Fifteen years ago tonight the US pay television broadcaster Showtime did the world a huge favour by premièring it’s new serialised scifi series Stargate SG1 to it’s pay audience. I suspect back then this was quite a significant step for the subscription service which underlines how good a product Brad Wright and Jonathan Glassner put together not to mention strengthened by the work of Rob C Cooper, Peter DeLuise and many many other “heroes” of the show:)
“Sunday’s two-hour premiere episode of the MGM Worldwide TV Group series “Stargate SG-1” generated for Showtime’s highest-ever ratings for a series premiere and ranks as the highest-rated original movie to premiere on Showtime in 3-1/2 years, according to the network.
It was learned through Nielsen that “Stargate” on Sunday tallied a healthy 10.5 rating in Showtime’s approximately 12 million U.S. households, or just shy of 1.5 million homes in total.“

Hands up who wouldn’t want this on top of their wedding cake?
Yeah ok I know maybe even out of the scifi community 90% of men and 99% of women wouldn’t but there is no reason the bride and groom couldn’t be placed in the tableau as well:)
I suspect that the 10% of men wouldn’t admit it either, they are not fools!
Thanks to Kyrdece for posting and atlantis-tv for tweeting.

The new Stargate Command app is out now for the Apple devices via the usual methods, I got mine via the ipad app portal and it’s currently free which is fair since it’s still a basic product but has huge potential, loving it:)

It was great to see Jay Acovone who had played Kawalsky in Stargate SG1 guest starring in the season five premiere of Leverage the other night, as former CIA operative he seemed just about spot on for the role he was playing.

Now this is a very clever idea in taking the London Underground basic layout and using that as a map for the Gate system, thanks to @StargateAtlas for the tweet and props to the original artist Jagna-Q7.

We are still having itunes issues which started with some listeners reporting our feed was not updating having stopped around the season six finale, adding or re-adding the feed manually seemed to have fixed that but last week our podcast vanished from the itunes podcast store.
We’ve heard from itunes (emailed them) and the answer wasn’t exactly clear and straight forward but we’ll re-submit the cast in a week or so and see what happens. Thanks for sticking with us and there is nothing preventing the manual addition of our feed to a podcatcher even itunes although not sure how to do it with the recently released Apple Podcast app for iOS devices.

Jamil Walker Smith (Sgt Greer from Stargate Universe) has a movie out today which he wrote and directed, it’s called The American Dream and there are a few familiar faces as well. There isn’t a theatrical release but it’s getting a synched DVD and VOD release on an appropriate day.

On this day back in 2008 Don S. Davis passed away aged 65.
His acting career spanned nearly a quarter of a century predominantly working in television both in series and tv movies but he will be forever known as General George Hammond from Stargate SG1. That said for me I know him as Scully’s father from The X-Files as well as Major Briggs from Twin Peaks, it has to be said that Don played the military man rather well drawing from his own time in the US armed forces.
You won’t find anyone with a bad word for Don S Davis and the warmth that’s generated towards him from those he worked with on SG1 is obvious from every interview ever given before and since his passing.

There is so much fantastic content out there from fans of the Stargate franchise it’s so easy to miss some of their great work and this is an example, nearly 4 years old but first time I’ve seen it.
