It's a stargate. They'd use USB-C but still explode if you put in in the wrong way round.

JediTalentAgent posted:This is more a comedy/procedural thing: It's not unheard of for popular shows to get international market remakes. Can you give me an example of an American show getting remade for a foreign market? I can't think of any. I can think of several British shows that got remade for the American market. There was a whole Russian Stargate arc in SG:1, but that wouldn't play very well these days. An EU based SGC would be pretty cool.

There's even a statue of the Russian Al Bundy in like Yekaterinburg, which is a helluva thing to learn from a show about the Dyatlov Pass Incident.

I'll admit the _____-to-US pipeline is more active, but shows like Law and Order got a UK remake, and there's now a Canadian-set series in the works I'm suspecting is for the CA audience. There was also some documentary several years ago about an attempt to remake Everyone Loves Raymond for the Russian market, I think. Breaking Bad has recently gotten a foreign remake, too. Korea seems to be doing a few remakes of Western shows, from what I can tell (Suits, Criminal Minds, Entourage).

No, I was just guessing.

No I'm pretty sure you're right and he had a stalker-ish arc as well. Apparently it was in the Osiris episode where Daniel's old advisor died.

He not only followed her (and ruined a stake out), but he also called a cop buddy to look up Sam. Even though she told him she was working on classified stuff and couldn't tell him anything.

redshirt posted:He bought them a house without even discussing it with her. So weird! Yeah, that was super creep. Forgot about that bit. One fun but of trivia is that the actor who played Pete is a DeLuise. The entire DeLuise clan was involved with Stargate, thanks to Peter. Of course Dom played Urgo, so fantastic. Dom's son Peter directed a bunch of Stargate episodes: SG-1, Atlantis & even some Universe. He was also a producer and creative consultant on them. I think he's even on screen in an episode or two. David DeLuise played stalker cop Pete. Michael DeLuise played the actor portraying Jack in Wormhole Extreme!

Peter DeLuise directed a ton of episodes I think, like maybe the most? But then there's Pete (David). He had some superficial charm, but the creeper behavior was way over the top. And frankly, he wasn't good enough for Sam.

Also, I know there's only so many actors in the greater Vancouver region, but really, you couldn't hire a different actor to play Dr. Weir's husband than the guy who played the Tollan Narim? The guy who had a puppy dog crush on Sam? Very jarring to see him on SGA.

Aragosta posted:Yeah, that bothered me too. There's a few other double casts (same actor playing different characters), but none of them popped out like Narim. Like, he was pretty well known on SG-1. As opposed to the one computer expert on that planet where computers run everything and they don't really understand how it works. The lead guy there plays a lead Althosian on Atlantis, but both are pretty small, non-important roles. Narim was our main Tollan guy. And sorta creeper on Sam.

i got up to the hathor episode. from the heart of darkness to the hathor episode all the episodes were pretty good. hathor is the 3rd worst episode so far but it isnt as bad as the heart of darkness one. the mongol stays in the worst episode slot. but im sure she is going to be a reoccuring villian considering she got away to teal'cs homeworld snergle fucked around with this message at 00:03 on Sep 2, 2023 |

End of season 4 and start of season 5 is where they really let RDA go wild with his performances. So many little facial expressions and comments. You really get the sense he's an old dude who's just kind of done with playing the nice colonel

Lots of Trek actors had parts on SG:1 I loved Troi's role as bigwig Russian scientist in charge of the secret Gate program. But needs help. And Daniel Jackson is super snarky.

Watching Between Two Fires now. Massive fan of Sam opening her palm for the holographic projection, and then turning the disk so it's facing her. There's no need to do that - it's obviously all CGI - but it's a little touch that makes it feel real.
