News Notes

Stargate Universe News

  • Actors…Beyond the Event Horizon – Louis Ferreira has been added to this exclusive Solutions feature! More SGU actor pages will be added over the next few weeks.
  • SGU and Social Media – Forbes Blog: Stargate Universe Beats Snooki … On New Social Network TV Charts
  • Jonas Quinn as a member of SG-1Jonas Quinn Fans! – Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi had stated in an earlier weblog entry that there was supposed to be a mention of Jonas Quinn in last week’s episode “Seizure.” SG-1 fans who tuned in to find out what has become of the former team member were disappointed! No mention at all was made, although we do know that his home world survived the Ori invasion. In response to fans’ disappointment and questions whether or not it was even considered to mention Jonas, Mallozzi wrote, “Yes, in fact I gave a note at the script stage that, at the very least, some mention should be made about the fact that Jonas Quinn had retired from public office. Don’t know what happened but it obviously didn’t make it onscreen.”

David Hewlett On Returning To Stargate

McKay on Stargate UniverseDr. Rodney McKay returns to Stargate this week with a guest appearance on Stargate Universe, and TVSquad took the opportunity to interview actor David Hewlett about that experience, his views of why SGU didn’t succeed in the ratings, and what he’s up to now. He lets his geek flag fly when speaking of why Rodney McKay is a fan favorite:

I always feel like there’s a little bit of McKay in everybody. Everybody wants to be the guy who has the answers and who isn’t afraid to admit that he’s a genius, social niceties be damned! I mean I love science fiction because it takes me out of this world. And with McKay, he’s the scientist who has spent his entire life reading about this stuff and now he’s getting to live it. In a way that’s what all of us want. We’ve done the reading, we’ve done the research, we’ve done the dreaming, and we want to be McKay — we want to be the guy who saves the day because we know all this stuff. We want all this nerd-dom to pay off. And McKay is the resulting image, he’s the iconic figure of the nerd who’s done his homework and now he gets to go off and save the universe.

David was his usual perky self throughout the interview, so it’s well worth a read over at TVSquad!

Notes

  1. “Just got the live+7 numbers for Intervention, the season 2 premiere. Wow. We jumped 78% from the live number, about 40% from the liv+SD. That’s a lot of eyeballs. Of course that isn’t even counting those who are viewing the show through alternate platforms (ie. netflix, iTunes, and other download options).” — Joseph Mallozzi, October 19, 2010.
  2. “The ratings of the back half of season 2 will have absolutely no bearing on whether or not Brad and co. proceed with movies.” — Joseph Mallozzi, March 5, 2011.

Stargate Universe: 2.15 "Seizure" (Atlantis Crossover)

Robert Picardo as Richard WoolseyDavid Hewlett as Dr. Rodney McKay

Richard Woolsey and Dr. Rodney McKay are involved in politics
and science in SEIZURE

Tonight at 10 PM ET on Syfy—and later this week in Canada and Australia—is Stargate Universe episode 2.15 “Seizure,” written by Remi Aubuchon and directed by Helen Shaver.

This episode has been called the “Atlantis Crossover” because David Hewlett and Robert Picardo guest star as Dr. Rodney McKay and Richard Woolsey, respectively, but the city of Atlantis is not being highlighted in the story. Instead, the planet Langara is visited by McKay, Woolsey, and Col. David Telford as they negotiate to use the planet’s naquadria-powered Stargate to send supplies to Destiny. This planet’s name should sound familiar to SG-1’s Jonas Quinn/Corin Nemec fans, as this is the former team member’s home world. Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi stated that “there should be” a mention of what has become of Quinn after his world was overtaken by the Ori in the SG-1 episode 10.07 “Counterstrike.”

Langaran Stargate
Langara's Stargate Facility (MGM)
Another major guest star in tonight’s episode is Victor Garber (Alias, Titanic), acclaimed stage and film actor, who portrays Langaran Ambassador Ovirda. The Langarans as a whole have recovered from the Ori War, and have even built a more elaborate facility in which to house their Stargate, but Ovirda is wary of Earth’s use of their Stargate to dial the ninth chevron because, admittedly, the previous uses of a planet’s naquadria core have resulted in utter destruction! To mount even greater tension is the threat of the Lucian Alliance who may also wish to use the Langaran Stargate to invade Destiny.

It’s a jam-packed episode that is sure to touch on much of the mythology of the entire franchise, including the newest storyline concerning Amanda Perry and Ginn, who are now part of the crew as avatars! After viewing, make sure to rejoin us here for our episode poll on the front page.

Stargate Universe: 2.14 "Hope"

Stargate Universe Hope
Greer and Volker share a moment and more in HOPE.
Tonight at 10 PM ET on Syfy—and later this week in Canada and Australia—is Stargate Universe episode 2.14 “Hope,” written by Carl Binder.

Last week, we were left hanging—along with the crew—as to whether or not Senator Michaels and Dr. Andrew Covel were able to disarm the naquadria-enhanced bomb that the Lucian Alliance crashed into Homeworld Command in Washington, D.C. Someone is sitting in the communication room awaiting word from Earth, but after the radiation leak and Covel’s fooling around with the stones’ programming, further links might not even be possible.

And this problem couldn’t have had come at a worse time.

“Rob Cooper had an idea about what would our characters do if they had a serious medical emergency onboard Destiny,” writer Carl Binder explained in an interview with SciFi and TV Talk Blog. “This episode follows one in which there is a problem with the communication stones and they lose contact with Earth for a while. Now we have a situation in which one of Destiny‘s crew needs a major operation, but without the stones there’s no way to connect to Earth and get a doctor to take over and perform the operation, so T.J. has to do it.

“Meanwhile, there’s a second story unfolding at the same time involving a member of the Lucian Alliance and something that happened in an earlier story this season, ‘Malice.'”

Extraordinary things happen when extraordinary technology is involved, and tonight’s story highlights that very well. Tune in tonight to see how the Destiny crew must cope in life and death situations while totally cut off from Earth and then make sure to rejoin us here for our episode poll on the front page.

Calendar

Monday,   March 28 Stargate Universe on Syfy at 10 PM ET with “Hope.”

Showcase EndgameMichael Shanks guest stars tonight at 10 PM ET/PT in the episode “The Caffeine Hit” of Canada’s new Showcase show Endgame. One of Stargate‘s guest stars is part of the regular cast, Veena Sood, who’s played an Abydonian and Dr. Kelly in episodes of SG-1. The show centers around the Russian-born former World Chess Champion Arkady Balagan, who, after witnessing the assassination of his fiancée and her high school friend in Vancouver, has become agoraphobic. He doesn’t leave the hotel where he lives. Such a life has caused him to amass a debt, so as a way to earn money, he uses his brilliant mind to solve mysteries. He has friends and associates, many who manage or work in the hotel in which he lives, who help him in his investigations. In “The Caffeine Hit,” Shanks plays “a desperate amnesiac” for whom Balagan “begins to unravel the man’s complicated identity.” When Shanks told his official website (MSOL) about the role, he mentioned that his character Casey Roman “finds out he may have been a real asshole.” MSOL has images of Shanks in his role as Roman in their gallery, but beware of spoilers! The episode will repeat on Thursday and Sunday. Visit their official website for more details.

Jason Momoa as Conan

Jason Momoa will receive the 2011 CinemaCon Rising Star Award at the Caesars Palace in Las Vegas tonight. CinemaCon managing director Mitch Neuhauser said, “Bringing with him an already loyal fanbase from Stargate: Atlantis, Jason Momoa is sure to entertain audiences in the action adventure Conan the Barbarian. We can’t wait to see what this new leading action star will do in the future.” Not only does Momoa have the starring role in Conan the Barbarian, but he also has a recurring role in HBO’s new Game of Thrones series that will be premiering April 17. You’ll find links of interest for Momoa’s projects here at Solutions on his homepage in our Actors…Beyond the Event Horizon feature.
Friday,     April 1 Lou Diamond PhillipsLou Diamond Phillips is the host of a new franchise on the Military Channel that premieres tonight: An Officer and a Movie. Per the Military Channel’s press release, each installment “pairs Phillips with retired and active duty officers who lived through major battles or have an expertise in the conflicts depicted in notable Hollywood films. As each film makes its Military Channel premiere, AN OFFICER AND A MOVIE provides expert commentary that can only come from being ‘on the ground’ during the action as these officers reflect on the themes of that night’s film and also provide personal insight that puts each movie into a modern context.” In tonight’s movie at 8 PM ET, Phillips and retired Marine Col. Arthur Athens “discuss the themes behind the 1979 classic film The Great Santini, starring Robert Duvall, who was nominated for an Academy Award for this role. As the director of the U.S. Naval Academy’s Vice Admiral James B. Stockdale Center for Ethical Leadership, the former Commandant of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, Athens is uniquely able to comment on what it means to be a leader in the military and within a family’s home, where in his own life he has ten children.” For more on the airing schedule, visit http://military.discovery.com/.
Saturday,   April 2
Sunday,    April 3 HBO Game of Thrones PosterHBO will be airing a preview of Game of Thrones tonight at 9 PM ET. If you miss it, it will be available afterwards online and on demand.

[spoiler intro=”Answer to the Stargate Trivia Question Posed Monday, March 21″]“As Brad pointed out, the actor playing the part of Dr. Andrew Covel in episode #213 brings to four the number of guest stars who also appeared in the original Stargate movie.” — Joseph Mallozzi, August 20, 2010

Who are the four people who played in the original Stargate movie that have also appeared in Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, or Stargate Universe episodes?

If you said Erick Avari, Alexis Cruz, Richard Kind, and French Stewart, you’re correct! Avari and Cruz actually reprised their original movie roles as the Abydonians Kasuf and his son Skaara, respectively, in several Stargate SG-1 episodes. Richard Kind, who played Lucius Lavin in two Stargate Atlantis episodes, played Dr. Gary Meyers in the movie. It was Meyer’s coverstone translation of “doorway to heaven” that was replaced on the blackboard with “Stargate” by Dr. Daniel Jackson. French Stewart played Louis Ferretti who was one of the survivors of the first trip through the Stargate to Abydos and who was portrayed by Brent Stait in Stargate SG-1. Stewart played Dr. Andrew Covel in this week’s episode of Stargate Universe.

Thanks to Lt.Colonel John Sheppard and chevron9ine for playing along with us! [/spoiler]
