Production Notes
- "We ended the day with a general discussion of SGU: some future storylines, a couple of surprises, yes there will be a mid-season two-parter, and the types of individuals who will make up the Destiny’s extended crew." — Joseph Mallozzi (November 13, 2008).
- "Today was our final day of spinning on Stargate: Universe and we finished in impressive fashion, breaking not one but TWO stories. The first, episode #10 is mine (Carl is especially excited about this one) while #11 falls to Paul. Ticking clocks, twists and turns, alliances, betrayals, and a surprise guest! And, just like that, we have our first 10 stories in play." — Joseph Mallozzi (November 20, 2008)
- "Paul ... is only two pages into the outline of his episode." — Joseph Mallozzi (January 7, 2009)
- "As for Paul ... He’s patiently awaiting notes on his outline for the second part of the mid-season two-parter. Hopefully, they’ll be coming his way next week." — Joseph Mallozzi (January 30, 2009)
- "Episode #11 is still in its initial outline stage..." — Joseph Mallozzi (February 12, 2009)
- "My writing partner Paul continues work on Divided. According to him, there’s a lot of story and he fears the script may go long. Which would be par for the course." — Joseph Mallozzi (April 23, 2009)
- "Rob will be doing the pass on my script, Space (episode 11), this weekend and informed me of a few character additions he wants to make off the top (which tie in directly to Justice), in addition to a dialogue tweak to the final exchange that had me raising an eyebrow in stunned silence. I love both of these characters, and this little revelation raises the stakes, offering a beautiful segue into the next episode, Divided. Nothing is quite as it seems? Try – No one is quite as they seem. Furtive moves, shifting alliances, and hidden agendas guarantee a dysfunctional and disquieting galaxy-hopping community." — Joseph Mallozzi (April 29, 2009)
- "Paul is really looking forward to it I think, more than anything, for the change of pace after finally completing work on his Stargate Universe, Divided." — Joseph Mallozzi (May 6, 2009)
- "...I did manage to squeeze in some Stargate-related work. Read Paul’s first draft of Divided (loved the Eli-Rush head-to-head)..." — Joseph Mallozzi (May 11, 2009)
- "I was, of course, hyper-vigilant throughout the notes session on ... Paul’s first draft of Divided..." — Joseph Mallozzi (May 13, 2009)
- "Today, we set aside an hour to talk stories – specifically, the back half of SGU’s first season. Okay, okay. I think that, this time, I’ve got it right. Space shoots next in the #11 slot, followed by Divided in the #12 slot, and then Faith in the #13 slot (Carl promises to have his pass out before week’s end)." — Joseph Mallozzi (June 3, 2009)
- "Just read "Divided" great episode!" — Alaina Huffman, Twitter (June 5, 2009)
- "When I left him (Martin [Gero] not Topango), he was in his office ... sprawled out on his couch, catching up on his script-reading (Space, Divided, and Lucid)." — Joseph Mallozzi (June 18, 2009)
- major davis writes: "So how is divided going. I found out a little about divided and who was directing it. I don't know, it looks pretty cool. How is it like working with MR. Felix." Answer: "I was there Friday night for sure....until about 1030 pm.....the directors name is Felix Alcala....he is a great man with a ton of directing experience. I am honoured to be working with him." — James "BamBam" Bamford, Ask BamBam thread on Gateworld Forum (June 23, 2009)
- "And we’re in extreme circumstances. And there have been moments where there’s a bit of a divide. And there’s an episode called “Divided.” There is a big divide and there’s a reconciliation where we’re like, wait a minute, we’re in this together. It’s a relationship, it’s a family." — Alaina Huffman, Blast Magazine interview (July 25, 2009)
- "Yes, producer edits of Space, episode #11, which I wrote, and Divided, episode #12, that Paul wrote. Both are going to be great and while Space will no doubt get the most online buzz in the lead-up to its airdate (for reasons that will become readily apparent as more hints about this episode are released), I think Divided is the one that really sings. It is taut, suspenseful, filled with intrigue, and offers up some terrific dramatic performances by many of our cast." — Joseph Mallozzi (August 7, 2009)
