Amendola, a veteran character actor, added that his character, a mentor to Teal’c (Christopher Judge), will appear several times during year nine. “Last season, primarily, our enemy had been destroyed,” he said. “The war essentially ended. And now it’s a question of how do you make the peace? And how do you make the peace when you’ve be warring with each other, as factions, for thousands of years and only came together to defeat a common enemy? Now that the enemy is gone, how do you maintain the peace? How do you create a governance? It’s very timely. I’ve already gone up to Vancouver and done two episodes, and the scripts were excellent. And I’ll be going up again in August to do some more work.” Stargate SG-1 returns July 15 and will air Fridays at 8 p.m. ET/PT, followed by Stargate Atlantis at 9 and Battlestar Galactica at 10.
This is one of the reasons I love science fiction and fantasy – at least the stuff I consider “good.” Because sometimes, a story set somewhere or somewhen completely imaginary actually has something to say about current events on what David likes to call “Sol 3.”
Can’t wait for new episodes of Stargate and Atlantis. David can’t wait for new episodes of Battlestar Galactica. We also are looking forward to seeing the Firefly episodes on SciFi, even though we already own the DVD. Which, by the way, is ON SALE.
Yep, we’re geeks, and in July, we’ll be happy geeks.
