Guest April 2, 2014 Share April 2, 2014 Because maybe some day they will be again. And we need to start the trend of new threads.No really, its because I need to talk about this again: This is the most surreal foretelling of a TV show I've ever seen.Christopher Judge on MacGyver. But wait, that is not all; and I'm not even talking about the Fade and the Mullet. MacGyver is channeling Sam and teaching physics. MacGyver is channeling Daniel and talking about ancient greeks. There is a chalk drawing on the board with a guy dressed in the costumes of early aliens SG-1 encountered. MacGyver has also drawn a lever system that allows him to move planets, I guess. Is it possible that MacGyver used a stick of gum to split himself and Daniel, Sam, and Jack are all aspects of MacGyver's personality?

Guest April 2, 2014 Share April 2, 2014 He certainly wasn't using that stick of gum to get off the glacier in Solitudes That's because when only two thirds of MacGyver is present, you need a stick of gum and a paper clip. Daniel had the paper clip. I really hated all the MacGyver references on the show. I think it was because Sam got stuck with all of them and they were always so stupid. Sam had all the truly deplorably stupid lines in season 1. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3437-through-the-gate-the-cast-in-other-roles/#findComment-17196
anstar April 2, 2014 Share April 2, 2014 I've been watching Saving Hope (starring Michael Shanks). It started off pretty blah, and I stuck it out strictly for my Daniel. It's gotten pretty good though. In one scene, which was supposed to be powerful and moving, I was shaking my head. Charlie (Shanks) was remembering a time as a child when he witnessed the tragic and violent deaths of both his parents. This one was a car accident, but I kept thinking about the Jacksons, standing under the giant heavy cover stone they were moving.

stillshimpy April 3, 2014 Share April 3, 2014 (edited) Right? But I also think that what we saw in The Game was what Daniel remembered, vs. what really happened. That or the Jacksons were dumb enough to die ironing in the bathtub, what with their stellar survival skills. Also, Cliff Simon was on The Americans as an agent in the Mossad.

stillshimpy September 22, 2014 Share September 22, 2014 Hey there, Little Doc Sighting. Teryl Rothery (Janet Fraser) apparently has a role on Cedar Cover, a series I've personally been catching on Netflix, but that is normally on The Hallmark channel. She looks like a million damn dollars, by the way. Seriously, a super cute haircut and she looks absurdly fit. Plus, she gets one of the better wardrobes on the show and rocks it. I'm not going to lie, it's not a good show. It's beautiful to look at though and it's sort of sweet and gentle. Probably perfect for something to watch when you're nursing a migraine (I've been watching it while working out and I have to admit, it's not making the grade for that) . It's the most scenic show I have ever seen, but it stars Andie McDowell (and the acting talents or lack thereof she sports) . Teryl is great though, and plays the best character. She's in it a fair amount. In one of the weirder casting choices I've ever seen, they also hired the young woman who played Chloe on SGU to play Grace's (that's Teryl's character) daughter. Apparently they had her dye her hair a sort of red, that mostly looks orange (heaven help her) , maybe because she would have been better suited to playing McDowell's daughter? I'm not sure, but whereas Chloe-actress could very believably play Andie McDowell's daughter, she looks a tad odd playing Teryl's daughter. I'd never noticed that Chloe was about a mile tall, but it really stands out in the role. Plus, she made the classic actor mistake of getting a wee bit too thin, which makes her look even taller. Teryl looks great Elyse has looked better (although she is a beautiful young woman regardless, she doesn't suit the hair color and she looks rather angular at present). So since it is filmed in Vancouver, it has a fair number of Stargate actors in it and it really is harmless and sweet (plus, beautiful) , but I can't say I really recommend it. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3437-through-the-gate-the-cast-in-other-roles/#findComment-399173
Idiotboy October 3, 2014 Share October 3, 2014 "Cedar Cover" is like "Stargate: Afterlife" because it seems to be populated with SG characters who bought it in the line of duty. There's lots of Teryl -- which makes everything else bearable, IMO -- but we've also Sheriff Chekhov, Defense Attorney Grodin (SG:A) and now Stalker!Narim ... Chloe died (temporarily) in an SG:U episode, so I guess she fits in there, too. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3437-through-the-gate-the-cast-in-other-roles/#findComment-435060

Idiotboy December 26, 2018 Share December 26, 2018 Speaking of cast members in other roles, Cedar Cove was practically a retirement home for SG-1 veterans. In addition to second-lead Teryl Rothery, it had Garry Chalk (Col. Chekhov), Garwin Sanford (Narim) and Craig Veroni (Dr. Grodin, Stargate Atlantis). Since everyone mentioned bought the farm at some point in their Stargate tenure, it was like Stargate: DOA. Directors Martin Wood and Andy Mikita also dropped anchor there, although it wasn't what you'd call a visually creative show. (Wood, in particular, must have been bored stiff after SG-1, SG:A and Sanctuary.) 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3437-through-the-gate-the-cast-in-other-roles/#findComment-4940441
