Sam has her newly delivered ACME Road Runner Kit but alas no instruction manual. ACME was mentioned when we recording the episode so I thought I would have a little fun, I am no artist hence the pretty weak cut and paste job:)
Thanks to Kavin for posting this youtube video to the Facebook page and kudos the guys behind the construction and video sequence.

Also on the 28th we celebrate the birthdays of Katie Findlay who played Ellie in two episodes of Stargate Universe as well as having a starring role in the US version of The Killing. IMDB Tumblr
Kirby Morrow also has his birthday today, he has guest starred once in Stargate Universe and twice in Stargate SG1 with an eight episode recurring role in Stargate Atlantis as Captain Dave Kleinman. He is a familiar face but perhaps better known for his extensive voice work resume. IMDB
Danielle Nicolet who played Reese in the Stargate SG1 episode “Menace” is in an upcoming new sitcom called “The Family Tools” on the ABC network, also stars Kyle Bornheimer, JK Simmons and Edi Gathegin and is based on a British show.
Just add some imagination, hard work and a love for the show and Lego proves to be so versatile, love the MALP:)
Excellent news coming out of the Canadian broadcaster Showcase, they have renewed Continuum for a second season so more work for our favourite group of genre actors in North America. Perhaps more importantly the story will continue as the future remains in the balance and the fate of the human race rocks precariously.

Topless Robot – Nerd news, humor and self-loathing
Thanks to Topless Robot and @StargateAtlas for bringing this lego goodness to our attention.
Daniel begins having very vivid dreams of his early days with Sarah Gardner when he was primarily a researcher and in these dreams he is studying the tablet which tells of the Lost City of the Ancients. The dreams also allow him to re-experience their budding relationship and maybe not to make the same mistakes but it seems this Sarah is much more understanding, Daniels attempts to translate the table being more important than missing a dinner date. Meanwhile Sam is dating Pete Shanahan a detective she met via her brother and things are progressing well, Sam too to heart the events she lived through on board the Prometheus.
Chimera is very good episode which ties in long standing characters and arc while introducing a significant other in the form of a serious love interest for Sam, one that not only survives their first encounters but also she believes is capable of accepting and supporting her career. The return of Sarah Gardner aka Osiris is well done which again makes use of the stolen Asgard technology to make it possible, we seriously begin to wonder how much more powerful Anubis can be and if he has already integrated all of the Asgard tech stolen from the mind of Thor and the information gleamed from Jonas.
Chimera gave us some important road marks on the path to the stage of Stargate SG1 and the overall franchise, the final appearance of Sarah Gardner and the demise of another former System Lord. Sam finally growing beyond her own enforced belief that she is defined by her work and also noting Jacks total acceptance of the fact. Teal’s likes his donuts and Daniel sees the discovery of the Lost City worth risking his life for.
This weeks promo is from The Scifi Diner and next week we are discussing the episode “Death Knell” another strong Sam episode along with again significant movement in the overall arcs. Join us and let us know what you think of the show and of the Stargate series/episodes we cover.

Last but not least Happy Birthday to Colby Johannson another two time Stargate actor who played Lt Kagan in Stargate Atlantis “Phantoms” and SF Sergeant Finney in SG1 “Prometheus”. IMDB
An interesting marriage of show footage and new live action scripted footage, well mixed and allows for a quicker turnabout of content, smart.

Birthday best wishes to Kwesi Ameyaw who appeared in one episode of Stargate Atlantis “Outcast” and two episodes of SG1 “Last Stand” & “Summit”.
