December 3, 2005 20:24 - BOBW 26 Con Report

BOBW 26 Con Report
Derry 667 has kindly shared her wonderfully detailed con report from the BOBW 26 Convention in Sydney Australia!

She even went so far as to individually detail her experiences with each actor. The entire report is very funny and very well told.

The highlights of her report include the David Hewlett and Paul McGillion interviews, her meeting David Nykl and the pictures she took with some of the cast.

Here is a quote:

"First off, everything that you've heard about David Hewlett is true. That man is the coolest geek on the planet. He obviously adores the character he plays and professes it wholeheartedly - it seems that he's just surprised that so many others love Rodney as much as he does."

December 3, 2005 20:33 - Interview with Torri Higginson at Gateworld

EXCERPTS:

GW: You have obviously been shooting Season Two for some time now. What do you especially like about this year?

TH: That David Hewlett is in a dressing room farther away from me.

*****************

GW: What are your favorite character dynamics to explore? [Such as] Kavanah or McKay or Zelenka?

TH: Well, I have to say Zelenka because he's sitting right here. [David Nykl laughs] Zelenka is my favorite. I find that just now he's really rich and layered. He's such a talented actor! Best scenes ever! And they're very hot! There's something underlying going on. I don't know.But obviously I do like these scenes with Zelenka a lot. Because there's a camaraderie against McKay. We both like McKay and respect McKay hugely ... but also know what an arrogant know-it-all he can be. There's that shared frustration, which can't be voiced because McKay is usually right.I always love the Sheppard stuff because there's always that, again, that level of respect but conflict, and desire to be supportive of each other but still fighting for your agenda and still fighting for your own power. There is that power play that will always exist between Sheppard and Weir, I think.

December 3, 2005 20:35 - Stargate Just Goes On :)

EXCERPT:

Now in its ninth season, "Stargate SG-1" continues to get better and better. Ben Browder, best known as John Cricthon from Farscape, joins the cast as Lt. Col. Cameron Mitchell, the new leader of SG-1. Claudia Black, who played Aeryn, Critchon's love interest, is also on the show. In a recurring role as Vala, a con artist, her and Michael Shanks have great comic chemistry.

Respected actors Beau Bridges and Louis Gossett, Jr. are also on board. Bridges is Gen. Hank Landry, the new head of Stargate Command. Gossett is Gerak, a Goauld at odds with Teal'c over the Jaffa government.

In its sophomore season, "Atlantis" continues to get better also. Rainbow Sun Francks, who was Lt. Aiden Ford, was on recurring status. He was replaced by Jason Momoa as Ronon, a skilled fighter who is also a Wraith tracker. Best known as FBI Assistant Director Walter Skinner on "The X-Files," Mitch Pileggi has a recurring role as Col. Caldwell, who is in charge of the Daedulus, and always clashes with the Atlantis team.

New episodes for both shows will return next winter. "Atlantis" is already renewed for season three, while "SG-1" will return for season ten. This will make "Stargate SG-1" the longest-running science fiction series in television history, second to "The X-Files." Seasons 1-8 are out on DVD, while season one of "Atlantis" will be out this month. Or, if you can't get enough, then watch "Stargate SG-1" every weekday on the SciFi Channel from the beginning, or catch last season every weekend, the same time you can catch "Stargate Atlantis" freshman season.
