avatar2 Welcome to the wrap up show for the eighth season of Stargate SG1.
We didn’t get a third voice for this show so we both did our best and thanks to Brad for sending in some audio comments about the episodes which I spliced in through out the show.
It’s been a good season for SG1 with some very strong episodes particularly the second half of the season and that may have been the result in the belief they were wrapping up the show with the option of an unrealised Stargate Command series as another spin off. What ever happened or didn’t we are left with some stunning episodes both in terms of drama, action and humour with an ever increasing style and production value to the show despite tighter shooting schedules and budget restraints.

MétalHurlantChronicles

I watched the six episodes from the live action series Metal Hurlant Chronicles adapted from the comic book and was pleasantly surprised to see our own Joe Flanigan in the final episode “Master of Destiny” playing Hondo. He co-stars with the ever gorgeous Kelly Brook and together they do kinda spread chaos throughout the galaxy in an impressive montage. As with all the Metal Hurlant stories there is a twist and even when you can see it coming the stories are still entertaining and short enough to simply watch whenever you have a half hour to kill.

The Blu-ray and DVD of the first season can be bought from Amazon France.

I’ve just watched the episode “Ruthless” the twelfth episode of the first season of Motive a show that has finished it’s run in Canada but is now airing in the US and the UK.

In tonight’s episode there are quite a few guest actors who have appeared in various Stargate shows not counting any of the regular cast of Motive so I wonder how many you recognise and do you know the Stargate episodes they were in:)

I’m catching up on my Motive the hit Canadian crime drama and the episode I watched “Brute Force” starred Adrian Holmes the Welsh born actor who is a well recognised name in both movies and television. Adrian plays Mark ‘Machine’ Mason the victim in this episode of Motive and as is the style we see him in flashback looking good in and out of the boxing ring which is no surprise given it’s a passion of  his. Adrian can be seen in the upcoming Elysium and Debug and had recent guest roles on Arrow, Cult and further back two episodes of Stargate SG1.

TV Spot – Christopher Heyerdahl

Christopher Heyerdahl made his requisite guest starring role on Vegas in the episode Unfinished Business playing Cal Sprouse which aired May the 3rd on CBS. Alas the series has been cancelled after one season and now I’ve only the season/series finale left to watch and it’s a bit of a shame, Vegas had an excellent cast and production quality.

Gatecast 175 SG1 Prometheus Unbound

avatar2 General Hammond takes command of the Prometheus on a mission to Pegasus to discover the fate of the Atlantis expedition who have now been out of contact far longer than they would have preferred. Hammond overrides Jack’s objections and takes Daniel and Walter on the mission and before they even leave the Milky Way galaxy they find two damaged Gouald ships. It is of course a trap and the Prometheus is taken over by a single Kull warrior with the crew stranded on the damaged ships as the Prometheus with Daniel on board flies away. The mystery is revealed when the warrior turns out to be a young woman named Vala Mal Doran who is stealing the ship to help her people but a now imprisoned Daniel soon learns that Vala says a lot of things that are not entirely true. Prometheus Unbound is a wonderful episode, it was initially designed as a bottle show to save some money using a small cast and the standing sets but the production was getting such good results extra money was provided to create the CGI which really added the icing to the story. The introduction of Vala and the casting of Claudia Black was inspired even if she had just been a one off character but we know she returns to work her wicked ways on Daniel and later to grace the SGC.

Once again it was great to see Don S. Davis return as Hammond and yes again as a guest star he seems to be getting better roles which allows him to push his character, great chemistry as always. Huge praise to Claudia who only worked on the episode for three days (flew from Australia) who grabbed the role and made it her own including adding her own little touches and while Novak ( Ellie Harvie ) seemed a strange role it all worked out ok.

I’ve played a little of the game during my lunch break at work on the ipad and allowing for the touch screen and not being a youngster I’ve enjoyed it. Here are a few screenshots taken early on in the first episode of this multipart story.
