PRODUCTION
"We're doing a bit of a weird departure where the president of the U.S. hires a producer/journalist who comes to the S.G.C. to do a documentary on what happens there. Ostensibly, they are there to film the 1,000th trip through the Stargate, but in fact it's part of this political ploy whereby the president is on his way out. He's finished his second term and basically realises the Stargate programme is going to go public at some point and wants to have some say in the manner in which it is portrayed. At the same time he wants his view to be presented as an impartial document and hires this hard-hitting journalist whom he thinks will be able to do the job."
(Executive producer Michael Greenburg, in an interview with Cult Times magazine [special issue #26])
"This guy is sort of intense, intelligent and a hard-nosed journalist and we're not sure how he is going to portray our heroes. It's all told from the point of view of the camera crew, who are, in fact, not allowed to film any of the ongoing current activities and just end up doing interviews. There is one scene where our journalist really grills Carter about her relationship with Colonel O'Neill. Whether she answers the question or not, just to see Carter squirm in that situation will be a lot of fun."
(Executive producer Robert C. Cooper, in an interview with Cult Times magazine [special issue #26])
"Firefly's Adam Baldwin guested on the show, appearing in the late season two part 'Heroes.' Sitting in the room watching the dailies, we were blown away by his performance (while Adam was almost literally blown away by the plethora of explosives director Andy Mikita set up for one unbelievable sequence). Word from the set was that Adam loved doing the show. Without a doubt, we'd love to have him back."
(Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi, in his GateWorld blog)
