black and Beau Bridges. SG-1 is produced by Double Secret Productions, in association with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. and Sony Pictures Television.
Willie Garson played Martin Lloyd, the alien fugitive who made “Wormhole X-Treme”, and he will be reprising his role in “200”.

Oh my god, I can’t believe they’re redoing Wormhole X-treme. What a travesty. Martin Lloyd is one of the worst characters in SG-1 history.
I’ll be very glad to see Jack, but not if it means more doe eyes and lame innuendo.
I’m so happy Jack’s coming back!! I hope they do it right and not make it out to be a joke or try to pair him with Sam 😛
I’m a little leery about the 200th episode, “Wormhole X-treme” was kind of annoying, I hope this one is better!!
So, for a while, the note from RDA on his fansite, rdanderson.com, had that he has a contract for five episodes in S10. That announcement got taken off the site for the time being, but not soon enough for GW and fans on the forums to see it.
Basically, RDA suggested that he return for five episodes to give the writers a chance to tie up loose ends.
I hope this doesn’t mean what I think it means.
Wormhole extreme was o.k. eye hope this one comes out o.k. .you dont want to see the 200 become a laughing stock. after these lose ends that R.D.A. will be doing is this the last we will see of him on SG-1 and ATLANTIS???/
