Star Trek: Voyager<\/em> star Kate Mulgrew has a new 15-minute series called NTSF:SD:SUV<\/em> (National Terrorism Strike Force: San Diego: Sport Utility Vehicle). It’s part of Adult Swim that shares channel space with Cartoon Network nightly between 9:00 pm to 6:00 am ET\/PT. Here’s a snippet of the interview Mulgrew did about her new series in which her Voyager<\/em> co-star and Stargate alum ROBERT PICARDO<\/strong><\/a> guest starred recently:<\/p>\n

In \u201cTwistin\u2019 the Night Away,\u201d the actress had the pleasure of being reunited with one of her former Star Trek: Voyager costars, Robert Picardo, who played U.S.S. Voyager\u2019s Holographic Doctor. \u201cThat was my call. I was sitting next to Paul Scheer and [series executive producer\/writer John Stern] and overheard them saying that they needed a guest-star who could play a really creepy character,\u201d recalls Mulgrew. \u201cI told them, \u2018I know him. He\u2019s one of my best friends – Bob Picardo. They both said, \u2018Yes! Can you call him?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI called Bob right then and there. He came in the next day and was perfect. The thing is, Paul will do that all the time, which is one of the reasons why I love him. Any idea is a good idea and he\u2019ll embrace it. At one point I suggested to Paul, \u2018You should get all the Star Trek guys in here. It would be a riot,\u2019 and he said, \u2018You\u2019re absolutely right.\u2019 It\u2019s a very collaborative set. It has a wonderful old spirit, you know, because we\u2019re not talking about trillions of dollars here. We\u2019re talking about a collaborative effort to make people really laugh.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
