SGA: S513 Inquisition Behind the Scenes

Stargate franchise owner MGM has posted a behind the scenes look at the episode Inquisition.

Inquisition, written by Alex Levine, fulfilled a very important part of Stargate Atlantis’ final season. Besides exploring the social evolution of the various human populations in the Pegasus galaxy, it was also designed to be a lower-budget episode than normal. The producers were determined to make the second half of the show’s fifth season as big as possible – which meant creating a few shows that would cost less." Read more >>

Stargate Atlantis: S519 Vegas

NBC has released the second last batch of images from the final season of Stargate Atlantis episode Vegas

The ep, set in Los Vegas in the US a long way from Vancouver where the eps were made, the storyline goes, "When another body turns up in the desert outside of Las Vegas, Nevada, Detective John Sheppard (Joe Flanigan) is called in to investigate. Sheppard is a homicide detective, but the murderer he has to hunt down now is unlike anyone -- or any thing -- he has ever seen. Sheppard tries to dodge a news reporter when he arrives at the crime scene. The reporter suggests that, if this victim is like the others, the city may have a serial killer on its hands."

"Chris Judge: It’s always crazy down there. The fan enthusiasm and excitement level is wonderful. It’s just a great atmosphere there. We went down to the MGM booth to sign. I was actually a minute or two late and I was wondering who this huge line was for. I thought it was for Iron Man or something and it was actually for us. It’s still quite overwhelming.

"Is it like one big family reunion when you all get back together?

Oh definitely. I see Ben Browder all the time because our kids go to school together, and he teaches the little league my son plays in. I probably see Ben more than anyone. Michael Shanks and I get together whenever we are both in Vancouver at the same time. It’s great. We never lose touch. It didn’t end because the show ended."

Doctor Who Magazine #401

22 October 2008: Davros, creator of the Daleks is reborn: in Doctor Who Magazine 401!

DWM talks exclusively to the people responsible for Davros’ recent return, including Head Writer Russell T Davies and prosthetics expert Neill Gorton.

Was Russell tempted to use Davros’ revival as a means to finally reinvent and clear up some of his complex backstory, once and for all?

“I never really worried about tying his history together, ”Russell admits, “except I was convinced he had to have a metal hand, because it was so clearly blown off in Revelation of the Daleks.

"So no, I didn’t do any research as such. I didn’t rewatch Genesis, because I wanted to act off my memories. Somehow, that seems a more creative state to be in.

"I did worry that we never had a proper explanation of his injuries, but then realised that Genesis never did that either, so it was good company to be in! Although I did write a sort of creation story”

“There was one scene where you were going to see an explosion, and Davros was injured,” recalls Neill.

Wow, nine has axed Fringe

Wednesdays are now back to a barren wasteland after the nine Network extinguished the one bright light on a Wednesday evening, Criminal Minds, House and Spicks and Specks are of no interest and fail to excite.

Worse, the decision to put a new show into a mix where the fans of Criminal Minds, House and Spicks and Specks are immovable was deadset the dim-wittedest decision I've ever seen from a seemingly mob of intellegent people.

How I found out, I started researching the next Fringe ep on Nine, firstly I went to the Nine TV Guide here and then clicked on Fringe and got here then went over to the online TV guide and found this.

Good on ya nine, you've done it again, if the network expects the Fringe fan to watch it in the Silly Season, think again.

NEW YORK: 16 October 2008: On Friday, 16 January 2009 at 10PM ET/PT, SCI FI's critically acclaimed drama series Battlestar Galactica will return with the remaining episodes of its 4th and final season. The 10-week run will culminate with the series finale on 20 March.

Picking up from last June's jarring cliffhanger – the Colonial fleet and their new Cylon allies led by Admiral Adama and the Galactica crew discover Earth to find it a barren nuclear wasteland – the finale season promises to be rife with drama, action and revelation.

Battlestar Galactica is the gripping saga of humanity's last remnants and their struggle to find a new home while fleeing from their deadly Cylon enemies. Redefining the space opera with its gritty realism, Galactica's intensity, issues-driven topicality, and command performances have garnered it numerous awards, including three Emmys and the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award. The show was twice recognized by the American Film Institute (AFI) as one of the most outstanding programs of the year. The series is executive produced by Ronald D. Moore and David Eick, and the outstanding ensemble cast is led by Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, Tricia Helfer and Grace Park. Source: NBC

Top Ten Illegal Downloads: TV Show

From TorrentFreak.com, "The data presented here is collected by TorrentFreak from a representative sample of BitTorrent sites and is for informational and educational reference only."

Firstly let us reiterate gasbo.net does not believe AusTAM Ratings gives a fair guestimate of who is watching what and when in this country.

Secondly we all now know the suits at the Free TV shops now admit illegal download of popular TV is rampant in this country, what the suits have yet to understand is that whilst one person may illegally download a programme, it is then burnt to DVD and distributed very quickly around the country.

The causes for this are many the hottest is the continual meddling with the schedule.

BBC's Crooked House conjures up a ghostly Christmas

Janice Hadlow, Controller, BBC Four, has commissioned Tiger Aspect Productions to produce Crooked House, a haunting tale of three sumptuous ghost stories woven together for a spooky Christmas treat.

Written by Mark Gatiss ([Wikipedia ] [The League Of Gentlemen]) and directed by Damon Thomas (Beethoven), the duo last collaborated on 2007's critically-acclaimed BBC Four drama The Worst Journey In The World.

Shot in HD, Crooked House boasts a wonderfully diverse cast which includes Julian Rhind-Tutt (Green Wing), Mark Gatiss, Philip Jackson (Margaret Thatcher: The Long Walk To Finchley), Lee Ingleby (George Gently), Jean Marsh (Sense And Sensibility), Samuel Barnett (Beautiful People), Daniela Denby-Ashe (My Family), Anna Madeley (Brideshead Revisited) and, in his debut dramatic role, illusionist Derren Brown as the mysterious Sir Roger Widdowson.

In addition to writing and co-producing the drama, Gatiss takes the role of a museum curator with an in-depth knowledge of the fictional Geap Manor, stretching through Tudor, Georgian, the Twenties and contemporary times.

When school teacher Ben unearths an old door knocker in the garden of his new home, the curator suggests it may come from the now-demolished house. A house reputed to be haunted...

Intrigued, Ben prompts the curator to tell him some of stories about the house and so begins a journey through time.

A corrupt Georgian businessman finds something unexpected in the woodwork of his new home.

In the Twenties, a young couple's happy engagement party is spoiled by the spectre of a ghostly bride.

And, back in the present day, Ben soon finds himself in darker, more dangerous waters than he could possibly have foreseen...

Paul Frift produces Crooked House and Jamie Laurenson is Commissioning Editor for BBC Four. Richard Fell is Executive Producer for Tiger Aspect.

Janice Hadlow says: "There's nothing quite like the thrill of a spooky yarn to warm up a chilly winter evening and BBC Four is the natural home for Mark's clever and witty story."

Mark Gatiss says: "Ever since I was a child and thrilled to the BBC's classic MR James adaptations, I've dreamt of sending a festive shiver down the nation's spine.

"I'm delighted to finally have the opportunity. A fantastic cast and crew have worked incredibly hard to fulfil this long held dream."

Richard Fell added: "The ghost story at Christmas is a much cherished BBC seasonal tradition that Mark's wonderful story has brought back to life.

"Like the best Christmas fare it is replete with rich and sumptuous treats – and not the odd skin crawling surprise."

Jamie Laurenson added: "Evoking the richest traditions of the genre where suspense and suggestion fray our nerves far more than violence or gore, Mark Gatiss's brilliant script plays on the strange compulsion to watch or listen to stories that scare us."

Crooked House was commissioned by Ben Stephenson and Janice Hadlow, and follows in the tradition of BBC Four Christmas ghost stories which include The Haunted Airman, Number 13 and View From A Hill in previous years.

Crooked House joins the stellar canon of drama on BBC Four which includes the Curse Of Comedy season, Marie Lloyd and Margaret Thatcher: Long Walk To Finchley.

Close Up: Kavan Smith chats to MGM

Popular Canadian actor Kavan Smith plays Major Evan Lorne on the almost now defunct MGM scifi series Stargate Atlantis. The handsome actor's origins on the Stargate franchise go back to 2003 when he popped up on the Stargate SG-1 episode Enemy Mine. He was never far away from the thoughts of the Stargate fan and eventually found his way onto Stargate Atlantis much to the delight of the fan.

MGM has posted a piece about Mr Smilth and how he got where he is today on the franchise, says MGM, "He has presented a solid, quiet and reassuring presence in Stargate Atlantis since the show’s second season. But what many viewers may not know is that Evan Lorne’s history with Stargate Command – and that of actor Kavan Smith – goes back far further than that. Way back, in fact, to before even Stargate SG-1 had hit the screen. Kavan Smith “Going way, way back, I was actually up for Michael Shanks’ role in the original series,” Smith explains, speaking, rather ironically, from a seat inside the disused Stargate SG-1 gateroom set. “So I knew some of the producers, and particularly Richard Dean Anderson’s partner Michael Greenburg. He was always looking for a way to get me on the show.” Read more

Stargate Atlantis Set Demolished

In a brief report yesterday the Vancouver Sun said the Stargate Atlantis set at Bridge Studios in Vancouver Canada is being demolished. Bridge Studios was the home of the Stargate franchise scripted series' for most of it's run and of course still is with the upcoming Stargate Universe and the Stargate (SG-1) and Stargate Atlantis direct to DVD films.

From the Sun, "Bridge Studios general manager Ron Hryniuk -- say Her-nik -- isn't sorry to say goodbye to a show that produced some 100 episodes on six of his sound stages, as well as twice that number for the predecessor Stargate SG-1 series. That's because the SCI FI Channel and MGM Television recently announced the launch of a new "science fiction" series called Stargate Universe, saying "Its great news. Fantastic," Hryniuk said of a show that will premiere as a two-hour movie on SCI FI and become a weekly one-hour series next summer".

"In a press release Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis co-creators Brad Wright and Rob Cooper said Stargate Universe "will break new ground in relationships between mostly young and desperate explorers, thrust together and far from home."
