Well here we are covering an episode of series we always said we wouldn’t do but it is a Stargate property even if it’s not canon so for our 20th bonus show sit back and enjoy the Stargate Infinity premiere episode “Decision”.

Decision

The Stargate Infinity series is set well into the future of the SGC and in “Decision” the base has been infiltrated by a spy working for an alien species, when an Ancient is discovered they attack the base to claim the prize but a group of SG personnel fight back and escape through the gate with the Ancient and the remainder of the series deals with their adventures as they try to find a way home.

Hand on heart I would like to have said more about this series but it does no credit to the television franchise and is best forgotten however you will recognise some of the voice talent used in the series but what a missed opportunity. Thanks to Brad for once again going above and beyond and next week we are going to be taking a look at an episode of Flashpoint starring Michael Shanks, enjoy the rest of the holidays and stay safe over the new year:)

Gatecast Bonus Episode 19 – Stand by Me

Dec 192015
 

Welcome to the latest bonus episode for the 2015 holiday season, this week Alan is joined by Kriss and together they take a look at “Stand by Me” a third season episode of the Canadian medical drama Saving Hope. In this episode which was directed by Michael Shanks the staff of Hope Zion deal with the departure of one of their own and the complexities of medical care for patients not technically allowed access to said care due to their illegal presence in the country. We also get an accidental dosing of LSD which spices things up and Charlie puts his heart on the table and it gets stomped on.

This is Saving Hope S3E4 Stand By Me

SavingHope (24)

Stand By Me featured Lexa Doig as Dr. Selena Quintos and it’s never a bad thing to see her guest starring in a show and her character’s interaction with Joel (Daniel Gillies) was good drama and as you may know led to further complications. The departure of Gavin was nicely handled and the one on one with Maggie was at times heart breaking but it was done well and nice use of some visual effects to enhance the emotion. Overall a good and entertaining episode of Saving Hope which was chosen by Kriss.

Next week we are back for another bonus show and I think I know which it will be, something of a surprise given what we’ve said in the past, stay tuned and feel free to let us know what you think of these bonus shows and the podcast overall:)

Gatecast Bonus Episode 18 – Auto Eurodicka

It’s that time of the year again and we are taking a break from our regular coverage of Stargate and for a few weeks taking a look at shows/episodes which feature the cast and crew of Stargate. This week we are watching Auto Eurodicka which is a third season episode of the US sitcom 3rd Rock From The Sun which features a series regular, recurring and guest actors who have graced Stargate on the big and small screen.
AutoErodicka (6)
In Auto Eurodicka we find Dick Solomon going to watch a movie recommended by Mary Albright, he meets Anita and he quickly enters into a casual sexual relationship with her, being Dick he can’t keep his mouth shut about it and has no shame in sharing the details until in the middle of class he reveals her name and finds that she is the mother to one of his students. Even then Dick needs some education on boundaries with both Mary and Nina giving his a slappin’ but of course Anita’s family played all by the DeLuise’s with Dom as her ex-husband confront Dick and somehow he doesn’t end up in hospital. The “B” plot of the episode deals with Sally and her infatuation with a Dodge Viper and her attempts to acquire the car, of course it’s well out of their price range but as always this “alien” family learn more lessons from their failures and they end the day sitting on the roof beneath the stars with Dick holding a steak to his eye.

Third Rock from the Sun was an excellent American sitcom, I own the DVD boxset and you can dip into the show anywhere you want for a few laughs. As you’ve seen there is plenty of Stargate links in this episode and the series as a whole (thanks to French Stewart) but we also got William Shatner making a very memorable appearance from the fourth season onwards.

Next week we are going to be taking a look at an episode of Saving Hope, this will be discussed by Kriss and Alan so have a listen and let us know what you think. Over the next few weeks we will also be covering Flashpoint, Stargate Infinity and a special episode looking back at SG1.
