Mal ,'Serenity'
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much anything else that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
There's no reason he has to be human and air force, is there? Sure, he probably will, but still.
They do have a history of hiring the hot genre actors to play new System Lords. Maybe they decided the Camulus storyline bore revisiting with another character?
Him aside, I'd like them to expand the team in a way that doesn't seem like filling RDA's shoes. Not another AF person, and certainly not one that takes command from Sam. I'd rather see another Teal'c.
They should bring back Tanith. That would make it even prettier.
OMG this is just like Hot Stove stuff in baseball.
"Dude, we could sign So-and-so, and then trade him to CSI for That Other Dude, and then -- dream team!!"
"But dude, he lives in L.A. -- I think he will take a home town discount from ER before he signs with SG-1."
"No way. SG-1 will throw money and years at him till he says yes. There's no downside here!"
OMG this is just like Hot Stove stuff in baseball.
That's kind of how JJ Abrams treated the ME writing staff.
Fantasy League Genre Show (one actor per show):
Browder as lead, Alyson Hannigan as second lead, Alexis Denisof as science guy with a dark past, Adam Baldwin as the muscle, Jade Leung as disturbed killer girl, Roy Dupuis as villainous mastermind, Peter Wingfield as badass bad guy with shading....
No Gina Torres?
Hmmm, I was trying to limit one per show. I guess I could say she's from Alias or better yet, Cleopatra 2525.
Then again, I already cheated by throwing in Jade Leung from the HK movie series Black Cat. (Yet another La Femme Nikita variation, but probably my favorite iteration.)
I have a feeling this is going to be a "widely known" casting decision and at some point we may have to declare it beyond spoilerfont for the main point of the actor being signed to SG-1.
Not calling for it, mind you, just a hunch on the limits of the power of whitefont.
I'd pick Lena Olin over Wingfield as the badass bad gal with shading.
Steph, you'll do fine with no backstory (or, you know, a nice, general summary). And, you know, if you want to get a feel at all, there are about a kajillion and a half opportunities for the reruns on sci-fi. Oh, and all my squeeing? Purely the actor. Plus, talk about a shot in the arm for the show.
I'm betting USAF or some civilian capacity like Daniel, only what and why? I dunno. But I figure human from Earth.
I'm still just dee-lighted.
They should bring back Tanith.
They so should. It's possible Teal'c missed, yeah?
